Recommend Good Imperial Exam Fics With a Morally Upright Male Lead, Whether He Comes From a Poor or Aristocratic Family

I don't want one where they get married right at the beginning. I want it to start when they're children.

160Books1.9MViews1dUpdated

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!

Any Ancient Imperial-Examination Novels with the Protagonist Reborn as a Baby?

Looking for books similar to A Guide to Survival for an Ancient-Era Concubine’s Son. It’s always farm boys taking the imperial exams. Are there any about a son from a prestigious family taking the exams, someone like a concubine’s son?

Imperial Exams, Rural Life, Children, Smart Characters, No Dumbing Down, and Real History

Ideally, something set in the Ming dynasty. That one about Zhu Qiniu was pretty good.

This Poor Daoist Is at the End of His Rope. Can Anyone Grant Me a Good Book?

Is life even worth living when there's nothing to read? I'll trade 50 years of being single for all you fellow Daoists coming through for me. (A good person stays single for life.)

Looking for Good Farming Stories With Smart Characters

Why do farming novels always have princes, heirs, and royal sons? Can't we have something cozier, without a prince or heir as the male lead, and without him constantly having to save people?

Begging for All Kinds of Novels from Douyin Ads 💥

Ancient-Era Farming Stories About Buying Servants and Building a Cozy, Comfortable Life

Any genre is fine. I just want a story where the protagonist can build houses, buy land, and hire servants in ancient times, then live a happy, cozy life as a little landlord. I especially love when they hire servants who feel they've found a wonderful master! Fellow readers, please send me recommendations.

Preferably starting at an academy, with no angst and a golden finger. Most importantly, it has to be completed. Any recommendations, ladies?~~

282Books9.3MViews2dUpdated

Looking for Stories About Ordinary People, Street Life, and Rural Life in Ancient Times

No harems or inner-court stories with emperors, princes, princess consorts, or the like later on. I just want stories about ordinary little people.

394Books3.7MViews2dUpdated

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.

204Books8.1MViews3dUpdated

Looking for Completed Stories About Someone Who Studies from Childhood and Works Their Way Through the Imperial Examinations

Looking for stories with few golden fingers, where the protagonist succeeds through hard work and studying alone. Either the protagonist is reborn or was born in ancient times, and works their way up through the imperial exams. No romance or one-on-one romance are both fine.

170Books2.9MViews3dUpdated

Highly Rated Imperial-Examination and Historical Novels, Reborn Stories Are Fine, Completed Works Only

Either a male or female lead is fine. No golden finger, but the protagonist should have a space. I really can’t stand protagonists with too many plot-armoring advantages.
