Yu Ge takes you to read the original work and watch the twentieth time of the popular TV series "Crane And Hua Ting".
From the original, go deeper.
"Crane And Hua Ting" finale, 60 episodes seems to be very long, but in fact very short.
The story seems to be very complicated, but it is actually very simple, that is, a bright line and two dark lines.
The bright line is: In order to realize his political ideals, Emperor Xiao Ruijian used the crown prince Xiao Dingquan's throne as bait, so that the qi king Xiao Dingtang and the prince Xiao Dingquan faction fought each other, and he fished for profit.
The dark line is divided into two, both of which are revenge:
One is Lu Wenxi's revenge on Zhang Luzheng;
The second is Xu Changping's revenge on Xiao Ruijian.
But as far as the open-ended ending of the TV series is concerned, the story is far from over, and it leaves us with a lot of suspense.
What does "just around" mean at the end of the plot?
After Xiao Dingquan arrived in Changzhou, what happened after reuniting with his cousin Gu Feng'en?
Why did Lu Wenxi say that Xiao Dingquan had lost his appointment after eight months of pregnancy, and that he had no worries?
Why did Xu Changping sacrifice the tree of prince lin? What secret did he not tell Xiao Dingquan?
I will answer all these questions for you below.
What does "just in waiting" mean?
In my opinion, the meaning of "waiting" is that this "Crane And Hua Ting" should still make a sequel.
And the second part should be more exciting than the first part.
The first part is mainly about the dispute between the crown prince Xiao Dingquan and the Qi king Xiao Dingtang for the throne.
And in the second part, we should tell the story between the five kings Xiao Dingkai, Xiao Dingquan, and Xu Changping.
In fact, the ending of these "old people" is not "waiting", because the ending is actually already doomed.
And what makes me "wait" the most is: the story after Xiao Dingquan and Lu Wenxi's son Xiao Chen, I don't know if his future can be expected...
Why did Gu Feng'en force Xiao Dingquan to rebel?
His father, Gu Silin, died too tragically, which filled him with resentment and despair for the current emperor.
In the original work, Gu Silin died on the battlefield, which is no problem. The body of the general Ma Ge can also be regarded as heroic and righteous, and he died as he deserved.
However, when Gu Silin died, the old chengzhou department that followed him was unharmed, which could not be said.
The reason for this, which is well understood, is that these old departments have long been bribed by Emperor Xiao Ruijian, just waiting for the day when Gu Silin will win a big victory.
Xiao Dingquan is Gu Feng'en's natural and geographical advantage
This can also be understood as follows: Xiao Ruijian has never believed Gu Silin, and he killed Gu Silin more than ten years ago.
Therefore, after learning the truth about Gu Silin's cause of death, how could Gu Feng'en, as his son, still fight for Xiao Ruijian's life?
However, with Gu Fengen's fame and seniority now, if he wanted to create Xiao Ruijian's rebellion, even if he had the support of the heroic and warlike Gu Jiajun, there was basically no chance of victory, because he had a head start.
Therefore, he had to co-opt the crown prince Xiao Dingquan to join him, use the Qing Jun's side as the head, and use Xiao Dingquan's prestige to conduct military advice, so that he could have a chance to succeed.
Xiao Dingquan was excited about the battle with his father Xiao Ruijian
Xiao Dingquan traveled from Kyoto to Changzhou, the first time he left the capital and saw his own miles of rivers and mountains.
After seeing these magnificent mountains and rivers, his world view has changed.
Now Xiao Dingquan would rather die violently than go back and endure silent old age in the deep palace.
So although Gu Feng'en killed the controller crane guard who sent him and forced him to a dead end, in fact, his subconscious was still more excited than afraid.
It is not that he does not dislike power, because he has always been connected to his father by blood.
Why did Xiao Dingquan give up the decisive battle with Xiao Ruijian?
Xiao Dingquan was shaken when he saw Gu Feng'en's troops in the Changzhou army and Li Ming'an's troops fighting each other.
Two consecutive days of slaughter turned the entire Changzhou into a hell on earth, and such a bloody rain and wind made Xiao Dingquan's heart suffer greatly.
