In nearly ten zaju, such as Xiangyang Society, Yellow Crane Tower and Crossing the River with wits, Zhao Yun played a more important role. In the era of zaju, the name "Five Tiger Generals" has become extremely common, and "Zhao Zilong is bold" is the playwright's knowledge.

Zhao Yun was the general of Yuan Shao when he appeared in The Romance of the Three Kingdoms. At that time, Liu Bei lost Xuzhou and lost contact with Zhang Guan. He wanted to borrow Yuan Tan's soldiers to ask Cao Cao, but Yuan Tan couldn't make up his mind. Later, Zhao Yun took Liu Bei as a benevolent person and gave up Yuan Shao to follow Liu Bei. Later, Liu Bei and Zhao Yun heard that there was a "Wang without surname" in the ancient city, which made Ba Shen's spear invincible. Liu Bei suspected that it was Zhang Fei, so Zhao Yun went to "Wang without surname" and fought hard for sixty times. Zhao Yun didn't increase his strength and was defeated by Ma Ben. Liu Bei recognized that "Wang without surname" was Zhang Fei, and the two brothers recognized each other.
During the war of Yang Changban, Zhao Yun entered Cao Jun alone, trying to find Liu Bei's family. When I saw Mrs. Gan, she was shot by an arrow in her right abdomen and her intestines were visible. After attaching Tuo Dou to Zhao Yun, she died on the wall. Zhao Yunnai pushed down the wall and covered himself. Later, Zhao Yun went south with Adou in his arms, met Cao Jun's army and said, "My master and I saved Adou in a million-strong army!"
After a bloody battle, Zhao Yun and Adou finally met Liu Bei. Liu Bei took a bucket and threw it on the ground, saying, "I almost broke my good general Zhao Yun to humiliate my son!" " When Liu Bei pacified Yizhou, Nai En sealed the five tiger generals, Guan Gong sealed the longevity pavilion Hou, Zhang Fei sealed the Xichang Hou, Ma Chao sealed the Dingyuan Hou, Huang Zhong sealed the chaotic Hou, and Zhao Yun sealed the national Hou.
