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.

The story is okay. The male protagonist did not think of ways to make money before studying like other time-travelers. Instead, he went to study when his family conditions were very poor, but he later became very good to his parents and sisters. From being a prisoner to becoming an emperor, there is not much written about it, and the development is too fast. It feels like it is just an instant from being a capable minister in troubled times to a hero in troubled times. It is a little uncomfortable, and it would be better if there is more foreshadowing.
It is not the usual formulaic novel. The identity of the aunt is also set up to add suspense, and her character is very exploratory. It is rare for each person to have a full and distinct personality, so I have always wondered whether Er Niang is going to be a good or bad person, because I can see her scheming. Next is something purely subjective that I personally don't like. In the past, the male protagonist's description of his feelings for his aunt was particularly intense and straightforward, which was a bit jarring. In the past, adult modern people felt that they should maintain basic caution. Also, since he loves his aunt so much, he wanted to repay him. However, there is no description of the male protagonist's care and help for the aunt's bad appearance. The male protagonist's status in the family should be able to gradually change the aunt's status, which will at least be better, but there is no. After all, he is the only male. After all, he is the only male. It is okay to tell the fourth sister that he is kissing the male protagonist. It's okay to at least ask around. Although I don't like the Holy Father, doesn't it mean that the male protagonist is very close to his aunt? [Facepalm] Furthermore, the progress of the imperial examination is very fast. Maybe the author is not a major in the imperial examination, which is understandable. I have read more than 20 chapters, and the author's writing is good. Come on!
It's pretty but too little. Realistic and appropriate. Finally, it is not a time-travelling child who made a fortune from glass sugar salt brine. The protagonist is indeed good to his family and makes up for his sister and mother. Starting off as a single heroine, the next step is to make money to buy a house in the capital and live in officialdom.
The male protagonist traveled through time and later took part in the imperial examination. His grades were always among the best, earning glory for his family and several sisters. Although the marriage had some twists and turns, it was ultimately successful. Although his official career had its ups and downs, when he later became regent, he was jealous of the emperor, so he simply replaced him and became emperor. His father gave birth to seven daughters in a row, but suffered from having no heirs. He once sold three daughters in exchange for the male protagonist and adopted him as his adopted son. Although this father acted coldly, he only treated him sincerely, and was eventually killed, which is really regrettable.
It's very well written, and the ending is also written in the extra chapter. There is a slight difference between the extra story and the main text. For example, the main text says that the male protagonist bought it, but the extra story says that the child was taken from the fleeing couple. But it's harmless. Recommended to watch, very good
The more I read, the better it gets. I really like reading ancient imperial examination essays about small people. It's a must-have!
There are not many fancy words, so I read it in one breath. It feels different from other imperial examination papers.
The author's writing is very artistic and very literary, like a publication. At the moment, the first half does not feel suitable for Tomato. Overall, the writing is still very good [currently in progress]
It's very good-looking. The male protagonist starts his career first and then marries a beautiful girl.
Very good, good, good
