In previous Acts, General Di Qing of the Imperial Song scored repeated victories over the Barbarians. But in this Act, he was finally defeated by the Kingdom Shan Shan after a series of fierce battles and was received by the Shan Shan as the royal son-in-law. Yet in his heart he remained loyal to his kin. Determined to return to the Song, Di Qing made the Princess drunk one day and then fled. By the time the Princess recovered, her royal husband had long gone. Burning with anger, the Princess set off to capture Di Qing. This scene shows Di Qing and the Princess meeting in the forest ready to do battle.
