Looking for books similar to "I, Sun Shan, and the Imperial Examinations". I want a story focused on studying for the exams, followed by genuinely working to improve the country.

The exams are fiercely competitive, after all, and with a different body of knowledge, someone who time-travels back isn't likely to sweep all six exams with ease.

Translated by Google Translate




























































































The number of words is not much, and it is quickly tied up. These are among the top three imperial examination papers I have read (along with "Wang Maoping" and "Sun Shan" who are currently reading). The author has a strong foundation in language skills in imperial examinations and does not have a family member who is a Tai Chi graduate. I hope that the writing will be better and better in the future. Never appear an 8-year-old Tongsheng or a 9-year-old scholar. You must know that in ancient times, 50 years old was still less than a Jinshi. Looking forward to it, it would be better if it was updated three times a day. So far, everyone will definitely not lose money if they join the trap.
Well, how should I put it, it feels like I just finished high school and then started writing novels. At that time, I had the richest vocabulary accumulation and the lowest number of words. In fact, the writing was quite good, but there were too many descriptions of details in the article, which made me feel like I was reading a novel. This essay has the same feeling as when I wrote essays before. I don't know how to describe it. It's very vague, with gorgeous words and empty content. It contains a lot of detailed descriptions, but in fact it can be written in one stroke, because this is a novel, not a beautiful article. Doubtful, there is the possibility of using AI
After reading so many novels, I finally came across one with an IQ. 🥺 If I don't read more like this, my IQ will be lowered. The author is very talented in writing. 👍 I like to read this kind of logical, intelligent and interesting novels. You are the first author among all the articles written by Tomato. It would be better if you can update more 🤭
This book is really beautiful. It has been with me for several night shifts. I don't think it sounds comfortable to read because it is an imperial examination text and many of it are in classical Chinese. It sounds more patient than it looks and will not be glanced at. The male protagonist has relatives and friends in his life, a loving wife, a beloved son and daughter, and a name that will go down in history (for the people and the country). The most profound part of the article is when the male protagonist goes to the temple with his brothers. The scene where the man asked for a signature in the temple (the master who interpreted the signature bowed and saluted the hero, "The donor is so kind, I thank the donor on behalf of the common people at dawn.") The hero really did it. I always wanted to know why the hero Su Chenan's words were not described. I thought he would let Mrs. Xiao get it, but it turned out that it was not. It was also not described. "One day I will return to the Canglan" that I said when I was young. It was really a pity. The finale where the hero's relatives passed away was really tearful.
I am still looking at the students taking the exam and commenting on the previous content. I used too many conjunctions and changed my career. But, unfortunately, after all, I have written it at least dozens of times. I have a strong sense of articulation when listening to the book. When I heard someone slap me in the mouth, I felt stuck. Many books in the past were written in this way, and the hard-core word count was all negative reviews. The content of the time-traveling imperial examination essays is very different, and making a fortune is similar. The only thing that attracted me is that this book does not have the best relatives, and it can lead the whole village to get rich even if I am still young. When I should study, I should study, and the road is to move forward step by step. If I like a more realistic life, it is worth entering. Continue to listen to the following content. The book stops at chapter 284, and the bloody plot of the heroine falling into the water is still here. One more complaint, this book has at least one "after all", two after all in three sentences, I really can't stand it.
Others are okay, but the author always likes to describe cooking, daily farm life, some rural scenery, and some actions of the protagonist. The descriptions are too detailed 😂 and it feels more like a daily farm novel. The imperial examination is not the main focus, and the pace is relatively slow. If you like this kind of novel, you can read it.
The writing style is thick and smooth, relaxed and moderate, like ink slowly spreading out, and the words are carved and written in a simple and profound way! The story is peaceful and malleable, full of family, friendship, and love. It is a rare masterpiece of Tomato, highly recommended! Highly recommended! Highly recommended!
So far, I feel that the descriptions of family affection, friendship and the emotions between the master and the protagonist make people feel comfortable. It is great that the protagonist is still young and has no forced marriage partner!
This book tells the story of the protagonist who lived two lives and relied on what he learned to change himself, his family, and the world. It is a very light-hearted book that deserves praise! The whole book very smoothly describes every detail of the ancient literati's pursuit of fame, including family relationships, friend relationships, and husband-wife relationships, giving people a good outlook on life and values. Families are more harmonious when their quality of life improves and when there are people to guide them. Friends encourage and help each other, learn from each other and have ideals, goals and motivation, which makes people feel like a spring breeze. Husband and wife need to understand and respect each other, get along with each other on an equal footing, and love and support each other until they grow old. This is a good book, it will not make people feel crazy, and it is a very smooth ancient farming text. In the end, although the plot was described too quickly and it was obvious that the author also wanted to wrap up the story, the result was finally achieved successfully, which is gratifying and congratulatory🎉congratulations🎉 Okay, without further ado, it's a good book and worth reading! [Learned] Also, don't ask me why I just read for 16 hours, because I am a book listener.
After reading eight chapters, I feel pretty good and it makes me want to continue reading. Keep up the good work! The first part was okay, but the later part became more and more literate. It was a bit boring and I couldn't stand it anymore 🤔
