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 pretty good so far, but the third family has already helped make money. For the farmers, they are still not satisfied with just two or three taels a year. Will they not separate the family when the third family gets better and better, and will they always rely on the elderly to supplement it? [What]
This book is well written. As a reader of this book, I like it very much, especially the previous storyline, which is fascinating and very interesting. It makes people want to stop watching it and want to keep watching it. The author will update soon, I can't wait. This book is well written, but there are a few things that need to be noted. First, passing the Tongsheng examination has just entered the class of scholars, and has not yet reached the level of a squire giving money and a shop. This is usually only possible after passing the examination, or at least becoming a scholar. Second, cattle were an important working tool in ancient times. They could not be slaughtered at will in any dynasty, so there would be no beef-related food.
It's great. I'm following it and adding it to my bookshelf. I'm looking forward to the follow-up.
I think it's okay, but why do you write your age so young? A five-year-old scholar? Damn it
After embarking on the official career, how to write well is an area where many time-traveling Internet writers show their timidity. After entering the official career in this book, he did not embark on the core strategy of rebelling, becoming emperor, or participating in the replacement of the royal throne. He still continued to "climb the mountain" from a bottom perspective very steadily.
It's just that there are a lot of noble people, and it feels like many of the people we chat with are not of the same age.
This book more realistically restores the hardships of the imperial examination system, and also reflects various human affairs incidents in officialdom. It can be used as a casual reading book. The characters are very realistic and worth reading.
Very interesting, the author will continue to do so
When will the family be separated?
The book is very good and the writing is very detailed.
