This beautiful, sad and touching love story has been circulated for many years in Liangzhu (Maxiang) Town, runan county City, Henan Province. According to legend, during the Western Jin Dynasty in China, a young student named Liang Shanbo left home to study, but he met Zhu Yingtai, a student disguised as a man. As soon as they met, they became like-minded, so they became brothers in Caoqiao and later came to Hongluoshan Academy. In the academy, the two get along day and night, and their feelings are getting deeper and deeper. Three years later, Yingtai returned to China, and Shanbo sent him for eighteen miles. They said goodbye. Shanbo, instructed by his mistress, came to Zhujiajian to propose marriage with the butterfly jade fan left by Yingtai. After returning home, he was sad and angry, and he couldn't afford to get sick and died. Yingtai was heartbroken to hear that Shanbo died for himself. Soon, the Ma family came to get married, and Yingtai was so angry that she got into a sedan chair. The sedan chair detoured to the tomb of Liang Shanbo, and Yingtai insisted on getting off the sedan chair, weeping and worshiping the dead, and died of excessive grief and was buried in the east side of Shanbo's tomb; It is also said that when worshipping sacrifices, the thunder broke the tomb and Yingtai entered the grave. Liang Zhu became a dancing butterfly.
