Water Margin Meets Dream of the Red Chamber: I, Wu Song, Become Invincible Through the Imperial Exams

After transmigrating as Wu Song, he had two paths before him.

One was to rely on his own strength, climb Jingyang Ridge to kill a tiger, become an outlaw, and eventually get mixed up with Song Jiang.

The other was to study hard, take the imperial examinations, become the top scholar, and reach the pinnacle of life through the exams.

The Song dynasty valued civil officials over military ones, and rebellion was no sensible option, so Wu Song resolutely embarked on the broad road of imperial examinations.

But the Song dynasty was like a dreamlike, illusory Red Chamber, ready to shatter at the slightest touch.

Relying on his talents in both letters and arms, Wu Song climbed the ranks one step at a time.

Li Qingzhao crossed paths with Lin Daiyu and Xue Baochai. The most remarkable women in the world were all gathered in one garden. Who among them could win Wu Song’s heart?

If you provoke me, I’ll give you another round of family discipline.

I, Wu Song, take on the Four Princes and Eight Dukes, and I take on the Six Villains at court.

I strike north against the Jin and Liao, campaign east against Japan, pacify Western Xia in the west, sweep the Baiyue in the south, and keep the likes of Song Jiang firmly in check.

Looking back, that scoundrel Zhao Ji was selfish through and through. If that’s the case, there’s no reason the realm couldn’t belong to the Wu family.
