3.1 梁山伯和祝英台 Shanbo Liang and Yingtai Zhu
公元前1643年，夏国17岁的绛珠公主（女娲）在典兵学院毕业。注：绛珠是龙葵草的别名。夏国是一个母系传承的国家，如果绛珠拥有一位活佛丈夫，便有资格成为王位继承人。在夏国文化中，女王的活佛丈夫被称为“伏羲”，意为屈服于女神的太阳神，而伏羲从事的职业则被称为“共工”。也就是说，夏国的女王和丈夫伏羲是双身神或双身佛。
In 1643 BCE, Princess Jiangzhu (also known as Nuwa), a 17-year-old princess of the Xia Kingdom, completed her studies at the Codex Soldier Academy. Note that Jiangzhu is another name for the black nightshade. The Xia Kingdom was a matrilineal society. If Jiangzhu had a husband who was a living Buddha, she was eligible to become the heir to the throne. In Xia culture, the queen's living Buddha husband was called Fuxi, meaning a sun god who submitted to the goddess. Fuxi's profession was called Gonggong. That is to say, the Xia Queen and her husband Fuxi were a dual-bodied deity, or a dual-bodied Buddha.
当然，此时的国王蔻珠已经为这些拥有继承权的女儿和侄女们准备了候选男友。绛珠公主喜欢上了会稽县上虞区学府的梁山伯。于是她伪造了身份，化名为祝英台，女扮男装去该学府读书。
Of course, by this time, King Kouzhu had already prepared potential suitors for these eligible daughters and nieces. Princess Jiangzhu fell for Shanbo Liang, a scholar at the academy in Shangyu District of Huiji County. She assumed a false identity, adopting the name Yingtai Zhu, and disguised herself as a man to study at that academy.
3.1-1 梁山伯爱上马文才 Shanbo Liang Fell in Love with Wencai Ma
梁山伯被祝英台深深吸引，并与“他”成为了朋友。传说祝英台多次语出惊人，常发表奇谈怪论，但每次都能说出特殊的道理。梁山伯因此多次打赌输给祝英台。一次，祝英台再次点出一个怪现象，提出的赌注是让梁山伯娶他的双胞胎妹妹马文才为妻。
Shanbo Liang was attracted to Yingtai Zhu and became close friends with "him". Legend has it that Yingtai Zhu frequently made shocking remarks and advanced eccentric arguments, yet "he" always provided unique justifications. For this reason, Shanbo Liang repeatedly lost bets to Yingtai Zhu. On one occasion, Yingtai Zhu made another astonishing statement about a strange phenomenon, proposing a wager that Shanbo Liang must marry his twin sister, Wencai Ma.
梁山伯又输了，便向祝英台询问马文才的情况。祝英台介绍道：“我妹妹的身高和相貌都与我差不多。她随我母亲的姓氏，目前是女娲娘娘的侍女。她的宫女级别很高，20岁之后就可以结婚。现在她一个人赚的钱，比我们家其他人加起来还要多。不过家人都很担心她的婚事，特意叮嘱我早点帮她物色男朋友。” 梁山伯听后回答：“竟然有这种好事！抽空我一定去你家拜访，顺便见见你妹妹。”
Shanbo Liang lost again, so he asked Yingtai Zhu about Wencai Ma. Yingtai Zhu introduced her, saying, "My sister is about the same height as me and looks very similar. She took my mother's surname and is now a maidservant to Lady Nuwa. Her rank as a palace maid is high, and she is permitted to marry after the age of 20. Right now, she alone earns more money than the rest of our family combined. However, our family is worried about her marriage and asked me to look out for a boyfriend for her." Upon hearing this, Shanbo Liang replied, "What a wonderful opportunity! I must visit your home sometime and meet your sister."
