Why is the red bean tree a witness to the lovesickness and wedding of young men and women?

There is a red bean village in western Sichuan. There is a red bean tree, about 50 meters high and 2 meters in diameter. According to legend, it was planted in Tang Dezong Xingyuan in the second year, with a history of 1200 years.

Who planted this tree? Speaking of which, there is a beautiful story.

In the spring of 784 AD, Shi Li of Tang Dezong issued a letter to hold a national examination to consolidate his throne. Liu Chunshui, a scholar in the capital of Xujiachang, is determined to take the exam in Beijing. Miao Qiuju, his fiancee, sent him to the side of the road, and they were reluctant to part. Teacher Miao said, "I don't have any parting gift for you in this exam." I just want to write a couplet: fish in the waves, fish jumping over the dragon gate, ink snow and spring water passing away. "

Liu Chunshui cried in his heart, wonderful! Miao Qiuju is reminding me not to forget my feelings today. So, he handed it up and said, "Miss Xie is in love, and the students have made a fool of themselves: flowers are everywhere, flowers are blooming, and autumn chrysanthemums are always fragrant."

Teacher Miao listens to Liu Chunshui.

Answered her love with homophonic pun, clear pronunciation and mellow voice, meaningful, and extremely happy in my heart. She had a brainwave and said, "Lang Jun, I don't know when we can meet when we leave today. Why don't we plant a tree as a token to relieve the suffering of lovesickness? " Liu Chun Waterway: "What kind of trees to plant?" Miao Qiuju said: "I wrote a letter to the great poet Wang Wei: When those red plums come in spring, they will bloom on your south branch and take them home, for me and as a symbol of our love. We will plant red bean trees. " Liu Chunshui applauded.

Liu Qu Xujiachang bought a red bean tree. They grow well. Liu Chunshui's righteous brother Mo Lianghang found a bookcase on the road, and Qin Jian sent Miao Qiuju away.

Liu Chun has been gone for five years, but there is no news. Miao Qiuju misses Mr. Lang's return under the red bean tree every day. Tears of love irrigate the red bean tree and grow day and night. One day, a gray horse came at full speed and went straight to Miao's compound. As soon as the rider Mo Liangxing saw the veteran Miao, he dismounted and jumped into the tunnel: "I report to the veteran Miao. My name is Mo Liangxing. Five years ago, I accompanied my honest brother Liu Chun to Beijing to take the exam. He used to be a high school flower-exploring athlete, and now he is the secretary of the Secretariat of Chuxiong Prefecture, Yunnan Province. I became the housekeeper of the state capital. Because Amai, the king of Dali, led the rebellion of the king's land, the court ordered his righteous brother go to dali to counter the rebellion. So I have no time to go back to China to worship my ancestors and get married. A few days ago, Mr. Liu unfortunately fell into Erhai Lake in the battle. I thought it was swallowed by a big fish, so I immediately asked the state government for help. Go back to Shu with the official's son's gold and silver jewelry, pass through Zizhou, and bribe the state officials with a large sum of money to buy an official position as a head. I will give this bag of gold and silver jewelry to my subordinates as a dowry to marry Miss Miao Qiuju, hoping that the old subordinates will fulfill it. " I said, taking out a bag of gold and silver jewelry from my horse.

As soon as the old members outside Miao saw the glittering gold and silver jewelry, they immediately smiled and said, "Grinding your head, you said that Liu Chunshui fell into Erhai Lake and died. I want to call my daughter out and discuss marrying you. " So she called Miss Qiu Ju out and said, "Ju Er, Ju Er, listen to Mo Du Tou. Liulang has fallen into Erhai Lake and will surely die. You are so young, you should think of yourself. According to your father's words, how about remarriage to Modutou? "

Miao Qiuju glanced at Mo Liangxing with her eyes and said, "Mo Liangxing, Mo Liangxing, thanks to what you said, you want to take advantage of someone's danger to steal someone else's wife." Then she turned to the outside of the Miao Garden and said, "Father, don't blame my daughter for being unfilial. My daughter and Liu Lang have made an agreement to love each other for life and death. My daughter wanted to see people when she was born, but she wanted to see bodies after she died. She will never listen to stories again and remarry. Say kiss xiu walked into the back room.

Mo Liangxing took out two gold ingots weighing 520 from his pocket and handed them to veteran Miao, saying, "Although good things don't go out, we still know each other. Please accept the veteran seedlings. "

Miao Qiuju returned to the boudoir and meditated alone: Liu Chunshui fell into Erhai Lake, and his life and death were uncertain. His father is a greedy man. If he is greedy for money and forces me to marry Mo Liangxing, it would be unfilial for me to disobey my father's orders. I might as well die for the rest of my life. That night, the moon stars were scarce. She opened the door with hemp rope in her hand, quietly came to the red bean tree and bowed to it. She said: "Red bean tree, red bean tree, five years ago, you were planted by Shiro, and I am in the north and south, and my life and death are unknown. My father now has the intention of forcing me to remarry. In order to keep the oath of that day, I died under the red bean tree tonight to repay Liu Lang's kindness. Haven't you finished? Why kill yourself? Get up and come with me. "

Miao Qiuju's neck rope broke in two. She fell to the ground and got up again. Facing the woman in red, she said, "Miss, why did you save me?"

