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?

Imperial Exam Novels Like Comrade Sun Shan: Sound Logic, No Overpowered Golden Finger
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. Keep the romance minimal, and don't make the golden finger ridiculously overpowered. 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.

Imperial Exam Novel About a Poor Scholar: Male Lead With No Connections, No Transmigration, No System, One Female Lead
The heroine should be the legitimate daughter of a marquis’s household or a princess, and the hero should be aloof. I haven’t found anything on any site. I know I’m asking for a lot, but please! 🙏🏻🙏🏻🙏🏻

It's tied, although it's a bit exaggerated, but it's pretty good to watch. The male protagonist knows more things and is considered a little versatile. The author has two points that he probably forgot about the previous plot. 1: Yuan Hua and Brother Wu did not pass the scholar examination, and then went directly to the county to study, and then it was time to take the imperial examination. 2: The age of the protagonist. He took the government examination when he was 12 years old. Half a year later, he was 14 years old when I wrote it. It's not too unexpected to meet the heroine (Zhiyu is the heroine, right?) I think it's pretty good even if the flaws don't hide the flaws.
There are very few new ones at the moment, but they are quite interesting. I'll give you five stars first. Also, I mainly want to say that the author, the newly updated articles are usually five to ten chapters a day. This is obviously not enough for you. Remember to update according to the number of chapters of the new article. Also, please make up for what you owe before. The more I write, the more outrageous it becomes. The child prodigy is not so exaggerated. A county magistrate has troubles and still consults with a little baby [covers face] Are you serious? Blame me. Just stop here. Mark it.
Heard Chapter 303. Time travel novel. The storyline is smooth and the characters are realistic and immersive. It has the experience of a farming novel. There are currently two logical questions: 1. Composing poems without going to school, 2. Writing memorial texts without going to school. Such an excellent poem and such an excellent memorial text, could a peasant boy who did not go to school write it? ! However, overall it is a very good novel, which is above average among similar novels. Don't be a rogue when reading, just send a message and comment.
It's okay. I'm used to good reviews, but there are also some bad points. The golden finger is very open, and you need to read it without thinking. But I just read it for the cool article, so I don't care about it very much. I wrote this comment purely because I was disgusted by Ge Zhiyu. I haven't read the back story and I don't know if she is the female protagonist. If she is the female protagonist, I feel that the author is very similar to my stereotypical male author, because this type of male author likes to write this type of female protagonist and wants to show the delicate and savage female character. The author can clearly write that the female character is curious about the male protagonist and gradually deepens her understanding and exploration, but often in order to advance quickly, the female character will secretly explore the protagonist's privacy without any basis for friendship. She thinks she is very smart and reveals the protagonist's identity. And as a background in ancient times, if the single female protagonist wanted to omit the love line, she could directly be appreciated by a high-ranking elder and matchmaking with a noble girl. After seeing each other and getting married, they would develop a relationship. Marriage first and love later would be more acceptable than an inexplicable female character who desperately explores the male protagonist's privacy and develops a relationship after contact. The main reason is that this type of female character is really easy to write and annoying, which makes me feel uncomfortable even listening to the book😣😣😣But overall I like the plot of the novel. If you like this kind of writing, you should be more thorough. I picked it up directly. I will probably skip Ge Zhiyu's chapter in the future and continue reading.
The article is good at the beginning. The author is getting into the mood as he writes. The writing is silky, with few poisonous points, and the flaws are not hidden. Although it is an imperial examination article, the plot is not too dry. The characters are full of flesh and blood. The author's writing skills are really good. I randomly found an unfinished book and thought about it before reading it. I think I will change the book after reading it. But now I have almost read the latest chapter. I will simply write a review. It is a rare and gentle book on Tomato.
Overall, it's very good to watch, but all the plots are too smooth and natural, and some of the machinations are like playing house. However, it is still very good to read as a brainless novel, just like occasionally the IQ is pressed to the ground and rubbed.
The leader in the imperial examination essay is very well written, but there are some places that are too ruthless. Among them, his fourth uncle's family. Although his fourth uncle sucked the blood of their Lao He family, it is the hope of the old man's family after all. His fourth uncle went astray, but there is still the flesh and blood of Lao He's family. His cousins were sold. Under such circumstances, the protagonist transferred the property The old saying goes that relatives hope for good things, while neighbors hope for trouble. The protagonist is cruel to his four uncles and four aunts, but there is no need to hate everyone. After all, the child was sold when he was still young. Should the protagonist consider being a little tolerant and leave a way for his cousins to survive? The relatives did a great job. I just have a shallow opinion. Don't be angry! [Like][Like][Like]
Still pretty good The single female protagonist Ge, the family is separated, but united and harmonious. There are quite a lot of sensible people. Make a fortune by eating food (chili/pastry), story books, newspapers (printing),... The emperor is young, and his relatives (parallel import queen, Cixi)/princes are involved in politics. In terms of plot shaping, it's generally okay.
Five stars for encouragement. I have read more than 100 chapters. Not to mention winning six or three yuan in a row. I have just started to learn traditional Chinese characters in school. This is written based on three to five thousand chapters. It is too slow to get started and I can't wait. [Sinister smile]
I saw Chapter 294. The previous one was very nice [shy], and then I saw Ge's character. After that, I came to the comment area to find out if she was the heroine. (Everyone said yes) This character really made me feel cold and I couldn't stand it anymore [facepalm]. If she is not, call me and I will come back [facepalm]
