Imperial Examinations: A Tyrant Clan Spoils Its Way to Raising a Young Female Top Scholar

[Female Disguise for the Imperial Exams] [The Whole Clan's Darling] [The Entire Village Puts on an Act] [Childhood Sweethearts] [Lighthearted Ensemble Comedy]

Transmigrated into a bandit den, she is the only girl in the clan for three generations!

To escape the cruel military-household law that would force her into a marriage with a border soldier at fourteen, the old patriarch reports her as a boy. The entire clan supports Eleven as she takes the imperial exams and brings honor to the family!

When a great Confucian scholar and the fastidious county magistrate make a surprise home visit, the tattooed, burly villagers hurry to hide their huge cleavers, then strike delicate poses with their pinkies raised and recite poetry in the fields: "Goose, goose, goose, necks curved to the sky, chopping..."

The county magistrate's eyes practically pop out: [These people look like bandits. How do they quote nothing but the classics as soon as they open their mouths?!]

The Grand Tutor sheds tears of joy: "The Lu clan is truly a village of benevolent and righteous gentlemen, just like those of ancient times!"

While everyone else relies on rote memorization to write policy essays, Lu Shiyi gets a live lesson from the ancestors of her entire clan!

Only her classmate Xie Xuandu, a noble young master from the capital with severe cleanliness issues, looks at his sweet and delicate "junior brother" and spends every day blushing to the ears, doubting himself: "I study the sages' classics. How could I harbor improper thoughts toward my junior brother?"

Later, when he accidentally discovers she is a woman, the dignified crown prince snaps his account book shut on the spot. "Madam, just focus on becoming the top scholar. Whoever dares question you, I'll hand you a knife!"
