Real Political Intrigue Fiction: Nothing Shallow or Brain-Burning, That’s My Taste
Reading this will make you wonder whether you have a brain. Highly, highly recommended. Everyone is smart, and the foreshadowing runs throughout the whole story. Anyway, I didn't understand a thing. It's just satisfying from start to finish. All I can say is the author's writing is insanely good.

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!

In the imperial examination and farming novels, many of the protagonists meet the best relatives in the early stage, and they endure it until they are in high school. Many times I think, can't I just kill Mi Mi? The main character in this article is good, he can be ruthless and doesn't drag his feet.
This is a rare good book that I have read recently, or a rare good book that travels through ancient times. The protagonist has real humanity, real feelings, and real thoughts; the storyline is coherent and ups and downs, not bloody or mysterious, so it is slightly exaggerated but reasonable.
Why does a very good book have a low score? It is another kind of time travel, completely relying on the brain of the male protagonist. It is a story about increasing intelligence step by step. It is good-looking. The IQ is online. It is not an idiot or ordinary time-travel novel. It is good-looking!
I have read many novels that are similar to those in which people change their destiny through time travel and rebirth through imperial examinations, but this novel is innovative in its plot. The story has ups and downs and constant reversals. It not only makes people have the urge to raise their fists in anger, but also makes people use conspiracy to plot revenge. It is very exciting. I am looking forward to the exciting content in the future!
Beautiful, but rated too low. The author has rich historical knowledge and brilliant literary talent, but all the characters have distinct personalities. There are farming, entrepreneurship, palace fighting, power and infrastructure, family and country feelings, love and hatred. The plot has twists and turns, is exciting and exciting, and the ending is really unexpected. The life of the eldest princess is really sad. Beautiful, very beautiful. My favorite part is the part where the male protagonist and a few friends work hard to take the imperial examination together in his youth. It is full of warmth, friendship and vigorous strength. The second part is about building a flower city, which is also very interesting. My favorite character is Mr. Hang. He is a completely invisible male protagonist. He is so perfect. I give it a thumbs up. Come on, look forward to the new work. The author's knowledge is really broad. The story is written with ups and downs, clear structure, multi-dimensional description, complicated hidden lines, clear grudges, and only a sigh after the truth comes out. An old eunuch takes on the role of a poor boy and goes all out to change the fate of his family. Such a beautiful novel actually scored less than 9 points. This old bookworm stayed up late to read it and wished he could become the Thousand-Armed Guanyin and give it tens of millions of five-stars.
It's really good. Except for the protagonist's father being too stupid and filial in the beginning, and the fact that many of the family's heirs have so many names that I can't even remember their names, and in Chapter 199, I thought the cute little heroine received the lunch box, everything else is remarkable. Overall, it's a good book and worth reading. I gave up after Chapter 470, I don't like the copycat thing, I wrote too much
I have finally discovered that the scoring of male videos seems to be more stringent than that of female videos. I read this article without missing a chapter. This is what I think the imperial examination essay should be like. No matter whether you are a modern person or a native in your previous life, the imperial examination requires hard study and study, and you also need to practice calligraphy hard. If you want to be at the top of the pyramid. To be more advanced, you need more resources such as books and other resources with famous teachers and connections, as well as your own wisdom, experience and insights. Instead of just reading a few popular books recommended by children and scholars for two years behind closed doors, without asking for advice or practicing calligraphy, you can completely crush the ancients who have spent a lot of resources to train the ancients for more than ten years. The male protagonist of this article is extremely smart. In his previous life, he was the leader of a great eunuch who lived through two dynasties. In order to accompany the emperor, he learned all kinds of knowledge, understood high-end tactics, and also experienced counterattacks by low-level characters. In this life, he studied hard and studied hard. He accumulated a lot of connections and resources by relying on his intelligence, knowledge and personal ability. He finally got the top prize. This was not an exaggeration of just a few yuan. After all, other students were also very good. This is very true 👍 and the male protagonist is not pedantic and unbecoming of a moral saint. He is really ruthless. He must avenge himself. If he can't avenge him temporarily, he will make trouble first so that his enemies can take care of themselves. He will not expose himself due to his arrogance. He is especially prepared for danger in times of peace and will definitely nip the danger in the cradle... It is real, rigorous but also exciting! The author is great 👍
The whole story is resourceful and thoughtful, from not pursuing an official career to going for the imperial examination, and it is overly foreshadowing. Compared with other novels, we can see the author's intentions. The only fly in the ointment is that the power struggle in the middle is flawed. How can such a young child leave no trace even if he commits evil deeds? Moreover, if a child threatens an adult with a knife, he can completely counterattack the moment he kidnaps the person. After all, you are less than 10 years old at that time. In addition, you make money so fast. You made thousands of taels by supplying raw material nectaries. How much does the corresponding snack shop make? This is still in a county town, not a prefectural city. There is also a bright spot in this article. It is well written to deal with Yang Zhi borrowing a knife to kill someone, and using rumors to create rumors that he is getting married. The overall novel is okay.
Good-looking, good-looking, good-looking. The plot is compact and exciting. It makes people want to keep watching.
The full text is really wonderful! ! ! Traveling through time as a eunuch, he is full of wits, talents and characters are of the highest quality, the main plot is striving for progress, and friendship accompanies him on the road to success. The experiences he experiences are meticulous and fascinating, the writing is smooth, and the ending is perfect.
