This article is the content analysis of episodes 2-5 of "The Legend of Ruyi", which only discusses the plot and characters, and does not evaluate the appearance and acting skills of any actor.
Should I say it or not, the power struggle in "The Legend of Ruyi" is really very naïve.
After Yongzheng died, the Queen Mother Zhen Huan forced her to commit suicide by taking poison in order to prevent the grounded Yixiu from having a chance to make a comeback.
Qianlong obviously knew that this matter had nothing to do with the Queen Mother, but he didn't dare to find out, and he tore his face with Huanhuan.
So, he thought of a clever plan - let the Queen Mother, who was supposed to live in Cining Palace, live in Shoukang Palace with the concubines.
Qianlong felt that this would make Huan Huan deflated, but in the end, he lost completely.
First of all, we don't really understand why Qianlong has to fight with Huanhuan.
How much does he care about Yi Xiu? Not necessarily.
It is not Qianlong's intention to be honored as the queen mother and queen mother, but it is suggested by a minister in the previous dynasty.
But he knew very well in his heart that Huan Huan didn't want Yi Xiu to stand side by side with him.
Yi Xiu is a woman who was rejected by the first emperor, and she once ordered to be grounded, and she could not come out unless she died, and it was reasonable for Qianlong not to let him out.
If he really let Yi Xiu go, he would be suspected of being unfilial to the first emperor.
The reason why he felt embarrassed was nothing more than because of Qing Sakura.
First, let Yi Xiu come out, Qing Ying can be filial piety, and second, if Yi Xiu recovers, Qing Ying will rely on many more.
At the same time, he had another idea in his mind.
After Yi Xiu died, he said to Qing Ying like this: This matter is over, that's it, if Jingren Palace is alive, you will always be implicated, and now that Jingren Palace has passed away, no matter how angry the emperor is, it can only end here.
Let's not discuss that in Qianlong's heart, Yi Xiu is a backer that Qing Ying can rely on, or will he be implicated in Qing Ying's disaster.
What is certain is that in his opinion, if Yi Xiu dies, Huan Huan will let Qing Ying go.
In this case, why did he have to toss Huan Huan and make her angry again?
Qianlong did not tell Huan Huan in advance, so he arranged for her to live in Shoukang Palace on the grounds that Cining Palace needed to be repaired.
On the surface, Huan Huan did suffer a dark loss, but in fact, it was Qianlong and Qingying who were injured.
Huan Huan knew very well that Qianlong wore small shoes for herself, in order to vent her anger to Qingying.
Her revenge is also very simple and straightforward.
First, erase Qing Ying from the canonization list, and second, let Qing Ying give Yi Xiu three years of filial piety in the Hidden Mansion.
Qianlong was shocked by this.
Could it be that he thought that the last Gongdou champion was a soft persimmon who swallowed his anger?
The funniest thing is that he was helpless against Huan Huan's counterattack, so he could only let Qingying be grounded.
Why Qingying was grounded, Qianlong knew it, and even Lang Huan could see it very clearly.
She knew that Qianlong refused to canonize the concubine because Qingying was grounded, persuaded him not to extend other people's rewards for Qingying, and suggested that he let the Queen Mother move to Cining Palace as soon as possible.
In this way, as soon as the Queen Mother is happy, she will also release the green cherry.
In fact, the Queen Mother did hope that Qianlong would intercede for Qingying.
That's how she can get down the stairs.
But Qianlong is strong.
He said that if he let the Queen Mother go to Cining Palace, but the Queen Mother refused to let Qingying out, wouldn't it be more difficult for him to do it.
He even said that Lang Huan thought things simple.
Please, you're thinking about things by yourself, okay?
Moreover, even if the Queen Mother insists on refusing to let go of the green cherries, can Qianlong really not let the Queen Mother move to Cining Palace for three years, and canonize the concubines for three years?
The emperor doesn't have the ability to help the people he likes, so he engages in such small actions that are not in the stream, which is really cheap.
What's more, it doesn't work at all.
Not to mention anything else, if they are not canonized for a long time, these concubines and their mothers' families will probably fall into trouble.
The canonization can't be delayed, but the Queen Mother's move can be delayed, but how long can it be delayed?
Not to mention, the Queen Mother has relatives on her side to help her put pressure on her.
Take 10,000 steps back and say, what if she lived in Cining Palace for three years?
It's just a small place, a little uncomfortable in my heart, and there is no substantial loss.
But Aozakura is different.
According to the setting in the play, as long as the Queen Mother does not agree, she will have to be grounded all the time.
If you don't live in a satisfactory house for three years and don't see each other for three years, who can suffer?
Of course, if Qianlong didn't like Qingying so much at all, it didn't matter if she was grounded in the palace or not, then it would be understandable.
Facts have proved that in the end, it was Qianlong who admitted defeat.
He offered to let the Queen Mother move to Cining Palace.
The queen mother took advantage of the situation and asked him to listen to the opinions of the old courtiers when he dealt with the government affairs.
Qianlong understood and said that he would make Huanhuan's relatives a first-class duke.
added the Chongqing emblem to Huan Huan.
However, the Queen Mother is indeed not the kind of person who is petty.
Qianlong finished showing filial piety on the front foot, and Huan Huan released the green cherry blossoms on the back foot.
It can be seen that if Qianlong had given the Queen Mother the steps earlier, Qingying would have been released a long time ago, and she would have been locked up for more than a month.
The emperor tried his best to toss for half a day, and only the world where Qing Sakura was injured was achieved.
It's not good, he actually annoyed Qing Sakura and deliberately let her be grounded in the dive for a longer period of time, right?
Otherwise, this operation is incomprehensible, and I really can't understand it.
