    Reader note

    💐💐💐This book is super nice. The name Qi Wenyu is really correct. I have never been red-faced with anyone in my life. Except for going to the battlefield, I can be regarded as a gentle person. For the sake of the great dynasty and for the people of the world, he worked hard for national affairs. He never assumed a superior attitude because he was beyond the knowledge of others, nor did he detach himself from the secular world and pretend to be aloof. He blended in naturally and even made me forget his original identity. The image of the protagonist is very rich, and it is very different from other books on the imperial examination. It does not stop at the time of naming on the gold list, nor does it briefly describe the great achievements after that, but writes in detail the promotion process after becoming an official. Maybe it's because I'm more emotional now, and I can't bear to see the people in the book leaving one after another. I know that these people are illusory, but I still feel sad. Finally, the protagonist's enlightened family tradition has been passed down from generation to generation, making the Qi family a thousand-year inheritance, a large family, and the families of his classmates and friends that have continued into the 21st century, which is also touching. Recommended!!! 🌸🌸🌸. ,
