Master Xu went forward to have a look. It says that Qin Xianglian is thirty-two years old and is suing Xu Malang.
If you bully the king and the emperor, those who break the marriage will recruit the east bed.
Killing his wife ruined his son's conscience, forcing Han Qi to die in the temple, sticking the form paper on Ye's lobby, and gritting his teeth. What are you doing?
As we all know, Peking Opera was formed in the late Qing Dynasty, and many plays are based on traditional novels, scripts and zaju. Qin Xianglian, also known as My Beauty Case, is mainly adapted from Bao Gong's Hundred Cases in Ming Dynasty, Three Heroes and Five Righteousnesses in Qing Dynasty and its sequel Wang Mao.
Bao Gong is an immortal and honest official. His stories have been interpreted by later generations, and My Case-solving is one of them.
Chen Shimei, who was born in poverty, studied hard for ten years in high school. He was a top student and was later recruited as Xu by the emperor. In my hometown of Chen Shimei, I have a married wife named Qin Xianglian. They have two children. Qin Xianglian couldn't wait for news of Chen Shimei, so she took her children to Beijing to find her husband. And Chen Shimei not only refused to recognize them, but also sent Han Qi to kill mother and son in the middle of the night. Han Qi couldn't bear to lay hands on him after knowing the truth, and finally he could only commit suicide. Qin Xianglian was mistaken for the murderer, and was sent to the frontier on the orders of Chen Shimei. On the way, officials killed him. Zhan Zhao happened to pass by, saved Qin Xianglian, and then the case went to Bao Zheng. Bao Zheng tried to convict Chen Shimei, but the princess and the empress dowager kept trying to stop him. But in the end, Bao Zheng enforced the law impartially and sent Chen Shimei to see the chief and killed him.
2. Chen Shimei would rather offend a gentleman than a villain. The real Chen Shimei in history offended a villain.
Chen Shimei is an honest and upright official, and the husband and wife love each other. He is a good official and deeply loved by the people. However, Chen Shimei offended a villain, this person is called Hu Mengdie. Hu Mengdie wanted to take refuge in Chen Shimei, but Chen Shimei refused. What is even more frightening is that Hu Mengdie is a scholar and can read and write. After being rejected, he wrote a play and then portrayed Chen Shimei as a heartbreaker. Who knew this play was getting more and more popular? Everyone knows that Chen Shimei is a sad person, and even later generations regard the name Chen Shimei as a synonym for sadness. By the time Chen Shimei knew about the play, it was too late. The way of news dissemination and rumors at that time could not be stopped.
"My Beauty Case" has always been a classic in Beijing Opera, especially the singing of "Master Xu comes closer and takes a closer look". After so many years, Chen Shimei's reputation is unlikely to be overthrown.
