Imperial Exam Comeback: From Poor Scholar to the Emperor’s Disciple

Wang Lei, a poor student majoring in modern history, dies suddenly during an exam and transmigrates into Li Goudan, a penniless scholar in the Great Jing Dynasty. His father died young, his mother is frail, and he is saddled with an arranged marriage that is on the verge of falling through: his betrothed is Su Wan'er, the daughter of the former county magistrate. The villagers laugh at him for dreaming of marrying above his station when he cannot even pass the imperial exams. Even the original owner spent his time sneaking peeks at erotic books, and failed the lowest-level scholar exam three years in a row.
