Hey, Wake Up, You've Been Ranked

　　It's been peaceful ever since the end of the Orange Prince's corruption case. Actually it's been so boring, I've got nothing to do that I'm panicking.

　　I couldn't ask for more.

　　You must understand that being free at home and being free with nothing to do at work are two different things.

　　Being free and doing nothing at home is a waste of your life.

　　Sitting around doing nothing at work and still getting paid however, is the greatest bliss in the world.

　　I did everything I could to get the best compensation possible for getting hurt in the line of duty. I avoided every s.h.i.+ft I could skip, every street I didn't have to patrol and every job I could avoid. Su Xiao always lectured me when he returned, and Tang Ye was always looking at me resentfully to ask: "Are we going to duel tonight?"

　　Of course, I covered myself with my blanket so I wouldn't have to see anything. Hey! Who said I'm doing lewd stuff under the blankets?! I heard you!

　　But I must credit the three doctors as their treatments really helped. They diagnosed me as being poisoned with the Five Venoms Divine Water mixed with some other types of venom. Fortunately for me, the venom didn't enter the fatal zones in my body or I'd be cold in the ground.

　　I did everything I could to get them to prescribe me some Saussurea involucrata and other similar types of expensive herbs, but those three doctors were as stingy as I am. They wouldn't give me anything other than red bean-paste to invigorate my spleen and replenish my qi.

　　To compensate for it, I snuck into the warehouse and stole three jugs of Laojiao*. They tasted absolutely fantastic!

　　My only regret is the box of gold. I heard Boss Shen shared it with the new constables after the gold was washed. What a waste…

　　I've been flipping through Liu Shan Men's versions of the Black and White Reflection in my room the last few days. I easily learnt about the system regulating warriors of the royal court.

　　Liu Shan Men, the Qilin Guards and the emperor's entourage aren't regulated by the royal court's orthodox regulation system. Boss Shen inherited her father's t.i.tle as an A-rank warrior, but that only affects her treatment, not her power and rights. She is only permitted to regulate members of Liu Shan Men. The same applies for the captain of the Qilin Guards. Sure, he's a hot-shot everywhere he goes, but he's only permitted to regulate the Qilin Guards.

　　However, the universal system used to govern warriors by the royal court is fairly rich.

　　The areas that officials govern usually have some sort power, groups and individuals from the pugilistic world active there. Without a strong warrior from the royal court to a.s.sist them, things can get tough for them, so you can imagine how they are treated by those officials.

　　The measure they use for measuring a warrior's capabilities is none other the Liu Shan's Elite Rankings. The officials will start paying attention to you once you're ranked, and even ask you to deal with issues in the martial world in the area that they govern. But along with the s.h.i.+t and tiring jobs…

　　The good part is, I'm always bludging work and avoiding my s.h.i.+fts, so I won't get ranked. As I was considering whether I should refill my cup or not after my last drink, someone knocked on my door from outside.
