In recent years, palace fighting dramas on tv screens have been very popular, but when it comes to the originator of palace fighting dramas, we have to mention this TVB classic "Golden Branches Desire".
No gorgeous costumes, no excessive stunts, no filters, no cutouts, no cookie-cutter looks, no beard-blowing and staring performances, a group of powerful actors with natural looks and excellent acting skills to support this masterpiece, so that the audience still remembers it after many years.
Speaking of the concubine played by Deng Cuiwen, what flashed in my mind was the brilliant but fierce beauty. When Yuying Erchun and other showgirls entered the palace, everyone knew that this concubine Niangniang yan suppressed the harem, and the limelight once overshadowed the empress, so it was impossible to offend the concubine Niangniang.
As the concubine Niangniang is indeed as rumored to be, it makes people feel frightened. On the top, she and the empress were openly competing, without giving the harem lord a little face, and she suppressed many concubines, and in order to consolidate her position, she did a lot of things that hurt nature and reason.
For these show girls who have just entered the palace, she has a lot of care, not only to win people's hearts, but also to exclude dissidents, and the show girls tremble under her eyes, afraid that if they make a mistake, they will die without a place to die.
For example, Concubine Niangniang is not only cruel to her people, but also not soft on herself. In order to continue her own grace, she did not hesitate to hurt her body to forcibly become pregnant, did not listen to the advice of the doctor, gambled her own life, and took a huge risk to give birth to Xiao Gege.
Seeing this, we are also confused, a woman, what she is carrying on her body, what she has endured in the past, let her gamble on her and her daughter's life, but also let go. Behind this is the blinding eyes of power or the unavoidable suffering.
In the early stages of the play, the concubine Niangniang can be described as a hand covering the sky, and a few words can determine the fate of many people. When she tried to win Anxi over, she accused Anxi of marrying the eunuch for food, and even wanted Anxi's life at one point.
I have lived in the harem for a long time, and even the people who watch it are particularly accurate. At a glance, she could see that Anxi was by no means an idle person, and since she could not take it for her own use, she would destroy her. However, in the end, the chess piece was almost complete, and it did not succeed under the mixing of the queen.
Like those showgirls in the harem, we all think that the concubine is born like this, but who can understand her inner pain. You must know that more than ten years ago, she was also a naïve girl with a kind heart.
It's just that this harem is a place of murderous heart, and after Rufei experienced the pain of losing her son, that innocent and kind person also rushed to Huangquan with her son, leaving a beautiful skin bag and full of hatred.
With the end of the draft, the little lords who stayed behind were all young and beautiful, and the concubines who gave birth to children were gradually snubbed by the emperor. With the help of the empress, the concubine not only fell out of favor, but even meeting her own daughter became a luxury.
The people of the harem, from the nobles to the nobles, down to the eunuch palace women, worship high and low, see the wind make the rudder, and the former lively and extraordinary residence of the concubines has long been cold and deserted, and no one cares.
The concubines who have always been proud of their toes are also withering away like yesterday's yellow flowers. Without the appearance of Kong Wu, I am afraid that we would never be able to see the other side of Concubine Ru.
The meeting between Rufei and Kong Wu has a kind of sympathy for each other who are both fallen people in the end of the world. At that time, Kong Wu was rejected by Anxi, and if the concubine fell out of favor, the two frustrated people met like this, and no one could guess whether the two were affectionate or warm to each other when they fell?
When Rufei suffered from snow blindness, it was kong Wu who cared for her, not only helping her to see a doctor, but also encouraging her to bravely face the current predicament.
When Rufei missed Xiao Gege, Kong Wu carefully arranged for the mother and daughter to meet. Everything Kong Wu did had long exceeded his own scope of responsibility, especially when he learned that the owner of the handkerchief was a concubine, it was even more delicious, sighing at each other and hating the night, and lamenting fate.
Due to his innate inadequacy and the fact that the queen obstructed him, Xiao Gege died prematurely. Rufei is Rufei after all, worthy of being a person who has seen the wind and waves, and in addition to great sorrow, Rufei can actually use xiao Gege's death to regain the emperor's love.
Rufei came back to life, and she became the darling of the ten thousand people under one person, but at this moment she lived to deal with the queen, and she wanted to avenge the death of her son and daughter.
When there was chaos in the palace, Rufei had the opportunity to go out of the palace with Kong Wu, but in the end she overcame the emotions, and Rufei did not want Kong Wu to be embarrassed, and chose to stay in the palace to buy more time for Kong Wu and An Qian to leave the palace.
I have to say that Rufei's choice is correct, she is not An qian, she can put everything down with Kong Wu, she has the whole family behind her, can not be because of her alone and the whole family of Niu Hulu, and Kong Wu and An Qian so left, there are a lot of things in the palace waiting for people to clean up, how to hide the secrets of Sun Baiyang and Yuying? How did Chun Guiren disappear for no reason?
If the concubine can't leave, she can only stay in the palace to fight with the queen, she can only stay in the palace to tell lies for everyone, and only if she stays in the palace, those who escape from the palace can live a carefree life, and those who die can retain the last trace of decency.
As the concubine said, "The palace is her home and her grave." She envied Anxi for being able to fly away with her beloved, and she envied Yuying for being able to go to Huangquan with her beloved.
If there is an afterlife, may she be born into an ordinary family, away from harem battles, a house of two people with three meals and four seasons, thousands of rivers and mountains for a hundred years.
