🎧  Listen to Introduction

The legend of Liang Shanbo and Zhu Yingtai is spread in Nangang, Baishen Temple, Quanshuiyan in Ganzhen, and Quanshi in Hepeng in Shucheng County. Especially in Nangang, it is almost known to every household, and is known to women and children. Moreover, the Liangzhu opera is banned, and there have been incidents of destroying the stage and driving away the actors and staff. There are still many historical relics of "The Legend of Liang Shanbo and Zhu Yingtai" in Shucheng: 1. The Liangzhu Tomb is located in the Liangqiao Villager Group of Xiangshan Village, Nangang Town, between the 11201121 public monuments on National Highway 206, and there is a stream flowing around the tomb. 2. There is a Chunqiu Reading Hall halfway up Chunqiu Mountain. 3. There are two Zhujiazhuang: one in Quanshi Village, Hepeng Town, and the other in Quanshuiyan in Ganzhen. Zhujiazhuang in Quanshuiyan is the most magical. There is a crescent pond in front of the door, and two ancient tombs are hidden in the sparkling blue waves. The villagers said: The left one is Shanbo's tomb, and the right one is Yingtai's tomb. The historical evolution of "The Legend of Liang Zhu": The top of Liang Zhu's tomb was flattened to become a rice field during the period of agricultural learning in Dazhai, and later changed to a vegetable field. Chunqiushan School was the study place of Wen Weng, the governor of Shu County and the founder of official education in the Western Han Dynasty. Later, it became the study place of Liang Zhu, and the study place of the great painter Li Gonglin in the Northern Song Dynasty. The Liang Zhu Tomb in the Crescent Pond of Zhujiazhuang, Quanshuiyan, is said by villagers to be a cenotaph. It was built at the door for the convenience of sacrifice and in the water to conceal people's eyes. Main value and influence: 1. Zhu Yingtai's request to study in male clothing reflects her strong desire for knowledge and the pursuit of gender equality, which is also an impact on the patriarchal society; 2. Yingtai's death and marriage to Shanbo show Yingtai's break with the feudal marriage system of "parents' orders and matchmaker's words" and her resistance to the concept of family aristocracy; 3. Shanbo and Yingtai's respective deaths show their persistent pursuit of love until death and their lofty praise for faithful love. 4. Liang Zhu turned into butterflies after death. This romantic creative method has been imitated and used by generations of descendants.
