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.
I've Read for Over 10,000 Hours and I'm Still in a Reading Slump. Please Recommend Something

High-Quality Farming Stories: Build Strong Walls, Stockpile Grain, and Claim the Throne Later, While Developing Firearms in Ancient Times
No CP!!! 🈚CP!!! Thank You
No-CP novels, with either a male or female protagonist, as long as there's no romance. Fantasy, power fantasy, or quick transmigration are all fine. The protagonist should be strong, but not the kind who shows up already invincible, declares themselves the greatest, and treats everyone else like an ant.

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.

I really like that the male protagonist doesn't mind his own business!! The male protagonist's thinking is really clear. In other books, the male protagonist is constantly helping relatives and brother-in-law... What should I do if things don't work out? 💕 If you don't feel grateful, you'll be in trouble! You need to draw clear boundaries on some things with relatives! Otherwise, others will think you deserve it!
In ancient times, people who studied martial arts and studied literature had a good body and could take the imperial examination. No matter what dynasty they were, money was definitely indispensable. In ancient and modern times, if you had money and became an official, you would not take detours.
It's okay for the time being, but I feel like the protagonist is too innocent. Whether he can survive for such a long time depends on the author's mood.
Okay, come on, the characters are capable and not pretentious, the plot is plain and pleasant, and the characters are vivid. I hope the author will keep up the good work.
A very interesting imperial examination novel. The protagonist was born as an only son in a wealthy family. He didn't have to worry about money when studying. I haven't seen a character like this in a long time. The protagonist's hard work, combined with the knowledge and intelligence of two generations, made him the number one scholar in the officialdom. It is a more orthodox officialdom novel. I haven't seen such a wonderful novel in a long time. It is more pragmatic and in line with reality 🙂🙂🙂😄😄😄
In ancient times, in front of everyone outside the imperial examination room, artificial respiration was given to other candidates. The little poisonous spots in front were compared with each other. It was considered an emergency.
It's nice to look at, but there are too many top quality ones, which made my breasts hurt for a while.
The writing is quite good, but sometimes it can't be too leisurely. It would be better to add a little intrigue, and the protagonist's depiction is more delicate.
It's quite satisfactory and not very humane, but I can understand it. After all, they didn't help him, but sometimes it's not a good thing to be too clear about the accounts. 100 Taels of reward for rich people
The writing is good, but the titles are not very elegant, and the character of the protagonist sometimes makes people feel uncomfortable. But overall it's worth watching.