The woman in red said, "To tell you the truth, I am the red bean fairy in the sky. I think Miss Liu Lang misses the depths of the ocean day and night, so I went to heaven to save you. Two miles from here, there is a bustling town called Du Zhanyi. In the second year of Su Shangyuan, I was appointed as the secretariat of Hanzhou, and I was appointed as the secretariat of Pengzhou, a good friend of the poet Du Fu. The three of them are closely related. Du Fu lived in Chengdu Caotang at that time and often visited Fang from Chengdu to Guanghan, then from Guanghan to Shifang, and crossed the river to Pengzhou to visit Gao Shi. One summer, Du Fu happened to walk beside Wang. Unfortunately, he was caught in a heavy rain. The river overflowed and I was sad for several days. Du Fu lives in Wang Inn. When the rain stopped and the moon appeared in the night sky, Du Fu looked at the moon, thinking of Yanzhou, Shaanxi Province, thinking of his wife and children at home, and wrote a poem "Moonlight Night": in Fuzhou, far away, she was watching the moonlight, watching it alone from the window of her room. For our boys and girls, poor babies, they were too young to know where the capital was. Clouds wet temples, jade shoulders cold moon. When can we lie on the screen again and watch the bright light and stop crying? A few days later, the rain cleared up and the flood subsided. Du Fu crossed the river and arrived in Pengzhou. Because Du Fu lived in Wangtian for a few days, people changed Wangtian into Du Fu's field out of reverence for poets and saints, and built the Adulin Crown at the entrance of the field, where the original Du Fu lived. I see that you have read 300 Tang poems and are called talented women. I want you to go to Dulinguan to sort out your poems, avoid forced marriage for the time being, and continue your good relationship with Liu Gongzi after three years. I don't know what you think? "

Miao Qiuju nodded happily: "The little girl is willing to listen to the fairy's instructions." So, Red Bean Fairy and I went to Du's backyard, read Laozi's Tao Te Ching and recorded Tang poems.

It is said that after Liu Chunshui fell into Erhai Lake, he was rescued ashore by the Bai brothers and survived. After three years of war, he led his soldiers to capture Tudu, the king of anti-thieves. Only when his troops returned to Chuxiong did they know that Mo Liangxing, the housekeeper, had returned to Xishu and made a detailed investigation of the gold, silver and jewels in the vault. Many jewels were stolen by Mo Liangxing. Liu Chunshui was furious and immediately sent a department to catch thieves everywhere, and finally caught Mo Liangxing in the state government. After the trial, it turned out that the thief had stolen gold and silver jewelry and bribed Zizhou secretariat. Liu Chun wrote a letter to the emperor overnight, and went to Beijing to participate in the secretariat of illegally state and Mo Liangxing. Tang Dezong read this document, and immediately became a bribing state secretariat, and beheaded Mo Liangxing. And allowed Liu Chunshui to return to his hometown to worship his ancestors and get married.

Liu Chun, wearing a red robe and a golden flower, walked into the Miao Family Courtyard with his wedding present. When he saw this scene, he trembled with fear. He said, "Three people. For three years, I don't know where my little daughter Qiu Ju is going. Tell the old man how to pay. Tell me. "

Liu Chun couldn't find Miao Qiuju, and she was as anxious as a cat on hot bricks. That night, he wandered alone under the red bean tree, staring at the red bean tree and reciting the untitled poem by the great poet Li Shangyin: "A faint phoenix tail yarn, Frageland.

At this time, I saw a red cloud on the top of the red bean tree, slowly descending to Liu Chunshui, holding two beautiful girls in her arms. I saw the girl with a broom in her hand and said, "I hope you are all right, sir." My beloved fairy has arrived with you. "

When Liu Chun saw the water, it was his lover Miao Qiuju, and he kept thinking about it. They hugged each other tightly with tears in their eyes. Qiu pointed to the fairy with a broom and said, "Liu Lang, go and thank the red bean fairy. Without her help, we would not be here today. "

Liu Chunshui hurriedly threw himself on the ground: "Thank you, Red Bean Fairy."

Fairy red beans help Liu Chun waterway: "Today is an auspicious day for Jinbo Netease blog. Please invite your father-in-law and fellow villagers, and you can hold a wedding under this red bean tree! "

Liu Chunshui and Miao Qiuju were busy for a while, and the red bean tree set up to worship. Teacher Li Si shouted, "A purple flower blooms in the east and a purple flower blooms in the west. When two purple flowers meet, a new person will grow under the tree! One worships the church, two worships the ancestors, and three worships the red bean fairy! " I saw the red bean fairy standing on a red cloud, rising to the treetops, waving to the villagers frequently, wishing the newlyweds a happy marriage, and then Ran Ran rose to the sky. Under the tree, there was jubilation, colorful fireworks, singing and laughing, and a sea of joy.

Later, the Miao family courtyard was sold to Liao and changed into a quadrangle. The red bean tree has also become a witness to the lovesickness and wedding of young men and women.
