The legend of the West Lake?

When Su Dongpo was a secretariat in Hangzhou, he managed the West Lake and did a good thing for the people. After the West Lake is treated, the surrounding fields are not afraid of waterlogging and drought. This year, the weather is good and the crops in Hangzhou are bumper. People appreciate Su Dongpo's benefits in managing the West Lake. During the Chinese New Year, everyone will carry pigs and wine to pay a New Year call to him. Su Dongpo collected a lot of pork, let people cut it into squares and burn it red, and then distributed it to them for the New Year according to the roster of migrant workers who managed the West Lake. In peacetime, every household has a good life. When Guang Chen saw that Su Dongpo sent someone to deliver meat, everyone was even happier: "Everyone jumped up with laughter. Everyone praised Su Dongpo as a wise official and called the pork he sent" Dongpo Meat ". At that time, there was a big restaurant in Hangzhou. When the owner of the restaurant saw people boasting about "Dongpo pork", he discussed with the chef and cut the pork into squares and burned it red. Hang out the brand, also named "Dongpo Meat". As soon as this new dish was introduced, the business of that restaurant flourished. Customers keep coming from morning till night, and killing ten big pigs every day is enough to sell. The restaurant owner was jealous and learned to do it. At one time, regardless of the size of restaurants, every family had "Dongpo meat". Later, after mutual recognition, "Dongpo Meat" was designated as the first famous dish in Hangzhou. Su Dongpo is clean and fearless of power. Treacherous court officials hate him. At this time, I felt even worse to see him loved by the people. One of them, Shi Yu, came to Hangzhou in disguise to find fault. It was intended to frame Su Dongpo. On the first day of his arrival in Hangzhou, Yu Shi had lunch in a restaurant. The waiter handed the menu and asked him to order. When he received the menu, the first thing he saw was "Dongpo Meat"! He frowned, thought for a moment, patted the table and shouted, "I want this first course!" " "He had Dongpo meat and thought it was delicious. He asked the waiter that Dongpo pork was the first famous dish recognized by his peers, so he put away the menus of all restaurants in Hangzhou and returned to Beijing excitedly. When it was suggested to return to Beijing, he immediately went to see the emperor. He said: "Your Majesty, Su Dongpo is the secretariat of Hangzhou, taking bribes and perverting the law, and doing evil! The people can't wait to eat his meat. " The emperor said; "How do you know? Is there any evidence? " The empire presented a pile of greasy menus. The emperor is a fool. As soon as he saw the menu, he was indiscriminate. He immediately issued an imperial edict, resigned from Su Dongpo's post and sent him to Hainan to exile the army. After Su Dongpo changed jobs, people in Hangzhou could not forget his benefits and praised him. In this way, "Dongpo Meat" has been handed down from generation to generation, and it is still a famous dish in Hangzhou today.

Legend has it that a long time ago, in the grottoes east of Tianhe, there lived a snow-white jade dragon; In the big forest to the west of Tianhe, there lived a colorful golden phoenix. Yulong and Jinfeng are neighbors. Every morning, one of them walks out of the grottoes and the other flies out of the Woods, each busy with his own business. One day, one of them flew in the sky, the other swam in Tianhe, and unconsciously came to a fairy island. On Fairy Island, they found a shiny stone. Jinfeng liked it very much and said to Yulong, "Yulong Yulong, look how beautiful this stone is!" " "Yulong liked it very much, too, so he said to Jinfeng," Jinfeng Jinfeng, let's polish it into beads. "Jinfeng nodded, and they began to work. Yulong grabbed it with its claws, and Jinfeng pecked it with its beak. Day after day, year after year, they really cut the stone into a round bead. Jinfeng flew to Xianshan, picked many dewdrops and rolled them on beads. Yulong swam to Tianhe to get a lot of clean water and sprayed it on the beads. Slowly, the beads became bright and shiny. From then on, Yulong liked Jinfeng, and Jinfeng liked Yulong. Yulong and Jinfeng both like their pearls. Yulong doesn't want to go back to the grottoes in the east of Tianhe, and Jinfeng doesn't want to go back to the Woods in the west of Tianhe. They live on the fairy island in the middle of the Tianhe River, guarding their pearls day and night. This pearl is really a treasure. Where the pearl shines, trees are evergreen, flowers are in full bloom, mountains and rivers are beautiful, and crops are abundant. One day, the heavenly queen walked out of the palace gate and saw the bright light of this pearl at once, and she was very envious. Late at night in Guang Chen, she sent heavenly soldiers to quietly take this pearl away while Yulong and Jinfeng were asleep. The queen mother got the pearl and liked it so much that she didn't even dare to show it to others. She hid the pearl in the fairy palace, closed the nine doors outside and locked them nine times. Yulong and Jinfeng woke up and found that the pearl was gone. They are really anxious! Yulong searched every cave under the Tianhe River, but couldn't find it. Jinfeng searched every corner of the mountain, but could not find it. They were very sad, but they searched everywhere day and night, hoping to find their beloved pearl. On the birthday of the Queen Mother, immortals from all directions rushed to the Fairy Palace to celebrate her birthday. The Queen Mother arranged a grand flat peach party and invited all the immortals. The immortals drank wine and ate flat peaches, and congratulated the queen mother with one voice, who was as happy as the East China Sea and lived longer than Nanshan. The Queen Mother was happy and said to the immortals, "Dear immortals, I invite you to see a precious pearl, which is hard to find in heaven and on earth!" " As he spoke, he took nine keys from his belt, unlocked nine locks, walked into nine doors, took out pearls from them and put them in the middle of the hall with a gold plate. The pearls sparkled and the immortals cheered when they saw them. At this time, Yulong and Jinfeng are looking for their pearls everywhere. Jinfeng found the light of pearls; He immediately called Yulong: "Yulong Yulong, come and see, isn't that the light from our pearls?" Yulong poked his head out of the Tianhe River and looked at it. "Yes, this must be our pearl." . Get it back! ""Yulong and Jinfeng immediately looked for the pearl light until they found the fairy palace of the Queen Mother. The immortals put their heads around the pearls and applauded. Yulong stepped forward and said, "This pearl is ours!" Jinfeng also said, "This pearl is ours!" As soon as the queen mother heard the fire, she shouted at Yulong and Jinfeng and opened her mouth to scold: "Nonsense! I am the mother of the Jade Emperor, and all the treasures in the sky should be mine. " Yulong and Jinfeng were very angry when they heard this. They said to the Queen Mother together, "This pearl is not born in the sky, nor does it grow underground. We have worked hard day after day and year after year! " Hearing this, the queen mother was ashamed and annoyed, her neck was crooked and her face was red. She stretched out her hand to protect the golden plate with pearls and told the heavenly soldiers to drive Yulong and Jinfeng out. Jinfeng saw that the queen mother was unreasonable and rushed to grab pearls; Yulong saw that the queen mother was unreasonable and hurried to grab pearls. With three hands holding a gold plate, no one will relax. You pulled me, and when the golden plate shook, the pearl rolled down, rolled to the edge of the steps, and fell from the sky to the ground. Yulong and Jinfeng saw that the pearl had fallen, so they quickly turned over to protect it. Yulong is flying and golden phoenix is dancing. They are in front, behind, on the left and on the right, protecting this pearl and slowly descending from the sky to the ground. As soon as this pearl landed, it immediately became a clear West Lake. Yulong was reluctant to leave its pearl, so it became the majestic Yulong Mountain to protect it. Jinfeng was reluctant to leave her pearl, so she turned into a green Phoenix Mountain to protect it. Since then, Phoenix Mountain and Yulong Mountain have been lying quietly by the West Lake. Today, there are still two ancient ballads circulating in Hangzhou: "The Pearl of the West Lake falls from the sky, and the dragon and phoenix dance in Qiantang."

