The legend of the origin of Aquarius
In Troy, there lived a handsome prince. His handsome appearance is not as good as all the beautiful women in Liancheng.
One day, the gods will hold a banquet, but a girl who poured wine for Zeus was injured, so no one could do the work instead of her. So Zeus was very upset and didn't know what to do. Seeing that Zeus was so depressed, the gods wanted to help find someone to replace him, but Zeus was not satisfied with the girl he introduced.
One day, Apollo came to Troy and saw the beautiful prince playing with the maids. He thought there was such a handsome prince on the earth, so Apollo returned to the celestial world and reported to Zeus everything he saw in Troy. Zeus felt incredible and wanted to see the Prince of Troy with his own eyes.
When Zeus saw Prince Troy, he missed him every day, so Zeus had an evil idea brewing in his heart. Zeus came to Troy again. When Prince Troy acted alone, Zeus became an eagle. When the prince was not paying attention, he grabbed the prince and returned to the divine world.
The prince misses his hometown and family very much. At the same time, the king of Troy missed the prince very much. I wonder where he has gone. Zeus was ashamed and couldn't stand the fact that the prince was getting thinner day by day, so he had a dream for the king and told him about the situation of the prince in the divine world. In order to comfort the king, I gave him some horses as comfort.
Zeus also asked the prince to go back to Troy to see the king, and then came back to the gods to pour wine for Zeus. From then on, Prince Troy became a water bottle in the sky, responsible for pouring wine for Zeus. So there is Aquarius.
