Description

Description

The story follows Yu Xuanji, a famous courtesan, and her lover Wen Zhang. Wild and undisciplined, Wen often gets drunk and ends up in trouble. When he is arrested and imprisoned in the yamen, Xuanji has to sell her house to help him out. Later Xuanji meets the scholar Li Yi, who falls for her beauty and spends a fortune to help her. But on their wedding night, Xuanji gives birth to a son in the chamber. The story is intriguing and full of suspense.
