Why didn't the gentleman from Beijing 8 1 marry Butterfly Jade?

Because the elders of the Huo family abide by the old customs, they are not allowed to marry prostitutes to the death. The true story prototype of the movie Capital 8 1 is Chaonei 8 1, which, together with the West Sixth Palace of the Forbidden City, can be called the two most famous haunted houses in Beijing. Lu Dieyu, the chief prostitute of the Republic of China, and Huo, the son of a rich family in Beijing, were originally lovers in love.
