In the late Ming Dynasty, Jiangnan was prosperous at the end of the world; the elegance of "Cai Gen Tan" was the vulgarity of "Jin Ping Mei"; old monks were engaged in business, courtesans paid homage to Buddha; Yuan Hongdao drank tea and arranged flowers to express his spirituality; Li Zhuowu made wine, meditated and continued to burn books; Dong Qichang was a master of both calligraphy and painting, but he was a bully of a country squire; Zhang Zongzi was a young dandy who dreamed of returning to the West Lake when he was old; elegant people see elegance, and coquettish people see coquettishness.
