Nalan Xingde, a peerless talent, is known as "the first lyricist in the early Qing Dynasty". During the prosperous age of Kangxi and Qianlong, peace and prosperity prevailed. Although Nalan was born into a noble family and was well-dressed and well-educated, he was born with a sad heart and a soft heart. The sincerity in his lyrics showed a kind of noble sadness and a kind of beautiful sadness, which made people unable to bear to read and unable to put it down. Nalan suffered several emotional setbacks and official setbacks throughout his life. In his poems, there is the longing for the parted lover, the memory of the deceased first wife, and the depression of being in a high position but unable to fulfill his ambitions. These touching emotions are contained in Nalan's poems. Every word and sentence slowly settles over time and becomes a tea leaf. Only at the moment we open the book, it exudes the fragrance of Nalan.
