About This Novel

The book has a total of 305 paragraphs, divided into three major contents: clustering, diary and random thoughts. The clustering is influenced by Li Yishan's "Za Tu" of the Tang Dynasty, which lists things of different natures and categories in life, such as "mountains", "sea", "disappointing things", "elegant things", involving geographical features, vegetation, flowers and birds, inner emotions, life interests, etc., Which very richly reflects the author's delicate observation and aesthetic taste of Qing Shao Nayan. The diary records the author's life in the palace, from which we can learn about the living conditions and tastes of the royal family and nobles in Japan's Heian period. Random thoughts are random thoughts about nature and life, especially the author's bright and free attitude towards life. This book contains color illustrations and inserts.
