Although it mainly tells the story of Henry VIII and his wives, this season focuses on Queen Catherine and Anne Boleyn. This drama still focuses on the relationship between these people. It makes me think and look back. History is more about people. With people? Isn't history written by people:

Henry VIII & Catherine of Catherine of
Aragon is not nothing. As the daughter of King Ferdinand II of Spain and Queen Isabella, political marriage is never as simple as it seems that men and women love each other. Henry VII, Henry VIII’s father understood the weight of Spanish power, so he desperately told Catherine to stay in England. And Catherine, who was lost and unable to return home, was married to her second son Henry, who was 6 years younger than herself, and had to continue her life in England.
Marriage is not easy for two people. What's more, Catherine's husband is Henry VIII. Not to mention the queen of Henry VIII is Catherine of Aragon.
The evaluation of Henry VIII in later generations mostly came from his six wives and his children who died young but did not agree with each other. He is just an ordinary man, he likes beautiful girls, he is keen to show his masculinity, he is very happy, he likes his supreme position, and he is trapped by his love.
Catherine possessed the father of King Ferdinand II of Aragon and the wealthy and adventurous spirit that supported the expedition of Columbus. Conquered Queen Isabella I of Castile of Granada, her sister Juana’s son, and her nephew , To inherit all Charles V, not only the Roman emperor, but also the heir of the Habsburg dynasty.
We have no way of knowing whether the political marriage between two people is happy. But the marriage of two people cannot be decided by the two. There is a problem with the character setting in

Henry VIII & Margaret's
play, and Henry's sister is not named Margaret. The only Margaret married to Scotland and eventually became the king's grandmother.
Margaret is Henry's sister. Blood kinship seemed to be irrelevant to Henry at the beginning. But when the frustrated sister returned overseas, married a little nobleman, and finally died, Henry was still sad, angry, and helpless.

Henry VIII &
Anne Boleyn, the girl who played Anne looks really good. Bringing out Annie's cunning cleverness and alluring charm.
Anne marrying Henry is not all true love...
1. Sister fell out of favor, no one in the family, the father is very worried
2. She and her sister have served in the French court, the French court, think about her sister, Anne really Can you keep your virginity or innocence?
3. To marry. If you marry early and look beautiful, you will not worry about girls. I wanted to marry another person before.
I think that only Henry in love can satisfy all Anne’s requirements and fantasies: single-minded, strong, wealthy, enthusiasm...Of course, only Henry in love can, no Who is born to be a masochist, let alone the king

Margaret & the little nobleman
who is inexhaustible. The little nobleman is very interesting. Originally Marguerite was also very interesting. After killing the King of Portugal, marrying a small nobleman, she basically followed the traditional woman route, enthusiastically loving someone who might not love herself so much, losing the pride, independence, and independence of the princess. reason.
The little nobleman hooked up everywhere, otherwise how would he climb onto the princess's bed... Basically, as long as it is a human or a woman, there is nothing he dare not think about. There is a very interesting dialogue: when meeting the king and queen in France, the little nobleman tried to hook up with the queen and persuaded the queen that it was revenge. The queen said: Does your beautiful wife take revenge on you in the same way?

Others:
gorgeous background, shiny costumes, intricate relationships. From a historical point of view, the story is a bit procrastinated; from a plot point of view, the character's attitude and speed are in place.
I personally think that Catherine's acting is very good. In the few appearances, she set up her personal style with a dignified and noble costume. At any rate, she is also the daughter of the famous Queen Isabella. She is the guardian of marriage, the shelter of her daughter, and the protection of Europe. I really like the proficient and elegant mediation. To say that I lose, I just lost to the heart of a man, a wish that I thought but was never obtained.
