In the Zhengde era (1712), the handsome man Chikushiba Yukina of Izumo Province, known as "Yanji" for his beauty, spent everything he had to buy the world-famous courtesan Katsuragi’s freedom from Shimabara. The two settled in one of Edo’s 888 districts, and their story was widely celebrated for a time. They thought they would live in peace, away from the world, but during an outing, Chikushiba happened to meet the second son of a daimyo, Date Yoshisada. Thus began their tangled fate...
This is a melodramatic story about, "WTF, I thought someone had their eye on my wife, but it turns out he was after me."
A friendly heads-up: 1. This has nothing to do with real historical figures. 2. Don’t expect this story to have any particular moral compass. I wrote it to indulge my own taste for melodrama. If that’s not your thing, please click X and leave without telling me. Thanks.

Ahhh, I am reminded of Wanjiu Ishimonogatari! That's great! I'm so far behind! Reminds me of the sentence "Think of it this way, the windmill with the family emblem printed on it is also blowing the wind of impermanence." Tqltql
So well written! ╭(╯ε╰)╮
The author's literary talent is really good. This article feels really elegantly written!
The article on Red Mansion is very good, why isn't it updated????
Come on, the introduction of the main characters seems a bit delayed at the beginning. Please reduce some relatively detailed foreshadowing of the historical background (if the reduced parts will affect the later plot, you can try to show them one by one in the dialogues, behaviors, etc. Of the characters). Any suggestions, I hope it will be useful? Also: Looking forward to your work☆
