About This Novel

Liu Qingmei was originally a daughter of an official, but because her father's outspoken remarks made the emperor angry, the whole family was demoted and she was reduced to a slave. Fortunately, thanks to the support of her parents, she did not become a prostitute and became famous for her music, chess, calligraphy and painting in Ningxiang Pavilion. Cheng Zizhu, a scholar, failed in the imperial examination three times. After failing the exam for the third time, he was disheartened and felt that he had no talent for being an official. He also ran out of money. In order to survive, he had to rely on menial jobs such as moving goods. By chance, Liu Qingmei met the down-and-out Cheng Zizhu and fell in love with him at first sight. She comforted him with gentle words, and even offered herself to him. This move caused the sisters to scold her, saying that she was stupid and not worth it for a poor boy. They even said bluntly: "If he doesn't want you, you will be worse than a pariah. Can you think clearly?" Liu Qingmei smiled but did not answer, and then used her savings over the years to redeem herself, and decided to follow Cheng Zizhu. Three years later, the imperial court held another imperial examination, and Cheng Zizhu was unexpectedly on the list. The emperor was very satisfied with him during the interview and wanted to betroth his youngest daughter to him. Cheng Zizhu, however, frankly stated that he already had a fiancée and would not marry her unless she was the one. Faced with the emperor's question "I would rather stay with her than be an official", he said eloquently: "A daughter without a minister is also a daughter, and a minister without a family and a wife has long been without a minister."
