Looking for a Wish-Fulfillment Alternate History Novel About Someone Who Transmigrates
Ideally, something like "The Carefree Little Scholar" or "The Best House Husband". The protagonist brings modern knowledge to the past and plays the pig to eat the tiger. He just wants to take it easy and coast through life, but the times won't let him.
Ancient Setting, Imperial Exams, Not from a Poor Family, No System, Transmigration
The protagonist should have sound values, pass the imperial examinations, and devote himself to serving the people. He should be decisive while still considering the greater good. One female lead only. He should take revenge without harming the innocent. When discussing poetry, he shouldn’t come across as pretentious. Success should be hard-won: others shouldn’t be crushed by a cheat just because they’ve studied for ten years. The story should explore big ideas.
Looking for Historical Novels About Someone Who Transmigrates, No System
No System, please. Ideally, the protagonist keeps a low profile and builds up their strength early on.

It's rare that I follow a book this far. This is a good book. After reading Sleeping with the Wine Girl, I suddenly understood the word "romantic" in the title. The book is very good, but I don't like to read harem novels. The only harem novel that I can persist in reading is Banana's "The Son-in-law"
Who can read this more, let the foreigner next door know and think I look down on it, ten thousand chapters more, ten thousand chapters per person. 🤭🤭🤭🤭
Sorry for the title of this book. . I like harem novels, but I really can't find any harem novels that can compare to The Ultimate Servant. Who has a high-quality harem novel?
It looks quite comfortable, not particularly exaggerated, and there are some emotions between men and women, all written well. The only thing is that I think there are too many beauties.
I don't know why it only has an 8.5, But this book is really good-looking. The author's thinking and writing are clear, the writing style is novel, and it's very interesting. I have read a lot of books, and I think this one deserves a 9.3 Or above. Why can't I find the reminder?
I have read a lot of these kinds of books. In fact, I prefer to read about modern things in ancient times. For example, I read a book before that copied modern musical instruments, songs, and even theaters into ancient times. In ancient times, modern clothes, cosmetics, and concerts were sold. It was quite interesting.
It's well written, the plot is touching, and it's a good book worth recommending.
The writing is quite wonderful. Each woman has a story line. The only shortcoming is that there are too many women, so that they all serve as backgrounds later. Overall, it is quite wonderful. The son-in-law travels back in time, relies on modern talents and learning, recruits beauties, and conquers the world. It is very exciting.
The writing is good, with a balance between strength and softness, without being too aggressive or too aggressive. The story has a main line and the plot development is logical. It is a rare opening that instantly kills most of the historical time travel novels. Looking forward to a breakthrough in the most difficult later part. . .
It's very interesting, it uses modern knowledge, and it's a thought that every time traveler should have. It's not like other time travelers, it's just Liu Xiahui, it's a man, it's not a woman Duoduo! There are so many women in modern life, let alone ancient people!
