The basic content of the story During the Eastern Jin Dynasty, in Zhujiazhuang, Shangyu County, Zhejiang Province, there was a beautiful and intelligent daughter, Yingtai, who studied poetry with her brother since childhood, admired the talents of Ban Zhao and Cai Wenji, hated the lack of good teachers at home, and wanted to study in Hangzhou. Zhu Yingtai, eager to learn, disguised himself as a fortune teller and said, "It's best to let your love go out according to the result of divination." I hope my father sees his daughter Joe disguised as a man, and there is no flaw. In order to disappoint her, he had to reluctantly agree. England and Taiwan Province disguised themselves as men and went to Hangzhou to study. On the way, I met Liang Shanbo, a scholar who came to Hangzhou from Huiji (now Shaoxing) to study. As soon as I saw him, I liked reading each other very much. On the Caoqiao Pavilion, I made a righteous knot in Jin Lan with a pinch of soil as incense. A day later, the two men came to Song Wan College in Hangzhou, where they were accepted as apprentices. From then on, students read * * *, and they were inseparable. Liang Zhu studied in the deep sea for three years. Yingtai loved Sambo deeply, but Sambo never knew he was a woman. She only cares about brotherhood and has no special feelings. I wish my father misses his daughter. I am in a hurry to return home, so Yingtai has to hurry home. Liang Zhu broke up and was reluctant to go. On the way to the 18-mile farewell, Yingtai kept borrowing things to caress and hint at love. Shan Bo is honest and simple, and he doesn't know why. Yingtai had no choice but to lie that her nine sisters looked exactly like herself and were willing to be a matchmaker for Shanbo. However, due to Shanbo's poverty, she failed to arrive as scheduled. When Shanbo went to Jia Zhu to propose marriage, I was afraid that Zhu Fu had betrothed Yingtai to Ma Wencai, the son of the satrap who lived in Maoyicheng (now Yinxian). A happy marriage has become a shadow. The two met on the balcony, looked at each other with tears in their eyes and left sadly. When we leave, we make a vow: we can't live together, but we must die together! Later, Liang Shanbo was named Yin County (now Fenghua County) by the imperial court. However, Sambo became depressed and died soon. He was ordered to be buried in Kowloon Market, a trading city. Yingtai heard the bad news of Shanbo and vowed to die. When Yingtai was forced to get married, she made a detour to worship Liang Shanbo's tomb. Under the guidance of Zhu Yingtai's mourning, the tomb burst, Yingtai jumped into the tomb, the tomb reunited, the wind stopped raining, the rainbow hung high, and Liang Zhu turned into a butterfly, flying in the world. Different versions Although the legend of butterfly lovers is well known, few people know where the hometown of butterfly lovers is and how many versions of butterfly lovers are there in China. According to the relevant personnel of China Folk Association, there are about 10 places in China that call themselves "the hometown of Liang Zhu". There are also different stories about "Liang Zhu" in several places that jointly declare "World Heritage". (1) Yinzhou Edition: The magistrate of the Jin Dynasty married the chivalrous woman of the Ming Dynasty in Ningbo, Zhejiang. According to legend, Liang Shanbo was a magistrate of Yinzhou County in Jin Dynasty and an honest official. Because he offended powerful people, he was mutilated to death, and the people built a big tomb for him. Zhu Yingtai was a chivalrous woman in Shangyu in the Ming Dynasty, who robbed the rich and helped the poor, and was later killed by powerful people. In memory of them, the locals buried them together and got married. Yinzhou has Liang Zhu's tomb and Liang Zhu's former residence. There is an old saying, "If a couple wants to grow old together, the Temple of Liangshan Bo will come". (2) Shangyu version: Zhujiacun is the hometown of Zhu Yingtai. According to legend, Zhu Zu was born in Taiyuan, Shanxi, and later moved south to settle here. They used to teach in Shangyu County, and their descendants moved to all parts of Shangyu. The lyrics