A talented man and a beautiful woman, two marriages, and a poetic journey across mountains and rivers.
Gan Yi, a talented man from Sichuan, went to Yangzhou to study in order to seek fame and a good wife; his sister Gan Meng was both talented and beautiful, but because of her remote family background, it was difficult to get married.
In Yangzhou, Gan Yi accidentally met Xin Jingyan, the daughter of a wine sacrificer. She was so talented that she opened the "Hongyao Poetry Club" to choose her son-in-law through her poems, which made her famous throughout the city. In order to be close to Fangze, Gan Yi did not hesitate to dress up as a woman, joined the society as a "talented girl", sang poems with Xin Jingyan, and secretly fell in love.
On the other side, Gan Meng encountered her cousin Diao Zhi in her hometown and forced her to marry. She used poetry as a sword and amazed everyone in the court. She even attracted Yangzhou talent Xin Jie to propose marriage. Two marriages, one in Sichuan and one in the south of the Yangtze River, got married because of poetry and agreed because of their talents, but they also caused turmoil due to family status, power and misunderstandings.
The son of a famous general forced a marriage proposal, the county magistrate arranged a matchmaker for thousands of miles, a cunning man planned a forced marriage, and a talented woman solved the dilemma...
"The Marriage of Two Crosses" uses a dual-line narrative to describe the elegance and tenacity of ancient talents and beauties. It has both the elegance and grace of poetry and lyrics, and the wit and wit of fighting against power and villainy.
If you love the love between children in "A Dream of Red Mansions" and the sincere love in "The Peony Pavilion", this work will take you to witness how two marriages destined to meet can span thousands of miles and become a good story.
