Li Xiangjun was the adopted daughter of Li Zhenli, a famous courtesan in Nanjing in the Ming Dynasty. Together with the famous prostitutes of the Qinhuai Southern Song – Liu Ru Shi, Gu Heng Bo, Ma Xiang Lan, Chen Yuanyuan, Guan Baimen, Bian Yu Jing, Dong Xiaowan, and other eight people, was known as the “Eight Beauties of the Jinling Mountains” at that time.

Especially more admirable is her person, she makes gas chivalry, a throw money, face does not change color. In addition to many dignitaries fell under her pomegranate skirt, but also attracted countless literati, upright and heroic heroes and celebrities, for example; at that time the leader of the restoration of the society Chen Zhenhui and he had a close relationship.
Although Li Xiangjun is Li Zhenli’s adopted daughter, but Li Zhenli exceptionally cherish her, as if she were her own. Li Xiangjun not only long beautiful, and intelligent. Also by Li Zhenli’s cultivation, not only know books and etiquette, but also proficient in chess, qin, calligraphy and painting; especially good at singing Tang Xianzu’s Peony Pavilion and Gao Ming’s play Pipa Tale.
Li Xiangjun color art superb, personality love and hate clearly, distinguish between right and wrong, although not very young, but she made friends with all the integrity, character and learning of the famous scholar. She and his mother Li Zhenli different, she is not easy to socialize with people, must and her interest in the thought on the resonance of the only willing to be confidant, or else; would rather be alone and do not mix in the hustle and bustle of the scene. Therefore, Li Xiangjun usually in addition to her mother Li Zhenli, teaching song master Sukunsheng often accompanied her outside, most of the people who come and go are the famous people in the restoration of the society.
In the eleventh year of Chongzhen, Hou Fangwei, a merchant from Henan Province, came to Nanjing to discuss business and was introduced to Li Xiangjun by Yang Longyou.
Since Hou Fangwei was a son of a famous bureaucratic family in Henan Province, he had a close relationship with the literati of the Restoration Society, for example, Chen Zhenhui and Wu Yingji, the leaders of the Restoration Society at that time, were his confidantes and friends. In addition, Hou Fangwei was also famous for his literary talent.
When Li Xiangjun met Hou Fangwei for the first time, she thought he was a good man who could be committed to her for the rest of her life, and she fell in love with him. Hou Fangwei also thought that Li Xiangjun was not only beautiful and talented, but also had heard of her high moral character, so he accepted Li Xiangjun gladly.
That night, Li Xiangjun hosted a banquet in her boudoir and drank with Hou Fangwei. The two of them sang poems, played music together, and made love until it was very late at night, when they undressed and fell asleep in each other’s arms.
Li Xiangjun because of the naked and shy body curled up, back to Hou Fangwei side lying, slightly closed eyes dare not look at Hou Fangwei, but also does not refuse Hou Fangwei’s palms wandering in her skin. Hou Fangwei’s hand embraced Li Xiangjun from behind, and his fingertips touched the top of Li Xiangjun’s breasts, rhythmically tweaking the sensitive bumps.
Li Xiangjun felt that her back was cold, but what was close to her was Hou Fangwei’s warm chest; Hou Fangwei’s mouth was leaning against the back of Li Xiangjun’s neck poking out hot air; Hou Fangwei’s hot erection was also pressing against Li Xiangjun’s cool and cold strands rubbing against it. The extreme hot and cold touch was stimulating Li Xiangjun’s inner desire.
Hou Fangwei’s hand seemed to know his way around, smoothly drawing large circles on Li Xiangjun’s belly and thighs, and then slowly narrowing the circle’s half-stem, letting the edge of his palm touch the stray downy hairs, if at all. Li Xiangjun shivered, enjoying the pleasure of being stroked by Hou Fangwei’s gentle fingers as they climbed over the pubic hairs and touched the moist pussy.
Hou Fangwei stroked the wet square inches, knowing that Li Xiangjun’s lust was gradually rising, so he gently wrenched Li Xiangjun’s body upright so that she was lying on her back towards the sky, and Li Xiangjun turned around with a half-hearted push. ”Suck!” Hou Fangwei couldn’t help but suck in a mouthful of cold air, looking at Li Xiangjun’s furiously towering flawless breasts, her nipples standing quite hard.
