In this long process of development, Kunqu opera continued to evolve and develop, going through many stages from Kunshan opera to the formation of Kunqu opera. - For example, during the Jiajing period, after the innovation of Wei Liangfu and Liang Chenyu, Kunshan opera absorbed the strengths of Beiqu, Haiyan opera and Yiyang opera, forming the "Shuimo tune", thus forming Kunqu opera. Liang Chenyu brought the legend of " The Story of Washing Silk ", which was created based on the new Kunshan tune, onto the stage in the form of Kunqu opera.

Kunqu Qingyi ** 1. ** Acting Style ** - The performance of Kunqu opera was restrained, tactful and delicate.

For example, Zhang Huoding played the role of Concubine Yu. As an actress of the Cheng School, she found a unique Cheng School performance style for the role of Concubine Yu when she performed Farewell My Concubine. From the singing to the performance movements, she carefully designed them, reflecting the uniqueness of the role creation of the Qing Yi in Beijing opera. 3. ** Inheritance and Development ** - In the course of development, it had undergone many reforms. In the 1920s, Wang Yaoqing and Mei Lanfang reformed the Qingyi industry, integrating the skills of Hua Dan and Dao Ma Dan into Qingyi performances. In the 1950s, Zhang Junqiu integrated the characteristics of the four famous actresses, making the Peking opera Qingyi continue to develop. According to the genre, the Qingyi of Beijing opera can be divided into the Qingyi of the Plum Sect and the Qingyi of the Zhang Sect. The singing of the Plum Sect is simple and fresh, with a combination of hardness and softness, with the beauty of natural harmony; the singing of the Zhang Sect is vigorous and euphemistic, beautiful and fresh.
