According to legend, during the Warring States Period, there was a civil strife in a certain country and the monarch was killed. However, the murdered monarch had two brothers, and the two brothers were in different countries. After hearing the news that their own monarch had been murdered, they all wanted to return to their own country to compete for the throne. The two brothers borrowed large groups of troops and armies from their respective countries and returned home overnight. But when they reached the river at the entrance of a village, the two brothers met and started fighting. One of the brothers shot the other brother with an arrow, and the brother who was shot fled to a valley with his men and horses. The valley is easy to defend but difficult to attack, but reaching the top of the mountain is not easy either. Finally, with the help of everyone, we successfully reached the top of the mountain. The archer thought that he had already shot the man and there was no need to chase him anymore, so he relaxed and checked the situation around the valley. He thought that the man who was shot must be dead, so he stayed at the bottom of the valley. At the same time, all exits from the valley were closed. He wanted to trap his brother and his men in the valley to death. But the brother who was shot was just pretending to be shot. After escaping to the top of the mountain, he found a secret passage leading out of the valley. He led everyone and quietly left the valley through the secret passage, crossed mountains and ridges, took a shortcut back to his country, ascended the throne, and became the new monarch of his country. This story happened in the State of Qi during the Spring and Autumn Period and the Warring States Period. The monarch who was killed in the civil strife was Duke Xiang of Qi, and the one who finally ascended the throne was the famous Duke Huan of Qi in history.

This tree was planted by Duke Huan of Qi himself, and he used wine instead of water to water it.
