In the past, those who wrote Peking opera were all talented people who were unsuccessful in their studies.
Although they did not pass the imperial examinations, they were all very knowledgeable.
Therefore, the Peking Opera scripts are all very profound.
The most commonly used method is to intersperse a large number of historical allusions and compare the past with the present.
However, Peking Opera is not as difficult and obscure as Kunqu Opera, and the lyrics are still very lifelike!
This is also one of the reasons why Peking Opera has such a high status.
Many ordinary people gain knowledge from Peking Opera or storytelling.
For example, this passage of opera lyrics tells the story of the tyranny of King Ping of Chu.
Wu Xiangnu, whose real name was Meng Ying, was born with a beautiful appearance, as pretty as a fairy, and had five fragrances on her body: fragrance from her mouth, breath, skin, limbs, and hair. Therefore, she was nicknamed Wuxiang and people called her Wuxiangnu. Later, she was mistakenly called Wu Xiangnu.
Wuxiangnu was engaged to Prince Jian, the son of King Ping of Chu. When they came of age, the old Prime Minister Wu She proposed to go to Western Qin to arrange a marriage, that is, to send someone to pick up Wuxiangnu!
At that time, the Qin State was very powerful and no one dared to move the relatives, but Fei Wuji took the initiative to volunteer.
Since Prince Jian did not like Fei Wuji, Fei Wuji was planning to curry favor with the prince!
As a result, before leaving, Fei Wuji went to the prince's palace to ask for wedding money, but was beaten with forty sticks by Prince Jian. So Fei Wuji hated the prince!
Fei Wuji told King Ping of Chu how beautiful the Five Spice Girl was and that she had a unique fragrance, which immediately attracted the old lecher. So Fei Wuji came up with the trick of replacing Ma Zhaoyi with the Five Spice Girl.
On the way here, the bride, Wuxiangnu, rode in a golden-roofed, eight-man sedan chair that was beautifully decorated.
Her personal maid, Ma Yahuan, was riding in a small and exquisite silver-topped sedan chair.
When they arrived near Jinji Ridge, Fei Wuji told Wuxiangnu that there were often bandits in the vicinity, and to prevent them from robbing, the princess and her maid's sedan chair had to be swapped.
The princess didn't think much of it, so the two of them switched places.
As a result, they arrived in the capital and carried the silver-top sedan directly to the palace.
Later, Ma Zhaoyi confessed the truth, and Mi Jian went to the palace to see Wuxiangnu. As a result, Prince Jian was furious and rushed into the Golden Palace to compete with King Ping of Chu for his wife. He also drew his sword to kill Fei Wuji.
King Ping of Chu was furious and killed Prince Jian with a golden gourd.
Of course, the real history is not like this. Prince Jian did not die, he just fled to the State of Song.
However, this incident of a father stealing his son's wife did happen.
But after being polished by writers, it becomes more conflicting!
When Lin Mu sang this part, he also expressed his disdain for King Ping of Chu!
Meng Xiaodong, who was standing aside, held the jade belt with both hands and looked at Lin Mu, not knowing what was on her mind.
"Old loyal and righteous Wu She went to the palace to present this letter, enraged and angry at the treacherous party, and with murderous intent—"
"The palace has devised a plan—"
"It's a pity that his family of over 300 people, each one stabbed and stained with blood—"
"Zixu left Fancheng and went to the State of Wu to seek justice for his wrongs—"
"Qiao Zhuang escaped from Zhaoguan, and his beard turned white overnight, missing his family and sighing for his country——"
"After escaping from the dragon's den and the tiger's lair, I encountered a washerwoman, playing the flute in Wu City to change into a dragon robe—"
"The first one recommended him to become brothers with Zhuan Zhu, and Yu Cangjian assassinated Wang Liao for the sake of the country—"
"The rebel Qingji in Hedong recommended Yaoli for the second time—"
"Yao Li lost his arm for his country—"
"Leaving behind his parents and his virtuous wife, he brandished his dagger on the bow of the ship, leaving behind a bloody scene—"
"Chivalry is number one, in that eternally famous title—"
"Recommended Sun Wu three times, and killed Meiji in a battle on the training ground—"
"The rise of Wu and the decline of Chu—"
"The ruthless and foolish King is dead, and Wu Zixu has shattered King Ping's corpse with a whip—"