of China's first colorful opera film "Butterfly Lovers" are written as follows: "In Shangyu County, Zhujiazhuang and Yushui River, there is a Zhu Yingtai with both talents and looks ..." According to records, there was a large-scale house in Zhujiajian Island Village, which was destroyed by the war, with a living area of about 500 square meters and garden relics. There is a lake near the village called Qianjin Lake, where Jingui and Yin Gui embrace each other, and there are Bai Yun, pomegranate and other ancient trees. There are also ancestral temples and stone tablets that record the history of the Zhu family. (3) Hangzhou Edition: In Song Wan College classmate Liang Zhu's Yue Opera "Liang Zhu", there is a lyric of "Grass Bridge Becomes Righteous", which says that Liang Shanbo and Zhu Yingtai, a woman disguised as men, met on their way to study in Hangzhou, the provincial capital, and got to know each other, so they became sworn brothers at the Grass Bridge, which refers to the Grass Bridge Pavilion next to Wangjiangmen in the east of Hangzhou. According to legend, the place where Liang Zhu studied was Song Wan Academy near the West Lake, so people called it Liang Zhu Academy. Its predecessor was Hongzhi, which was changed to Song Wan Academy in the 11th year of Hongzhi in Ming Dynasty and was destroyed in Chongzhen. After Kangxi in the Qing Dynasty, it was converted into a literary academy. (4) Yixing Edition: The legend of become a butterfly is deeply rooted. The earliest story of Liang Zhu in Yixing is The Story of Shanquan Temple, which was recorded in the second year of Qi Jianyuan (AD 480). It is said that Zhu Yingtai's old house was in Shanquan Temple in Yixing. He studied with Liang Zhu since childhood, and then went to Qilu and Soochow to visit relatives and friends, and gradually developed feelings. The legend of Liang Zhu was recorded in Yixing, and the plot of "become a butterfly" was also formed in Yixing, which is recognized by domestic academic circles. Yixing has names and sites such as Zhujiazhuang and Liangjiazhuang, as well as "Eighteen Gifts" sites such as Kannonji, Lotus Pond, Shuangjing and Jiuli Pavilion. Yixing customarily designated March 28th of the lunar calendar as "Butterfly Watching Festival", and named butterflies after Liang Shanbo and Zhu Yingtai. (5) Jining version: Scholar-officials buried Liang Zhuxiu's tomb together. There is a "tombstone of Liang Shanbo Zhu Yingtai" in Ma Po Township, Weishan County, Jining City, which was built in the 11th year of Ming Zhengde (A.D. 15 16). According to the inscription, Zhu Yingtai lived in Jiuqu Village, Jining, and his father Zhu Yuanwei was very upset because he had no son. Zhu Yingtai disguised himself as a man to study to solve his father's worries. Liang Zhu has been with his classmates for three years. Liang Shanbo died at home and Zhu Yingtai died of grief. The literati were moved by their father's filial piety and devotion to Liang Ya, so they built a burial tomb for them. At present, the Confucius Temple in Qufu still has Liangzhu Reading Room, and there are sites such as Liangzhu Reading Cave and Liangzhu Temple on the mountain. (6) Runan Edition: Liang Zhu's classmates read * * * but were not buried together. Legend has it that in the Jin Dynasty, Liang Shanbo and Liang Zhu were classmates for three years, but they couldn't see his daughter's body. Before Liang Shanbo died, he asked his family to bury himself by the road where Zhu Yingtai's wedding sedan chair passed, so that he could see Zhu Yingtai get married. Zhu Yingtai learned that he was married in mourning, and when he passed by Liang Shanbo's grave, he offered to get off the sedan chair to pay homage. As a result, he was killed in front of the willow tree while people were unprepared. The graves in Liang Zhu are built separately, and everyone has his own grave. Now there is a "Prince Temple" in Runan where Liang Zhu studies, also called "Luo Hongshan". It is said that there used to be a "Luohong College" here. Legend has it that the well where Liang Zhu carried water on Luohong Mountain is still there, and there is a monument beside it, which reads "Zhu Liangjing".
