The story of King Xiang’s intention to have a goddess but not his intention comes from Song Yu’s "Ode to the Goddess", which means that King Xiang of Chu loved the goddess and pursued it hard, but the goddess had no intention of meeting him. It is a metaphor for unrequited love, like falling flowers and flowing water.
"Goddess Fu" follows "Gaotang Fu". The late-reflecting writing in "Gaotang Fu" seemed to arouse King Xiang of Chu and even the readers' nostalgia for the goddess of Wushan. It was only in "Goddess Fu" that this beautiful goddess who was invisible in the clouds and smoke, and who was absent for a long time, finally appeared. The author's writing appears gracefully.
However, the author did not let her meet King Xiang of Chu, who had long been fascinated by her, but she faintly appeared in the "dream" of his courtier Song Yu, which is quite intriguing.

Hundreds of years later, Cao Zhi, "the hero of Jian'an", was inspired by this gift and created an image of the Luo Shen with the same beautiful expression with his superb color brushes. Only then did the Wushan Goddess have a pure and pure goddess sister in the northern country, who would shine with her throughout the ages.
Song Yu, also known as Ziyuan, was born in Yan (now Yicheng, Xiangfan) during the Warring States Period, and was a writer of Ci and Fu in the Chu Kingdom. Born after Qu Yuan, he may be said to be Qu Yuan's disciple. He once served as King Qingxiang of Chu. Hao Ci Fu is the master of Ci Fu after Qu Yuan, and is as famous as Tang Le and Jing Cha. According to legend, he wrote many poems and poems. "Hanshu Volume 30 Yiwenzhi 10" contains 16 poems, many of which are lost today.
The popular works include "Nine Bian", "Feng Fu", "Gaotang Fu", "Dengtuzi Lustful Fu", etc., but some people suspect that the last three were not written by him. The so-called allusions of "Lower Liba people", "Bright spring and white snow", and "Qu Gao and few" all come from him.
