On the origin of the Lantern Festival

According to legend, during the reign of Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty, there was a kind-hearted and resourceful official named Dong Fangshuo. One year in the twelfth lunar month, Dong Fangshuo saved a maid-in-waiting who wanted to commit suicide by jumping into a well. This maid-in-waiting is called Yuanxiao. She misses her parents and wants to be reunited with her family, but she can't go home in the palace and can't get over it for a while. Dong Fangshuo promised her to find a way to get her home.

So he dressed up as a fortune teller. Anyone who comes to see him must sign "the fifteenth day of the first month". At that time, people were very upset and even spread to the palace. Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty called his ministers to discuss countermeasures.

Dong Fangshuo said very seriously, "Your Majesty, I know that Vulcan has a hobby. He likes eating jiaozi very much. As long as he has delicious jiaozi, everything is put aside. " Therefore, Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty collected the best glutinous rice balls in the city. Yuanxiao was chosen. She went out of the palace to teach people to package jiaozi and returned to China as she wished.
