No Romance, Imperial Exam Stories, No Cross-Dressing, Preferably Starting in Childhood
I want books like The Farmer's Imperial Exam Journey: My Dad Turns Out to Be the Ultimate Study Machine. Why are imperial exam novels almost always about women disguised as men? I'm okay with a woman becoming a man, but I can't handle an imperial exam story where she's just pretending to be one!

I want books like "The Rural Lad’s Steady Climb in Ancient Times". Are there any realistic stories about the imperial exams? I don’t want the protagonist to pass after just one exam or get in easily.

This is a high-quality imperial examination essay, with routines but not too rigid. The character settings are relatively reasonable, and there are no huge golden fingers. The logic is clear and the characterization is relatively full. It is considered a masterpiece on this platform.
Nice! I feel that the study life and examination situations of the protagonist in the article are more in line with ancient literati, and do not deliberately serve the plot. 👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍
Wonderfully written, worth reading 😍, recommended, the only regret is that it is not enough to read
How to say it? This book is what I have always wanted to read. The protagonist is not like the male protagonists I have seen before. He is the first in everything without much effort. The male protagonist in this book has always taken it step by step. The plot is very smooth and there are not so many unreasonable behaviors. Recommended
It's really well written! I feel it is very considerate, why is it only 9.0!!! I'm dizzy. As soon as I finished praising this book for its practicality, I was shocked. Opening a lingerie store in ancient times?? Too explosive
The three views are well written and very upright, but I don't know why no one reads them.
This book is very well written. Xu Xingfeng can persist in realizing his ideals and take care of his family. Let the family progress together and become an ancient aristocratic family. And use his knowledge and talents to benefit the general public. This is the correct way for people who time travel. The author writes very well. I like reading this kind of works and hope that better works will appear!
This is a harmonious imperial examination paper, without any clumsiness. It is very beautiful.
The writing is very good, and there are not so many dark plots. Come on, the author. I suggest you write some poems and songs.
Very well written! This is a book that I have read more recently. I cried when I saw the chapters where the old man was seriously ill 😢 I especially miss my mother who passed away a year ago! I wouldn't be that sad if I could reach 90. When I am old, I can no longer bear to see separation and death. It's a pity that my childhood classmate named Zeng Ruiran was not clamoring to marry Xu Xingfeng's sister, so why did he fail to do so? And my sister-in-law is married to Wang Si. Didn't she give a lot of dowry to the shop, so why is her life so difficult? I actually like the first half of the story, about getting better step by step through hard work and the part about winning the imperial examination through hard work.
