Traveling through troubled times, he fled with his stepson

In that strange world surrounded by stars, there is a dynasty called "Wenyuan". The Wenyuan Dynasty is proud of its prosperous culture and universal education, and its imperial examination system is world-famous. Here, no matter whether you are a man or a woman, as long as you are talented, you have the opportunity to show your talents.

The protagonist of the story, Lin Qingyao, is just such an exception. She is a woman from Earth who accidentally traveled to this alien world. From the initial confusion to the current calmness, she has written her own legend with wisdom and courage in the past ten years.

Lin Qingyao was born in Qingyun Village, a small village in the Wenyuan Dynasty. It is far away from the hustle and bustle and the people are simple. She was adopted by a kind old woman, who was her adoptive mother, known as "Auntie Mei". Auntie Mei was a wise woman in the village and had a profound influence on Lin Qingyao's growth.

Since she was a child, Lin Qingyao has shown extraordinary intelligence and diligence. She can quickly master and excel in poetry, songs, calligraphy, chess, and painting. She has a tenacious character and a spirit of never giving up, which allows her to overcome many difficulties in her studies.

As she grew older, Lin Qingyao's reputation began to spread in the surrounding areas. Her talent was not only recognized by the villagers, but also attracted the attention of some knowledgeable people. Among them, the most important person was her master, Mr. Bai Lu.

Mr. Bai Lu is a scholar who lives in seclusion near Qingyun Village. He is knowledgeable and upright. By chance, Mr. Bai Lu saw Lin Qingyao's talent and decided to take her as his apprentice and guide her to learn more advanced knowledge.

Under the guidance of Mr. Bai Lu, Lin Qingyao not only learned a lot, but more importantly, she learned how to be a good person. Mr. Bai Lu often said: "Knowledge is boundless, only those with virtue can reach it." This sentence deeply influenced Lin Qingyao, making her pay more attention to the cultivation of morality while pursuing knowledge.

Time flies, and in a blink of an eye, Lin Qingyao has reached the age to participate in the imperial examination. With the encouragement of Mr. Bai Lu, she resolutely embarked on the journey to the imperial city, ready to meet a major challenge in her life.

On the way to the imperial city, Lin Qingyao encountered various difficulties and challenges, but she overcame them one by one with her wisdom and courage. Her story spread during the journey, and more and more people began to pay attention to this talented woman.

Finally, after a long journey, Lin Qingyao arrived at the imperial city. Standing under the towering city wall, she was filled with anticipation and excitement. She knew that a new chapter in her life was about to begin. Here, she would use her talent to prove that even a girl could become the top scholar.

Chapter 2: The Road to No. 1 Scholar

The dawn of the imperial city was just breaking, and the magnificent palace looked even more solemn and majestic under the shining sun. Lin Qingyao stood in front of the gate of this ancient city, her heart full of anticipation and nervousness. She knew that every step she took would determine her fate.

After entering the imperial city, Lin Qingyao first took part in the preparatory examination held by the Wenyuan Dynasty. This is a process of selecting truly talented people. Only by passing this level can one be qualified to take the final imperial examination.

The content of the exam is extensive and profound, covering literature, history, philosophy and other fields. Faced with such a challenge, Lin Qingyao did not back down. She demonstrated extraordinary strength with the knowledge she has accumulated over the years and the careful guidance of Mr. Bai Lu.

During the exam, Lin Qingyao met a young man with the same lofty ambitions, Li Mubai. He was the son of an official in the imperial city, and had received a good education since childhood and was very talented. The two met during the exam, appreciated each other's talents and qualities, and soon became friends.

The appearance of Li Mubai added a lot of color to Lin Qingyao's road to the imperial examination. They often discussed academic issues together and learned from each other. With the help of Li Mubai, Lin Qingyao gained a deeper understanding of the culture and history of the Wenyuan Dynasty.

However, the road to the imperial examination was not smooth. Lin Qingyao's talent aroused the jealousy and hostility of some people, especially a candidate named Zhao Wuji. Zhao Wuji was born in an aristocratic family and was conceited about his talent, but he was unwilling to see a woman surpass him.

In an open debate, Zhao Wuji openly challenged Lin Qingyao. Faced with the provocation, Lin Qingyao did not back down, but responded with calmness and wisdom. Her answer was profound and sharp, which won the praise of everyone present and made Zhao Wuji lose face.

This debate became a turning point for Lin Qingyao's fame. From then on, more people began to pay attention to this talented woman, and her story spread throughout the imperial city.

Finally, after layers of selection and tests, Lin Qingyao successfully entered the final imperial examination. In this examination, she stood out with her outstanding performance and eventually became the youngest champion in the history of the Wenyuan Dynasty.

When the results were announced, the whole imperial city was in an uproar. People were amazed at Lin Qingyao's talent and courage, and her name became a legend in the hearts of countless people. But Lin Qingyao knew that all this was just the beginning, and she had even bigger dreams waiting to be realized.

Chapter 3: Marrying the Princess

The news of becoming the top scholar swept the entire Wenyuan Dynasty like a spring breeze, and Lin Qingyao's name was praised in every corner. However, for Lin Qingyao, this was just a milestone in her life journey. In her heart, there was a more daring plan - to marry the newly divorced eldest princess, Murong Wan'er.

Murong Wan'er is the only daughter of the Emperor of the Wenyuan Dynasty, and is famous for her intelligence and beauty. However, her last marriage was a victim of political marriage and ended in failure. This experience made Murong Wan'er deeply wary of love and marriage.

Lin Qingyao knew that her identity and status were far different from Murong Wan'er, but she still decided to give it a try. She believed that true love should not be restricted by identity and status. So, on a sunny morning, Lin Qingyao went to the palace with a determined heart to meet the emperor.

In the Golden Throne Hall of the Imperial Palace, Lin Qingyao knelt before the emperor and expressed her wish. Her voice was soft but full of strength and determination: "Your Majesty, although I am of humble origin, I care about the world. If I can win the favor of the eldest princess, I am willing to protect the peace and prosperity of Wenyuan for the rest of my life."

The emperor was surprised by Lin Qingyao's request, but was also moved by her sincerity. He knew that Murong Wan'er had experienced many misfortunes, and if she could get a partner like Lin Qingyao, it might bring her new hope and happiness.

However, this matter was not something that the emperor could decide alone. He told Lin Qingyao that she had to get Murong Wan'er's consent. So the emperor arranged a meeting for Lin Qingyao to express her feelings to Murong Wan'er in person.
