Yuan

Introduction to modern Chinese:

Dou E, a poor woman in Chuzhou. Dou E's mother died when she was very young, and her father Dou was unable to pay her debts. Because he went to Beijing to catch the exam and lacked food expenses, he was sold to the lonely Cai family as a child bride. Not two years after arriving at Cai's home, her husband died of illness, leaving only her mother-in-law to live alone.

There is a rogue named Zhang Lver in Chuzhou who bullies Cai's mother-in-law. He and his father Zhang lived in Cai's house and forced Cai's mother-in-law to marry Zhang. Grandma Cai was timid and reluctantly agreed. Zhang Maolv threatened to marry him, but resolutely refused and scolded Zhang Maolv.

Zhang donkey bears a grudge. A few days later, Cai's mother-in-law became ill and asked her to make mutton soup. Zhang Lver secretly poisoned the soup, trying to poison Cai's mother-in-law first and then force her to get married. Dou E brought the mutton soup to Grandma Cai. Grandma Cai took the bowl and suddenly felt like vomiting. She didn't want to drink it, so she gave it to Zhang. Zhang was poisoned, rolled on the ground a few times and swallowed.

Zhang Lver poisoned his father, planted the murder charge on Dou E, and reported it to Chuzhou yamen.

Tao Xun, the magistrate of Chuzhou, is a corrupt official who takes bribes and perverts the law. Zhang Lver secretly bought him off, took Dou E to court for interrogation, and forced her to admit that she had poisoned him. Dou E suffered all kinds of torture. She was so miserable that she still refused to admit it.

Knowing that she was filial to her mother-in-law, she wanted to torture her mother-in-law Cai in front of Dou E. She felt that her mother-in-law was too old to stand this torture and had to confess.

Tao Xun, a corrupt official, beat Dou E to confession, sentenced her to death and took her to the execution ground for execution. Seeing that there was nowhere to redress grievances, Dou E angrily cursed Heaven and Earth: "Earth, what are you, good or evil?" ? Oh, my God, you are wrong! "At the time of execution, she made three wishes to heaven: first, the knife fell too far and all the blood spilled on Bai Lian; Second, it will snow heavily to cover her body; Third, let Chuzhou suffer from drought for three years. Dou E's oath really touched the world. It was rainy in June. After Dou E was killed, it was dark and snowy for a while. Next, there was a drought in Chuzhou for three years. Later, Dou E's father Dou became an official in Beijing. Dou E's unjust case was rehabilitated, the murderer Zhang Lver was executed, and the corrupt official Tao Xun was duly punished.

The story is related to the background:

As Yuan Shizu took many measures to develop production, the social economy was very prosperous in the early Yuan Dynasty. But this prosperity only benefits Mongolian princes and nobles, landlords and bureaucrats. In order to meet the luxury life and military needs of Mongolian aristocrats, Yuan Shizu also appointed several ministers in charge of finance to help him search for wealth. These ministers colluded with local officials, took bribes and perverted the law, and did everything they could.

The Yuan Dynasty also carried out a policy of national oppression, which divided the people of the whole country into four classes: the first class was Mongolians; The second category is called semu people, that is, all ethnic groups in the western regions and Xixia people; The third category is called Han people, that is, Han people, Khitan people, Jurchen people and so on who were originally under the rule of the Jin Dynasty. The fourth category is called Nanren, that is, the people of all ethnic groups in the Southern Song Dynasty. The political status and treatment of the fourth class are different, and Han people and southerners are discriminated against everywhere.

Under the cruel class oppression and national oppression, the working people of all ethnic groups lead a miserable life. Corruption is rampant and there are countless unjust cases.

Author Guan Hanqing, a Beijinger at the end of Jin Dynasty and the beginning of Yuan Dynasty, was a representative writer of zaju in Yuan Dynasty. Together with Zheng Guangzu, Bai Pu and Ma Zhiyuan, he was called "the Four Masters of Yuan Zaju" and ranked first among the "Four Masters of Yuan Zaju", which had a great influence on the development of Yuan Zaju and later operas.

A song "Dou Eyuan" is known as one of the top ten classical tragedies in China and one of the four tragedies of Yuan Zaju, and it is called "the first of Yuan Zaju".
