Sold as a Slave at the Start, I Rise to Become the Chief Minister Through the Imperial Examinations

When Wang Wei, a modern Chinese literature student, wakes up, he has transmigrated into Wang Gou’er, a young slave boy sold off by his clan.

He thinks his life has already started and ended, but unexpectedly his new master is a rich and powerful licensed scholar.

Even more unexpectedly, through a twist of fate, he becomes the young master’s lifesaving benefactor and is directly assigned to work in the study.

While the other slaves are still struggling to memorize rules, Wang Gou’er has already set his sights on the Four Books and Five Classics in the study, as well as the young master’s imperial-examination materials.

Watch this little book boy as he grows quietly inside this deep mansion and turns a transmigrator’s knowledge reserve into his strongest trump card!

First sever family ties, then take the imperial examinations, and all the way up to six consecutive first-place victories, shocking the court and the emperor, who blurts out that a literary star has descended!

His great-uncle and third uncle even kneel to beg for forgiveness, saying that one family name can’t be written with two Wang characters!

Wang Gou’er: What do you mean, one Wang? I want my own branch in the family register!

...

Many years later.

With power over the world, Wang Gou’er looks at the court officials and says: “Back when I was a book boy, you called me Gou’er. I didn’t hold it against you. Now that I’m the current Grand Chancellor, what should you call me?”
