Sheng (male)

Lu Bu

He was a bodyguard of Dong Zhuo, the minister in the late period of the Eastern Han Dynasty. Well-trained and highly skilled in martial art, he became one of the warlords later.

Lu Bu used to be closely associated with Dong Zhuo, but later succumbed to the seduction of a beautiful singer, a trick planed by the imperial loyalists. He fell in love with Diao Chan, the beautiful young singer, and eventually killed Dong Zhuo because of the increasing misunderstanding
deliberately created by Diao between Dong and him.

Repertoire:Lu Bu and Diao Chan

Wu Zixu

Wu Zixu lived in the Spring and Autumn Period (770-476 BC). All his family members were ordered to be beheaded by the irrational King Pingwang of the State of Chu because of his father's loyalty in presenting remonstration. Wu Zixu was the only lucky survivor. In order to kill the emperor in
revenge for his family, Wu Zixu left no stone unturned and eventually succeeded in getting rescue troops from the State of Wu by getting through the Wenzhao Pass.

Repertoire:The Wenzhao Pass

Lin Xiangru

Prime Minister of the State of Zhao in the Warring States Period (475-221 BC).

Lin Xiangru declined to engage in disputes with Lian Po, senior general who was reluctant to be inferior to him in ranking, so that no outside enemy could take advantage of the possible dissension. When Lin's repated sincere efforts eventually brought about Lian's awareness of his mistakes, the
Prime Minister and the general were in good terms ever since.

Repertoire:The General and Prime Minister Reconcile Their Differences
