What sort of man was the King Of Chu? A peerless and invincible hero, a bold and resourceful general capable of defeating vast armies. But fate wasn't on his side. At Gaixia he fell into an ambush set by the Han king,Liu Bang. A great wind blew up on that night. Liu Bang's troops sang the songs of the kingdom of Chu all night long. The Chu warriors assumed Liu Bang already occupied their homeland. In a great panic, they fled. Even the king was weeping. No matter how resourceful you are, you can't fight fate. The king had once been all-powerful, but in the end all he had left was one woman and one horse.He tried to get his steed to run away, but it wouldn't go. He wanted his concubine to flee, but she stayed too. For the very last time, Concubine Yu poured wine for her king and danced for him with a sword, then cut her throat with it, faithful to the king unto death.

My hair shorn at youth's prime.
Yet I am by nature a girl, not a boy.
Why must I wear these sexless robes?
I see the joyful couples pass.
In their splendid brocades. Despite myself, desire burns in my heart.
And I rend my Buddhist gown!
For year upon year, all over the land, I've followed my king on his military campaigns.
Enduring the wind, And frost and hard toil.
I hate only the lawless tyrant, Who has plunged our people into an abyss of misery!"

正青春被师傅削去了头发…
我本是女娇娥 又不是男儿郎…

见人家夫妻们洒落
一对对着锦穿罗 不由人心急似火…
奴把袈裟扯破！
自从我随大王东征西战…
受风霜与劳碌 年复年年…
恨只恨无道秦 把生灵涂炭！”

良辰美景奈何天
便赏心乐事谁家院？”
