Maintain the existing style; the highlight of Dream of the Red Chamber is its harem and its focus on female characters. Just stick to that aspect when writing. However, authors should absolutely avoid creating original female protagonists, as that can easily break the reader's immersion in the story. It's better to simply create a derivative work based on the original novel.
A slave's descendant seduces his master's daughter? Very well, the Jia family of Shenjing will become the laughingstock of the entire capital.
Highly poisonous Training Jia Baoyu to take the imperial examinations is something even Jia Zheng, who is known for his long face, couldn't do. How can you, the son of a servant, have such a big face? Furthermore, the protagonist wants to steal Jia Baoyu's woman, and then he wants to train Jia Baoyu to study for the imperial examinations. Jia Baoyu knows that if he succeeds in the imperial examinations, why would his sisters choose him? Are you born into a higher social class than Jia Baoyu?
When Da Lianbao (Big Face Boy) took the imperial examination, Jia Shi was the first to stop him. If Da Lianbao continued to be lazy, he could survive; if he worked hard, his entire family would be executed. The boy with the large face was born with a jade in his mouth, and Jia Wangshi's actions completely cut off all his paths.
Having read sixty chapters so far, I'd like to say a few words in support of the author: I clicked on this book several times, but was always turned off by the few comments on the homepage. Those comments suggested that the encouragement of Jia Baoyu to take the imperial examinations and the portrayal of the cunning servants as villains were problematic.
If you start by taking Lai Da's son as your starting point, then you can't afford to wrong anyone in the Jia family. You'll have to endure it whether they criticize you or use you. Your whole family is sucking the Jia family dry; your stance is problematic, and you can't stand up to them. If you stand too hard later, you'll be seen as ungrateful, blaming the cook after you've eaten. Prioritizing morality makes you inferior.
Write more, and emulate the captivating Jiao Tailang from the neighboring Dream of the Red Chamber. We are both sons of servants.
In *Dream of the Red Chamber*, children born into humble families could not participate in the imperial examinations.
The protagonist is from the Lai family, which has the worst reputation among everyone. Moreover, the protagonist is neither good at literature nor martial arts, yet he still wants to be a playboy, so there is no sense of satisfaction at all.
A servant's son wants to marry the legitimate daughter of the Jia family? All the powerful and wealthy would kill the main character, lest their own families follow suit, you know? Besides, Jia Yuanchun is an imperial concubine; the emperor would kill her first. What kind of person wants to be related to the emperor by marriage? 😂😂😂
