妲己再美终是妃
[dá jĭ zài mĕi zhōng shì fēi]
Referring to Da Ji, who was infamous for leading men astray during ancient Chinese history, this phrase means 'Even if Daji is beautiful, she ends up being just a concubine'. This may speak volumes about superficial attraction versus reality, possibly suggesting beauty is but skin-deep while true substance matters most
