On a pleasure boat, a chance encounter leads to a woman named Yulan, whose wickedness has led to her being flogged.

Now, Feng Guan, after reading the Japanese poem, found it indeed reasonable. Just as he was admiring it, he saw the boat had reached Yue Fei's tomb. Feng Guan went ashore, looked at the tomb, and then went to the Su Causeway. He saw a boat on the lake with three tables of wine, filled with scholars, and a beautiful courtesan nearby. Feng Guan recognized her immediately—it was Yulan. He was startled, fearing he had mistaken her for someone else. He looked closely and saw that the passengers from that boat were coming ashore with the courtesan. Feng Guan ducked aside and looked her over; everything was correct. He also heard her voice, which sounded exactly like his own. He thought to himself, "This prostitute, you're having fun here while your husband suffers. I wonder where he lives; I must follow this boat to find out." A moment later, they all disembarked. Feng Guan followed behind, and the boat stopped in the bay. Feng Guan went forward and saw Wu Ren come out and take Yulan home, after which the other passengers went inside. Feng Guan, feeling quite confident, went to the Great Buddha Temple and met an elder. Upon inquiring, the elder explained in detail when Wu Ren had moved there to carry out this matter. Feng Guan bid farewell to the elder and returned to his lodgings. The next day, he received a reply and returned to his county to submit it. He then rushed to the prison to see Sun Chang, saying, "It's all right, your wife has been found." Sun Chang said, "So Wu Ren abducted her, causing me such suffering." Feng Guan immediately went to court and vouched for Sun Chang's release. The magistrate issued a warrant for his arrest and sent another warrant to the Qiantang County Magistrate, ordering additional officers to arrest and escort him. Feng Guan, along with a companion, bid farewell to Sun Chang and headed to Hangzhou. After more than ten days, they arrived. The warrant was issued, and the Qiantang County Magistrate ordered local officials to assist in the arrest. Two more constables were added, and they all left through Yongjin Gate, passed Zhaoqing Temple, and went straight to the bay. They saw Yulan about to get into her sedan chair, but Feng Guan frightened her. Upon seeing this, Wu Ren and the two men turned ashen-faced. The servants brought out the cards and showed them to Wu Ren, saying, "Since things have come to this, there's no need to discuss it further. Let's have a drink." Everyone sat down, and Yu Lan went upstairs to collect the silver. There were over two hundred taels. She gave some loose change to Wu Ren to pay off his errands, and kept the rest with her. She packed her fine clothes into two bundles, and gave her belongings to the landlord as rent. Wu Ren dismissed the two servants from Qiantang, ordered a small boat, and headed straight for Yongjin Gate. Yu Lan sat in the boat, weeping, and composed four lines to bid farewell to West Lake: "Since my first visit to West Lake, I've always felt the beauty of the lake in late autumn. Today, I part from you with nothing to give, and frequently shed red tears in the clear stream." After Yu Lan left, some people went to the tower to watch, sighing endlessly. There were also a few lines inscribed: "The prince planned to meet me tomorrow, bringing wine to invite friends. The wind has gone, the tower is empty and quiet, a once pleasant mood has turned to ashes." They reached the shore in a short while, and the group went to Qiantang to be escorted away. Traveling by day and resting by night, they arrived at their destination and went directly to the yamen (government office). The magistrate arrested Sun Chang and Yang Lu and brought them to the court for trial. First, he summoned Yulan and said, "How did you end up following Wu Ren to Hangzhou and commit such a despicable act?" Yulan replied, "Grandpa, my husband is impetuous and unruly, and I was terrified. Wu Ren was going to Hangzhou to do business, and I lost my mind and went with him. I have betrayed my husband and taken all the money and valuables from the house." The magistrate hurriedly asked, "Are you sure you haven't lost anything?" Sun Chang replied, "Not a single thing." The magistrate said, "Wu Ren, that lackey, has completed his five-year apprenticeship; there's no need to discuss that. Yulan should be sold by the government; otherwise, she'll be back in the brothel." Yulan pleaded, "Please, Your Honor, grant me this favor..." No matter how much I have to sell my body, I am willing to redeem myself and become a Buddhist monk for the rest of my life. "The county leader asked Yang Lu: "Why don't you find someone else to marry him and marry him for the rest of his life? Yang Lu said: "Mr. Meng will pay for it." Yulan looked at Yang Lu and said, "Where