    Recommended book keywords [soul travel, imperial examination, court battle] The male protagonist's soul travels to another world and becomes a weak, misguided peasant scholar who failed the imperial examination three times. In order to pay off the debt, he mobilized the whole village to set up a factory to make paints, and then he could concentrate on studying and taking exams without any worries. Relying on the memory of his previous life and his own efforts, he passed the sixth level, became the number one scholar, and entered the court as an official. In the officialdom, he gained His Majesty's trust, helped with good friends, eliminated corrupt officials, implemented the New Deal, made glass, gunpowder, and telescopes, and enhanced national strength to benefit the people. Personally, I feel that the emotional line does not account for much. The main plot is that the male protagonist takes the scientific examination and becomes an official in the court. The plot logic is also relatively novel, and it is truly about benefiting the country and the people.

    The first book: "May Zhao Zhao Be Like My Heart" | 9.3 Points · 40,000 people are reading · Childhood sweethearts rush to each other in both directions. When Lu Zhaozhao, the legitimate daughter of the Hou family, was sixteen years old, there were a mountain of marriage proposals from noble ladies in Beijing, but all she could see was the black official uniform of the Dali Temple Minister. Where is Shen Jiayan, the only son of Lord Protector? The wealthy prince insisted on engaging in the drama of "marriage first, love later" - before the marriage, he said coldly: "Miss Lu San, please respect yourself." After the marriage, he climbed through the window and entered the room, with red tips on his ears: "Prince Shen, please respect yourself." Who would have thought that the sweetness of the sweet legitimate daughter pursuing her husband hid the truth that the male protagonist had "planned for a long time"? The female protagonist's perspective is about the joy of "successfully chasing her husband", but the male protagonist's perspective is about the secret thoughts of "I want to marry you from the first moment I meet you". In the undercurrent of palace and house fights, the sweetness of this pair of green plums is steady and true.

No, it's a two-way healing that's so sweet! When the fourth girl of the Yun family, Yun Hua, was offered a marriage to the seventh prince, Si Heng, the whole capital was waiting to see the joke: one was a sickly young prince who was said to "kill his mother and his brother", and the other was a delicate noblewoman who "will be punished if she marries". The result? During the day, Si Heng stayed at her bedside: "As long as I'm here, no one can hurt you." In the dark night, he hooked his hands on her slender waist and rubbed her temples: "When I met you, there was finally a moon in my abyss." Even the small theater was so sweet that I stomped my feet - on the night of the wedding, Si Heng stared at Yunhua, who was "lying dead" and pretending to be faint, and suddenly laughed out loud: "Ahhua, open your eyes and see, I'm here to marry you."

"Marry just now!" She had the abacus of "waiting for the crown prince to wake up and then go to court", and the result was - raising a stepson: teaching three little monkeys to be "little cotton-padded jackets", who would beat her legs and make her happy; teasing the crown prince: seeing the light in his eyes when he opened his eyes, suddenly... He didn't want to leave? "Mom, when daddy wakes up, do we want to give him a surprise?" The three children picked up the corners of her clothes, their eyes bright. Xie Yunzhi touched her head and smiled: "Ayi, I'm afraid this 'down to the hall' will be changed to 'entrance'."

According to rumors, this Yan Prime Minister was stern, cruel, and not close to women, but when they met for the first time - "How to save my father and brother?" She knelt in front of his case, her eyes red. Yan Jingchen put down his ink brush, his dark eyes darkening: "It's cold in the winter on my bed." Okay, do you want her to warm the bed? But who would have thought that this cold-faced man would say "I'm here" with red eyes when she was wronged; he would make medicine with his own hands when she was sick, even blowing on the dregs to make it warm; and when she asked "Why are you so nice to me", he would say in a hoarse voice: "Because... You are worth it." After reading the introductions of these books late at night, my fingers have already begun to click "add to book list" - there are no bloody routines, no forced wisdom, each book has "rigorous logic" engraved into the bones. If you also want to read ancient novels with "solid plots and vivid characters", these four books are just right for you to read with your eyes closed! After all...
