Abstract
of lyrics:
People hate Lo Tong very much because he enforces extremely
cruel tax laws and pockets all the profits. Tang dynasty rules
China strictly but impartially. Lo Tong is not allowed to ruin
the system. The emperor is too far to listen to the common people.
The Lo family indulges in debauchery every single day. However,
that people cry piteously on street can be heard. It would be
a pity that a wicked person is the ruler. “I have deepest sympathy
on you. Just tell me what you wish”, said Princess Tu-Lu.
Princess Tu-Lu offers Lo Tong a position of cart driver and
a shelter in her country in the north. Lo Tong tries to convince
the Princess not to go to the Jie-Pai-Kuan because there are
so many enemies and the captain Lo Tong is such a crafty and
wicked person. In spite of Lo-Tong’s tricks and numerous enemies,
Princess Tu-Lu still insists to head for the Jie-Pai-Kuan and
fight. There are more than one hundred thousand soldiers in
the Jie-Pai-Kuan but it seems rare people exactly know who Lo
Tong is. |
