But Zhu Pei was a disciple of Ma, and Liang died of depression. Later, I met Liang's tomb on the bridal road. The tomb opened and came into one. It's the main story.

Character experience

In other words, Zhu Yingtai humbly convinced her parents to dress up as a man and go to Hangzhou to study. At this time, she just turned 14. It's in March of spring, with peach and plum fragrance and grass growing in the south of the Yangtze River. Zhu Yingtai and her family members walked slowly. In a beautiful roadside pavilion with mixed flowers and trees, they met Liang Shanbo from the trade city. They met at first sight and had a good talk. They became brothers of different surnames and went together. They soon went to Chongqi academy outside Hangzhou to study poetry. In Kawakami, Tzu said, "time flies like this!" Three years later, Liang Shanbo, who was a little dull and one year older than Zhu Yingtai, didn't realize that Zhu Yingtai was a girl.

Three years is not a short time. Zhu Yingtai has shown his love for many times, but he is afraid that if he is careless, he will be out of control. Liang Shanbo has a book about brotherhood, but he has no special feelings. It happened that Zhu Yingtai's mother was ill. Zhu Yingtai rushed back to his hometown, and Liang Shanbo reluctantly sent him one journey after another. Soon after, Liang Shanbo learned that Zhu Yingtai was a pink lady, and after returning home, he was betrothed to a family surnamed MA in Maocheng. People are not plants. Liang Shanbo can't wait to get to Zhu '. It's so hard to see each other. It's so passionate and heartless.

For three years, my classmates have learned from each other and taken care of and supported each other; my style shows reading and writing; I stroll through the flowers in spring and talk about my ideals in autumn; I care about diseases and share happiness. Bit by bit of the past are turned into deep-rooted Acacia, a little Acacia, thousands of tenderness, from the depths of memory, such as silkworms spinning, continuous.

It's only strange that Liang Shanbo didn't understand the customs. It's only strange that Zhu Yingtai didn't tell his parents about his affection for Liang Shanbo. He agreed to the marriage proposal of the Ma family when the man and the woman were married. Since there was a marriage contract, it could not be changed at will. At that time, the gentry was in vogue. They attached importance to family status and stressed the importance of reading. Zhu and Ma are respectable families who have moved from the north. Zhu's family can't lose face because of taking care of their little daughter.

Ask the world what love is, only teach people to promise life and death. Zhu Yingtai knows that she is deeply in love with Liang Shanbo. She thinks that Liang Shanbo doesn't love her, so she agrees to the Ma family's proposal. Liang Shanbo gives her heart, but her heart is broken. People and things, a few yuan lack. engagement! The engagement can't be broken. What should we do? The infatuated woman uses "procrastination tactics" in the hope of taking time to change everything. Zhu Yingtai privately sent a letter to Liang Shanbo, hoping that he would bear everything for a while, strive for fame and fame, and try to turn everything around with the help of his great momentum. He also expressed his unremitting love for Liang Shanbo.

One year later, two years later, Zhu Yingtai was nearly 20 years old. In the past, most of her daughters got married at the age of 14, and the age of 17 or 18 was generally recognized as the age suitable for marriage. Although the Ma family urged her again and again, and her parents were also anxious, Zhu Yingtai refused to nod her head. Even though she threatened her death, she finally got the permission of both families and got married after Zhu Yingtai was over 20 years old I'll talk about it on my birthday.

Sure enough, the emperor did his best. Driven by the great power of love, Liang Shanbo finally gained fame and was appointed by the emperor as the county magistrate of the Trade City, which is today Ningbo, Zhejiang Province. Ningbo is located at the confluence of Yongjiang River and Yaojiang River. It is about 40 li away from the sea. The river is clear and deep, and there is no dangerous silt. It is convenient for boats to navigate. In the Tang Dynasty, it became a main route for Japanese to pay tribute and trade. In the Eastern Jin Dynasty, although there was no contact with foreign countries, the prosperity of Shangqu and the convergence of boats and boats made it a big commercial port.

After liang Shanbo took office, he was busy with administration and hearing lawsuits. For the time being, he could not concentrate on his personal affairs. When everything was ready, he could not act rashly. The Ma family in the trade city has been an official for generations, and the clan is prosperous. Liang Shanbo really can't think of any good reason to seize the love. Because of love, there is worry, because of love, there is fear. Liang Shanbo, who was worried and depressed, died of a sudden illness.

Like a bolt from the blue, Zhu Yingtai was stunned at first, and then burst into tears. He cried for Liang Lang's pity, his own sorrow, and even his incompetence. On this side, there are gloomy clouds, and there are endless reminders. Zhu Yingtai's parents tried every means to persuade him and plead with him. Zhu Yingtai was totally disappointed, and there was no reason to put off any more, so he agreed to marry Ma's family.

