Description:
The young jinshi Cui Jun-Chen and his wife, Madam Wang, are a loving couple — he handsome and talented, she beautiful and accomplished, and they treat each other with the utmost respect. After receiving an appointment as county commandant of Yongjia County in Zhejiang, Cui Jun-Chen helps his wife finish a lotus screen in the bold "xieyi" manner, then wastes no time in hiring a boat and setting off.
The boat owner, Gu A-Xiu, was once a robber who killed and plundered; now he runs a boat with his mute son and two boatmen, yet even so the thieving nature of a bandit has never left Gu A-Xiu's bones. Show more Especially after his mute son becomes bewitched by the beauty of Cui Jun-Chen's wife, Madam Wang, Gu A-Xiu once again conceives an evil design to do away with Cui Jun-Chen.
Once the boat had passed the Qiantang River, Gu A-Xiu could no longer restrain his wicked impulse. When the couple were slightly tipsy, Gu A-Xiu, his son and the two boatmen made their move. Cui Jun-Chen's maid was cut down, and to protect her husband Madam Wang had no choice but to pretend to agree to Gu A-Xiu's demands and let Cui Jun-Chen "leap into the river and drown."
Madam Wang knew her husband was a strong enough swimmer not to drown. Sure enough, once Cui Jun-Chen reached the shore he went straight to the local yamen to report the crime. But he had no papers on him, and when County commandant Guo went to the riverbank he found no trace of anything, so the case was shelved.