3. Qu Yuan Feng He He Xiang Liquor

It was in the early years of the Southern Song Dynasty that Zhao established Hangzhou as the capital and became the first emperor of the Southern Song Dynasty. Zhao Gou drank and had fun all day long, and specially set up a Qu Yuan in the Hongchun Bridge in Jiulisong, West Lake, recruiting experts from all over the world to specialize in brewing fine wine for the imperial court to enjoy. Qu Yuan was carefully constructed. A big pond was dug in front of it, and the West Lake water was introduced, and various rare lotus flowers such as ice lotus, red lotus and Anbaili were planted, and winding cloisters and pavilions were built around it, followed by wine-making and brewing workshops. In early summer, the lotus pond is full of dew, and the south wind sends fragrance. The red and white lotus flowers in full bloom in the yard are really beautiful. In June this year, Qu Yuan's pool was full of lotus flowers, and the green lotus leaves seemed to have dried up. Red and white lotus. Like a bright red makeup. The old winemaker is busy drying and making koji. Suddenly, a scholar in his fifties came in at the gate of the yard, wearing a square towel and a blue shirt. When he saw a pool of lotus flowers, the south wind blew and the fragrance was refreshing. He couldn't help but blurt out, "What a lotus! It's really a lotus viewing resort! " While watching, he strolled up to the old man who made wine and asked, "Grandpa, what is this?" The old brewer replied, "This is brewing Qu Yuan." The scholar was deeply impressed: "Although the lotus is good, there is no wine to entertain." Seeing that he was a well-read man, the old winemaker invited him to rest in the Lotus Pavilion by the pool, and said, "Please sit down, sir, and leave me some thin wine so that I can fetch it for you." The scholar smoothed his beard, smiled and nodded, thanking him again and again. Not long after, the old winemaker carried a gourd of wine, put a big bowl on the table, poured it all over the floor and said, "Please use it, sir." At this time, just a gust of wind blew and rolled up the lotus petals in the pool. It happened that a petal fell in the wine bowl, fragrant and fragrant. The old winemaker was about to pick the lotus petals for him when the scholar quickly reached out and stopped him: "Don't pick them, don't pick them! This is a bowl of mellow wine! " On the one hand, he picked up the wine bowl and gulped it down. He repeatedly praised: "good wine, good wine, there is a lotus fragrance!" " The old winemaker listened to the guests' praise for his good wine, poured a big bowl and said, "To tell you the truth, lotus powder is often blown in the yeast of our winery, and the wine brewed is really fragrant!" After drinking three bowls in a row, the scholar greeted the old brewer drunkenly and said, "Thank you, old man, please bring pens, ink, paper and inkstones!" " "The old brewer took the pen and paper, only to find that the scholar spread the rice paper on the table, looked at the pool full of lotus flowers, dipped it in thick ink, and splashed it on the paper. A few strokes were added, and an ink-colored lotus flower came to my face. Still wanting more, the scholar went to Qu Yuan's hut and wrote the words "Qu Yuan's peace and harmony".