Hou Fangwei’s lust was like a broken dike, out of control! Huo Ran lowered his head, sucking and slurping the buds on the tip of Li Xiangjun’s breasts; his hand pinched around the peaks of the breasts, and his tongue twirled around the tips of the breasts. Li Xiangjun could no longer hold back her breath, and opened her mouth exaggeratedly wide to gasp for air, and the gasping sound was mixed with the resonating moans from her throat and nasal cavity.
Li Xiangjun tightly hugged the back of Hou Fangwei’s head, twisting her breasts so that his lips and breasts would be more closely together. Hou Fangwei took advantage of the momentum of their bodies twisting around, and slowly supported Li Xiangjun’s thighs apart, trying to let his rod, which was so high up in the sky, find its own hiding place.
Due to the lack of guidance and support, coupled with the two of them forgetting to sway their bodies, so Hou Fangwei’s rod only rubbed around in Li Xiangjun’s lower body and crotch, and even a few times passed through the door but did not enter. Li Xiangjun’s was blindly hit by the crotch of the meat stick amused both hate and love, do not care about women’s modesty, hastily grabbed the stick, to the grass perched in the hole of the fragrance and go.
When the tip of Hou Fangwei’s rod just touched the soft honey hole, it suddenly became very sensitive, and he could clearly feel the thick and slippery pussy lips being pushed by the big glans and spreading out to both sides, and the narrow hole seemed to be opening and closing along with Li Xiangjun’s breathing. Hou Fangwei held back his impatience and slowly pushed in, he wanted to use his keen sense of touch to savor every corner of Li Xiangjun’s hole.
Although Li Xiangjun had been in the streets of Pingkang and had seen a lot of obscene things, she had never been so horny as she was tonight, nor had she ever tasted such delicious sex as she did tonight. Li Xiangjun’s humming and moaning was interspersed with obscene cries for Hou Fangwei to do it harder, faster… but Li Xiangjun didn’t know what she was shouting because she had already lost consciousness in the pleasure of her successive orgasms!
When Li Xiangjun slowly came back to her senses, she realized that Hou Fangwei was already lying limply on top of her. Li Xiangjun didn’t even know when Hou Fangwei ejaculated. All she felt was that the rod in her pussy was slowly deflating; the fullness in her pussy was slowly subsiding, and the hot liquid that flowed out ran along her hindquarters and spilled out onto the bedsheets…
In the distance came the cock crowing in the morning, Li Xiangjun with the satisfaction of sexual bliss, closed his eyes ┅┅┅┅ Ruan Dacheng! Once attached to Wei Zhongxian during the Tianqi years, willing to be Wei Zhongxian’s godson of the toothless literati, theater writer Ruan Dacheng, by the Chongzhen Emperor devaluation is taking refuge in Nanjing.
Because of the political climate in Nanjing at that time, the righteous power of the literati of the Restoration Society, the dominant position among intellectuals, so as the Wei castrate of the remnants of the party Ruan Daxu, in public and intellectual gatherings are often criticized and struck. Ruan Dacheng in Nanjing is like a street rat, everyone shouting, the situation is very embarrassing.
And Ruan Dacheng is a person who is not willing to be lonely, he tried every possible way to make friends with the restoration of the literati, in order to get a chance to appear in politics. He heard that Hou Fangwei and Restoration Society leaders Chen Zhenhui, Wu Yingji very close relationship, he wanted to make friends with Hou Fangwei through his friend Yang Longyou, in the hope that Hou Fangwei for him in front of Chen, Wu and two intercede.
When Ruan Dacheng knew that Hou Fangwei was going to marry Li Xiangjun, he took out two hundred taels of silver and asked Yang Longyou to help him buy clothes, jewelry, furniture,, as a trousseau for Li Xiangjun for Hou Fangwei.
On the eve of Li Xiangjun and Hou Fangwei’s love affair, since Hou Fangwei was living in Nanjing and had nothing to give Li Xiangjun as a love gift, he inscribed a poem on a white silk fan in front of the crowd: ‘The vermilion building in the middle of the road was slanted, and the king’s grandson was on the Fuping car for the first time. The green stream is full of Xinyi trees, less than the peach and plum blossoms of the east wind. He gave it to Li Xiangjun as a love gift.
Amidst the joyous voices of the crowd, Li Xiangjun solemnly accepted Hou Fangwei’s silk fan and kept it as a souvenir more precious than life.
The next day, just after waking up, Yang Longyou came to celebrate Hou Fangwei and Li Xiangjun’s wedding anniversary. Li Xiangjun finds Yang Longyou’s clothes and jewelry and asks why.
