Who is Zhu Yingtai in Butterfly Lovers?

There was a woman in Guang Chen in the Jin Dynasty. Her name is Zhu Yingtai, and her family lives in Zhujiazhuang, now Zhu Ling Village, which is seven or eight miles away from Zhang Zhu. Her old man's (father's) name is Zhu, and her family is extremely rich in copper coins. Zhu is a girl (girl) who adopted eight children, and her father-in-law (husband and wife) is anxious. Then Guang Chen women (daughters) should not inherit their property well, but must do so. In Guang Chen, the ninth child is about to be born, and the parents-in-law and husband discuss that no matter whether the child is a maid or a child, they should take good care of it. As soon as I was raised as a girl, I lied to my family about "raising a girl", just like raising a girl, making a fuss. Blink of an eye, has grown to seven or eight years old, someone came to fix, Gu also moved in. I wish my husband thought, since he is also a daughter-in-law, what kind (how) wife can he marry? Always look back and say, "Come early, come early, my family will wait for the little guy (child) to see it."

Marriage is easy to push, but learning is difficult to push. I hope you can invite a private teacher to teach at home, and the little guy who wants to study in the village will also study in the study with Zhu Yingtai.

There is A Liang Village in the former village. There is a family in the village whose surname is Liang. He is also studying in Zhujiajian, and happens to sit at the same table as Zhu Yingtai. Liang Shanbo is a smart person who studies. Yingtai supports Guang Chen who never leaves. Liang Shanbo always helps her. I have studied together for several years, and I am a teenager. I have to take an exam. Zhu Yingtai's mother, Lao Zi, refused to give her an exam anyway. Zhu Yingtai knew himself very well, so he told Liang Shanbo, "I am in poor health. Why not take the exam? "

As soon as Liang Shanbo won the first place in the exam, the family went to see Zhu Yingtai: "Brother, if you take the exam together, you will surely win the exam. Your knowledge is better than mine. " Yingtai smiled and said nothing. Seeing Shan Bo's outstanding talent, she already had a desire to admire. She said to Shanbo's face, "Now, I won't tell you the truth. I am a daughter. " Liang Shanbo was shocked: "Don't be kidding, it won't be a daughter!" Yingtai said, "My old man told me to pretend to be a family all the time and asked me to inherit the family business." He also said: "After my parents are 100 years old, we will get married again." Liang Shanbo said, "You will be like this. I will always wait for you. "

After Zhu Yingtai and Liang Shanbo got engaged privately, they acted more carefully, and they were always the same as before. As Guang Chen grew up, he showed some signs to others. You know, it is illegal for Gu Chenguang to pretend to be a man. The so-called inversion of yin and yang is a crime of indiscretion. This made Mr. Zhu very worried, fearing that others would report it. What should I do?

Ten miles away from Jia Zhu village, there is a Majia village, where a man is a big official and a prefect. Ma Taishou's name is Ma Wencai, and he also knows Zhu Yingtai. As soon as he knew that Zhu Yingtai was originally a girl's family, he would ask Lao Tzu to find a matchmaker to come to Zhujiajian to get married. I wish, I'm really happy to hear that it's Ma Taishou. First, Ma Wencai's Lao Tzu is a big official, rich and powerful; Secondly, Yao was not afraid of being reported, so he readily agreed.

As soon as Zhu Yingtai knew the whole thing, he was in a hurry. I made an oath with Sambo that after a hundred years, I would get married and grow old together. What should I do? Then I discussed with Shan Bo privately, and Shan Bo could do nothing. Yingtai said to Shan Bo: "Now it seems that we can't get married while we are alive. If I want to live, I must marry the Ma family. Of course, I will never go to Ma's house. " Shan Bo said: "Although we don't want to live together, we would rather die together and get married again in the next life!" " There is a wooden bridge near the village, so Yingtai and Shanbo ran to the bridge and cried until Guang Chen was sad. They hugged each other and jumped into the pool, causing a white wave.

Zhu and Ma Taishou are both proud people. His daughter Yamato made such a scandal. What kind of statement, or the idea of Ma Taishou? He said that Liang Shanbo and Zhu Yingtai were fairies in the sky, and they broke the dogma. The Jade Emperor sent them to earth and asked them not to reunite for the seventh time. This is the first time not to get together.

