【Golden Five Chapters】

Chapter One: Autumn Wind and Rain. In Tangyin County during the Song Dynasty, the protagonist, Li Yanqing, is studying. He travels back in time. In his previous life, he was the top scholar in a province, but was caught cheating on someone else in the college entrance exam, leading to his death in depression. In this life, his father committed the same deed, a stain on his life. Fifteen years from now, the Jingkang Incident will arrive, and the protagonist must continue his studies in frustration, pursuing the path to the imperial examination.

Chapter Two: A Poor Child. The protagonist's father is chased, beaten, and humiliated by the village's wealthy children, so he lets his dog attack him. The father scolds the dog, which he defends, and accidentally hits the protagonist. The father buys the protagonist his favorite syrup pancakes and secretly sells the weasel. In the middle of the night, the father prays before the protagonist's mother's spirit, finally saving enough money for the protagonist's education.

Chapter 3: Too Much Bullying. The father saved ten strings of cash and went to town early to enroll the protagonist in school. The neighbor next door came to visit the protagonist, and from the neighbor, he learned that his father had a large debt due to the funeral arrangements for his mother. Unexpectedly, the father was carried back home, nearly beaten to death by the housekeeper Li, and his money was stolen, alleging that his child had been bitten by the protagonist's dog.

Chapter 4: The Li Clan Ancestral Hall. The protagonist's father wants to take him to the Li Clan Ancestral Hall to worship. Although he doesn't want to go, despite all the resistance, he eventually has to go. However, he doesn't want to kneel down, and not only that, he discovers someone stealing alcohol inside the ancestral hall.

Chapter 5: Enemies meet on a narrow road. Inside the ancestral hall, the protagonist discovers a secret. Their ancestor appears to be Li Congqian, a Song Dynasty general and the younger brother of Li Yu of the Southern Tang Dynasty. Next to the tablet is a separate one, which, judging by the words, suggests it's the tablet of the retired emperor. The small Li family hides a shocking secret.

【Brief Comment】

Gao Yue, a great writer, has written 11 historical novels including "The World" and "Meng Zu", and has written many excellent works.

而《寒门枭士》创作于2017年3月至2018年7月，总字数305万。起点收藏8.94万，书城收藏15万，粉丝数23万，盟主8位。

I once wrote about his "The World", which is also a novel worth reading.

Today's book is equally exciting, but it doesn't offer many exciting moments in the early stages. The plot is relatively clear, without too many supporting characters or side plots interfering. The protagonist is also defined by the author, similar to Yue Fei and Xin Qiji, who are all-rounders of literature and martial arts.

However, many people criticized him for this book, believing that such a great writer had no real ability at all and that his works were even worse than his previous ones.

No matter how poorly written it is, just don't read it. There's no need to speak ill of it unless it's truly horrible.

After reading so many beginnings, I still feel that there is no big problem. Just treat it as fictional history.

Another thing I admire about him is that he has been deeply engaged in historical classification. Regardless of whether his grades improve or not, he will continue to write one book at a time. His self-discipline is much better than that of many young authors.

【to sum up】

Writing is not easy, so cherish every moment!