Yang Longyou explained: “I am Ruan Dacheng entrusted to ask Hou Fangwei in front of the leader of the Restoration Society Chen Zhenhui, Wu Yingji to intercede to ease the cheek.”
At this time, Hou Fangwei also said: “Ruan Dacheng was once a disciple of the famous scholar Zhao Nanxing, the past, although befriended the Wei Party, but also covered the Donglin gentlemen. Now the Wei Party fell, but he has become an enemy of the East Forest and the Restoration Society. Recently, the people of the Restoration Society have been attacking him, beating and insulting him is not a bit too much! Even if he is a member of the Wei Party, if he can repent and return, he should be forgiven.”
Li Xiangjun heard, immediately almond eyes, eyebrows erected, to Hou Fangwei angry said: “What are you talking about? Ruan Dacheng in the past, because of the power of Wei Zhongxian’s godson, so no evil, shame and disgrace. Women and girls, peddlers, all spit on him, these upright students of the restoration of society to reveal his evil, attack, abuse is also his deserved. Now you want to sympathize with him and rescue him! Think about it, you are a famous scholar in the world, but you want to use your reputation to assist the villain to get out of danger, aren’t you putting yourself on a dangerous and desperate path? Please think twice.”
Li Xiangjun paused for a moment, glanced at the gifts, and continued, “If it is because I accepted his trousseau that you are not in a good position to refuse him, then I will now take off the clothes and jewelry that he has given me, and return the entire trousseau that he has sent me. I would rather die poor than accept the gifts of this servile villain.” After saying this, Li Xiangjun took off her newly-wedded clothes, took off the hairpin and bracelet on her head and threw them on the ground.
Once Hou Fangwei saw Li Xiangjun like this, he said to Yang Longyou: “I have rarely seen such a strong and upright woman like Li Xiangjun. She is not only my lover; she is also my mentor and friend. Brother Yang! Please don’t blame me. I have been able to be recognized by the world, and have become somewhat famous among my friends in the academic world because I have always been a man of honor and integrity, and I do not discriminate between the virtuous and the foolish. If I accept Ruan Yuanlao’s gift now, I will lose my honor and integrity, and will not be able to distinguish between the good and the bad, and I will not even be as good as a Pingkang woman like Li Xiangjun, so what can I do in the future? If I were to be spurned by the Fuxing Society and the Donglin gentlemen, I would be alone, and what strength would I have to help Yuanlao? So I still ask Brother Longyou to return these things to Elder Yuan.”
Yang Longyou also have no other way, only according to Hou, Li two people mean, the things money back to Ruan Dacheng.
Chongzhen sixteen years in October, Li Zicheng insurgent army has soldiers under Beijing, Wuhan Zuo Liangyu’s army, due to the lack of food, the soldiers are unstable, so the Palace of Zuo Liangyu have waved troops south, with troops on the eclipse of the intention of Nanjing. At that time, the commander-in-chief Xiong Ming encounter on the convening of the Nanjing Ministry of War Secretary Shi Kefa, Fengyang Governor Ma Shiying, idle member of the Yang Longyou, Ruan Da and other discussions on how to cope with the situation.
As Hou Fangwei refused to return the gifts given to him by Ruan Dacheng, resulting in Ruan Dacheng nagging, so in the meeting to slander Hou Fangwei private communication with Zuo Liangyu, wanting to attack the city for Zuo Liangyu in Nanjing as an insider, instigated Xiong Mingyou to be able to arrest Hou Fangwei.
Yang Longyou went to Mei Xiangwu to give Hou Fangwei a message, telling him to follow Shi Kefa to leave Nanjing and supervise the troops at the front line in Yangzhou to avoid the crisis. Before his departure, Li Xiangjun hosted a farewell banquet for Hou Fangwei at the Bamboo Leaf Ferry. During the banquet, Li Xiangjun sang a lute song for Hou Fangwei, and after the song, she said to Hou Fangwei.
“Your talent for writing is no less than Cai Zhonglang’s, but Cai Zhonglang’s character and morals are inferior to his outstanding talent.
In any case, he had attached himself to Dong Zhuo and advised this butcher and thief who brutalized the people, which could not but be said to be a stain on his character. I hope you can love yourself in the future, in this chaotic world, distinguish between right and wrong, adhere to the honor and integrity, cleanliness, do not go astray. Your talent and behavior in today’s society is really one of the few celebrities, although now disillusioned, the future prospects are immeasurable, hope that your future cherish.” Li Xiangjun urged again and again, before parting with Hou Fangwei.
