What are the folk stories about Tomb-Sweeping Day?

In the Spring and Autumn Period, Zhong Er, the son of the Jin Dynasty, went into exile to escape persecution. On the way to exile, in a deserted place, Zhong Er had no strength and could not stand up. He and Minister Jiezitui went to a secluded place, cut a piece of meat from their legs and made a bowl of broth for Zhong Er. Zhong Er's strength improved after drinking.

19 years later, Zhong Er became the monarch, rewarded his exiled hero, and forgot meson push. Some people advised mesons to put a reward on the army. He despises such people the most. He packed his bags and ran quietly up the hill with him.

When Zhong Er heard this, he wanted to push the meson down the mountain, but there were too many trees on the mountain to walk, so Zhong Er wanted to smoke him down. As a result, the meson was pushed to death, leaving a bloody book: "Hope Master Ming."

So this day is Tomb-Sweeping Day.