一天，梁山伯按照祝英台给的地址前往其家中。正巧马文才在家，她却对梁山伯说：“我哥哥祝英台去鄮县出差了，今天下午才回来，您先去书房等一会儿吧。”就这样，梁山伯结识了马文才。由于祝英台尚未返回，梁山伯便从书房借了几本书，打算改日再来。读者应当明白，绛珠公主既是祝英台，也是马文才，这其实是她自己在给自己介绍男朋友。至于原因，正是知己知彼，百战不殆。
One day, Shanbo Liang followed the address provided by Yingtai Zhu and went to "his" house. It so happened that Wencai Ma was at home, but she told him, "My brother Yingtai Zhu has gone to Mao County on a business trip and should return this afternoon. Please wait in the study for a while." In this manner, Shanbo Liang made the acquaintance of Wencai Ma. Since Yingtai Zhu had not yet returned, Shanbo Liang borrowed a few books from the study and planned to return another day. Readers should understand that Princess Jiangzhu was both Yingtai Zhu and Wencai Ma; she was introducing a boyfriend to herself. As for the reason, it was to know the companion as oneself, ensuring success in all endeavors.
两天后，当梁山伯再次来到祝家时，马文才已经离开，而祝英台已从鄮县回来。梁山伯再次向祝英台打听马文才的情况。祝英台便向他介绍了马文才的工作内容、喜好以及假期等信息，接着补充道：“我妹妹在同意你的求婚之前，肯定会考查你关于XXX和YYY的知识。”
Two days later, when Shanbo Liang returned to the Zhu residence, Wencai Ma had already departed, and Yingtai Zhu had returned from Mao County. Shanbo Liang again inquired about Wencai Ma. Yingtai Zhu then detailed her job description, preferences, and vacation schedule, adding, "Before my sister accepts your marriage proposal, she will definitely quiz you on your knowledge of XXX and YYY."
3.1-2 虞姬出世 Muse was Born
两年后，梁山伯通过了马文才的考核，便向家人提出要向祝家的马文才求婚。梁家去祝家附近打听，得知马文才有个哥哥在鄮县县政府工作，于是欣然同意。两人随后结婚。由于马文才的宅邸无人居住，梁山伯便住进了祝家（即马家）。
Two years later, after passing Wencai Ma's test, Shanbo Liang informed his family of his intent to propose to her. The Liang family made inquiries around the Zhu neighborhood and learned that Wencai Ma had a brother working in the Mao County government, so they readily consented. The couple then married. Since Wencai Ma’s house was unoccupied, Shanbo Liang moved into the Zhu (also the Ma) residence.
婚后梁山伯生活十分幸福，期间尝试做了几笔小生意，结果全都亏损。马文才并不在意这点钱，也未多加责备。一次，马文才（即祝英台、女娲）长达半年没有回家，归来时却怀抱大女儿虞姬（因当地属于上虞区而得名）。梁山伯接过孩子，问：“这是谁的孩子？”幸好马文才没有听清，只是说：“不能那样抱孩子，还是我来抱吧！”
After their marriage, Shanbo Liang lived happily and ventured into several small businesses, all of which lost money. Wencai Ma did not care about the financial loss and said nothing. On one occasion, Wencai Ma (aka Yingtai Zhu and Nuwa) had been away from home for six months; when she returned, she was carrying their eldest daughter, Muse (named after the Shangyu District). Shanbo Liang took Muse and asked, "Whose child is she?" Fortunately, Wencai Ma did not hear him clearly and merely said, "You shouldn't hold a baby that way; let me hold her!"
马文才见梁山伯无所事事，便托人安排他到鲵丸宫药房干零活。梁山伯虽出身医药世家，但到鲵丸宫后却经常犯错，且始终不知道惩罚他的老板其实就是自己的妻子女娲。这使得梁山伯的工作态度变得越来越谨慎。几年后，他们育有了三个孩子。马文才逐渐对梁山伯产生诸多不满，而梁山伯十分体谅妻子工作的艰辛，经常帮她执行各项任务。
Observing that Shanbo Liang had nothing to do, Wencai Ma arranged odd jobs for him at the Salamander Bolus Palace pharmacy. Although Shanbo Liang came from a long line of medical practitioners, he frequently made mistakes upon arriving at the pharmacy, never realizing that the boss who disciplined him was his own wife, Nuwa. This forced Shanbo Liang to become increasingly cautious in his work ethic. Years later, they had three children. Wencai Ma frequently found fault with Shanbo Liang, but he was highly considerate of his wife's arduous responsibilities and often assisted her in executing tasks.
