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

I don't know how the author writes it. I've read too many Zhuangyuan essays. In fact, ordinary people who travel back to ancient times may not necessarily be able to beat the ancient people in the test. What I am more looking forward to is the story of the protagonist who just won the imperial examination and became a county magistrate, and then gradually climbed up to the central power.
The protagonist is diligent and hard-working, unlike other imperial examination papers where he ranked first in the first test and did not get the top prize in the end, but in this way it makes people really see the life of the ancient imperial examination people. Although not as dazzling as the top pick, it is still a shining star and worth seeing.
He was considered good in the imperial examination essays, and he finished the exam quickly. There were no outrageous incidents such as doing business when he was two, three or five or six years old, and he had no messy relatives. But there are still common problems in novels. After the protagonist arrives, a private school is opened by a Tongsheng. Three classmates are admitted to the Tongsheng, and they are all young. After Pigfoot went to school, he only had one daughter for more than ten years, and the second aunt who could not get pregnant had a son. After the protagonist was admitted to the scholar, the protagonist's mother also had another child. It's normal to have children, but in the exam, according to the ranking, the protagonist should not be admitted as a scholar, even though he is at the bottom, after all, there are so many counties.
It's okay, but the dialogue and some expressions are a bit too colloquial, not very natural and smooth, the plot is relatively bland, the male protagonist has a golden finger (lucky value, but the sense of existence is very weak), it is not a six-yuan pass routine, the male protagonist is not in the top few every time, it is more realistic, there is an uncle who has not separated from the family, but he is not the best, the family relationship is still quite good After reading it, the imperial examination went very smoothly. Although I was ranked last, I passed it in one attempt. The imperial examination did not show any advantages of modern people. However, considering that I was admitted to Jinshi at the age of about 15, it was already very impressive. The lucky gold finger basically did not appear behind it. The language is very modern, and "really" appears too frequently. There is a single female protagonist who only appears in the last few chapters. After taking the imperial examination, it will be over in about ten chapters. Although it is an imperial examination paper, the majority of it is due to the family's shortcomings and trivial matters in daily life, and the imperial examination does not account for much.
This imperial examination article is pretty good. The clan is united and the family is harmonious. Although the protagonist may be a bit ordinary, he is also working hard to make progress. He is young and handsome and passed the imperial examination. It makes sense to be a beauty prospector. After all, he is the protagonist [Thinking]
The ordinary life of a large family, and the male protagonist's journey to the imperial examination went smoothly. He was not ranked high, almost at the bottom, but he passed every time. Later, he stayed in Beijing as an official and married a female protagonist of a military general family.
After reading Chapter 133, this book is a slow-burner, so far so mediocre. The male protagonist Chen Ping'an accidentally has his soul penetrated into the body of ancient Sanmao (Chen Qingyuan). Because he was the only boy in the family, he planned to take the imperial examination route. At present, both Tongsheng and Xiucai have passed. Currently attending a county school. Looking forward to the update🌸
The imperial examination essays are quite good, especially the family ties are really good here, and every bit of life is also very warm. Not bad, keep up the good work!
Finished reading on February 7, 2025. He is an ordinary person in the imperial examination. Although he has a lucky value, he is relatively down-to-earth and has a harmonious family. Although the second aunt is a bit petty, it is a more realistic portrayal. Moreover, the old man does not favor boys over girls. The male protagonist does not feel that he wants to change the world. He just wants to live a better life and work hard on the scientific examination. It is worth reading [Like]
It's good to watch. The protagonist's family is hard-working and kind. There are no tops or scumbags. The family lives in harmony and there are no too many gold fingers.
