[Imperial Exams] [Court Politics] [Farming]
To all you handsome guys out there, the best parts are still to come! This is a slow-burn story!!!
Chen Yan, a modern doctoral student, transmigrated into the body of a farm boy in the Great Sheng Dynasty.
His family had nothing, his parents were simple and honest, and his little sister was so hungry she had grown thin and sallow.
He decided to quietly transform the family...
At three, he “advised” his carpenter father on improving his techniques. At five, he pestered his parents into sending him to school.
He topped the county exam and made a name for himself at the prefectural academy. He crushed the ancients at every turn on the imperial examination path, yet his teacher was always yanking him by the ear and scolding him: “Chen Yan! Your essays are far too unconventional!”
P.S.
One day, in the imperial study, the young emperor slammed his hand on the table and exclaimed as he pointed at Chen Yan’s memorial:
“Just who is this man? He’s solved the problem that’s plagued me for ten years!”
Meanwhile, Chen Yan, newly appointed to the Grand Secretariat, silently grumbled at the crowd of old fossils in court:
“Compared to my advisor’s research group meetings back then... your debating skills are really not up to par.”
[A Friendly Reminder]
This book is also known as “I Use Knowledge to Alleviate Poverty with Precision” and “The Entire Court Is Reviewing My Thesis.” It’s a feel-good, satisfying slice-of-life story. Everyone has their wits about them, and although the heroine appears a little later, she’s no fool.
Come along and follow a poor scholar on his ten-thousand-mile rise from the fields to the imperial court.
