It is 423 kilometers long and cuts through the mountains of western Hubei on the eastern edge of the Yunnan-Guizhou Plateau from west to east. The basin is picturesque and picturesque, known as the 800-mile Qingjiang Gallery. Fobao Mountain is one of the main sources of the Qingjiang River; the Yujiang River originates from Wudaohe and Yuequanba in Meiziping, Fobao Mountain, and is called the front river and the back river. After entering Zhonglu Town, it merges and enters Chongqing City from northeast to southwest. It flows into the Wujiang River in Pengshui County, with a total length of 170 kilometers. The two banks of the Yujiang River are covered with clouds on the peaks, thousands of mountains are colorful, and the strange peaks and rocks are in various shapes. The natural scenery is beautiful and magnificent. It is a rare river that flows backwards from east to west.Since the Tang Dynasty, the feudal dynasties have adopted the management method of "using barbarians to control barbarians and using barbarians to rule barbarians" for remote barbarian areas. The local Tusi governed the local people and had the power of life and death over the villagers in the area under their jurisdiction. The Tusi had to pay tribute to the court every year, and their descendants inherited the throne. In the 17th year of Zhizheng in the Yuan Dynasty, the Shinan Tusi implemented a divided governance, and the Zhonglu Tusi was officially established. Because the chieftain's surname was Tan, it was also called the Tan Tusi. There were 16 chieftains in succession. In the 13th year of Yongzheng in the Qing Dynasty, the Tusi was changed to a regular official, and it existed independently for nearly 400 years. The feudal dynasty-ruled areas and the Tusi-ruled areas implemented the management method of "the mountains belong to the locals, and the mountains belong to the regular officials". The mountains were managed by hereditary Tusi, and the mountains were managed by regular officials sent by the feudal dynasty. Fobao Mountain was the dividing line between the Zhonglu Tusi and the Yuan, Ming and Qing dynasties at that time.During the Yuan, Ming and Qing dynasties, Fobao Mountain was the boundary mountain between the Tusi of Zhonglu and the feudal dynasty. The Tusi governed the area inside the mountain, and the officials governed the area outside the mountain. According to local customs, "barbarians" could not intermarry. One year, when Tusi Tan's daughter, Tan Xilan, went to Fobao Mountain to pick water shield, she accidentally fell into a deep pond. A Han young man, Zeng Xianwa, happened to pass by and rescued her. The two fell in love at first sight and secretly got engaged. Because "barbarians" could not intermarry, this marriage was strongly opposed by both parents. For love, the two eloped without hesitation. After the tribe members found out, they chased after them. They ran all the way to Gaodongyan, and saw a thousand-foot cliff in front of them. At this critical moment, a cloud suddenly floated from Baiyun Temple, carrying the two to land safely... In order to avoid being discovered by outsiders, they hid in the valley of Fobao Mountain from then on, never leaving each other, staying together forever, and living a paradise life of chopping wood, fishing, hunting, and weaving. A hundred years after their death, the two tombs buried together turned into two parallel ponds. Everyone firmly believed that they were the incarnation of the lovers, so they called them "Couple Ponds"... The love between Qin Xilan and Zeng Xianwa finally moved the chieftain of Zhonglu, who took the initiative to overturn the boundary marker on the boundary mountain. From then on, the barbarians and the Han people intermarried, helped each other, and shared prosperity.
