- Wei Ju finds it difficult to compliment him, keeping a respectful distance. The original text reads:
"Associating with literati, yet boasting of martial arts heritage; having a deep but not profound understanding;
Dabbling in music, chess, calligraphy, and painting without seeking mastery, pretending to be profound, but merely imitating elegance;
Preferring ease over effort, admiring talented scholars, commanding laborers from a position of superiority, while looking down on farmers and merchants.
His poems are vulgar and unpleasant, his calligraphy claims to have swordsmanship but is actually aggressive;
Despite having a good fiancée like Shang Guan Lady, he still considers himself a romantic womanizer." - Legendary texts describe Nan Gong Shen in a particularly harsh manner, likely due to Wei Ju's influence
