Du Mu's Romantic History in Huzhou When Du Mu was a secretary in Xuanzhou, he heard that Huzhou was full of beautiful women and went to Huzhou to play. Cui, the secretariat of Huzhou, knew Mu's inscription on the title of pastoral poetry [2] and treated it warmly. He called all the famous prostitutes in the state for Du to choose from. But Du Mu read it again and again, and said with some regret, "Beauty is beauty! But it is not perfect enough. " He added: "I hope to hold a boat race by the river for all Huzhou people to watch. At that time, I will walk slowly in the crowd and look carefully, hoping to find someone I like. " Huzhou secretariat held such a competition according to Du Mu's wishes. On that day, there were a lot of people on both sides of the strait, but Du Mu picked a day until the evening and didn't find a suitable one. The ship is about to dock. In the crowd, there is an old woman from the countryside, holding a girl, about ten years old. Du Mu looked at it for a long time and said excitedly, "This girl is really beautiful. The front is really empty! " I took my mother and daughter to the boat to talk. Both mother and daughter are afraid. Du Mu said, "I don't want to marry her right away. I just want to set a wedding date." The old woman said, "What if I break my word in the future?" Du Mu said: "In less than ten years, I will definitely come here as a county magistrate. If you don't come for ten years, marry someone else as you want. " The girl's mother agreed. Du Mu gave a valuable dowry. After parting, Du Mu has been thinking about Huzhou and this girl. But his official position is low and he can't ask to be transferred to Huzhou. Later, it was not his intention to become the secretariat of Huangzhou and Chizhou Harmonious States. After Zhou Yong, a good friend, became prime minister, Du Mu wrote three letters in succession, requesting to be the secretariat of Huzhou. In three years, Du Mu was forty-one years old and obtained the position of Huzhou secretariat. At this time, fourteen years have passed since the agreed time between mother and daughter. The girl has been married for three years and has given birth to three children. Du Mu called the girl's mother. The old lady came to see Du Mu with her grandson. Tu Mu asked, "You promised to marry your daughter to me before. Why did you break your word? " The old woman said, "It was agreed to be ten years. After ten years, you didn't come. This is the only marriage. " Mutu took out the contract, looked at it, thought about it and said, "What she said is very reasonable. If you force her, it will cause disaster. " He gave the old woman many gifts and let her go. For this sad thing, Du Mu wrote such a poem: Naturally, spring came late, and I have seen it a few years ago. Now the wind is full of flowers and green leaves. Su Xiaoxiao, a famous prostitute in the Southern Dynasties, is deeply attached to the West Lake in spring. Looking forward to it!
