The Origin of the Legend of "Wedding Candle"

Legend has it that at the end of the Eastern Han Dynasty, the peach trees in Mizhi County did not bloom for three consecutive years, just when everyone was amazed. A family in Haowan County gave birth to a baby girl. As soon as the baby fell off the kang, the rich aroma spread, and even shepherds dozens of miles away smelled it, so their parents named the baby Xiang Yan.

Next door to home lived a family named Li, who was rejected by the traitor and saw through the right and wrong of officialdom and lived in seclusion here. Husband and wife, one is proficient in poetry and chess, and the other is good at piano, song, dance and painting. On the one hand, they express their feelings, on the other hand, they cultivate their son Li Chun with books.

After Xiang Yan taught herself to walk, she often played with Li Chun. They were so-called childhood friends. Lao Li has no children, loves the wisdom and spirit of Xiang Yan girl and treats her like a daughter, so Xiang Yan has the opportunity to learn culture from Li Chun.

The Women's University has changed eighteen times. In a blink of an eye, Xiang Yan is a fifteen-year-old girl who can play the piano, play chess, write calligraphy and draw. Li Chun is also a young man nearly 18 years old. He has thick eyebrows and big eyes. He is not only eloquent, but also able to shoot everything with ease.

Xiang Yan and Li Chun's parents are even more congenial. As a result of fate, two families began to raise money for their two children's marriage, and they chose a good day to join this happy marriage.

At this time, things suddenly changed, and a group of soldiers poured into Artemisia Bay. They were desperate and took Xiang Yan away. Xiang Yan was carried by a group of soldiers in a sedan chair, and went all the way to Luoyang day and night.

In this way, Xiang Yan was taken to Yun Yun, and he was very happy after seeing it. Secretly rewarded the military service of sedan chairs one by one, and added rank to the garrison leader of Mizhi.

In front of Xiangyan girl, she shouted to the soldiers in the sedan chair: Good girl, how can you rob me like this! As he spoke, he personally loosened the rope on Xiang Yan. He went on to say to the soldiers: Let her stay with me for a few days and send her home for military service. Hurry back and tell her family that I will treat her as my own daughter.

When Wang Yun's colleagues heard that there was a beautiful woman in Wang Yun's backyard, they tried to meet Xiang Yan many times. I don't know when the official dropped the decoration "The Story of Diusim" on the official hat on the ground while watching the incense.

After people left, Xiang Yan saw such a thing fall on the ground. I don't know what it is, because it looks good, so I just wear it on my chest. Ladies-in-waiting are not like this when they see Xiang Yan. They have more contact with bureaucrats. At first glance, it is the story of diusim. On a whim, perhaps it was a metaphor for those bureaucrats, so I changed my name to The Story of Diusim. When the news spread, diusim's story lost her real name! Respectable, diusim's story, no matter how Wang Yun treats him, misses his hometown elder and lover Li Chun who is far away from home.

It's hard to see the story of diusim's stubbornness. Yun Yun is very sad, and even more unwilling to let her go back to the office. Just as he was in pain, one day, Lu Bu came and joined the story of the loss of Xin in Climbing the Difficult Times-Lu Bu was from Suide. Seeing the story of diusim, he let out a cry of "ah", his eyes glazed over and he was speechless.

Wang Yun saw all this, and a plan to rewrite history was born. This is the story that Wang Yun used the beauty of Diusim to turn Dong Zhuo and Lu Bu against each other and kill each other. After the event, Yun has no intention of letting Dixin go home for a reunion!

After realizing this, Diusim's story took advantage of the hectic situation in his hand and the government, pulled away and fled, and returned to Haowan Village in Mizhi after many twists and turns. Legend has it that this is a love story between Diusim and Li Chun, blessed by the gods. Otherwise, how can a weak woman go home thousands of miles away?

The villagers kept their mouths shut about the story of Diusim sneaking back to Haowan, and made two holes in the hillside shelter opposite Haowan Village to connect with the nearby mountains, so that Li Chun and Diusim could live in the hole after they got married, and planted various trees around the hole to cover the hole.

After the cave was dug by the villagers, Diusim married Li Chun and entered the cave, leading a happy and comfortable life. The story of diusim and Li Chun forced to get married and enter the cave. Later generations admired their strange love, so they called the house where men and women got married "bridal chamber". On the wedding night, the lover enters the bridal chamber, which is called "entering the bridal chamber".

Although this is only a folklore, it can't even be verified, but its purpose is good, and it supports free love and human true feelings in disguise.
