Zhu Yingtai is a beautiful and intelligent young woman. Although traditions of that era discourage females from going to school, Zhu manages to convince her father to allow her to attend classes in disguise as a young man. During her journey to Hangzhou, she meets Liang Shanbo, a scholar from Kuaiji（Kuàijī, present-day Shaoxing). They chat and feel a strong affinity for each other at their first meeting. They study together for the next three years in school and Zhu gradually falls in love with Liang. Although Liang equals Zhu in their studies, he is still a bookworm and fails to notice the feminine characteristics exhibited by his classmate. One day, Zhu’s father asked her to return home as soon as possible. Liang accompanies his "sworn brother" for 18 miles to see her off. During the journey, Zhu hints to Liang that she is actually a woman. Before they part, Zhu reminds Liang to visit her residence later so he can propose to marry her "sister." Months later, when Liang visits Zhu, he discovers that she is actually a woman. They make a vow of "till death do us part" But zhu's parents have already arranged for her to marry a man from a rich family called Ma Wencai. Liang is heartbroken when he hears the news and his health gradually deteriorates. Then he dies in office later as a county magistrate. On the day of Ma and Zhu's marriage, mysterious whirlwinds prevent the wedding procession from escorting the bride beyond Liang's grave, which lies along the journey. Zhu left the procession to pay her respects for Liang. Liang’s tomb split apart, and Zhu dived into it to join him. A pair of butterflies emerged from the tomb and flew away. |
