| Summary | "牛郎織女傳" by Mingshi Zhu is a novel likely written in the late 19th century. The book centers around the tale of the legendary lovers Niulang (the Cowherd) and Zhinu (the Weaver Girl), whose story is intertwined with themes of love, fate, and divine intervention. It explores their separation due to divine punishment and their longing to be reunited. At the start of the narrative, a poetic introduction frames the legendary context of Niulang and Zhinu, highlighting their enduring relationship and the celestial obstacles they face. The tale unfolds with the heavenly Emperor, Yu Huang, summoning various celestial beings to discuss the state of affairs on Earth, particularly focusing on a character known as the Twelfth Golden Boy, who disobeys divine rules out of infatuation with Zhinu. His folly leads to dire consequences, as he is decreed to be punished by being sent to the mortal realm, thus setting the stage for a series of events that intertwine the destinies of the lovers and the challenges they must overcome to finally reunite. As the characters navigate their afflictions and the consequences of their actions, the narrative promises a rich exploration of love against the backdrop of divine conflict.
