It's only 12 episodes to raise the audience's taste, what do you do with domestic dramas in the future?

Text/Scarlett

watched "Under the Prosperous City" five times, and still felt that the details of this drama were well done. Looking at the first episode again, the county magistrate looked at the corpse of the cold catcher and said, this murderer is a scholar, I laughed to death, yes, you put this spoiler aside, but no one pays attention. The acting skills of the county order are really wonderful.

However, there is a question, I believe there are still many friends who can't figure it out, that is, does Qu San know that his master killed his father?

Actually, the reason why the little friend has this question is mainly because in the early stage, the screenwriter gave Qu San's gold finger was too strong, and then in the later stage, he suddenly became dumb.

You watch the first episode, after the third watch got the master's body back to the yamen, he immediately compared the poles and concluded that the master was passed through the body by the sedan pole.

It shows that the screenwriter wants us to think that this young man is attentive and willing to work, right?

This is the first advantage of the three more, remember, attentive.

Then, the screenwriter asked the third watch to use a strategy to get Yi Zhutou away from the errand of the assistant fast class.

What does it say about him?

He is very observant, good at summarizing the characteristics of others, finding the strengths and weaknesses of others, and then formulating corresponding strategies.

He observed that Yi Zhutou was very greedy, so he used his greed to conflict with the visit and fight, and also used his greed to design him to find the history of the Song Dynasty, and finally lost the fat difference of the boss of the fast class catcher.

Remember, the second advantage of the three watches is that they are good at observing, good at recognizing people, good at thinking, and very smart.

After Yi Catcher was out, the third watch ended the visit and fight by the way.

The screenwriter told us that it was his long-cherished wish to put an end to these two organizations that relied on the power of the Yamen to lead the people. He wanted to get rid of them a long time ago, but Master wouldn't let him. However, the master gave him instructions on the method, so he secretly collected evidence, and when the master hung up, he finally made a move.

How did he make a move?

Just go directly to the brothers of the yamen and arrest the five leaders of them, and the matter is over.

To be honest, if it was so simple, why didn't you do it in the first place?

Naturally, the cold catcher didn't want to. His sense of justice, just like when he persuaded Lu Zhi not to avenge Qiao Gou'er, would not be poured out for no reason.

So, in fact, in this matter, we should be able to summarize three points:

First, the sense of justice of the cold catcher is actually none.

The sense of justice of the second and third watches is bursting.

Three, the third watch to his master, many actions should actually be completely opposite, the link to them is the third watch thinks, his master's feelings for him.

The above things, we should be able to fully outline the aura that the screenwriter gave to the three watches is:

Careful, intelligent, with a sense of justice, and strong in action.

Before the highlight of Song Dianshi in episode 6, the role of the third watch, in addition to his poor acting skills, everyone thought that he took the script of the big male protagonist, and the logic of this drama should be the routine of the four-person investigation team with the third watch as the core to work together to solve the serial murder case.

The screenwriter doesn't seem to want to do it at all.

If this routine continues, the third watch will find out that it is ironclad for the master to kill his father.

This is something that a big male protagonist will inevitably discover with the aura given by the screenwriter, and it is also the most important part of the character's growth, he has to go through the test of reality and demons.

However, after Song Dianshi appeared, I felt that the direction of the screenwriter had changed.

Although we don't shoot TV series while broadcasting, but, judging from this sudden change in the plot, I actually have reason to speculate (just personal speculation), maybe the acting skills of the actor who played the third watch were too rigid, and finally changed the screenwriter's mind.

Let the third watch take on such a big role and changes, he can't act.

As a result, the focus of the second half was given to the history of the Song Dynasty.

If you understand it this way, you can completely explain why the first episode of the third watch appeared with a big male protagonist, and the person who identified the material of the murder weapon without saying a word, in the end, stupidly didn't know anything, and the final finale ended with the apricot blossom poem of Song Dianshi.

If the actor hadn't secretly poked and changed to Song Dianshi, why did he let him end it?

Logically speaking, Sanmore has always thought that he is very smart, he is meticulous and smart, he wants to design which head-catching boss, which head-catching boss has to leave, he should get greater growth in this matter to transform, and complete the task of the protagonist's re-upgrade.

And, in the face of his master killing his father, this character will move from an ordinary goldfinger male protagonist to a three-dimensional.

Just like Batman's face with the death of his parents, it is the opportunity for his transformation.

But the screenwriter didn't let it.

After episode 6, the screenwriter made Song Dianshi the soul of the main line.

Think about it, the third watch said that when Leng Zhutou was alive, he had no friendship with his father, no contact, and was not a friend. However, after his father died, Leng Zhutou suddenly treated him very well.

What the fuck means means that there is a problem in the middle, and there is nothing to do, and it is either a traitor or a thief! I'm blind, I can't read, but I'm a woman, and I don't dare to resist.

There is a kind of powerless and powerless person who does not dare to move at all when the big hand of fate is fiddling, and he does not even dare to doubt it.

With the carefulness of the three watches, and the ability to reason, he doesn't wonder?

Logically he should have doubted, but the screenwriter wouldn't let it.

When everything had come to light, he already knew that the day his father died was the day of the fire in the Lu family, and his master was also involved in this matter, and his father happened to die on that day to put out the fire.

So is his father just the opposite of his master's position?

And after his father died, his master suddenly treated him very well.

What is the reason, you say?

If it wasn't for his master who killed his father, could it be that his master saw his father's heroism in fighting fires, and he, as a member of the yamen, expressed his admiration for him and treated his son very well?

It should be noted that the cold catcher is in the same group as the arson, he should hate the bad thing of fighting the fire, how can he admire?

Logically, this kind of goodness can only be understood as a compensation for guilt.

Sanmore is such a smart person, and he can't think of such an obvious logical relationship? When he designed everyone in the early stage, he was smart.

And, even if he couldn't think of it, Xiao Baozi finally wrote everything out. Do you think he would have written about the killing of his husband? Logically, he wouldn't write that he saw his husband killed, because he was really beautiful, but he would definitely write that his husband died because of it. It's a fact.

And, with Xiao Baozi's ability to investigate the case, he must be able to guess that Leng Zhutou killed the father of the third watch, and he can even dig up Chen Wang's body and whip it for you.

Therefore, at the end of the TV series, the third watch sent poems to Chunxing without any, and then let Song Dianshi, the only pure end of the whole play, it can only be said that the screenwriter may have changed his mind and gave his love for the role of Sanchang to Song Dianshi.

Or, you see that the third watch is a person who killed so many brothers in the Yamen, and he didn't receive any punishment at all, whether it was in his heart or position, this is really unreasonable. He can still do it so comfortably and quickly, it can only be said that the screenwriter doesn't want to expand this line, so the whole people love Song Dianshi to divert their attention.

The role of the third watch really started from Goldfinger, but it was so bleak that it was silent.

This role, if it is played by Zhang Ruomou, or Zhu Moulong, it must be different, or Liu Mouran will be fine.