When Gu Feng'en told Xiao Dingquan that he could pacify Changzhou in less than two days, Xiao Dingquan finally made up his mind to let Gu Feng'en take over.
Gu Feng'en said that Xiao Dingquan had no way to retreat, but Xiao Dingquan said: Turning back is a way to retreat.
In this human purgatory, Xiao Dingquan finally understood the good intentions of his father Xiao Ruijian.
Why did Gu Feng'en die in despair
The reason for this is because Xiao Dingquan finally chose the surname "Xiao" instead of the surname "Gu".
Xiao Dingquan said to Gu Feng'en: I am afraid that in the future I will become Your Majesty, and you will become the Marquis of Wude.
yes! If their military advice is successful, then history will repeat itself, and the Xiao family and the Gu family will fall into endless suspicion and struggle.
Gu Feng'en scolded Xiao Dingquan as a coward. Because the efforts of his father, his brother, and the thousands of soldiers in his account were in vain, they bet the treasure in the hands of an indecisive man.
Gu Feng'en was desperate, because Xiao Dingquan also said a word: Even if you hold me hostage in the capital, I will eventually cut off your Gu family.
What is the relationship between Xu Changping and Xiao Dingquan?
In the original work, Xu Changping's father was Xiao Duo, the Prince of Su, and his mother was Empress Gu's maid when she was about to marry, and the two were sisters in love.
Originally, Xu Changping's father, Xiao Duo, was designed by Xiao Ruijian and Gu Silin, and after he was wrongfully admitted to zongzheng temple, his mother would have been implicated, but fortunately, Empress Gu intervened and sent her mother out of the palace.
At that time, he was in his mother's belly, and it can be said that if there was no good deeds of Empress Gu, there would be no later Xu Changping.
Therefore, in addition to Xu Changping's cousin relationship with Xiao Dingquan, there is also a more intimate relationship.
The reason why Xu Changping deliberately stayed between Xiao Ruijian and Xiao Dingquan was to overturn the case for his father.
Why did Xu Changping pay homage to the tree of Prince Lin?
As for the TV series, why would Xu Changping pay homage to the tree in the prince's forest?
I think it's because the plot is still different from the original.
"Prince Forest", as the name suggests, is a forest formed by trees planted by princes.
Indeed, in the world of the "Xiao Family", every newly established prince will personally plant a side cypress here.
But the cruelest thing is that not every prince can become a future emperor.
Therefore, Xu Changping paid homage here for only one reason, that is, his father was once made a "prince".
Why did Lu Wenxi say that Xiao Dingquan had broken the contract?
When Xiao Dingquan left her for Changzhou, he said that he was on this trip to meet the body of his uncle and would not be long before he would return.
But as soon as the camera turned, eight months had passed, and Xiao Dingquan was not by her side.
In the original work, Xiao Dingquan returned, but because the rebellion had become a fact, he was deposed by emperor Xiao Ruijian and once again entered zongzheng temple.
At Zongzheng Temple, for the sake of the Xiao family, he finally chose to commit suicide.
In the end, he failed to accompany Lu Wenxi to see this picturesque country together, which was a missed appointment.
Why did Lu Wenxi say that he had no worries?
That was because Lu Wenxi had already planned to follow Xiao Dingquan after giving birth to their child.
Eight months, exactly the time of full term.
Lu Wenxi happened to walk to Prince Lin that day, and there was a sharp pain in her abdomen, so she gave birth to Xiao Chen next to the smallest side cypress of Prince Lin.
And this smallest side cypress was planted by Xiao Dingquan in the first place.
After Xiao Chen was born, Lu Wenxi transformed into a white crane and soared above the blue sky with the white crane incarnated by Xiao Dingquan.
After Xiao Dingquan was deposed, the next crown prince was Xiao Dingliang, the sixth lang who had been saved by Lu Wenxi.
It is also because of Lu Wenxi's reasons, so the relationship between Xiao Dingliang and Xiao Chen is very good.
At this time, Emperor Xiao Ruijian was still alive, what was "waiting"?
I'm looking forward to Xiao Chen's story when she grows up...
