Luoyang Bridge

The late Yuan Dynasty. On the day of Qingming Festival, Yelvshou, the hereditary Marquis of Luoyang, was invited to the nunnery to drink and have fun. His sister Yelu Hanyan couldn't bear the loneliness in her boudoir, so she secretly left the house with her maid and went to the countryside for an outing. By the Luoyang Bridge, I met the hunter Hua Yun and killed two birds with one stone. She fell in love with Hua Yun when she saw that he was handsome, strong and capable of archery. On his way back home, Yelvshou met a folk woman picking mulberry trees. Seeing her slim and beautiful appearance, he suddenly had evil thoughts. So, relying on his power, he colluded with the government, beat the husband of the mulberry picker to death in court, and forced her to become a concubine. The mulberry picking girl was so sad and angry that she wanted to commit suicide by throwing herself into the river, but was rescued by Huayun Muzi and Guo Guangqing. Yelushou's atrocities angered Hua Yun's mother and son and Guo Guangqing, and they decided to unite with the poor villagers to take revenge on the Hou Mansion. Mrs. Yelu and Hanyan learned about the mulberry picking girl and severely reprimanded Yelu Shou. However, the evil-minded Yelvshou still insisted on going his own way, and categorically rejected Hanyan's request to marry Huayun on the pretext of the different ethnic groups and the disparity between the rich and the poor between Mongolian and Han people. Han Yan was so angry that she ignored the family rules and secretly left the house again. She went to Luoyang Bridge to look for Hua Yun, and finally met her sweetheart whom she missed day and night. When Hua Yun learned that she was the daughter of the Hou family, he walked away. Hanyan was in grief, not only hating her own background, but also hating her brother's misbehavior. In addition, she was imprisoned by Yelvshou, which made her depressed and ill.
