When Talented Beauties Meet

Li Qingzhao: I was enjoying a drink. How did I end up in the sky? Or did I flee underground? And then I met a great beauty, the greatest of them all.

Xi Shi: Where is this? What time is it?

I would ask your name, then look down and up again: a daughter of the Li family. Since the day I met you, amid the ruin of my country and the loss of my family, I've thrown myself into poetry and wine every day.

My home is west of Zhuluo. I am Shi Yiguang. May I ask where you are from, Madam?

A march of a thousand miles takes its toll on a third of the troops; one victory leaves ten thousand dead.

My writing is awful. Feel free to criticize if you don't like it.