Li Xiangjun from send Hou Fangwei back, on the deep living in Mei Xiang upstairs, and then not down to receive guests, Li Zhenli cherish Li Xiangjun, sympathize with Li Xiangjun and Hou Fangwei’s love, but also do not force Li Xiangjun to do things she does not want to do.
Chongzhen seventeen years, March Li Zicheng hit Beijing, Chongzhen Emperor hanged coal mountain.
In April of the same year, the Nanjing Dynasty was founded by Ma Shiying and Shi Kefa, who welcomed King Yusong to create the Hongguang Dynasty. Ma Shiying was appointed as a cabinet minister to take charge of the government and Shi Kefa was sent to the front line to supervise the army and prepare for the war. Hou Fangwei worked as a military advisor in Shi’s army.
As a result of Ma Tuying’s promotion, Yang Longyou served as the head of the Ministry of Rites, Ruan Dacheng was reinstated as the Secretary of the Guanglu, and his relative and fellow villager Tian Yang was appointed as the governor of the canal.
Hongguang after the throne in addition to the beauty of listening to the song, ignore the government, his life creed is: ‘everything is not as good as the cup in hand, life a few see the moon when the head.’
Nanjing small court under the rule of the fainting ruler, powerful ministers, and fell into the power struggle for profit, tree party camping, song and dance, flattery and sycophancy of the rotten atmosphere.
Tian Yang, the Governor of Cao, was the first person with economic power in the small court of Nanjing. He was able to get this position only because of the promotion of his fellow villager and relative, Ma Tuying, who was a university scholar in the Cabinet. Therefore, when he was about to take office, he organized a banquet at home to thank Ma Shiying and invited his friends Yang Longyou and Ruan Dacheng to accompany him.
At the banquet, Tian Yang proposed to use 300 taels of silver to take a prostitute with outstanding talent among the famous prostitutes along the Qinhuai River to be his concubine. As soon as he revealed this intention, Ma Tuying expressed his support, and Yang Longyou and Ruan Dacheng said they would go for him to accomplish this task.
Ruan Dacheng in order to Hou Fangwei, Li Xiangjun to avenge the return of trousseau, and recommended to Tian Yang introduced that Li Xiangjun is the most suitable candidate. At the end of the banquet, Yang Longyou finds the old music marshal Ding Jizhi and Bian Yujing to find Li Xiangjun to make a match.
After Ding Jizhi and Bian Yujing meet Li Xiangjun, Li Xiangjun tells them that she is alone in an empty building and feels very lonely.
Ding and Bian advised her, “Why don’t you find a new son-in-law?”
Li Xiangjun replied, “I have married Hou Lang, how can I change my mind halfway?”
Ding and Bian had to reply clearly: “There is a big official, Tian Yang, who is willing to offer three hundred taels of silver to take you as a concubine, I wonder if you are willing to do so. Let us ask.”
Li Xiangjun smiled and said: “When I married Hou Lang, you have also attended the wedding, at that time he had written a love poem on the white silk fan as a souvenir, this fan is just like a bright red silk, tied me and Hou Lang together and will never be separated, it’s like 10,000 taels of gold can not be purchased, 300 taels of silver how can I buy the heart of this heart to Hou Lang? In the houses of prostitutes along the Qinhuai River, there are many beautiful and picturesque women who can be the wives of the officials, and I, who am not blessed with a thin destiny, cannot enjoy such a blessing, so please go to other people’s houses to find a suitable person!”
When Ding Jizhi and Bian Yujing failed to persuade Li Xiangjun, Yang Longyou asked the prostitutes Zheng Tuniang and Kou Baimen to persuade Li Xiangjun. When they saw Li Xiangjun, they first threatened: “If you don’t get married this time, you will be taken by the government to learn opera, and you won’t be able to see any men in the government opera troupe for the rest of your life, and you can’t get married even if you want to, so won’t it be even more painful at that time?”
Li Xiangjun firmly replied, “I would like to be widowed for Hou Lang for the rest of my life, and I don’t want to marry again.”
Zheng and Kou further terrorized Li Xiangjun, saying: “Three hundred taels of silver to buy you do not want to go, tomorrow the Ministry of Rites to send officials to take you to the torture to force you to marry, to see you marry or not?”
Li Xiangjun said categorically, “I would rather die than remarry.”
Yang Longyou saw that he couldn’t convince Li Xiangjun for a while, so he put it off for the time being. Tian Yang couldn’t wait for this to be done and went to his office. Therefore, Li Xiangjun can still live a few days of peace for the time being.
