Counterattack Against the Ruined Temple: the Shocking Turnaround of the Poor Scholar
About This Novel
The afterglow of the setting sun shines through the worn window paper onto the cold mud floor of the ruined temple. Li Wenyuan was huddled in the corner. The coarse cloth gown that had been washed white was already covered with dust and stains, and several patches were torn apart from running around for days. He held a yellowed "The Analects of Confucius" tightly in his arms. It was his only luggage and his only sustenance for this trip. He came from a scholarly family, was smart and studious since childhood, and read poetry and books. He came to the capital with the dream of gaining fame and honoring his ancestors in one fell swoop. However, as fate would have it, he failed in this year's imperial examination. Looking at the unfamiliar names on the imperial list, his heart felt like it was falling into an ice cellar. Not only that, he had no relatives in the capital, and all the money he brought had been exhausted. He couldn't even afford to stay in the simplest inn, so he could only live temporarily in this ruined temple.
