Liang/Zhu is a true and beautiful, sad, and touching love story in ancient times. Zhu ( a young woman) was beautiful and clever, wants to study in Hangzhou. At that time, the woman could not go out to study, the father rejected her daughter's request, Zhu disguised as a man, went to Hangzhou to study. On the way, she met Liang(a young man). At first sight, they had a good feeling for each other, and Zhu loved Liang.
    The two came to Wansong College in Hangzhou City, and since then, they have studied together in the same class. zhu loves Liang deeply, but Liang never knows that she is a woman.
but Zhu's father worries about her and pushes her to go back home in a hurry, and Zhu had to return to her hometown. they were so hard to be separated, they were walking for 18 miles. 
On the way, Zhu hint at Liang which she is a woman and loved Liang many times, but Liang was too honest and simple, and he is puzzled. Zhu was helpless and lied about the nine sisters in her family. Her younger sister looks very similar to herself, and she was willing to be a matchmaker for Liang. However, Liang’s family was poor and failed to arrive as scheduled. 
  
  When Liang was able to meet zhu, her father already forced her to get engaged to another man she had never met. 
A happy marriage has become a bubble. The two tears facing each other, but sadly parted. When parting, they take the oath: we can't live together, but must 
 live in the same grave together!
    
Later Liang became very depressed that he died soon after. when zhu heard Liang died and vowed to die. When zhu's father forced her to get married to the strange man, she pretends to agree and made a chance to visit Liang's tomb. 

Under the grief of Zhu, the wind and rain thunder and lightning crossed together, suddenly the tomb burst, Zhu jumped into the tomb, then the tomb was joined together, and the wind and rain stopped, a beautiful rainbow hung high, Liang Zhu turned into butterflys, fluttering in the world continued their love. I am Chinese, the English not prefer, put the story here, just because many people want to know the beautiful story, I tried my best. thank you for appreciating the music.
