Chapter Fifty: Shoes Passed Through the Banquet, Enchanting Scenes; Peeping at the Bed by the Window, Alluring Beauty Captivates the Soul.
A stream, a few willow trees, and scattered rocks blocked the way out of the Qingxiu Garden.
Those inside and outside the garden needed a small boat to enter or leave.
The Qingxiu Garden, one of the sixteen gardens, was a different place altogether, not easily visited by ordinary people. Emperor Yang and Tuoniang walked hand in hand, unknowingly arriving at the bend leading to the garden. There they saw a small boat moored there. There was no one on board, only an oar resting in the boat. Tuo Niang smiled and said, "Your Majesty, be careful, quickly step onto the small boat." Emperor Yang asked, "Where did the rower go? How will we get there?" Tuo Niang replied, "The rower is right here.
" Emperor Yang laughed, "Can you row a boat?" Tuo Niang said, "If I couldn't, how could I have come out to play? Enough talk, hurry up and get on."
Emperor Yang stepped onto the small boat, which rocked violently, the water splashing loudly. Emperor Yang hurriedly squatted down. Tuo Niang also smiled and untied the oars, got off the small boat, and sat at the stern.
She took the oars and gently tapped them on the embankment stones. The boat swayed, and she turned the bow around, parting the waves with each stroke of the oars, and moved forward. When Emperor Yang looked at the banks, he saw many peach trees and said that this place must be quite beautiful when the peach blossoms were in full bloom in late spring. Tuo Niang said, "Isn't it true? It's quite like a paradise." The green water meandered with the waves, and the light oars quickly parted the ripples. After traveling about five miles, Qingxiu Garden came into view. The garden was surrounded by lush greenery, which made the water in the bay appear even more lovely. Emperor Yang couldn't help but sigh, "Such a tranquil place exists in the mortal world; it's truly a place for quiet cultivation." Tuo Niang smiled and said, "A person with Your Majesty's good fortune doesn't need any quiet cultivation. This kind of realm is only suitable for us." Emperor Yang said, "I only regret that I didn't cultivate in my past life, and that I can't be a beautiful flower like you in this life." Tuo Niang chuckled and said, "Your Majesty doesn't know the hardships of being a woman, yet you envy us. If you were truly a woman, you would never say such things again." After their conversation, they had arrived at Qingxiu Garden. Tuo Niang, holding an oar in one hand and a delicate ribbon from the boat in the other, stepped onto the pier, tied the ribbon to a tree root, and then helped Emperor Yang to the pier. Together they disembarked, tossed the oar onto the grass, and rushed into the garden. Seeing Lady Qin embroidering her little red slippers, Tuo Niang hurriedly said, "Your Majesty has arrived! Lady Qin, please welcome him." Lady Qin tossed the slippers aside and gracefully stepped forward. Emperor Yang had already entered the garden, and Qin Fengqin bowed to greet him. Emperor Yang stepped forward, helped Fengqin up, and then looked down at the double hooks under her skirt, bursting into laughter. Fengqin was quite surprised. Emperor Yang nodded to Tuo Niang and said, "What you said is indeed true." Tuo Niang also smiled and said, "This humble concubine was not deceiving Your Majesty." Hearing their words, Fengqin became even more puzzled, her bright, beautiful eyes fixed on the two of them. Emperor Yang spotted the embroidered shoes Fengqin had tossed on the table. He picked them up and examined them repeatedly, reluctant to put them down. He even said to Fengqin with a fawning smile, "Madam, would you mind giving me these shoes?" Tuoniang, overhearing this, couldn't help but chuckle. Emperor Yang also asked her with a smile, "What are you laughing at?" Fengqin, unaware of the situation, assumed Emperor Yang was angry with Tuoniang and quickly explained, "This child is always a bit simple-minded. Your Majesty, seeing her youth and ignorance, forgave her this time." Emperor Yang, realizing Fengqin's misunderstanding, quickly said he wouldn't punish her, but asked what she was laughing at. Tuoniang immediately interjected, "Madam didn't finish embroidering these shoes, and Your Majesty didn't even look closely before asking for them. That's why I couldn't help but laugh." Emperor Yang and Madam Qin also burst into laughter. Fengqin then said, "If Your Majesty doesn't mind the profanity, I still have some worn nightgowns; you may take a pair." Upon hearing this, Emperor Yang hurriedly replied, "Wearing worn ones would be even better."
