Qiao Lian Zhu
Traditional Chinese巧聯珠
Simplified Chinese巧联珠

Qiao Lian Zhu is a Chinese novel of the caizi jiaren genre.[1][2] The earliest extant edition of the novel dates to the early 18th century during the Yongzheng era. The novel was written by a writer under the pseudonym Yanxiayishi (煙霞逸士), with some asserting that it was an alias for the writer Liu Zhang (劉璋, born 1667), although this is disputed by others.[3]

The novel narrates the love story between the talented scholar Wen Xiangru and the two beauties Fang Fangyun and Hu Qianyun.
