It describes that when a student was reading at night, he met a fox who had been cultivating for thousands of years and transformed into the beautiful Xi Shi. Through the old fox's mouth, he talked about the beauties of the past and present, hence the name. The beauties of ancient and modern times are divided into three categories, a total of fifty people; thirty-five beauties whose beauty transcends a moment; ten beauties who transcend a generation; and five beauties who are unparalleled throughout the ages.
