Are there stories where a modern person transmigrates back to ancient times and uses their profession to make a difference? Like a doctor who transmigrates to the past and advances medicine within the limits of the era, or a modern special forces expert who transmigrates to ancient times and builds an army using modern ideas. Or just invent penicillin or something. From the start, they pull out an AK-47.

Looking for High-Quality Historical Fiction. No Mindless Power Trips or Brain-Dead Plotting
I want high-quality historical fiction that’s engaging and doesn’t dumb things down or rely on brainless plots. It can be satisfying, but don’t treat readers like idiots. No stories like the one where the protagonist fools Cao Cao’s quartermaster about the provisions from the start, or those where a literati protagonist suddenly has the strength of a tyrant. They’re unoriginal and mindless...
Rated 9.8 on Tomato! A Deep, Brilliant Read! Read It Twice or More! A Masterpiece! Add It to Your Shelf!!!

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!

It's super exciting. The name Qi Wenyu is really correct. He has never been blushing with anyone in his life. Except for going to the battlefield, he can be regarded as gentle and gentle all his life. For the sake of the Qian Dynasty and the people of the world, he worked hard for national affairs. He never assumed a superior attitude because he was beyond the knowledge of others, nor did he detach himself from the secular world and pretend to be aloof. He blended in naturally and even made me forget his original identity. The image of the protagonist is very rich, and it is very different from other books on the imperial examination. It does not stop at the time of naming the gold list, nor does it briefly describe the great achievements after that, but writes in detail the promotion process after becoming an official. Maybe it's because I'm more emotional now, and I can't bear to see the people in the book leaving one after another. I know that these people are illusory, but I'm still sad. Finally, the protagonist's enlightened family tradition has been passed down from generation to generation, making the Qi family a thousand-year inheritance, a large family, and the families of his classmates and friends that have continued into the 21st century, which is also touching. Recommended!!! 🌸🌸🌸
So far, this is the top-ranked imperial examination article I have read. It is worth 9.5 Points or more. It will make people interested in reading. The only regret is that it is not enough. I hope the author will update more 😍five-star praise🤩🤩🤩
A very good novel about the imperial examination. There are no weird relatives or friends. The family is harmonious and the three views are studying hard... The male protagonist is smart and ambitious 👍 👍 👍 👍 👍
Very nice, I like it. The plot progresses step by step, with ups and downs, making people watch it endlessly. The heroine is gentle and virtuous, which is very good. Although the male protagonist is a time traveler, he is not described in an exaggerated manner. He is quite motivated and will not be offensive to read. If you like the baby, you can recommend it...
The plot of the story is very smooth and echoes back and forth. Each character is very clear and makes people want to continue to understand it, especially the male protagonist's several teenage friends who have been extended to middle age. There is no big male protagonist plot but the echoes of the other characters of the male protagonist are just right. I have read it five or six times.
Very good, the plot is not procrastinating. I hope the male protagonist will be given a daughter-in-law as his wife later on! I don't want the male protagonist to marry a daughter born from a concubine in the future, which always feels weird. Hope to meet the right person.
It is a rare top-notch book among the post-time-travel imperial examination books. It has some flaws in its emotional handling, but it touches very little on this aspect. I just don't like reading about romance, so it's just like fairy grass for me.
I give this novel 5 stars as a novel for women, but unfortunately I can't stand it as a reader of a male channel. I would like to remind readers of a male channel that although the male protagonist has a normal sexual orientation, there are plots such as a classmate who has a crush on a lifelong unmarried person, a prostitute, and other plots.
This book is one of the many good works in the ancient soul-traveling category that I have read on Tomato. The three views are correct, the characters in the story are relatively delicate, and the ending is something everyone is happy to see. Although the writing in the later period is a bit perfunctory, the flaws are not concealed, and it is considered a good book.
It's really good. The characters in the story are vividly depicted, and the ending is well planned. This is the best imperial examination novel I've ever read. The 1V1 is very good, and there is no obvious villain.
