What was the ending of Dou Erdun in history?
In fact, although Dou Erdun was a figure in the Qing Dynasty and his father was a subordinate of Li Zicheng, the leader of the peasant uprising army at the end of the Ming Dynasty, Dou Erdun was not mentioned in the Qing Draft and Qing Shi Lu. I don't know why.
However, although Dou Erdun is not recorded in the Draft of Qing History and Records of Qing Dynasty, it is mentioned in the historical materials of Ming and Qing Dynasties and the annals of xian county.
In his early years, Dou Erdun saw an old man and a young man being bullied and tried to help him, but he was stopped by an old man. The old man who stopped him was a leader of the rebel army. Because he thought Dou Erdun had a good character, he took Dou Erdun as an apprentice and taught Dou Erdun martial arts for three years.
Dou Erdun was very enthusiastic, but now he has learned martial arts and is more chivalrous, so he later killed the evil magistrate of a county. Although it is a happy thing that the magistrate of a county was killed for evil, it also got into a lawsuit. He ran away from home to avoid the government's pursuit. In his long journey, he must meet an excellent person and learn martial arts, such as hard qigong and lightness skill, so that his martial arts can be learned by going up a flight of stairs. Because it was ruled by the Qing Dynasty, he returned to his hometown to rally troops against the Qing Dynasty.
Later, Dou Erdun also made some sensational things at that time, which shocked the Qing court. For example, he once robbed100000 official silver. Although the Qing Dynasty sent troops to encircle Dou Erdun many times, they failed to catch him successfully.
During Dou Erdun's anti-Qing Dynasty, one day an official of the Qing Dynasty rode a royal horse to hunt, and Dou Erdun knew about it, so Dou Erdun, who was skilled in martial arts, went down the mountain and stole the royal horse. This is known as Dou Erdun stealing imperial horses.
When the Qing army tried to escape, it didn't catch Dou Erdun, so it shifted its target. Instead of catching Dou Erdun, it caught Dou Erdun's mother to threaten Dou Erdun.
Dou Erdun was not only anti-Qing, but also a chivalrous man and a dutiful son, so Dou Erdun surrendered himself to save his mother. His mother thought Dou Erdun had done something wrong, so she committed suicide.
Dou Erdun was very sad to see his mother's death. Dou Erdun was tied, but he broke the rope, so he got into a fight with the government. However, he was arrested again because of his leg injury.
After Dou Erdun was captured, as an anti-Qing person, his ending can be imagined. According to the historical data of Ming and Qing Dynasties, Dou Erdun was finally executed.
Although Dou Erdun was executed, after adaptation, his deeds appeared in Shi Gong Case, Gong Peng Case, Peking Opera, Stealing the Imperial Horse and a cartoon, and he was a heroic figure. In Beijing Opera, Dou Erdun's face is a three-tile orchid, and the blue face is a metaphor for bravery.
