During the Jin Dynasty, Wang Youjun (Wang Xizhi) was known for his handsome and refined appearance. One day, he encountered Du Hongzhi and was deeply impressed by his looks.
Du Hongzhi's skin was as white and smooth as congealed fat, and his eyes were as bright and dark as polished lacquer. Wang Youjun marveled at his beauty, declaring that Du Hongzhi looked like an immortal.
At that time, many people praised Wang Youjun for his own handsome features. However, Cai Gong, upon hearing their admiration for Wang Youjun, commented, "It's a pity you haven't seen Du Hongzhi!"