do I recognize your uncle, and here you are falsely accusing my husband!" Yang Lu said: "Niece, no wonder you don't recognize me. When you were five years old, I was doing business in Beijing and I just came back this year." Yulan said: "Let me ask you, what business does my father do in Japan?" How were the three generations born? Let’s make it clear about my mother’s appearance. Yang Lu couldn't say a word for a while. The county magistrate was furious: "There are such shameless bachelors in the world!" He must have heard that Sun Chang was missing his wife, so he deliberately pretended to be a relative and defrauded her of money, and made up false accusations. Sun Chang said: "Grandpa Qingtian, he invites people to come and ask for money from the villain's gift box." The villain has not been with him, so he will harm the villain. "The county chief drew lots and beat Wu Ren thirty times, and Yang Lu was hit hard for forty times. To find out what happens next, please read the next chapter. Chapter Two: Sun Chang and his wife are reunited; the wealthy landowner visits the release pond. Meanwhile, the county magistrate severely punished Yang Lu with forty sentences and ordered him to be imprisoned. He said, “I will report this to the three courts and have this scoundrel beaten to death to prevent future generations from suffering the same fate. Wu Renfa served five years as a penal servitude at Fuchun Post Station and will be released upon completion of his term. Yulan is willing to become a nun, so let her be spared from prosecution.” Sun Chang reported, “Although my wife has committed a crime, she has been kind to this scoundrel. Firstly, she did not take a single penny, and secondly, her testimony against Yang Lu was entirely for his sake. I cannot bear to part with her for now, so I beg Your Honor to make a decision.” The county magistrate said, “Officials can only sever the bond between husband and wife, not their separation. But this matter is legally permissible. If she is not sent to a nunnery, there is no way to save her. Let her temporarily enter a nunnery, and then I will report this matter again. At that time, both the law and the sentiment will be cleared, and there will be no objection.” He wrote down the entire trial record and added eight lines about Yulan’s decision to become a nun: Shedding her fine robes for simple clothes, she suffers loneliness and desolation after parting from her love. She will no longer see the red leaves of West Lake, but will instead plant purple fungus in the Taoist temple. In the midst of the hustle and bustle, she has no heart to write these eight lines; in the stillness, she ponders deeply. My soul flies back to Hangzhou in my dreams, lingering by the lake, remembering my friends. After the verdict was handed down, everyone was driven out, except for Wu Ren, who was granted bail and sent home. He then made his way to his destination. Yulan returned home with Sun Chang, took out the men's clothes and returned them to Wu Ren, and gave Sun Chang the finest women's clothes. She took out the two hundred taels of silver, weighed out fifty taels, and gave them to Wu Ren, saying, "I'm grateful for your hard work. Go to Fuchun to marry a wife and make a living. You must never come back here." She gave the remaining one hundred and fifty taels of silver to Sun Chang, saying, "Although your wife has left you, I'm giving you this silver first. Marrying another good wife to live with requires patience. If you hadn't committed any crimes, how could I bear to leave you?" She took off her gold and silver rings and several pieces of jewelry, giving them all to Sun Chang. She still had a few taels of loose silver left, and looked at Feng Guandao, saying, "Please trouble Uncle Feng to find a quiet nunnery for me to use as a vegetarian offering. This will help me make a living." Seeing his wife's kindness, Sun Chang couldn't bear to part with her and burst into tears. Yulan also cried, and even Feng Guandao shed tears. He said, “I can’t bear to see you two in such a state. Why not take the silver to another prefecture or county and do some business to make a living? I’ll sell your jewelry for you; we’ll have three hundred taels of silver. Are you worried about finding business? Once we’re away, who will come to sue you?” Sun Chang said, “That’s excellent. I only ask that you be careful, elder brother.” He quickly bought wine and food and invited Feng Guan to eat. The couple rekindled their love. This was also a debt of romance that Yu Lan owed these people, which Wu Ren repaid, restoring their marital bond. Later, Feng Guan redeemed the silver, and he and Sun Chang opened a woodworking shop in the south of the city. The couple earned a fortune and had two sons. Since Sun Chang had left the yamen, he drank in moderation and no longer caused trouble while