Qiuxiang and Tang Yin: a Long Song of True Art

Introduction to the work "Qiuxiang and Tang Yin: A Long Song of True Art" When Lin Xiaoman, a talented girl from the history department, put on the treasure-embedded gold hairpin, what was reflected in the bronze mirror was the face of Qiuxiang, a maid from the Washington Palace during the Chenghua period of the Ming Dynasty! Memories of the original owner flooded into her mind - Tang Yin, the "romantic talent" who squatted at the Western Wall every day and harassed her by reciting acid poems, was chanting: "A smile that can turn the city upside down~" Xiao Man rolled his eyes: "Brother Tang, do you rhyme? 'Star' and 'city' are thousands of miles apart!" A vicious exchange of words across time and space began. In order to get rid of the fate of "tool man", Xiaoman used modern textual research thinking and ancient aesthetic literacy to challenge Tang Yin in a series of talent battles: in the poem Battle, she quoted "The Calendar of Time" to debunk "The Willow Tops on the Moon" "The astronomical fallacy"; during the painting duel, the Song Dynasty's "voluptuous bones" technique was used to transform his "big head and short body" painting of a lady; during the ensemble of piano and flute, the bright rhythm of "Folding Willow" was used to cure his "old woman's feet-bound" procrastination. Tang Yin went from being shocked to being obsessed, from "expressing sorrow to compose new words" to realizing that "the most important thing in art is authenticity". He was also completely conquered by Xiao Man's courage and wisdom during crises such as visiting Prince Ning's Mansion at night and outsmarting fake paintings. He learned how to sketch with charcoal, recited the wisecracks she taught, collected herbs in the rain to make ginger tea, and conveyed his love with a poem handkerchief on Chinese Valentine's Day. When King Ning set up a "literary meeting" trap, the two of them used the "True Art Scroll" to prove that "a true heart leads to a true art", and finally became the "Jiangnan confidants" appointed by the emperor. Xiaoman's step through time shone again. When leaving, Tang Yin gave her "Autumn Fragrance and Prancing Horse" with the inscription "Waiting for you to enjoy the mountains and rivers together". An ancient light comedy with "talent" as matchmaker, watch how Niu Qiuxiang uses poison in modern society