One day, Ma Tuying set up a banquet in Wan Yu Garden to invite guests to drink wine and enjoy plums. After drinking and eating, they wanted to find a songstress to sing songs. When the group talked about which singer is the best, Yang Longyou mentioned Li Xiangjun. So, Ma Tuying immediately sent someone to invite Li Xiangjun to sing.
At this time, Ruan Dacheng deliberately asked Yang Longyou: “Li Xiangjun, isn’t she the one Tian Yang wanted to buy as a concubine with three hundred taels of silver the day before?”
Yang Longyou replied, “It’s her.”
Ma Tuying asked, “Why didn’t you marry her?”
Yang Longhai replied: “This silly girl, to Hou Fangwei to keep the festival, resolutely not from, I have sent people to say twice, she flatly do not go downstairs, so that I can not help.”
Hearing this, Ma Tuying said angrily, “There is such a bold lackey, and she does not yet know the prestige of the magistrate of the Sangfu.
Ridiculous that such a whore is still so arrogant and high doing, it is really a moth to the flame, asking for destruction.”
Ruan Dacheng also added fuel to the fire, saying, “This is all because of that Hou Fangwei kid’s spoiled behavior, he has insulted me before.”
When Ma Shiying heard this, he was even more annoyed and said, “It’s not good, it’s not good, it’s not a joke that a caucasian governor can’t even buy a prostitute for 300 taels of silver!”
Ruan Dacheng said, “Tian Caotai is a townsman of the Sangha, so he was humiliated by him, we should think of a way to cure her.”
Ma Shiying agreed: “Good! Let’s wait until she comes.” At this time, the person who went to invite Li Xiangjun came back and said: “Li Xiangjun said that she was sick and firmly refused to go downstairs!”
Ma Tuying said: “That is, there is no need to find to invite, go directly to a few people to carry a small sedan chair to carry her, regardless of whether she agrees or not, sent directly to the Tian Caofu Fu ship to ask them to get married, is not the end.”
Turning back to Yang Longyou, he said, “Old sister Joe, you are familiar with the Li family, hard to marry Li Xiangjun this matter will be led by you to do it!”
Yang Longyou led the Xiangfu housekeeper, soldiers, carrying a sedan chair with three hundred taels of silver to the Li family to marry Li Xiangjun. They knocked on the door, Li Zhenli came out to open the door, Yang Longyou entered the house, and Li Zhenli told Ma Shiying to replace Tian Yangqiang to marry Li Xiangjun.
Yang Longyou said to Li Xiangjun: “That Ma Shiying knew that you refused to marry Tian Yang, and was furious, and sent a group of evil servants to marry you, I was afraid that you would suffer, so I came here to protect you. In my opinion, it’s not an injustice for you to marry a Caofu, but you think you are capable of resisting the power of this powerful minister.”
Li Zhenli also said: “Master Yang said reasonable, look at this situation, can not be argued, you might as well pack downstairs before it is too late!”
Li Xiangjun looked at Yang Longyou and Li Zhenli and said, “What are you talking about? That day, Master Yang made the match, and Mother officiated at the marriage, marrying me to Hou Lang, with a full house of guests, who didn’t see it. Now the love token is still with me.”
He took the white silk fan from the table and said, “Master Yang has read this love poem, have you all forgotten it?”
Li Zhenli said: “That Hou Lang escaped from the disaster, I don’t know where he is now? Are you saying he won’t come back for three years and you’ll wait for him for three years?”
Li Xiangjun said: “Not to mention three years, even thirty years, a hundred years, I will wait for him to the end, never remarry.”
At this time outside the noise: “The night is already late, quickly get into the sedan chair! We still have to carry her to the ship!”
Li Zhenli was very anxious and Yang Longyou said: “Things have come to this point can not care, quickly help her to dress up!”
Li Xiangjun held the fan left block right block, do not allow combing and dressing. Li Zhenli, Yang Longyou forced to comb and dress, hastily dressed, the two are going to carry Li Xiangjun downstairs. Li Xiangjun cried and said, “I would rather die than go downstairs.” After that, Li Xiangjun hit her head against the pillar and fainted to the ground.
Li Zhenli and Yang Longyou were really flustered, Yang Longyou pointed to the fan that fell on the ground and said, “Look, his forehead is broken, even this poetry fan is splattered with blood.” He picked up the fan, and Li Zhenli helped Li Xiangjun to the back room to rest.
Yang Longyou said to Li Zhenli: “What do you think?”
