I knew very early that the ending was a bit sadistic, so I made full mental preparations, but after reading it, I felt that this ending was actually OK. There are many people on the Internet who say that it is all be, too miserable, but I think it is not
First, let's analyze the information of the subtitle prompt at the end of the film
Article 1: Jin Rong was eventually ambushed and killed by Liu Zixing, and Eleven was posthumously honored as empress
Article 2: Princess Xinghua asked herself to marry nan
Article 3: When troops rose up everywhere, Liu Zixing died in a mixture of sorrow and anger
Article 4: Three years later, Sun Jie and Yang Shao supported Liu Zizhen to ascend the throne
The first one proves that Liu Zixing still has a strategy is not a rice bucket, no matter what he did to Zhou Shengchen, after all, he also seized the power back, which also means that Liu Zixing's relatives did not break their roots, Jin Rong killed some people, but because Liu Zixing's face could not be too much, but because he lacked legal legitimacy after all, legal orthodoxy Was very important in ancient times, I have already elaborated in the previous article, so the princes everywhere rebelled. After his death, various princes supported Liu Zizhen to ascend the throne, and Liu Zizhen was the young emperor who Zhou Shengchen saved with his life, and was also a legally recognized candidate for the emperor. And that eldest sun Jie was the subordinate of the third master's brother, that is, the power that represented the king of Xiaonanchen, in principle, Zhou should be rehabilitated after the new emperor ascended the throne.
Some people say that everyone else must be be, so there is a eldest grandson Jie who became a great general, but in fact, it is not, the monk leaves, and the scene of the generals sending farewell is after the new emperor ascends the throne. Among the people who remained, one was a monk, Feng Qiao was a female general, the third master brother had a disability, and it was impossible for him to play this role as a general defending the country in the court, and the only person who did not give an account was Liu Feng, and there were two possibilities for the end of The Wind, one was that he inherited the title of King of Xiao Nanchen, then he certainly could not stay in Zhongzhou, and the other was that he had already sacrificed. But I think the former is more likely, and finally the third master brother who went to the Qinglong Temple said that they all went, there was no one in Xizhou, and the meaning of going may also be to leave, the monk left, the sister got married, these are the reasons for leaving, so it is not necessarily be, and it is already ten years later. If it is be, there is no need to shoot ten years later, and in his memories, there are only a few of their brothers and sisters and Zhou Shengchen, and there is no turbulence, indicating that the whirlpool is alive.
In addition, the final shot is the inscription in the Changle Palace and the unfinished Shanglin Fu in the library, and everything is intact. Who would keep these furnishings and arrangements in the palace so completely, only one person is possible, that is, The Wind, he should have inherited the title of King of Xiaonanchen, it is possible to stay in the palace, for him one is his sister, the other is the hero he admires, so he will be so cherished. Of course, it may also be the Third Master Brother. However, with the family background of the third master brother, it is unlikely that he will be given to the royal palace, so I personally think that the possibility of the wind is greater.
Back to the ending, why I think it is OKAY, the previous article I analyzed why Zhou Shengchen will not retreat from the whole body, the intervention of the King of Taiyuan has made things extremely complicated, disrupted his original plan, he had to make a choice to give up the opportunity of his own life, he is not seeking the present but the future. He used his personal sacrifice to protect the foundation of the Liu clan in exchange for the opportunity for a comeback of the Liu clan regime, and in the end, Yang Shao and Changsun Jie agreed to establish a new emperor and ascended the throne, that is to say, to avoid the confrontation between soldiers and the destruction of life. A few years after his sacrifice, his ideal of defending the regime and defending the people of Li was once again realized, and he won again. Zhou Shengchen is indeed not to live up to the world, but it is appropriate to be negative... Just wait for reincarnation to reunite again and guard a lifetime...
