"In the northern lands, a beautiful woman stands alone, her beauty unparalleled. A single glance from her is enough to captivate a city, and a final turn of her head is enough to enchant the entire nation."
"The clouds conjure up my clothes, and I long for your face. The spring breeze gently caresses the railing, and the dewdrops sparkle and dazzle. If we were not on the summit of Mount Qunyu, we would surely have met under the moonlight of the Jade Terrace."
……
She gently placed the small mirror on the table, her heart filled with complex emotions.
"The poems and lyrics that Brother Su has given me are numerous and must be more exquisite and affectionate than those given by that so-called Lady Kui before me."
"Did I make a mistake...? If only I could have gone to the capital with him back then... Alas, why are men always like this? My senior brother is like this, and so is Brother Su!"
Li Miao longed to spend the rest of her life with Su Nan, but she could never overcome that final knot in her heart. At this moment, she suddenly felt a pang of regret.
In reality, Li Miaozhen did not have a deep understanding of poetry, but she particularly loved Su Nan's calligraphy and found his poems and prose to be smooth and pleasant to read. No matter how she examined them, she felt that the poems and lyrics given to her by Su Nan were superior.
"It's really unpleasant. Back in Jianzhou, I noticed that Sect Leader Xiao had a good impression of Brother Su, but after arriving in the capital, he was entangled with other women!"
Li Miao was truly immersed in thoughts of gain and loss when she suddenly saw that the other party had replied with a long message.
Requesting flowers...0
[Number One: Number Two, Number Five, are you from a foreign land, or illiterate? These two poems are not only masterpieces, but especially the lines "Sparse shadows slant across the clear, shallow water, a faint fragrance drifts in the twilight," which can be called timeless masterpieces.]
For thousands of years, no one has been able to create such exquisite verses. The woman named Fu Xiang will likely be renowned for generations to come!
As Huaiqing wrote, she grew increasingly furious, and a sense of panic welled up inside her. She angrily pounded her chest, but even so, she couldn't feel the rhythm of her heartbeat.
"Why am I so angry? Logically, I shouldn't be like this, but I can't control my emotions, and I am truly angry."
This poem is truly exquisite, so Lady Kui no longer needs to pursue this profession. She has already achieved lasting fame and won eternal renown; why would she need to cling to someone else's patronage?
"This Su Nan is not only exceptionally intelligent and skilled in martial arts, but what is even more unexpected is that after returning, he frequents brothels!"
Huaiqing felt a surge of inexplicable anger welling up inside him.
Chapter 171 A paragon of virtue, a rare find in this world!
"I am overjoyed to have recruited such a rare talent, and I should feel extremely gratified!"
[Number One: Number Two, your intelligence seems to be off. Su Zhexian's confidantes are far more than just the Flying Swallow Heroine. He's more than just a great hero; he's clearly a dashing and romantic figure.]
Upon hearing Number One's remarks, Li Miaozhen's expression hardened, and she said solemnly:
How can you speak of Brother Su in such a way?
[Number Two: "553" He can be described as a romantic and talented man; besides, isn't this just human nature?]
Huaiqing watched as Number Two talked with Su Nan and couldn't help but feel a little frustrated. After all, in Da Feng, most men who enjoyed a prominent position had many wives and concubines.
Since this young lady, who has just finished washing and grooming, will no longer entertain guests and could become a concubine in the household, it would not be a bad way out.
In this vast world, apart from the poor, it seems that only the husbands of noble princesses and duchesses are exempt from the custom of having multiple wives and concubines.
Since Su Nan is neither a prince consort nor a royal son-in-law, what reason does he have to be dissatisfied?
Su Nan glanced at Li Miaozhen's words and couldn't help but admire her. Li Miaozhen was indeed sincere to him, and the poems she had sent during this period had not been in vain.
He aspired to live a life of luxury, surrounded by beautiful women.
According to the original novel, Li Miaozhen did not seem to mind this situation, and Su Nan respected Li Miaozhen quite a bit and never made any overly intimate moves with her.
