The Tragic Legend of the Rose
The rose is also known as the thistle flower, white residual flower, and is a good medicine for clearing heat, harmonizing the stomach, and stopping bleeding. There is a tragic legend about the rose. The legend goes that long ago, there was a girl named Rose. Her father passed away early, and she lived with her mother. Their neighbor, a young man named A-kang, was kind-hearted and always willing to help others. He often helped Rose chop wood and carry water. Over time, they fell in love with each other and secretly promised to marry.
One year, the emperor issued an order to select beautiful women for the palace, and Rose was chosen. The officials pressed them to take her to the capital. Her mother pleaded and was only allowed to postpone for two days. The kind-hearted villagers secretly told Rose to hide in the deep mountains and, if the officials came, to say she had died of an acute illness. However, the news leaked out, the county magistrate reported to the court, the emperor was furious, and ordered a pursuit, alive or dead. A-kang and Rose fled to the deep mountains, but how could they escape the horseback troops? Hearing the hoofbeats approaching, Rose resolutely jumped off the thousand-foot cliff to not burden A-kang. A-kang was heartbroken and followed her. The pursuing troops searched and found their bodies at the foot of the cliff, which were taken back to the capital. Seeing the bodies, the emperor was both angry and hateful, and ordered them to be burned in oil, but after a day and night of burning, the bodies remained unchanged and intact. He then ordered them to be cut into pieces, but the steel knives could not cut through. The emperor, ashamed and angry, ordered them to be thrown into the sea, but the bodies did not sink. At this time, there was a lot of抱怨 in the court, and many people condemned the emperor's cruelty. The emperor dared not continue to do evil and ordered the bodies to be fished out and buried at the foot of Mount Tianmu. Soon, a beautiful flower grew out of the new grave, with many thorns on the stem. People say that the flower was transformed from the girl Rose, and the thorns were born to protect Rose by A-kang, hence the name "rose".
