"The only one?"
Shen Qingcong looked at him in surprise, asking compassionately, "Hall Master, could you tell me about your experiences since childhood?"
Sikou Yu nodded, leading her to a nearby brocade couch to sit down. He made sure she was comfortable, then slowly started to recount his history.
Sikou Yu was born in 1668, during the reign of Emperor Kang of the Qing Dynasty.
The family he was born into was an aristocratic family of scholars, and they were well off. He was the legitimate firstborn son, loved by his father and mother, and enjoyed a comfortable life. Servants attended to him in droves, and all he needed to do was to commit himself to the study of the classics.
Sikou Yu was blessed with good looks from a young age. At the age of fifteen, he began participating in the imperial examination, ultimately achieving the highest rank three times in a row. This not only brought him fame but also attracted a significant disaster to him.
