A great beauty, Wang Zhaojun was a court lady-in-waiting in the Han dynasty (206 B.C-221 A.D.) at a time when the dynasty was dangerously threatened by the military strength of the Huns to the north. Much to her misfortune, Zhaojun fell prey to the plot of a traitorous and perfidious minister, Mao Yanshou, who suggested to the chief of the Huns that he demand her hand from the emperor of the Han dynasty. Out of cowardice and fear, the emperor agreed to the marriage proposal and Zhaojun was promptly sent on an arduous journey to the land of the northern barbarians. In the classical Chinese theater, there is a famous saying regarding this scene, which is a comment on its great performing challenges on the performers of Zhaojun Leaving Her Country: Wang Zhaojun’s challenge in singing the extended arias, Wang Long’s challenge in comic acting, and the groom’s challenge in acrobatic stunts.
