Weaving Girl had been cultivating in the Heavenly Palace for thousands of years, but she lost her freedom because the Heavenly Emperor loved her too much. In order to return to the human world and reunite with the cowherd, the Weaver Girl asked the Jade Emperor to allow her to descend to the mortal world to meet the cowherd. The Emperor of Heaven agreed to her request but requested that the Weaver Girl only meet at night.