drunk, so the two families reconciled. Yang Lu was beaten to death by the magistrate. The scholar mistook Zhangtai Liu for real; little did he know that the deception would become reality. Yu Lan still owed a debt of romance, and enjoyed two more springs at West Lake. That drunken, unruly turtle-headed fellow must be guarded against. Now, let's talk about two nouveau riche in Huzhou. One, surnamed Zhu, named Zigui, styled Fangqing, was in his early twenties. His wife had died early, leaving him with only a concubine, a woman from Yangzhou named Qiaoniang, twenty-nine years old, with unparalleled beauty. The other, surnamed Long, named Tiansheng, styled Dading, was twenty-one years old. His wife had also passed away. While in Nanjing, he had met a woman named Xiangjie, twenty years old, from Suzhou, whose beauty was, needless to say, exceptional. Their families lived next door to each other in the bustling area of Qianjie Street. Both were semi-literate, semi-vulgar nouveau riche, feigning refinement with their hats and caps. Zigui, fond of children, had become acquainted with a minor official named Zhang Yang. Seventeen years old, he was beautiful like a woman, quite charming. He would bring Tiansheng over daily, and the three of them would drink and idly play together, occasionally indulging in frivolous pursuits. She was naturally drawn to his beauty and tried to seduce him several times, but Fangqing kept a tight rein on him, and she never succeeded. Meanwhile, a new release pond had been built in West Lake, several miles in circumference, with two layers of banks and the pond itself in the middle, quite tidy, comparable in beauty to the Lake Heart Temple. Therefore, beautiful women flocked from all directions, adding to the splendor of the place for tourists. Every year on the eighth day of the fourth lunar month, the day of Buddha's bathing, the people of the city would buy all kinds of aquatic creatures and release them into the pond, unlike previous years. Zhang Yang, upon learning this, said to Fangqing, "Tomorrow is the eighth day of the fourth lunar month, the West Lake release is interesting, why don't we call a boat for a trip?" Fangqing smiled and said, "Sure." She quickly sent a servant to Yongjin Gate to call a boat and row to the Long Bridge to wait for them. Upon hearing the news, Tian Sheng said, "I'll contribute some money and go for a stroll." Xiang Jie, knowing this, told her husband, "I have five qian of silver; I'll buy some snails and such and go along." Tian Sheng said, "It would be best if Zhu Qiao Niang came along too." Xiang Jie listened and went to the back garden, knocking on the side gate. A maid opened the gate. Qiao Niang, hearing that Long Er Niang had arrived, hurried to greet her. Xiang Jie explained the reason, and Qiao Niang smiled, "Thank you for taking me along, Er Niang. I'll also buy some aquatic creatures and do some good deeds." She then invited Xiang Jie to stay for lunch before taking her leave. Qiao Niang told her husband that she knew Long Er Niang had invited her, and that they should all go for a stroll together. Fang Qing said, "Alright." They prepared food and wine the next day. The next day, they called for sedan chair bearers and carried her directly to the Long Bridge. What will happen next? Let's find out in the next chapter. Chapter Three: Zhang Yang's Clever Plan Leads to a Joyful Encounter; Two Women Mistakenly Believe in Marriage. The poem reads: The scenery of ancient Hangzhou has always been renowned, its green mountains and clear waters a place to wander. A painted boat carries spring away, while a beautiful woman, drunk, sits beside him playing the zither.Now, the sedan chair arrived at the long bridge, and after disembarking from the lake boat, everyone met. Qiaoniang and Xiangjie sat at one table, while the three men sat at another. They rowed the boat to the release pond and looked towards the temple, which indeed seemed to be a grand gathering. A couplet on the temple gate read: "Both vegetarian and meat-eating, relying on the wild game of our mountains. Neither killing nor releasing, letting the pond be vast and the sky high." The five then boarded the boat and went directly to the pavilion in the middle of the lake, where they stayed. Going ashore and climbing the pavilion, they found themselves in a truly delightful and pleasant place. Fangqing glanced at Xiangjie frequently, stealing glances. Tiansheng, seeing Qiao'er, exchanged flirtatious glances. The two women understood, and as the sun was setting, they hurriedly returned to their original spot. The sedan chair bearers, who were already waiting, followed the same route home. From then on, the two families became close, visiting each other without any reservations. However, because Tiansheng wanted to befriend Zhang Yang every day, Fangqing was aware of his intentions.
