The title of a Peking opera song. Based on the novel "Romance of the Western Han Dynasty," this piece is based on the historical fact that Xiang Yu, who was defeated by Emperor Gaozu of the Western Han Dynasty, committed suicide to regret his final farewell to his beloved concubine, Yu Ji. It premiered in Beijing around 1930. Yang Xiaolou's Xiang Yu and Mei Lanfang's Yu Ji are considered to be the best roles.
