I thought I had seen it, but I didn't. After many years, I accidentally swiped on Douyin, and I suddenly decided to watch this film.
He Caitou once mentioned in the past of the slot, analyzing a work of art and trying to answer three questions, we will have a deep understanding of the core soul of the character, how the character sees himself, and how the character sees the surrounding environment of? How do people view the relationship between themselves and their environment? In this film, we try to analyze these three questions.
The opening scene of the film presents a grand but depressing atmosphere. Under the gorgeous setting, people in the palace do the prescribed things at the prescribed time in an orderly manner. This exuded a kind of vastness, as if the days of tomorrow were exactly the same as the days of today, and everything would continue in barrenness, according to some prescribed order. And the leader of this order is the emperor.
In such an environment, everything that is impossible is gradually becoming possible.
For example, the queen fell in love with the eldest son.
Why love?
When there is no love, people will try their best to obtain love, to obtain love itself, and no longer care who gives this thing. As the princess of Liang Guo, the queen has her self-esteem and arrogance. I don't want to ask for something you don't want to give. But there is no love for loneliness, Yunxiang became the one who gave her a beam of light in the deep palace.
Although Yunxiang is cowardly, he is a person who cherishes others. He didn't care about the throne and wanted to elope with Jiang Chan to Qingzhou. When their adultery was discovered by the queen, he explained that it was all his fault, not Chan'er's business. After discovering the queen's conspiracy, he stabbed himself with a knife, and was also distressed for the queen - it was all because of me and you, it would be fine without me. After being stabbed to death by the third brother, he didn't blame him. He just kept saying that Queen, I'm sorry for you. Behind this warmth is the love that the queen has been longing for.
His husband hangs up the portrait of his wife every day, and his heart is never on himself. The emperor didn't love her, she knew it. It was just a pawn at first, and she knew it. This chess piece can't have too much personal will, and any behavior against her is not allowed. There are two more medicines left, and they need to be refilled. She can bear it, but she is not reconciled.
When will it end? Yunxiang seems to have fallen in love with someone else, will his love be shattered? Every day, the fixed-point poison is poured in, and I feel the weakening of my nerves and the imminent death. She is going to make a fortune. Asking Imperial Physician Jiang's insider to do things for her is her way of getting rid of her rivals, and it is also a way to unite her teammates who have a common enemy.
She is going to do this. If she wants to plot a rebellion, it's better to just vent her anger.
Yuanjie is her own son, and someone who is willing to fight against her father and king for her. He would kneel and beg his father for not letting his mother drink the medicine. In order to not bear the heart to let her mother continue to drink medicine, she will rebel. Will end his life at the last minute to defend his mother. "Baby knows he can't win this battle." He knew his situation, but he still chose to stick to it.
Of course the battle was lost. A good person is occasionally cunning. Compared with a person who is always cunning, how can he be an opponent?
The emperor seems to be the biggest winner.
Knowing the adultery between his wife and his son, he could not bear it, and silently added poison to the queen, taking the medicine at a fixed point, and not a single bite was allowed.
Attacking the heart, visiting the eldest son who drew his sword and hurt himself, Xiaozhi seduced him to tell the queen's conspiracy.
When the third son killed the eldest son, it was the moment when he cried. He was distressed, "This is your brother!" The third son said, he was the one I killed. This is a huge challenge to his rules of loyalty, filial piety, benevolence and righteousness. The assassination of the third son made him understand his authority once again, and also made him see himself clearly, triggering his violence and choosing the thrill of victory in the competition. He finally won too. Next, there is a new battle.
The whole city is full of golden armor, and he has already made up his mind in the hall. A king's flag, swearing his authority, is a trump card. Not killing Prince Jie was his compromise, the kindness in his heart, and the beginning of a new round of enslavement.
Of course he won too. He has a kind of ease with victory, and he knows how to clean up the scene. He enjoys being condescending, watching the losers struggle in vain, and then having to come back and play by the rules he's already laid down.
The palace was calm again, and orderly order was established once again. At a fixed time, the medicine was delivered again.
He said to Yuanjie, I have long been willing to give you the throne, and there is only one condition, you watch your mother take medicine every day.
He wants to use this method to make Yuanjie recognize that he is the king of the world and his absolute authority. At the same time, he also wants to use this method to help Yuanjie stabilize the country in a cold-blooded way.
Ending, you ask me what is the ending of the film?
The medicine was still knocked over.
What kind of world is this? Absolute authority is like a net, and there is nowhere to escape. Either choice is a dead end. This absolute authority is the defense of the throne, but is the throne really what everyone wants?
If this is the case, Yuanxiang will not ask to depose the crown prince and go to Qingzhou. If he cares about the victory of the rebellion, he will not disclose the plan to his father. If he cared, he wouldn't just repeatedly say sorry to the queen before he died.
If this is the case, Yuan Jie will not be at ease following the emperor's decision to guard for three years, will not accept his teachings in his duty, and will no longer lead the army even when he knows that the war will fail. From beginning to end, he was a man who obeyed his father and did not want his mother to suffer!
Only the third prince wanted the throne, so he desperately killed his brother and seized his father. He is the one who is closest to the emperor in the whole movie, and the end is the worst. The reason is the emperor's words, I didn't give it, you can't ask for it.
What kind of world is this? Who rules such a world?
What kind of world does the emperor expect? Loyalty, filial piety and righteousness. But those who choose loyalty, filial piety, benevolence and righteousness will not end well. Disloyalty, filial piety, benevolence, and righteousness still do not end well. What he wants is not that others abide by the virtues of loyalty, filial piety, benevolence and righteousness, but to be absolutely loyal to him, filial piety, benevolence and righteousness, which cannot be violated. But what kind of person is the emperor himself? He has a long-lasting love for his ex-wife, Duke Ye, and once he finds out the real person, he immediately kills the whole family. Poisoning his own princess, killing his own son, and forcing others to admit his so-called authority. He has been living in an illusion, and he has never been able to accept himself. Perhaps only authority and the throne can give him a sense of security.
Gorgeous chrysanthemums, fireworks all over the city, he seems to have won the whole world, but he has lost everything.
