A poem says:
A common saying goes: Lust is the root of all evil, corrupting the three cardinal guides and destroying the five constant virtues.
If not for the creation of fate, even life and death are difficult to save.
This story of the spring lantern riddles is truly a tale of a man whose spouse, in life
, upheld the Three Cardinal Guides and Five Constant Virtues, and who , by climbing over the eastern wall, embraced a virgin. It can be said that he gained his wife through this act , and through this union, they forged a red thread of fate. Yet, this did not detract from the refined elegance of the Guan Ju poem. Though it was an occasional act of illicit pleasure, it is a timeless and unforgettable affair, a display of unbridled romance! Chapter One: The Playful Scholar Plays with the Moon at Night, the Charming Maiden Watches the Lanterns at Fifteen . It is said that during the reign of Emperor Xuanzong of Tang, in Renhe County, Hangzhou Prefecture, Zhejiang Province, there lived a man named Jin Hua, courtesy name Shengli. His father passed away when he was nine, and he was raised by his mother, Yan, until he was sixteen. Fortunately, his family was quite wealthy, and Jin Hua was handsome, with clear eyes and bright red lips, white teeth, and a charming demeanor. His mother, Yan, was overjoyed with her son's intelligence and wit, treating him like a precious jewel. She sent him to a private school at the age of seven. Jin Hua was truly intelligent. From the age of seven to sixteen, he studied extensively, mastering the teachings of various schools of thought and excelling in poetry and prose. He was a truly outstanding young man, possessing both talent and good looks. As the poem "West River Moon" testifies: " Born with red lips and white teeth, naturally handsome with bright eyes and clear brows, his charm needs no new clothes, his good looks are unparalleled. He can write a thousand words in an instant, his brushstrokes astonish all who see him. Jin Hua's reputation is excellent, everyone respects him at first sight." Now, Jin Hua was sixteen and still unmarried. His mother, Madam Yan, regularly sent matchmakers to select beautiful women for her son's marriage. Because her son was a womanizer, she would not agree to marry any woman with even the slightest flaw. Therefore, the women she visited were mostly ordinary, and she could not find a truly beautiful woman. Madam Yan, finding the selection process tedious and unsatisfactory, eventually put the matter aside. But let's leave that aside for now. As for those families who had adopted daughters, who wouldn't want to find a good husband for their daughter? Hearing that Jin Hua's mother wanted to arrange a marriage for him, those with daughters, knowing Jin Hua's outstanding talent, were willing to pay any dowry and marry him, regardless of the size of the betrothal gifts. If their daughters possessed even a modicum of beauty, they would go to great lengths to find a matchmaker who praised them as having the looks of Xi Shi and the talent of Wang Zhaojun . They would also inquire about the details of the Yan family's background, and after repeated rejections, those families would not insist. This Jin Hua, though young, was a libertine, like a hungry wolf in heat. When his mother arranged a marriage for him, he wouldn't study all day, his mind racing, hesitant and indecisive, half-drunk and half-awake, as if in a trance, almost as if ill. His desire for a beautiful woman was intense, and he remained so every time. Now, let's turn to a story about Han Yin, a neighbor of Jinhua. In his youth, he traveled to Hubei and Hunan provinces to trade grain. Later, his family became wealthy, and he opened two pawnshops, managing them with six assistants. He himself lived a secluded life at home. His wife, Liu, had only one daughter, nicknamed Jiao Niang, who was thirteen years old this year. She possessed a beauty that could rival the most beautiful women in the world, a face that could shame the moon and flowers. She was also skilled in embroidery, exceptionally beautiful, a truly lovely girl. As the poem "West River Moon" testifies: Her face was like a peach blossom glistening with dew, her body like a ball of white snow, her eyes like autumn waves, her eyebrows clear and bright. Her ten fingers were slender as bamboo shoots. Her graceful figure rivaled that of Xi Shi, her charm surpassed that of Cui Yingying. Her narrow, bound feet were light, and her every movement exuded elegance. Han Yin's daughter was of handsome appearance, and he refused to marry her off to an ordinary man. He insisted on choosing a learned gentleman, which was Han Yin's true intention. Because his daughter was still young and pampered, and he had no son, he was unwilling to marry her off early. Even when the Jin family arranged the marriage, the matchmaker tried to arrange it five or more times. Han Yin was ultimately too fond of his daughter and had some reservations. However, he hesitated and stammered, unable to make a decision. If the matchmaker pressed him further, he would scold and curse her, then leave in his carriage. The matchmaker was so embarrassed that no one dared to insist anymore. Mrs. Liu often said to Han Yin, "Young Master Jin next door is a learned gentleman with an elegant appearance. Our daughter is beautiful and charming, a perfect match. Why have you refused him despite the matchmaker's numerous proposals?" Han Yin replied, "It's not that I refuse, but in my opinion, Young Master Jin and our daughter are a match made in heaven. However, there's only one thing. Do you know it , my dear wife?" Mrs. Liu said, "What is that thing? I truly don't know. Please tell me, my husband." Han Yin said, "Although our family has plenty of food and clothing, and a lot of money..." "We are both over fifty years old, and we have no children. Who can we entrust with managing this family fortune in the future?" Before he could finish speaking, Han Yin burst into tears. Liu Shi, upon hearing this, said sadly, "I, your foolish wife, have long