    Personally, i didn't like Consort Shu's dead in Ruyi's Royal Love In The Palace, besides that she one of my favorite characters, her details about her death were never shown in the drama right after she died (similar with Concubine Yi) despite being a real historical character, like Noble Consort Chun and Jia, maybe was due to her wrong death date since Ruyi's was still alive back then.

  • @galleryguide9913
    @galleryguide9913 Před rokem +44

    This video illustrates how different a historical costume drama can be from actual history. The screen play is essentially a detective story of Ruyi and Hailan as the Sherlock Holmes and Watson characters with the Dowager as a sort of forensic detective. The way that the character of the Qianlong emperor is written, he is something of a half wit who is living in the midst of a group of female serial killers. Seems a little odd to me that the writers would have taken this approach with one of the more successful emperors of the Qing dynasty. Given the youth that many of the women would have been when they entered the palace and the rather limited education of most of them it is hard to imagine how they would have acquired the knowledge to hatch such complicated murder plans and given how rule bound the imperial household was and the fact that the women were constantly attended and practically never alone it is hard to see how some of the elaborate schemes could be carried out. One difficulty I had with the overall look of the series is the fact that they chose to employ the aesthetics of the late 19th to early 20th centuries for fashions rather that the 18th century. Also the rather elaborate hair on the part of the female maids and attendants would have been impossible from a practical point of view if one had to be on call nearly constantly to have to appear in such elaborate hairpieces, even if some if it were not real it would still take some time to put together rendering any practical service impossible at short notice.

      @Raunak actually not confusing because the drama Zhen Huan and Yanxi or Ruyi are continuation. At the end of Zhen Huan, the empress of Yong Zheng was put into seclusion because she did many things. That was why in Yanxi and Ruyi, the first empress was Fucha. And actually, choosing an empress was really tight. Based on family background and also the personality. Empress Fucha at the time of selection was the perfect choice, even the second prince was named by emperor Yong Zheng, and when he passed, he was granted crown prince title.
