According to legend, Lord Qianlong traveled south along the canal, arriving in Muzhuangzi (now "Tianmu Village") in the north of Tianjin, and passing a shop on the boat, smelling the scent and arousing appetite. The store serves steaming sprouting black beans with lotus leaves. After Qianlong's meal, he was full of praise, but he was still thinking about it after his return from the Southern Tour. The owner of the edict, Mu Shi, went into the palace and cooked the sprouts of black beans. "
