天界大闹牛郎织女的星际恋爱
Prologue: The Celestial Chaos
In the realm of Chinese mythology, there existed a tale of love that transcended mortal bounds. A story so profound, it echoed through the ages and still resonates with us today. It is a tale of two souls destined to be together despite the celestial divide between them – the legendary love story of Cowherd and Weaving Maiden.
Chapter 1: The Heavenly Matchmaker
According to ancient lore, the Jade Emperor, ruler of heaven and earth, decided to create couples for his subjects in order to ensure harmony in both realms. He called upon Chang'e (the Moon Goddess) and her trusty companion Yutu (the Moon Rabbit) to help him matchmake among humans.
Chang'e was tasked with selecting suitable mates from among mortals living on Earth while Yutu would choose partners from those residing in Heaven. Their mission was not only crucial but also had an added challenge - they were forbidden from choosing their own kin or relatives as matches.
One day, during one such matchmaking session at Mount Tai (Shandong), Chang'e spotted a handsome young man named Zhang Liang tending cows by a riverbank. She was immediately smitten with his charm and decided he would make an ideal partner for Weaving Maiden who lived amongst the stars as one of ten thousand heavenly maidens responsible for weaving clouds into cloth.
Chapter 2: The Starry Weaver's Tale
Weaving Maiden's real name was Zhinü (meaning 'weaver girl'). Born on Mount Kailash in Tibet, she possessed extraordinary talent for weaving fabric that could transform into anything – be it cloud cloaks or garments made from moonlight itself! Her beauty shone like stars; however her destiny lay far beyond mortal comprehension - among celestial beings where she could weave ethereal fabrics gifted by divine forces.
The heavens' chosen path laid out before her led her away from earthly desires; yet fate had other plans when Cowherd entered her life via Chang'e's matchmaking endeavors. Despite being separated by vast distances between heaven and earth they found solace within each other's hearts.
Their bond blossomed over time through letters exchanged via messenger birds which crossed paths between their worlds. As their love grew stronger so did their longing for one another - even though this meant defying divine decrees!
Chapter 3: The Celestial Rebellion
As Cowherd spent more time on Earth making ends meet while pining after Zhinü’s starlit presence above him became increasingly unbearable; he longed desperately to join her again no matter what cost might come forth laterally!
Cowherd finally gathered enough courage & funds; bought four white horses & set off towards heaven determinedly! They journeyed across riverside landscapes before arriving at Heavenly Gate guarded fiercely by dragon-headed creatures guarding its entrance gates!
Zhinü witnessing this momentous event felt helpless knowing she couldn't allow herself nor others around them suffer any consequences due solely because they fell deeply enamored! Thus began their quest seeking permission form higher authorities granting license allowing marriage amidst these uncharted skies
Upon arrival at courtrooms located deep inside palace walls filled up quickly awaiting decision verdicts that would change course forevermore...
A tense debate ensued involving all parties involved—Jade Emperor included—and ultimately following much deliberation came down unto conclusion reached wherein agreement granted permission albeit under strict conditions known as "Double Stars" rule stating if either party broke vows or rules once established then separation become inevitable... But then again why wouldn’t we expect otherwise?
