Historical Fiction! The Characters Must Have Brains!!

Are there stories where a modern person transmigrates back to ancient times and uses their profession to make a difference? Like a doctor who transmigrates to the past and advances medicine within the limits of the era, or a modern special forces expert who transmigrates to ancient times and builds an army using modern ideas. Or just invent penicillin or something. From the start, they pull out an AK-47.

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.

Imperial-Examination Stories About Scholars From Poor Families

I’ve been seriously looking for books about impoverished scholars taking the imperial exams, but none of them quite satisfy me. The writing is actually good, but the characters are too meek. Are there any with strong personalities, where people give as good as they get? It drives me crazy when characters swallow their grievances just because of gossip or the pressure of their elders’ status and family ties.
