The Peony Pavilion, or The Return of the Soul at the Peony Pavilion in full written by Tang Xianzu. The love story of Du Liniang and Liu Mengmei is no longer limited to the narrow meaning of fighting against the dictates of parents and words of matchmakers. Instead the story shows love can be so powerful that it can conquer all and go beyond life and death. The author considers the pursuit of free love as "emotion" and the feudal code of ethics as "principle". The Peony Pavilion reveals the conflict between "emotion" and "principle" and the final victory of "emotion" over "principle".
