You Help Me Rise to Great Heights, and I'll Give You a Beloved Wife and a Purple-Gold Palanquin

After his soul transmigrates into the body of a fake live-in son-in-law of the Zhen Guo General's household, Zhao Shanqing faces a dead end from the start! The emperor fears the Wang family's military power and is looking for an excuse to strike at them. Their political enemies are spreading lies, claiming they're remnants of the Northern Di. To make matters worse, everyone in the family is a mighty warrior, with not a shred of scholarly learning. They're all waiting for him to make a fool of himself in the imperial examinations so they can use it as a pretext to bring down the Wang family. Fortunately, in his previous life, he was the top scholar in the liberal arts, and he knows the Four Books and Five Classics by heart. Writing eight-legged essays is second nature to him. He has no choice but to use the imperial examinations to break the deadlock!