The legend of Liang Zhu has been circulating 1600 years. In circulation, various communication sites often add local content, which makes the story fuller and more close to the people. In addition, there are few initial records. Therefore, there are different opinions about Zhu Yingtai's native place, which is puzzling.

Yixing, Jiangsu Province is the first place to mention Zhu Yingtai's native place in the existing records. The Story of Shanjuan Temple in Southern Qi Dynasty (written in 483-493) records the event that Emperor Wu of Qi reclaimed Zhu Yingtai's former residence to build Shanjuan Temple. At that time, the book of Shanjuan Temple, as an important inscription when the temple was built, was preserved in Shanjuan Temple. In the Tang Dynasty, Sikong Li Kun studied in Shanquan Temple before entering Jinshi (to avoid confusion between Qi and Dong, he changed "Juan" to "Quan") and saw the tablet of Shanquan Temple. In the eighth year of Xian Tong (867), Li Kun called Zong Yi and demanded to redeem his salary to rebuild Shanquan Temple. At that time, he wrote a poem entitled "Stone Wall of Shanquan Temple", and its preface said: "Changzhou was separated from Moshan Shanquan Temple built by Emperor Wu of Qi for redemption and was destroyed in Huichang. In the eighth year of Tang Xiantong, Fengxiang asked Kun Li to play heaven and stand on his own feet again. Li Kun Lu is one of the earliest records of Liang Zhu in China, and it is also a strong evidence of the story that Emperor Wu of Qi redeemed Shanjuan Temple, which was built in Zhu Yingtai's former residence. Zhou Bida, the prime minister of the Southern Song Dynasty, wrote in "Go boating" (1 167) that when he thought of Shanjuan Temple, he also said: "According to the old monument, the temple was purchased by the emperor for the Zhuang"; Xue's Mountain Spring Cave (about 1 170) says: "The temple is the mansion"; The Tomb Records of the Spring Festival (1268) said: "The examination of the temple records means that the Emperor Wu of Qi redeemed the old property of Yingtai." In the twenty-eighth volume of Ancient and Modern Novels, Li's Nv and Meng Long said, "There is another woman named Yixing, Changzhou (that is, Yixing, Song), who has avoided taboos. Yixing belongs to Changzhou), which clearly points out that Zhu Yingtai is from Yixing. The Arabian Nights in the Qing Dynasty is also called "Zhu Yingtai of Guoshan (it belonged to Yixing County of Guoshan County in the Jin Dynasty)". From the Song Dynasty to the Qing Dynasty, there were 9 historical books and 12 ancient books, all of which recorded Zhu Yingtai's former residence in Yixing. Among them, after textual research, Shi Nengzhi, the editor of "The Mausoleum of the Spring Festival", also came to the conclusion that there must be a reference, that is, there must be Zhu Yingtai in history.

