Story content
Dispute over surnames
The story of Hua Mulan has a long history and has been well-known for more than a thousand years. However, there are still many legends about her family name, Liju and birth age.
About her surname, some people say it is Wei (Daming Unified Records, Daqing Unified Records, Henan Tongzhi, Guide Fu Zhi, Shangqiu County Zhi, Yucheng County Zhi, Bozhou Zhi, Wanxian Zhi, etc.); others say it is Mulan; others say it is Zhu (Qing Dynasty's Biography of Loyalty, Filial Piety and Wonderful Woman, the True Book of Salvation of General Mulan Zhongli).
This surname of Mulan is commonly known in the folk. There are three possibilities: one is that Mulan is a kind of flower name, which is inverted from Mulan; the other is that Mulan is called "Hua Gu", which is the nickname of Mulan; and the biggest one is the miscellaneous drama "Four Sounds of Apes" written by Xu Wei, a dramatist of the Ming Dynasty.
The title of a play in "Four Voices of Apes" is "Female Magnolia Entering the Army on behalf of Her Father". The plot of this play came from the Romance of Mulan Ci in Yuefu Poetry Collection of the Northern Song Dynasty, but Mulan has no surname in Mulan Ci. For the need of theatrical performance, Xu Wei gave Mulan a "flower" surname, highlighting the female beauty of Mulan. He also named Mulan's father "flower arc". In fact, the so-called "flower arc" is the homonym of "flower vague", implying the meaning of vague names, which is a common method used by writers.
Later, Mei Lanfang, a master of Peking Opera, adapted Mulan to join the army. He was more cautious at that time, and did not add his surname to Mulan when it was difficult to access information. Until after liberation, Chang Xiangyu, an artist of Henan Opera, adapted the Beijing Opera "Mulan Entering the Army" into Henan Opera, named "Hua Mulan", and toured the country. She also made movies, which had a wide influence. So far, the term "Hua Mulan" has been well known among the people, and it has spread widely, which makes people really mistake Mulan as "Hua".
Household Registration in the 1990s
As for the age of Hua Mulan's birth, Cheng Damao in the Song Dynasty said she was from the early Tang Dynasty in Yan Fanlu. Yao Ying in the Qing Dynasty said that she was from Emperor Xiaowen in the Northern Wei Dynasty to Emperor Xuanwu in Yingguo Town, Gushu County (now Shangqiu Yucheng County); Song Xiangfeng's Guoting Lu in the Qing Dynasty and Guide Fu Zhi and Bozhou Zhi recorded that she was from Emperor Gongdi in the Sui Dynasty. Huangpi County Chronicle records that she was born in Zhenguan of Tang Dynasty.
"Henan Tongzhi", "Guide Fu Zhi" and "Bozhou Zhi" all said that she was from Yingguo Town, Gushu County, Songzhou in the Sui Dynasty, and Lu Kun in the Ming Dynasty recorded in "Boudoir Fantu Shuo" "Mulan, Shangqiu people." The Records of the Unification of the Qing Dynasty said that she was from Dongwei Village in Xuxian County. The Qing Dynasty "Bozhou Chronicle" Volume 1 Geographic Records: "The Yuan Dynasty has a statue of a filial piety general temple, the general's name Mulan, Bozhi people. Suiyang is eighty miles southeast of the border. It is called Yingguo, the ancient Bofang area and the ruins of filial piety. Guo Jinyingguo is Yingguoji, seventy miles southeast of Shangqiu. Hou You thought that the ancient Bo area, the ruins of filial piety, filial piety to the people. And the former residence here, we can see that Yingguo's land belongs to Shangqiu, which used to belong to banishment.
The Qing Dynasty novel The Story of Loyalty, Filial Piety, bravery and Woman claims that Mulan was a native of Xiling County, Huangzhou Prefecture in the Tang Dynasty.
