《孟丽君》这一部小說,我在十几岁讀书的时候就爱看。这是一部传奇长篇,全书都是唱句,說白很少,每句大都七字,頗合弹詞体裁;故事情节很曲折,較之一般小說,有不落窠臼之处;它着重写孟丽君女扮男妆,官至宰相,历尽艰险,坚貞不屈,終于夫妻团圓。因此,我对它发生了兴趣,产生要把它改編成說部的动机。 “Meng Lijun” a novel, I love reading when I was a teenager. This is a legendary long, the book is singing, saying few words, each of the seven characters, quite the storytelling genre; story plot is twists and turns, compared to the general novel, there is no loss; it focuses on writing Meng Lijun disguised as male makeup, officials prime minister, experienced hardships, unyielding, and finally couples reunion. So I became interested in it, motivated to adapt it to the Ministry.
