allusion
It is said that during the Qianlong period of the Qing Dynasty, a temple fair was held in Xindi Town on the Jianghai Plain, and there were huge crowds of people.There was a pigeon seller who wanted to participate in a temple fair.Unexpectedly, before his pigeon cage was properly secured, he was rushed away without a trace.

Among the crowd was a girl named Le, who was selling copper flutes, and she was also staggered by the crowd.Suddenly, she felt something tripped under her feet, and when she looked down, it turned out to be a pigeon coop.At this time, she just heard the pigeon's call, so she picked up the pigeon cage and squeezed to the pigeon's side with all her strength.Ge Lang picked out a pair of good "clairvoyance" white pigeons and gave them to Mei Le as a reward, and Mei Le also picked out a good copper flute and gave it back to Ge Lang.Unexpectedly, after this back and forth, the two suddenly fell in love.

The two agreed that after returning home, Ge Lang asked a matchmaker to go matchmaking.But after Le Mei returned home, no one came for a year.Le Mei felt a lot of emotion in her heart, so she wrote a poem and put the silk silk on the "Clairvoyance"'s lap, hoping that it could convey her feelings.

Unexpectedly, "Clairvoyance" was blocked by hungry eagles on the way home, and became a delicious meal for hungry eagles.Just like that, Le Mei sent the pigeon away, and nothing happened.After a long time, Le Mei finally fell ill due to excessive lovesickness, and soon passed away with hatred. Her sincere heart is really touching, but it is not enough for the pigeon seller to fail to keep the contract.
