Who is the great poet that the Dragon Boat Festival commemorates?——Among the legends of the Dragon Boat Festival, there is one that is to commemorate the great patriotic poet Qu Yuan!According to the "Biographies of Qu Yuan and Jia Yi" in "Records of the Grand Historian", Qu Yuan (about 339 BC - about 278 BC) was a native of Danyang (now Zigui, Yichang, Hubei) in the State of Chu during the late Warring States Period and a minister of King Huai of Chu during the Spring and Autumn Period. Qu Yuan, whose given name was Ping and whose courtesy name was Yuan, but actually his surname was "Mi", not "Qu". According to legend, Qu Yuan advocated the selection of virtuous people and the empowerment of them, the enrichment of the country and the strengthening of the military, and strongly advocated the alliance between Qi and Qin. He was strongly opposed by aristocrats such as Zi Lan. Qu Yuan was slandered and resigned, and was expelled from the capital and exiled to the Yuan and Xiang River basins. During his exile, he wrote poems such as "Li Sao", "Heavenly Questions" and "Nine Songs" which expressed his concern for the country and the people. In 278 BC, the Qin army conquered the capital of the Chu State. Qu Yuan was heartbroken to see his country being invaded, but he could not bear to abandon his country. On May 5th, after writing his last work "Huaisha", he hugged a stone and jumped into the Miluo River to commit suicide, thus composing a magnificent patriotic piece with his life. After Qu Yuan jumped into the river, local people heard the news and immediately rowed boats to rescue him... In order to express their grief, people rowed boats on rivers and lakes, and this gradually developed into dragon boat racing. The people were afraid that the fish in the rivers would eat his body, so they went home and brought rice balls to throw into the river to prevent fish and shrimp from desecrating Qu Yuan's body. This later became the custom of eating rice balls. According to historical records, the earliest person to link Qu Yuan with the Dragon Boat Festival was Wu Jun of the Southern Liang Dynasty during the Northern and Southern Dynasties, in his mythological and strange novel "Continued Records of the Strange Things of Qi". At that time, Qu Yuan had been dead for more than 750 years. From the lost text of "Fengsu Tong" (written by Ying Shao in the late Eastern Han Dynasty) copied by Ouyang Xun of the Tang Dynasty, it can be seen that perhaps Qu Yuan's shadow was already in the Dragon Boat Festival customs during the reign of Emperor Ling of the Eastern Han Dynasty, but this was more than 400 years after Qu Yuan's death. Although many Dragon Boat Festival customs have nothing to do with Qu Yuan, for thousands of years, Qu Yuan's patriotism and touching poems have been widely accepted by the people, so people "cherish and mourn him, discuss his poems, and pass them on to each other." Therefore, the idea of commemorating Qu Yuan has the widest and deepest influence and occupies a mainstream position. In the field of folk culture, Chinese people associate the Dragon Boat Festival's dragon boat race and eating rice dumplings with commemorating Qu Yuan.
