Her father Zhu, unable to overcome her daughter's request, agreed to let Yingtai dress up as a woman's maid and accompany her as a bookboy.

When I came to Caoqiaomen (now Wangjiangmen) in Hangzhou, I met Liang Shanbo, a young scholar from Huiji (now Shaoxing) who came to Hangzhou to study. I had a heart-to-heart talk with Liang Zhu, a young scholar, and became sworn brothers on the spot. This is called "grass bridge sworn".

They came to Hangzhou and studied at Song Wan Academy in Wansongling. After three years of classmates, Shanbo never knew Yingtai was a woman. Later, Yingtai received a letter from home, urging her to hurry back. Yingtai loves Shanbo, but it is inconvenient to say so, so she has to give the white jade fan to Shanbo as a token of love.

At other times, Shanbo saw him off. On the way, Yingtai hinted her love to Shanbo 18, but the honest Liang Shanbo never realized it. When they passed the Phoenix Mountain, Zhu Yingtai said that she had a little nine sisters at home, and she was willing to be a matchmaker for Shanbo, hoping that he would come early to bless his family. This is the "Eighteen Martial Arts".

Shan Bo got the jade fan pendant from his mistress. After learning the truth, he hurried to Zhujiazhuang, only to find Yingtai betrothed by his father to Ma Wencai, the son of the satrap. Yingtai refused to get married according to reason until she died, and met Shanbo in Xiulou to show her heart. This is "meeting on the balcony".

Shan Bo was suddenly hit by this, and he was flustered and died of illness. The British and Taiwan Province people heard the bad news and died in Liang's mourning. This is "mourning". After Ma Jialai got married, Yingtai was dressed in mourning and asked to go through the tomb of Shanbo for sacrifice. I hope my father has no choice but to agree.

When the sedan chair arrived at Shanbo's grave, Yingtai paid homage and wept bitterly. Suddenly, the grave cracked with a bang and Yingtai jumped into the grave. In an instant, the clouds cleared, the rain cleared, and a pair of beautiful butterflies danced freely in the blue sky. This is the embodiment of butterfly lovers, expressing the strong desire that life can't be married, but death should be in pairs.