Recently, I was in a brothel and witnessed the charm of Fu Xiangkui. I also had the privilege of appreciating two poems by Su Zhexian.
His writing is exquisite and profound, truly a timeless masterpiece. I am honored to introduce him to you all; he is indeed a remarkable man!
Number Six: Number Three is right, Su Zhexian is truly amazing!
[Number 5: Stayed indoors for two days and two nights, truly an extraordinary person.]
[Number Nine: This humble Taoist has had the good fortune to meet Su Zhexian on several occasions. He is indeed an outstanding individual, a rare find in this world!]
"Snapped!"
Huaiqing flipped the small mirror under the table, then rolled over, lay face down on the soft bed, and kicked his legs a few times.
"What's wrong with this world? Everyone thinks Su Nan is a good person. Am I wrong?"
She was always competitive, and in a fit of anger, she pounded the bed a few times. Then, she gracefully leaped up and gently smoothed her disheveled hair with both hands.
[Number One: What everyone says makes sense. The entire capital is buzzing about it. Su Zhexian can be called a once-in-a-millennium genius.]
After angrily finishing writing that sentence, Huaiqing carefully tucked the small mirror into his sleeve and never glanced at it again.
Su Nan's lips almost curled up to her ears, and a sense of satisfaction welled up inside her.
This is what it means to be the popular choice and to receive overwhelming praise!
Even the noble princess praised my actions, giving me compliments even for trivial matters like visiting brothels.
Su Nan's smile was mixed with a sudden tingling sensation. "Hiss... Fu Xiang, don't do that."
The beauty in his arms spoke shyly, "Oh dear, has Fu Xiang disturbed you, sir? It is truly my fault, please forgive me."
"A faint fragrance wafts through the air... I've rested enough... I'm ready to serve you again, young master..."
Su Nan gently moved the small mirror away from her hand, facing directly at those large, watery eyes that were gazing at her.
"Forehead……"
Su Nan shook his head helplessly.
Chapter 172 A beautiful and charming face, ripples of confidence
Inside the palace in Lin'an.
"Sparse shadows slant across the clear water, a faint fragrance lingers in the twilight..."
Lin'an rested her chin on her hand, her eyes sparkling like peach blossoms as she stared intently at the two poems on the table. She was particularly sensitive to the charm of romance and poetry, and as someone who was passionate about forbidden books on the subject, she had a special fondness for them.
The realm of these two poems far surpasses that of all the restrictive books she has ever read.
"The beauty of the verses, the wonder of the imagery, and the charm of the plum blossoms—the people of southern Jiangsu have displayed such extraordinary talent."
"I have known her more than ten times, but I have never once entertained the thought of asking her to write a poem or calligraphy. It is all because of Su Nan. The novels he sends me are always so captivating that I cannot extricate myself from them. How can I have the leisure to think about anything else?"
Lin'an was filled with longing, but in an instant, her pretty face was covered with a layer of frost.
"What a scoundrel, Su Zhexian! How dare he sneak around the Jiaofangsi without my knowledge!"
“That’s not right… How could a man who writes forbidden books about love and sex be ignorant of the ways of love and sex? If he truly understands the essence of it, yet is so young, it’s quite unusual if he didn’t join the brothel.”
"Su Nan cannot go to the brothel, hmph! I absolutely disagree!"
The young palace maid standing nearby witnessed Princess Lin'an's anger and laughter intertwined, sometimes falling into a daze; such a complex mix of emotions was truly rare.
"Hey! Is there any way to keep men away from brothels?"
The princess suddenly spoke, startling the palace maid.
"First, he came from a poor family; second, he was a palace eunuch; and third, he was strictly controlled by his wife after marriage..."
Princess Lin'an fell into deep thought after hearing this.
"I arranged for Su Nan to be castrated in the palace and stay by my side... I don't know if he's willing, or perhaps he isn't."
