The beauty of Qingping Diao

1. I look at the clouds and see her silk robes moving; I look at a lotus blossom and I think of her. If she weren’t a mortal, she’d be worshipped as much as the Moon Goddess or the Mother of the West. 2. A peony branch in blossom could never seem as fragrant or as fresh. No royal concubine can rival her. Even with expensive makeup, they can’t compare. 3. As for the most beautiful flower in the world, to look at her is to love her. This is why, when she goes out for fresh air, the spring breeze hates her.
