About This Novel
This book shows that Hou Fangyu, a famous scholar in the late Fushe, fell in love with Li Xiangjun, a famous Qinhuai prostitute. Ruan Dacheng, a remnant of the eunuch party, tried to win over Hou Fangyu, but failed due to Li Xiangjun's opposition and turned to the treacherous minister Ma Shiying. Ma, Ruan and others welcomed King Fu, controlled the government, excluded and attacked decent people. Hou Fangyu was forced to rely on Shi Kefa, and Li Xiangjun was also selected into the palace. Later, when the Qing troops went south and captured Nanjing, Hou and Li were reunited at Qixia Mountain in Nanjing, and eventually became monks together. The script takes the marriage of Hou and Li as its sutra and the painful history of the Ming Dynasty as its weft. It depicts the rise and fall of the Hongguang Dynasty in the Southern Ming Dynasty and reveals the inevitable fall of the Hongguang Dynasty.