After liang Shanbo died, his relatives and friends buried him at the foot of shaojiadu mountain in the western suburb of the trade city according to his will, which means to see Zhu Yingtai passing by when he got married. Zhu Yingtai is naturally for the sake of his lover. He has to go through shaojiadu when he gets married. He also asked for a visit to the tomb of his former classmate friend Liang Shanbo. It's not easy for parents of both sides to refuse because of their nostalgic friendship.

When people in the north get married, the bridegroom rides a horse and the bride takes a sedan chair; when people in the south, especially in the south of the Yangtze River, they usually get married by boat. When Zhu Yingtai's boat passed shaojiadu, the Ma family's deacon and others wanted to sail with the wind, so that the boat could not reach the shore before passing shaojiadu. If you want to pay homage to the tomb, it is not too late to go with the bridegroom after the three dynasties. Unexpectedly, when the boat arrived at shaojiadu, there was a strong wind and the river was rough. The boat pulled in to take shelter from the wind, so Zhu Yingtai went ashore to worship Liang Shanbo's grave. There was a wail, heartbroken, and the sky was shaking in an instant. The sand was flying away, and the day was gray. When the deacons who met and saw off their relatives were shocked, they suddenly saw a gap more than a foot wide in front of the grave. Soon, Zhu Yingtai jumped in. In a flash, the wind stopped and everything returned to normal.

In fact, when Zhu Yingtai agreed to get married, she made up her mind to die for her love. She thought about throwing herself into the river and hanging herself. She always felt that it was better to hit the tombstone in front of Liang Shanbo's grave than to do it. She originally intended to end her life by bumping into the tombstone after worshiping him. Unexpectedly, she was just as good as she wanted and saved a lot of trouble. At that time, people thought it was Providence, and even the imperial court was surprised. If we look into it carefully, it might have been a tornado and earthquake that day, and Zhu Yingtai's tomb worship happened together, which is called "no coincidence, no book". This is very moving. Prime Minister Xie anzuo invited emperor Xiaowu to seal the place as a "Tomb of righteous women" and set up a temple to worship.

During the reign of emperor an of Jin Dynasty, the country was in many difficulties, and Liang Shanbo repeatedly showed his miraculous spirit to serve the country and eliminate disasters for the local people, so he was granted the title of "king of loyalty and righteousness". Later, on the hillside of shaojiadu, there were big butterflies flying. It is said that the yellow butterfly was Zhu Yingtai, and the brown butterfly was Liang Shanbo.

historical origin

The story of Liang Zhu is recorded in many ancient Chinese books.

Zhang Jin of Song Dynasty said in Qian Dao Si Ming Tu Jing: "the tomb of righteous women is the place where Liang Shanbo and Zhu Yingtai were buried together. After the" reception Temple "in Shili (West) of Yin County, there is a temple." According to Shi Dao Si Fan Zhi, Zhu Yingtai, a righteous woman, was buried with Liang Shanbo in the same tomb Huang Runyu of the Ming Dynasty said in a brief chronicle of Ningbo: "the tomb of a righteous woman is sixteen Li to the west of the county. Old Zhi, Liang Shanbo, Zhu Yingtai two little students. Later, Liang Shanbo died as Yin Ling. He was buried here. Yingtai passed under the tomb and wept. The tomb cracked and died, so he was buried together. Xie anzuo, Prime Minister of the Eastern Jin Dynasty, was granted the title of "Tomb of righteous women." Zhang shiche of the Ming Dynasty said in Jiajing Ningbo Fu Zhi: "Shanbo of the Jin Dynasty is a benevolent person, and his family is a Kuaiji." After Shanbo, he became a Yin official. He was born ill and died in Daoyuan of the Western Qing Dynasty In the Qing Dynasty, Xu Shidong said in Guangxu Yinxian annals: "there is a temple in the tombs of Liang Shanbo and Zhu Yingtai, behind the reception yard in the west of the county."

According to the anecdotes of Ningbo Fu Zhi (Volume 36) compiled in the 11th year of Yongzheng, the story of Liang and Zhu took place during the reign of xie'an in the Eastern Jin Dynasty. Liang Shanbo was from Shanyin, Kuaiji, and Zhu Yingtai was from Shangyu, Kuaiji.

There are records in both Yinxian annals and Ningbo Fu annals: Liang Shanbo was a member of Kuaiji in the Eastern Jin Dynasty. He once served as the magistrate of Yinxian county with outstanding achievements and was awarded the title of "loyal king". According to the records of yizhongwang Temple written by Li Maocheng, the governor of Mingzhou (now Ningbo), in the Daguan period of the Song Dynasty, Liang Shanbo died of illness as a local magistrate. Near Liangzhu cemetery, Gaoqiao Town, Ningbo City, there is a place called "Jiulong market". According to the inscriptions, when Liang Shanbo was a county magistrate, he ordered people to be buried in the Jiulong market because he had worked hard to control floods
