After My Fall as a Treacherous Minister, I Started Over
by Riding A Whale South (骑鲸南去)
Le Wuya's courtesy name was Youque—“all things are imperfect.” He lived by that philosophy: nothing in this world is flawless, so why chase perfection?
Unfortunately, his own “imperfection” went a little too far.
Impeached by the entire court and charged with eighty-two crimes, Le Wuya fell from power overnight. Amid a storm of condemnation, he died of illness in prison at just twenty-nine—thoroughly disgraced and done with life.
Good riddance, he thought. Whoever wants that cursed position can have it.

Le Wuya: “……”
“…And you are?” the man asks eagerly. “Which virtuous minister have I summoned?”
Le Wuya coughs.

Starting over on the path to becoming prime minister, Le Wuya soon makes an unexpected discovery:
There are countless people who hate him—thousands, in fact. But somehow… there are also those who love him.