Tuoniang then chimed in, "Does Madam know why His Majesty came today?" Fengqin smiled and said, "How would I know?" Tuoniang said, "Even Madam couldn't have guessed." Emperor Yang, fearing that Tuoniang would tell the truth, felt somewhat bored and quickly shook his head, saying, "Don't say anything more; I will tell for Madam." Tuoniang, of course, wouldn't remain silent, and said with a smile, "His Majesty came for Madam's golden lotus feet." Fengqin found this somewhat grating and feigned anger, saying, "Tuoniang! Have you gone mad? How can you talk such nonsense? His Majesty has been here for a long time, and you haven't even offered him tea." Emperor Yang laughed and said, "Tea is unnecessary; let's set out wine." Tuoniang then summoned the other beauties, and after they had greeted Emperor Yang, they began to prepare the banquet.
The food and wine were prepared daily, but fearing they might be left unused, Emperor Yang ordered a feast to be served, and within a quarter of an hour, the table was piled high with food and wine. Emperor Yang sat in the center, ordering Lady Qin to sit to his left and Tuoniang to his right. Fengqin was secretly surprised; why had Emperor Yang ordered Tuoniang to sit with him? Little did she know she had already received his deep favor. After several rounds of drinks, Emperor Yang smiled at Fengqin and said, "The shoes you promised me, Lady, may have been given to me by now." Fengqin smiled and said, "Let me go and fetch them." She left her seat and went inside. A short while later, Fengqin returned with a pair of shoes in her sleeve, sat down again, but did not immediately hand them to Emperor Yang. Emperor Yang then reached out his hand to Fengqin, asking for them. Fengqin said, "Just now, His Majesty said to Tuoniang, 'Don't say anything, I will speak for you.' I wonder what he meant? Please tell me, Your Majesty, and I will give you the shoes." Emperor Yang hadn't expected Fengqin to be so unruly. He quickly realized it wouldn't hurt to say it. He then laughed and recounted his earlier conversation with Tuoniang, even telling Fengqin about their secret meeting. Fengqin finally understood everything and congratulated Tuoniang with a smile.
Tuoniang, however, was deeply ashamed that Emperor Yang was so shameless, not even hiding this from her. When Fengqin congratulated her, Tuoniang blushed even more, lowered her head, and refused to look up. Emperor Yang laughed heartily, "So you can be afraid of people now? Why don't you stop chattering like a nightingale and arguing with me?" Tuoniang ignored him until Emperor Yang asked Fengqin for the embroidered shoes again, no longer bothering to tease her, at which point she finally raised her head. Seeing Fengqin take out a pair of peach-colored slippers from her sleeve and place them in Emperor Yang's hand, she said, "These are the slippers I wore the day before yesterday, they're still quite new. If Your Majesty is tired of them after playing with them, please return them to me, and I will destroy them myself, lest they be left outside and played with by some scoundrel." Emperor Yang laughed, "How could I tire of something so lovely? Don't worry, my lady, I'll take them. Although they won't be offered as incense and flowers, I'll keep them carefully so they don't fall into the hands of some scoundrel." After saying this, Emperor Yang carefully examined the slippers. He saw that the slippers were embroidered with a pink butterfly and a peony, the colors bright and lifelike. Emperor Yang raised his cup, sipped his wine, and without needing any snacks, brought the slippers to his nose and inhaled deeply. He felt an indescribable fragrance creeping straight into his mind. He raised his cup again to drink, only to find it empty. The emperor sipped from the empty cup, and the beautiful woman serving wine hurriedly refilled it. The emperor, unperturbed, downed another cup.
The woman serving wine, initially amused by the emperor's playful manipulation of his embroidered shoe, had become so engrossed that she had forgotten to refill the empty cup. Only after the emperor had sipped from the empty cup did she realize her mistake. Seeing the cup empty again, she dared not delay any longer and quickly refilled it. But the faster she poured, the faster the emperor drank, repeatedly picking at the shoe to accompany his wine.
Suddenly, Lady Qin reached out and snatched the embroidered shoe away. Emperor Yang was startled and hurriedly asked, "Why did you snatch it again, Madam?" Fengqin replied, "Your Majesty is only focused on drinking and not eating any food. How can you not get drunk?" Emperor Yang said, "Water chestnuts are the best accompaniment to wine. Why do you say you don't eat any vegetables?" Fengqin laughed, "It's not real water chestnuts. How can it accompany wine?" Emperor Yang said, "Real water chestnuts don't taste as good as these fake ones. Madam, please don't make things difficult for me." Tuoniang hadn't spoken for a long time, but now she couldn't help but sneer, "Why does Your Majesty say such things?" Emperor Yang said, "You're at it again." Tuoniang said, "Real water chestnuts are inferior to fake ones?" Emperor Yang said, "Of course." Tuoniang snorted, "If we're talking about edible real water chestnuts, then of course they're not as fun as the ones you play with." "If we replaced it with a real, playable red water chestnut, wouldn't it be just as good as the fake one?" Tuoniang said this, and Emperor Yang finally understood, laughing, "So that's how it is. Then a real, playable red water chestnut is much better."
