Chapter 217 – Peach Appreciation

Author’s Note:

Note: The phrases “In days of yore, Anling and Longyang, the prosperous sons” and “May I see the completion of joy, not the sorrow of separation,” as well as “In the west, there is a beautiful woman, as bright as the sun… her beauty shining brightly, her grace wafting with the wind,” etc., are all quoted from Jueji’s “Eighty-two Songs of Reflection.” These are examples of the literary style of the Zhengshi period. You may find them to read.
