The main writers and works of the yuan opera are collected in the "Selected Yuanqu", and after the editor's collation and revision, the science and white are complete, and the most convenient to read. However, scholars have also given a lot of criticism to the editor's editing, mainly because he has rashly changed the original face of the yuan drama. However, in the 300 years since, "MetaQu Selection" has almost become the only bridge for people to understand yuanqu. The editor of the "Selected Yuanqu" is Zang Maoxun.