"How could the renowned Su Zhexian be bound to my side?"
"Why not choose a wise and capable spouse for him to control his behavior and prevent him from returning to the brothel?"
“Huaiqing is the most stern woman in the world. How can I marry her? If Huaiqing were to marry him, I would be very unhappy.”
Princess Lin'an pondered for a moment, then suddenly sensed something was amiss, and a strange unease welled up in her heart.
"How can this be... Why should I get involved in Su Nan's affairs? Whether he goes to the Jiaofangsi or not is none of my business."
At this moment, Princess Lin'an's cheeks suddenly flushed red as she realized the existence of a major problem.
"How could this be? How could this be... How could I possibly have developed those feelings for Su Nan like those characters in those popular novels?"
Once the thought crossed her mind, Lin'an couldn't help but recall the way Su Nan stared at her, and the intense feeling of her heart pounding like a drum when their eyes met.
"I don't want to dwell on it anymore. After all, we've only known each other for two or three months, so the possibility is probably slim."
As soon as this thought arose, Lin'an felt it necessary to visit Su Nan again. If he could handle it calmly, it would prove that there was no emotional entanglement between the two of them.
She slowly walked towards the mirror, gazing at her beautiful face reflected in it, and a surge of confidence welled up in her heart.
It has been ten days since I last visited southern Jiangsu.
"As a princess, is it too much to ask him for a poem? Does he hold a place in my heart lower than a handsome and talented young man I've just met?"
Lin'an's cheeks flushed involuntarily, and her heart began to pound fiercely once more.
Chapter 173 Rising to Fame, the Title of "Three Wonders of Southern Jiangsu"
Plum Blossom Pavilion.
Su Nan has already left, and Fu Xiang stares blankly at the two poems.
From the moment Su Nan picked up his brush and created "A Gift to the Jade Beauty Fu Xiang", Ye Ji completely transformed herself into Fu Xiang, or rather, Fu Xiang was her true self.
The once rich fragrance of flowers now lies desolate in the back hall, unable to fulfill its original purpose.
Upon receiving Yukihime's letter, Fuka remained perplexed.
This nine-tailed fox spirit had seen countless men in the world, yet she poured her heart and soul into loving a young human.
Now, Fu Xiang has finally realized that she is also deeply infatuated and unable to extricate herself, having fallen in love with the man who is the counterpart to the legendary courtesan and scholar.
This gentleman from southern Jiangsu is incredibly charming, almost flawless, and a truly impeccable person.
While Fu Xiang was lost in thought, she suddenly heard the voice of a maid.
"Miss, according to Madam Mingyan, she kindly requests that you come to Qingchi Courtyard for tea and drinks at lunchtime."
Kuiming inkstone, once renowned and located at the pinnacle of Fuxiang Shulong, is now a unique gem in Fuxiang, its name spreading throughout the land of Dafeng.
Needless to say, this banquet was both a celebration of joy and a test of people's hearts. With so many people, there was bound to be conflict, whether they were mortals or demons.
In the afternoon, a lavish banquet was set up in the main hall of Qingchi Academy, inviting seven renowned leaders, including the rising star Fu Xiang.
These beauties, some as plump as swallows, others as slender as willows, each possessed a unique charm. Mingyan, due to her exquisite dancing skills, was highly favored by the distinguished guests.
"Congratulations to Miss Fuxiang! She has only just finished dressing up and her fame has already spread throughout the capital. Now, the name of 'Three Wonders of Southern Jiangsu' has already deeply penetrated people's hearts. Her poem, her lyric, and her fragrance all refer to Sister Fuxiang."
"Indeed, this is incredibly enviable; it's like good fortune earned over several lifetimes."
"Sister Fuxiang, now that your fame has spread far and wide, you should seize the opportunity to welcome many guests. To tell you the truth, I have heard that several sons of ministers and vice ministers are eager to meet you, but none of them have been able to catch a glimpse of the beauty of Sister Fuxiang's boudoir."
