The story in Qinyuan, the origin of Spring in Qinyuan

Tang poems have rules, and Song poems have word plates, such as the five laws of poetry and seven laws of poetry, butterfly love flowers, and Qinyuan Spring. [Butterfly Love Flower] is easy to understand, but learn chairman Mao's "Qinyuan Spring. Snow" with Qinyuan Spring. Changsha", the meaning in the text can be understood, but the word plate [Qinyuan Spring] is not clear and difficult to understand. In fact, there are stories in Qinyuan [sneaking laughter]: Liu Zhuang, the second emperor of the Eastern Han Dynasty, was very fond of his daughter Liu Zhi, the princess of Qinshui.

A manor named Qinyuan was built for it, with pavilions, carved beams and paintings, beautiful and gorgeous like spring. When the third emperor, Emperor Liu Zhang of Han, succeeded to the throne, his uncle Dou Xianquan fell to the opposition, flew high, formed parties for personal gain, took advantage of the arrogance, was bold, and often bullied the Yin family, the Ma family's foreign relatives, and the imperial family. He had been coveting Qinyuan for a long time, and one day he told the lord of Qinshui Gongyun that he wanted to buy Qintu, and the princess knew that the purchase was actually a plunder, hindering Dou Xian's power and submission, and then sued Emperor Zhang. [Tears] Emperor Zhang angrily rebuked Dou Xian for being arrogant to the extreme, and Dou Xian fell to his knees in fear and returned to Qinyuan. It is precisely because Qinyuan is so beautiful that the literati use Qinyuan Spring as a word plate, which is still used today.