Li Zhenli said, “Please, Master Yang, save me and think of a way out!”
Yang Longyou said: “There is only one way, that is, you dress up and marry for Li Xiangjun to Tianfu.”
Lee Jung-ri said, “What if they recognize it?”
Yang Longyou said, “As long as I don’t say anything, who can they recognize?”
LiZhenLi can not help but say: “also have to do so!” So Li Zhenli dress up, for Li Xiangjun married to Tianfu.
Although Li Zhenli is nearly forty years old, but was born beautiful, and well-maintained, so the substitute for the marriage is also moncler outlet online.
However, in order to insure that there is no breakage, Li Zhenli calculates that she wants to use her mastery of bedtime kung fu to mesmerize Tian Yang’s heart first, so that he can get pleasure between the beds, then even if she reveals the stuffing, maybe Tian Yang will be infatuated with her own beautiful pussy and will not be pursued.
Therefore, on the night of the bridal chamber, Li Zhenli could be said to have used her mixed strength to serve Tian Yang at all costs.
Once on the bed, Li Zhenli made a masterpiece – blowing, sucking, containing, licking, swallowing, teasing Tian Yang Shu Shu rolled all over the bed, crying and crying.
According to Li Zhenli’s own memory, since she practiced this skill, no man can withstand four cycles of blowing, sucking, containing, licking, swallowing, seven out of ten in the third cycle of the armored abandonment. Like Tian Yang, this kind of color without strength role, Li Zhenli one cycle and a half will be resolved him.
Tian Yang’s wedding night was an all-night affair, with a total of four ejaculations. The rest of the time was wasted on coaxing his “little brother” to stand up; even more pitifully, Tian Yang was made to come out by Li Zhenli’s mouth, and his rod didn’t even touch the opening of her vagina.
However, Tien Yang enjoyed it, despite the fact that he was losing weight…
(Coda) Peach Blossom Fan
-A month later, Yang Longyou and Su Kunshan, an opera teacher, both came to visit Li Xiangjun. It so happened that Li Xiangjun was sleeping in her room, and the blood-splattered white silk poetry fan was placed on the table.
Su Kunshan said, “Li Xiangjun has been sick with worry for a few days because she misses Hou Fangwei and is also thinking of her mother Li Zhenli, let’s not startle her and let her rest well, let’s sit here for a while.”
Yang Longyou picked up the poetry fan and said: “A good poetry fan, but it’s a pity that it’s stained by blood. Mr. Su! Does Li Xiangjun have any pigment here? Let me add some color to it!”
When Yang Longyou had prepared his brush and ink, he used a black brush to draw a branch of plum blossom trunk in the bloodstained space on the fan, and added a few green leaves on the bloodstain with green pigment, so the fan presented a picture of blooming plum blossom.
At this time Li Xiangjun heard someone talking in the outer room, woke up from her dream, put on makeup in the mirror, and came out from the inner room. When she saw Yang Longyou and Su Kunshan, she bowed and sat down at the table.
She suddenly saw that the poetry fan on the table had been transformed, and the errant blood stains turned into a tree of brightly blooming plum blossoms, which she loved, and thanked Xie Yang Longyou for his artistic work on the poetry fan.
Yang Longyou asked Li Xiangjun with great concern: “What are you going to do in the future? What if Hou Fangwei doesn’t come back once he’s gone?” Yang Longyou continued, “Why don’t you ask someone to look for him at the Jiangbei front?”
Su Kunshan said at the side: “I want to go home for a visit in a few days! It just so happens that my hometown is in Henan, and I will pass by the Jiangbei front line along the way, so let me take care of this!”
Yang Longyou said, “Then Li Xiangjun, you write a letter and ask your master to bring it!”
Li Xiangjun thought for a moment and said: “I have a thousand words in my heart, which I can’t express by writing a letter, so why don’t Master Su take this poem fan with him? Because this fan is a token of love given to me by Hou Lang, the poem expresses his deep feelings for me; the blood stains on the poem symbolize my heart to keep my promise for him; the plum blossom painted by Master Yang tells him about my future aspirations. So this fan showed my thousand sufferings and ten thousand feelings, as well as my deep thoughts and ten thousand feelings for him, and my strong will to die rather than change. The… This fan is also an old familiar object to him, so seeing the fan is the same as seeing me.”
So Sukun Shan set off with his poetry fan; with Li Xiangjun’s thoughts of Hou Fangwei! In the midst of the war, Su Kun-shan had to search for Hou Fang-wu for Li Xiangjun…
