The Jingbai pear, named after the word "Jing", was loved by the emperors of the Qing dynasty. It became a tribute fruit, and there is also a story of several twists and turns. According to legend, in the last years of the Qianlong reign of the Qing Dynasty, He Shen ran into a pear seller in Xiangshan. His pears were moderately sweet and sour, tender and crispy without residue, and the flesh was juicy. They were really natural and delicious, so he presented the pears to the emperor and quickly received a reward. But the next year, when the emperor wanted to eat pears, he couldn't find the source of the pears. Heshen ordered a quick search. After three years, he finally found it when Qianlong was in critical condition. This is the Jingbai pear from Dongshan Village, Junzhuang Town, Xishan, Beijing. Since then, the Jingbaili in Dongshan Village has been named "Gong Li". The pear has a yellow skin and a white heart. It has a thin skin, multiple nuclei, moderately sweet and sour, tender and crisp without residue, and the meat is smooth and juicy. The taste is soft and waxy, melts in the mouth, and is sweet and honey-like on the bite. In autumn and winter, use Jingbai pear to boil water to drink, which can produce body fluid to quench thirst, nourish yin and reduce dryness, and has a good effect of moisturizing the lungs. "
