Hung Lou Meng Book I is a classic Chinese novel written by Cao Xueqin. The book is also known as ""Dream of the Red Chamber"" and tells the story of the decline of a wealthy and powerful family during the Qing dynasty. The novel is divided into five parts, with Book I introducing the main characters and setting the stage for the rest of the story. The central character is Jia Baoyu, a young man from a wealthy family who is torn between his love for two women and his duty to his family. The book explores themes of love, loyalty, and the changing social and political landscape of China during the Qing dynasty. The novel is considered one of the greatest works of Chinese literature and has been translated into many languages.Shih Jung perceiving the perspicacity of his speech and the propriety of his utterances, simultaneously turned towards Chia Chen and observed with a smile on his face: ""Your worthy son is, in very truth, like the young of a dragon or like the nestling of a phoenix! and this isn't an idle compliment which I, a despicable prince, utter in your venerable presence! But how much more glorious will be, in the future, the voice of the young phoenix than that of the old phoenix, it isn't easy to ascertain.""This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
