The origin of nouns

Wanquan River was formerly known as "DUOHE". Later, it was changed to its present name, which is directly related to the relationship between Emperor Wenzong of the Yuan Dynasty and a section of Wanquan River.

In the middle of the Yuan Dynasty, tutimer, the second prince of emperor Wuzong, was exiled to DUOHE in Ding'an, Hainan Province because of the conflict of the court. At that time, a famous gentleman and crown official took loyal care of the prince and often took him to visit DUOHE by boat, drinking and sightseeing.

He also personally introduced a beautiful woman named Qingmei to marry him.

As time goes on, the prince has deep feelings for DUOHE and the simple and kind people here.

In July 1328, sun tiemu'er, the tenth emperor of the Yuan Dynasty, died in Beijing. The battle for the throne broke out in the court.

At that time, the prime minister wanted to make nine year old crown prince asukiba emperor, while Yan tiemu'er, who signed a letter to the Privy Council, wanted to make tutimer emperor by force.

After a fierce battle, Yan tiemu'er won and tutimer was recalled to the throne of Beijing.

When he was about to leave the peaceful and beautiful home of Wanquan River, the prince was reluctant to part with him. The gentleman and the crown official led the villagers to Jiaan to send them off. They clenched their fists and called out, "the prince is all right, all the way."

The prince was so moved that he waved goodbye with qingmeiniang's tears. He took a boat to the sea and went all the way to Kyoto, becoming the 11th emperor of the Yuan Dynasty. In 1330, the third year after he ascended the throne, Emperor Wenzong did not forget the benefactor of the crown official. He ordered that Dingan County in Hainan be promoted to nanjianzhou, and granted the crown official the title of Zhizhou. He named "DUOHE" as "Wanquanhe". In order to repay the people on both sides of the Wanquan River and send him "Wanquan" money.

In order to commemorate this period of history, local people built Zhongshui temple to worship the king and built a ferry named Wenzong ferry at the place where they sent the prince and Qingmei on board. If you take a boat to the Wanquan River, you can still see these relics.
