Chapter 1: The Mysterious Ancient Scroll In an antique shop in a bustling metropolis, a young historian named Su Yao was carefully examining an ancient painting that had just been delivered. The scroll was aged and the paper yellowed, yet it exuded a mysterious aura. Depicted on the canvas was a woman dressed in traditional attire, possessing breathtaking beauty and a sorrowful expression, standing within an ancient courtyard against a backdrop of in full bloom peach blossoms. Su Yao was deeply captivated by the painting; she had never seen such a vivid and emotionally resonant ancient artwork. In the lower right corner of the painting was a blurred seal, but the painter's name was illegible. She decided to purchase the artwork to research the history and cultural value behind it in depth.
