About This Novel
The first part of the "Sea of Plenty" series. Qingxian, who was born in a marquis family, did not have the courage to accept the marriage proposal of the earl's daughter Satoko. After Satoko was ordered by the emperor to propose marriage to the third prince of Dongyuan Palace, Zhixian, they kept in touch through the old servant Tateko. Satoko was pregnant, and her father was afraid that the matter would be exposed, so he asked his daughter to go to Nara Tsukishuji Temple to hide from the wind. However, Satoko became a nun at Yuexiu Temple. With the help of his friends, Kiyoaki went to Tsukishuji Temple to meet Satoko, but was rejected by Satoko. He returned to Tokyo and passed away the next day due to mental and physical exhaustion. Kawabata Yasunari praised it as "the modern "The Tale of Genji"".
