Master Li knew how a fan made for a male is different to a fan made for a female, so it can fall apart fully, whereas his son thought all fans are made the same way and came to a different conclusion - being broken instead of falling away.Unknownhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13221479312937344103noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6189927003438800028.post-69784786836142944772012-10-30T12:52:58.569-07:002012-10-30T12:52:58.569-07:00It is from the original Meihua Yishu book but the ...It is from the original Meihua Yishu book but the hexagram and moving line are my addition according to the original method.