Tuoniang glanced at Fengqin and smiled at Emperor Yang, saying, "Your Majesty has a real, playable red water chestnut right in front of you, yet you insist on playing with the fake one. Why don't you get angry, Madam, and snatch the embroidered shoe away?" Emperor Yang clapped his hands, saying, "You're right, Madam. I have failed you." Fengqin glared at Tuoniang anxiously, saying, "You always have such sharp tongues!" But Emperor Yang's shoe had already hooked Fengqin's red water chestnut under the table. Fengqin couldn't pull it away, nor could she extend it, making Tuoniang seethe with anger, glaring at her incessantly. Tuoniang pretended not to see, continuing to drink her wine. Emperor Yang had no interest in drinking at this moment. He took a step forward and, not content with just hooking her, he hooked up Fengqin's small red feet, held them in one hand and placed them on his knee, playing with them wantonly. Fengqin's cheeks flushed red.
As dusk approached, the beauties lit their lamps, illuminating the scene as if it were daytime. Seeing Emperor Yang lower his head and refuse to look up, Tuoniang secretly peeked under the table and discovered he was already playing with Zhen Hongling. Her brows furrowed, and she deliberately muttered to herself, "The allure of the palm cannot compare to the tenderness beneath the covers." These words reached Emperor Yang's ears, and he couldn't help but raise his head, giving Tuoniang a slight smile, secretly understanding. Fengqin had also heard this and secretly resented Tuoniang's shamelessness, constantly pointing fingers at Emperor Yang. If he were truly being seduced by the covers, how shameful it would be! Thinking of this, Fengqin felt a surge of desire, her heart pounding.
Emperor Yang, seeing Fengqin's allure under the lamplight, found her even more captivating and pitiful. Hearing Tuoniang's words, which resonated with his own desires, he was already unable to resist. At this moment, feigning drunkenness, he said to Tuoniang, "You light the lamp for me." Then, smiling at Fengqin, he said, "May I ask for your help, Madam? I'm already drunk. Please lend me a place to sleep." Fengqin had no choice but to help Emperor Yang. Tuoniang led the way with the lamp, and Emperor Yang put his arm around Fengqin's shoulder, leading them into the inner room.
Tuoniang smiled at Emperor Yang and said, "You must be careful to be gentle, lest you wither away like a flower." Fengqin spat, but Emperor Yang laughed heartily. Tuoniang then quietly went out, casually closing the door behind her. She went around to the gauze window, took off a gold hairpin from her hair, pierced the gauze window, making a small hole, and peered through the hole.
She saw Emperor Yang pulling Fengqin's sleeve and dragging her towards the bed. Fengqin, as if drunk and infatuated, half-pushed and half-refused, a captivating sight, quite amusing. Suddenly, Emperor Yang pulled her forcefully, and the two of them fell onto the couch together. Seeing that they were about to reach a crucial moment, Tuoniang's eyes widened even more. Suddenly, someone appeared behind her and gently patted her head. Tuoniang turned to look and saw it was Wen'er, a beauty from the same courtyard. She waved to her and tried to peer through the hole. But Wen'er insisted on seeing first, pulling Tuoniang back forcefully. Tuoniang was very anxious and whispered in her ear, "Can't you dig another hole and take a look?" Unfortunately, Wen'er didn't have a hairpin. Tuoniang hurriedly pulled one out and gave it to her. Wen'er rushed to take it, but her hands slipped, and the hairpin fell to the ground with a loud clatter. Tuoniang kicked her feet in frustration. When Wen'er picked up the hairpin and went to dig the hole herself, Tuoniang anxiously peered through it. Looking inside, she saw that the bed curtains were already drawn. The bed curtains trembled slightly, and on the floor before the bed, Madam Qin's clothes were disheveled, but nothing else was visible. Tuoniang was quite puzzled, thinking, "What else is there to see? Wen'er has already taken care of everything." Just as she was about to leave, she suddenly heard Madam Qin giggle softly, and a small, delicate red foot peeked out from under the curtain. On the foot was a large red slipper, revealing the soft, snow-white flesh of her buttocks—a truly alluring sight. Tuoniang couldn't bear to leave, holding her breath to look, only to see the foot that had been outside the curtain retract back inside. It was truly a scene of spring's beauty, impossible to contain, a single red slipper peeking out from under the curtain.
