Changhong hangs the moon, which means hanging lanterns on every occasion, which means holding happy events.

Xishen in the East and Suzhou in the late Ming and early Qing Dynasties both refer to Ge Cheng (Ge Xian).

Ge Cheng loves to laugh and often helps the poor. He often holds a banana fan and is alive and well. He loves to fight against injustice, is charitable, and can hold his head high. He is a vice city god. Whoever has difficulties, ask him to solve it. People call him the exorcism general. He can read the Book of Changes and calculate divinations. He once made a lot of noise, shocked the emperor and won the evil on earth.

It is said that at that time, many Suzhou painters visited Ge Cheng and painted his portrait. After people ask for it, they hang it at home, hoping to be happy and praying for peace at home.

This once made the painter's business prosperous. A retired prime minister, Zhu Guozhen (1558- 1632), once wrote an inscription: "Wu Zhongyi's military heart was like a cloud, and he was famous all his life." Changhong hangs the autumn moon in the East China Sea, and Danqing worships General Ge. "

According to legend, once upon a time there was a big Huizhou merchant named Cheng, and he also gave him a handful of Aji. Ge Cheng insisted on not living with her. 10 days later, she inquired about her home address and sent it home to prepare makeup to help her marry the right person.

Ai Ji didn't understand the reason, but fortunately, in the temple next door, an aunt comforted him and said: Ge Cheng is not a man, but a god! When Aji got married, Ge Cheng sent two lanterns, which added joy. After a while, Aji raised a pair of twins. Since then, every Spring Festival or Lantern Festival, Ajie always comes to visit the Western God with a pair of happy daughters.

In the late Ming and early Qing dynasties, Suzhou folk held a happy event, and many people went to Shantang Street to buy lanterns and worship Ge Xian. People worship when they are alive, and then they worship their graves.