considered this. Although I try my best to keep a cheerful spirit and compete with you for fame and fortune, I only do so to appease you. But when the Qingming Festival comes, I see people adding soil and burning paper money at the graves of men and women, rich and poor, but not at ours. I don't know how many tears they shed." After saying this, Han Yin suddenly burst into tears, and Liu Shi also wailed. Now, there was a maid named Lan'er in Han Yin's household. She was watching the plum blossoms blooming beautifully downstairs when she suddenly heard strange noises and incessant crying from upstairs. She guessed it was the mistress of the wealthy man's wife. She hurriedly ran to the back building and said to Jiao Niang, "This humble servant was watching from downstairs in the front building just now, but I don't know why Master and Madam are crying so bitterly." Upon hearing this, Jiao Niang quickly moved her jade-like steps and golden lotus feet to the front building, where she saw her parents still weeping. Jiao Niang stepped forward and asked with tears in her eyes, "Father and Mother, what is it that makes you so sad?" When the couple saw their daughter in front of them, they stopped crying and rested for a while. The young woman slowly asked again, "Father and Mother, please tell me your troubles. Perhaps I can share your worries and relieve your boredom." Han Yin replied, "You are too young to understand things. Even if your parents told you, it would be in vain. How could you share our worries and relieve our boredom?" Liu Shi hugged him and said, "Since you want to ask, I will tell you. It's alright." Han Yin, unable to resist Liu Shi's repeated urging, could only say with tears in his eyes, "My child, your father and I are over fifty years old and have few children. Although we have plenty of gold and silver and can live a happy life for the rest of our lives, which is better than others, you are still a woman. If you stay for another year and a half..." "After you and I have chosen our husbands and married, your parents will be left alone and desolate, without anyone to rely on. It's truly heartbreaking. But that's a small matter. What if, after we die, who will manage our property? Who will burn paper money and offerings at our graves during Qingming Festival?" She finished speaking and tears streamed down her face. Hearing this, Jiao Niang had an idea and comforted her, saying, "I thought you had something very important on your mind, but it's nothing. It's not difficult at all." Han Yin said, "Tell your parents how easy it is." Jiao Niang said, "If I tell you, I'm afraid you'll laugh at me for being shameless." Han Yin said, "My daughter is truly loving; how could your parents laugh at you?"

The young woman said, "With my looks and family fortune, I should choose a handsome young man to marry into the family. That way, my son will have someone to rely on for the rest of his life, and my parents will have someone to depend on for the future. If I give birth to a son or daughter, it will also be a pillar of the Han family, and then the family fortune will be managed by someone.
I have such a humble opinion, but I don't know what my parents think." Upon hearing this, Han Yin and his wife's worried expressions turned into joy. They said in unison, "We know our daughter is young, yet she has such a brilliant idea. She is truly a heroine among women. If we do this, we will be happy in life and content in death."
The maidservant beside them laughed happily, "Excellent, excellent!"
The young woman blushed with embarrassment and remained silent for a long time. Han Yin asked the maidservant to fetch a pot of fish and tofu wine from the kitchen, along with some delicacies. Everyone drank happily from the first watch until the second watch before they were satisfied. The maidservant then went with the young woman to the back building to sleep.
Meanwhile, Han Yin and his wife, seeing their daughter return to her room, secretly discussed, "Since our daughter is so filial, it's crucial that we carefully search for a suitable son-in-law."
Liu said, "Why don't we send a matchmaker to secretly tell Jin Hua's mother the reason for our marriage? If she agrees, it would be a great blessing for us."
Han Yin said, "Young Master Jin is an ambitious man, and Madam Yan is a virtuous woman; how could she possibly agree to marry into our family?"
Liu said, "As the saying goes, a marriage is destined; even a stick can't break it. Madam Yan has arranged marriages for her son with thirty or fifty men, but none of them were a good match. Perhaps our daughter has a predestined connection from a past life."
The old couple chatted and laughed until after dawn before finally falling asleep.
Now, Jin Hua, having repeatedly failed to find a suitable spouse, was often troubled. It was the Lunar New Year, a time of bright sunshine and clear skies, the moon shining brightly as if it were daytime. Hearing the sounds of drums and music and the clamor of people in the streets, he dressed in fine clothes and came out of his house, inviting a classmate's friend
, Cui Dong, who was two years older than Jin Hua. Cui Dong was honest and kind, and Jin Hua and Cui Dong were very close, so Jin Hua readily agreed to the invitation.
Jin Hua wanted to relax and also wanted to see some beautiful women. The two strolled leisurely. They saw men and women dressed in bright colors, some ugly, some beautiful. Jin Hua was
already feeling a little uneasy. Cui Dong, being an honest man, showed no interest in the woman, who was like a fairy. He walked ahead with his head down, while Jin Hua followed behind.
As he was walking, he heard a woman's voice, sweet and melodious, coming from about five or seven steps behind him. He was a lustful man, and upon hearing such a beautiful voice, he knew immediately that there was an exceptionally beautiful woman in her heart. He hurriedly turned around and saw an old woman, a maid, and a delicate and beautiful young woman who looked about fifteen or sixteen years old.
