| Summary | "Yushi Mingyan" by Feng Menglong is a historical fiction work written in the 16th century. The narrative carries themes of love, relationships, and societal norms, introducing the central character, Jiang Xingge, who navigates the complexities of family, loyalty, and romance following the death of his father. As he grows into adulthood, he faces crises involving love, betrayal, and the societal expectations of the time. The opening of the story sets the stage with Jiang Xingge, a young boy living with his father after the loss of his mother. As he matures, he demonstrates great intelligence and charm, leading to his eventual marriage to a beautiful woman named Wang Sanjiao. The story quickly unfolds into themes of longing and separation as Jiang embarks on a business trip to Guangdong, leaving his newlywed wife behind. Despite her feigned calmness, Sanjiao becomes increasingly distraught over his absence, leading to a tale filled with emotional turmoil, temptation, and the potential for scandal as their fates intertwine with other characters, notably Chen Dalan, who becomes embroiled in a deceptive plot against Sanjiao.
