The non-literary civil service examination is very difficult, very realistic, and stressful. It is not just a simple matter of having money at home and then embarking on the road to the imperial examination. If you want to change your family through the imperial examination, it is not only necessary to enter an elementary school and have a wife. Especially for a peasant family, there is a lack of resources, literary and political resources. These doors are not open to ordinary people. The protagonist can only obtain some resources through business. It is really realistic, especially when he tries to attach himself to the county prime minister, and the exchange of interests , it's too difficult, and when the county magistrate's son failed the exam because he had a reputation conflict with the academic official, it was even more realistic. His family had to be exploited by officials at all levels to open a braised pork shop. If the protagonist hadn't worked hard to make a living, their shop would not have been able to survive. Being able to drive smoothly is a problem. It's even worse when you think about the protagonist's past life as a man who just passed the college entrance examination. In this life, he started studying under pressure at the age of six. Every time the protagonist couldn't bear the pain of studying, he would get angry and get even worse.
The writing is very good. The only regret is that after the male protagonist began to serve as Jiangling County Magistrate, his brothers and sisters were not mentioned. As everyone knows, the hero's achievements today are all due to his brother's selfless and fearless support and selfless dedication. Without his brother, he would not be what he is today. No matter what, I have to mention my brothers and sisters. In this book, the road to the imperial examination is written in a down-to-earth manner. There is no small three yuan, no sixth yuan, and no top scholar. The male protagonist has no system and relies entirely on himself. Especially before finding a good teacher to give guidance, those eight-part essays really miss the point, let alone understand and write clearly. Later, he met his classmate Zhao Wenjing and then got to know his father, Zhao Xiancheng. The male protagonist only started to improve in his eight-part essay, and he gradually became enlightened. In addition, his mentor introduced him to the academy. He lived up to his mentor's teachings and successfully entered the academy. From then on, he went all the way to the Golden Palace. It is really difficult to be a son of a wealthy family. In addition to money, there are also scarcity of enlightenment education resources in the imperial examination. It is not easy, especially for the male protagonist's brother, who is lame and disabled, raising the male protagonist and his sister, and doing his best to support the male protagonist in taking the imperial examination.
This book is well written, especially the opening chapter describing the male protagonist's journey through the imperial examination, which is fascinating. The author's writing is very literary, and people can't help but read on. However, for some reason, the rating is low. I guess the ending is too hasty, and there is no explanation for the brother and his family. Recommend this article.
This undergraduate examination essay is the most realistic book I have ever read. In ancient times, people's resources and class levels were really there. How could it be so easy for a peasant boy to get the top score in the exam? It is really difficult and dangerous for a peasant boy to take the scientific examination. Fortunately, he has the memory of his past life. With his age, he also stumbled on this single-plank bridge. It is inseparable from his own hard work. It is a good article.
Nice. Lightness means warmth. Although his parents passed away, his brothers and sisters are very sensible. The elder brother is calm and the younger brother is smart. My sister is cute and sensible. I've only read a few chapters, but it's still good. Recommend
This is a slow-burning book that is written in a real and delicate way. It shows the author's good intentions and the plot is basically reasonable. The imperial examination is not easy to achieve and the road is also very difficult.
I started reading the second book "Nongmen Qingyun" which gave me a five-point praise after reading only a few chapters. This book has a good story, but the writing is a bit jerky. I feel that the author wrote it "carefully". But I really admire the author's visible progress in just two works. In the second book, it is obvious that my skills have come out, so I continue to pursue articles. I'd give it five points. Although it's not as good as the second one, it's much better than Tomatoes' nonsense.
The imperial examination essays are pretty good, but a little lacking. I recommend 🤭
True love exists in the world. Good brother, good brother, good sister, my heart is touched
This novel is more realistic and not as omnipotent as those time-travelers.