Zhu Yingtai's native place is Shangyu, Zhejiang, which is the most popular. This theory was first written by Li in Song Dynasty according to the legend of Wang Temple (1 107). There are two references to Shangyu in this book. A man said that Liang Shanbo went out for a study tour and met Zhu Yingtai and asked him where he came from. I wish him a reply to "Shangyu Hometown"; Another place said that Liang Zhu was a classmate for three years. Yingtai thought of her relatives and went back first. "In the next two years, Shan Bo also came back and saved Shangyu." This statement is not recorded in the historical records of Ningbo Song and Yuan Dynasties. It was not until Jiajing's Annals of Ningbo in Ming Dynasty (1560) and Yongzheng's Annals of Ningbo in Qing Dynasty (1729) that Liang Zhu's story was recorded in the columns of "Legacy" and "Anecdote" respectively. Speaking of Liang Shanbo's return from school, he visited Shangyu. The Records of Yinxian County, written by Kangxi, Xianfeng and Guangxu in Qing Dynasty, is included in Li's Wang Ci, which is called Shangyu people. Since Jiajing recorded the legend of Liang Zhu in the Annals of Ningbo, there have been more and more records about Shangyu Zhu Yingtai in ancient books, up to eight. For example, in the Ming Dynasty, Zhu's "Continued Talk about Huan Shui" said, "If you want to go back to Shangyu with your classmates first, then you can swim in Shangyu"; Talking about the relocation of Zaolin's foreign office, he said: After Liang Zhu's classmate, a solo tour of Shangyu was quoted from the Annals of Ningbo. However, it was recorded very late in the county annals of Shangyu, Zhejiang. It was not until the 24th year of Guangxu in Qing Dynasty (1899) that the Annals of Ningbo were quoted and recorded in Anecdotes. In terms of drama and quyi, Zhu Yingtai is a native of Shangyu, mainly after the founding of the People's Republic of China. Because in the twenties and thirties of last century, Zhu Yingtai was also called a Cixi person, Zhu Yingtai, Liang Shanbo, at Ningbo Beach in the spring. After the founding of the People's Republic of China, Liang Zhu, Liu Yin, Liang Zhu and others all said that they were from Shangyu. In particular, the film "butterfly lovers" has a great influence on the spread, and it has basically become a household name in China. Zhai Hao during the reign of Qing Qianlong, a popular editor? Volume 37? There is a saying in the story (175 1) that "Yingtai is the wife of Zhu in Shangyu", which is quoted from Xuanshizhi in the late Tang Dynasty, but many domestic scholars have consulted many Xuanshizhi, but there is no record. Therefore, this statement has been basically denied, and even many Ningbo scholars no longer mention it.

In the 11th year of Ming Zhengde in Jining, Shandong Province (15 16), there was a tombstone of Liang Zhu, and Zhu Yingtai was called a native of Jiuqu Village, Zouxian County. But the tablet also says that the source is unknown, and it is recorded according to legend.

According to the Qing Dynasty Gansu Kangxi and Gan Long's Qingshui County Records, Zhu Yingtai and Liang Shanbo were both Qingshui people in the Five Dynasties, but Gan Longzhi also said that "there is no truth in fiction".

There is also a saying in Henan that Liang Zhu is from Runan, which appeared in 1930s. 1930, Folk Weekly published the Song of Zhu Yingtai circulated by Ms. Yuan Jun in Henan; 1932, she interviewed local folk literature and legends and investigated the legendary relics. According to the records of opera materials after the Ming Dynasty, his hometown is Ma Xiang, Runan. But the surname is Zhu instead of Zhu, yes. Some scholars say that China's Liang surname and Zhu surname both originated in Henan, and Jin moved to Jiangnan because of the Eight Kings Rebellion. However, the author checked the Records of Ruyang County by Kangxi and the Records of Runan County by the Republic of China, but there was no record of Liang Zhu.

In addition, there are many cradles of Quyi and traditional China drama in Zhu Yingtai. In terms of Quyi, for example, Gan Long's Tanci "A New East Tune with Two Butterflies" in Qing Dynasty, Zhu Yingtai's ancestral home was in Yueji, Yue State, and he lived by the Wu Guoping River. At the same time, the tanci "The New Biography of Kingdee" called Zhu Yingtai a native of Xinghua Village in Yuezhou; During Guangxu's reign, the rap "Shuangxian Baojuan" also said that Yingtai was from Xinghua Village, Yuezhou; At the same time, the drum song "Liu Yin Ji" said that Zhu Yingtai was from Baishagang, Suzhou. The story of peony, a wooden fish book in the late Qing Dynasty, said that Zhu Yingtai was a passer-by of Yuezhou Dongda University. There are many native places in operas, such as Huangmei Opera in Hubei, Shanxi Opera, Fujian Opera in Wushan County, Ningbo, Yingtai, Dong Opera in Huzhou County, Yuezhou County, Zhu, and Guangxi Color Play in Zhujiazhuang, Emei, Yingtai, etc. But these are ever-changing legends or the creation and processing of literati and artists, which are not recorded in historical records.

To sum up, the author thinks that Zhu Yingtai is probably from Yixing, Jiangsu. First, the earliest record, more than 600 years earlier than other places; Second, its records are not from legends, but praise the achievements of Emperor Wu of Qi in establishing Shanjuan Temple, which should be more reliable. In other places, it is not only recorded late, but also originated from legends. Especially in some places, history books and ancient books are not recorded, let alone textual research. So the credibility is relatively poor.
