According to the Records of the Grand Historian (史记), Qu Yuan was a minister of King Huai of Chu during the Warring States period. He advocated the idea of raising the level of the state, enriching the country, strengthening the army, and uniting Qi against Qin, which was strongly opposed by the aristocrat Zilan and others, and Qu Yuan was forced to leave his post and was driven out of the capital city, and exiled to the Yuan and Xiang valleys.

While in exile, he wrote the immortal poems "Li Sao" and "Tianwen" (Heavenly Questions) and "Jiu Ge" (Nine Songs), in which he worried about his country and the people. In 278 B.C., when the Qin army broke through the capital of Chu, Qu Yuan could not bear to abandon his motherland, and on the fifth day of the fifth lunar month, after writing his final poem "Huai Sha", he threw himself into the Miluo River and died.

Legend has it that after Qu Yuan's death, the people of Chu mourned his death and flocked to the Miluo River to pay homage to him. The fishermen rowed their boats up and down the river to salvage his real body. They scrambled and chased him to Dongting Lake when he was nowhere to be seen. After that, every year on May 5, they rowed dragon boats to commemorate him. The dragon boat is used to disperse the fish in the river so that the fish will not eat Qu Yuan's body.

And in zigui, hometown of qu yuan in hubei province, there are also worshipping qu yuan's rituals circulated.

Tang Liu Yuxi, "Race for the ferry song" since the note: "Race for the ferry began in Wuling, and now raise the oars and phase and the sound of the salty call: 'Why in', the meaning of the Swamp Qu."? ?
