Most authors who write imperial examination novels lack the writing skills to make the exam process convincing. They gloss over the details, unable to even provide the questions, the answers, or the essays, let alone show the examiners grading them. From what I can recall, only a handful of works, like *Reborn Jia Huan*, manage to do it.

Introduction to the book: After a sudden car accident, Xia Ren, a Ph. D. In history and literature, traveled back to the Da Jing Dynasty that had never been recorded in history, and was reborn as a seven-year-old child from a farm family who was dying. His family was impoverished and his family was poor, which could not stop the knowledge and insights accumulated in his mind over two lifetimes. The memory of studying the classics in the past life is as clear as yesterday. The collection of classics and history, the rules and regulations, and the way to control the rise and fall of chaos are all in my mind. From a young boy who studied at night to a young student who was just beginning to show his talents, he overcame obstacles on the road to the imperial examination with his vision and talent far beyond his times. He won the first prize in the rural examination, became famous in the general examination, and shocked the emperor in the palace examination. He stepped into the court in a commoner's body, only to find that the officialdom was in turmoil and the undercurrent of party strife was surging. There are traitors at work inside, and there are dangers from the outside. He has to deal with both open and covert attacks, and at the same time, he has to fulfill his wish to manage the world and benefit the people. Promoting agriculture and mulberry, benefiting industry and commerce, rectifying the government, and ensuring the environment... Step by step, he went from a poor student to the position of a powerful prime minister, writing a legend of "Xiaren", and let the history books of the Jing Dynasty leave a strong mark on this soul that accidentally broke in.

In the history of China, countless geniuses were born. Xiang was called "the talent of the Holy Duke" by the saints at the age of seven, Gan Luo became prime minister at the age of twelve, Cao Chong was called Xiang at the age of nine, Gao Cheng surrendered to Gao Aocao at the age of ten, and Sun Quan went to Liu Biao as an envoy to exchange for his father's body at the age of nine. Let's see how the three-year-old prodigy shines in the fictional Tang Dynasty. A shrewd and prudent modern businesswoman was born in the fictional Tang Dynasty. She was once a boy of an ancient farmhouse. She always thinks in terms of "profit is king" and lacks family ties. What should she do in this era of close "family" relationships? What kind of sparks will the ancient Confucian thinkers use their knowledge from the previous life to promote the rise of the New Tang Dynasty?
