At that time, the main script of Southern Opera was Legend, and there were many legendary tunes, among which the oldest one originated from Zhejiang Haiyan, which was popular in Jiaxing, Huzhou, Wenzhou, Taizhou and other places, and was reintroduced to Jiangxi in Wanli years. Yiyang tune is widely popular in Jiangxi, South Beijing, Hunan, Fujian, Anhui, Guangdong, Guangxi, Yunnan, Guizhou and other places, and is combined with local languages. There are also Siping cavity, Yiwu cavity and Leping cavity, all of which have little influence.
There is also a process in the revival of Southern Opera. At the beginning of the Ming Dynasty, nobles, literati and other upper-class people regarded North Opera as elegant music, while the broad masses of the people generally liked South Opera with popular tunes and complete stories. After the popularity of four legendary stories, Liu (the story of Liu Zhiyuan's White Rabbit), Bai (Wang Ruilan's in my heart forever Moon Pavilion), killing animals (killing dogs) and the brilliant Pipa Story, they have greatly improved, and they have attracted the attention of the literati, and Southern Opera has since embarked on a square feast.
Kunqu Opera, referred to as Kunqu Opera for short, is a branch of Nanqu Opera, which originated in Kunshan at the end of Yuan Dynasty. According to Ming Yufeng (Kunshan) Zhang Guangde's Record of the Day, the second volume recorded that "the ancient mirror was in the Yuan Dynasty. Although he is three miles away from Kunshan, he is good at southern ci and writing ancient fu. Kukuo Timur listened to his good songs and begged again and again to be unyielding. I became friends with Yang Tiedi, Gu Aying and Ni, and I broke up with them. His works include ten volumes of Tao Zhen Ji Ya and eight volumes of Yue Feng San Ren Yue Fu, which are well-known in the world and are good at making southern songs, so the country was originally named Kunshan dialect.
