When Wen Zhengming, one of the four great talents in the south of the Yangtze River in the Ming Dynasty, was about to marry Du Yuefang, Du Hanlin's daughter, Miss Du wanted to try Wen Zhengming's talents, so she pointed to the begonia beside the stone and said: "There are gods in the flowers. I just met a guest from Shu." Because Begonia is called the flower fairy, also known as Shu guest. When Wen Zhengming saw bamboo outside the window, he said, "A gentleman in the forest is interested in looking for Concubine Xiang." Bamboo is known as a gentleman, and there is a kind of bamboo called Xiangfei bamboo.

Liu Xiang of Han Dynasty's "Biography of Martyrs: There Are Two Concubines of Yu" says: "There are two concubines of Yu, the two daughters of Emperor Yao, the Emperor Chang'e, and the second daughter Ying." They were the two daughters of Emperor Yao and the beloved concubines of Emperor Shun.

When Emperor Shun was inspecting the south in his later years, he suddenly died of illness in a place called "Cangwu".

The situation is very similar to Meng Jiangnu and Han E, and their tears sprinkled on the bamboos in the mountains, forming beautiful patterns, which the world called "Banzhu".
