When Elizabeth Bathory died sadly in the castle where she was imprisoned, the beauty, power, wealth, and love of the past had long since left her. History is only written by the victors. Time can't wait to bury everything.
Before being claustrophobic, the Countess said with a smile that this bloody story about her must have been around for a long time. After she finished speaking, she gave Ai Lang a gentle last look, and walked towards the final coffin without looking back.
The beginning of the story is short and compact. This is a hardened and determined woman, courageous and intelligent, and together with her husband who is able to conquer and fight, they have built the most powerful family in the kingdom, and even the king is indebted to them. At this time, the count died, and the widowed countess met the young nobleman, like the happy beginning of thousands of tragic stories. The weak relationship between the aristocratic father makes the relationship between the two fall apart, and Elizabeth can only waste time in anxious waiting. At this time, the notorious playboy stepped in to comfort Elizabeth's empty soul. In her despairing insistence on love, Elizabeth began to water her gradually declining heart with pure virgin blood... Things have developed here, even if it is not normal, it is reasonable.
It was not until the lover, the lover's father, and the playboy, who had disappeared for many years, sat together, all the clues were connected in an instant, and a huge conspiracy rose into the sky. Beginning with the suspicious death of the Count in his prime, the marriage proposal of the lover's father, the appearance of the lover, the disappearance of the lover, the pursuit of the playboy... The net of sin gradually tightens. The lover, who kept talking about love and longing, lived a moist and tight life, neither was he exhausted by the torment of love, nor had he overcome many obstacles to visit his lover, no one had bound his hands and feet, poked his eyes, and he sat peacefully with Yan Yuese. There he heard how his father planned to take Elizabeth's fortune - that would make him the most powerful man in Europe. The first time he went to see her after several years, was to send her to a dead end. This strong, brave and confident woman has actually been toyed with by several men.
The torment of love and the long wait made Elizabeth go crazy, but when she saw her lover riding a horse, her eyes instantly became as soft as the willow branches in early spring, and her cheeks flew again even though a lot of blood. The fresh and rosy she couldn't bring, she looked at him obsessively, put his hand on his cheek and whirled, she forgot all the hatred so quickly and forgave him, without asking the truth, not pouring out her heart, she persistently believed that he was still deep Love her as much as she does. Like all gentle ladies in love, Elizabeth has no trace of the madness in her eyes.
The lover's hands were cold, and he was lying beside the demon head in an indistinct speech, and in the middle of the night, he crept away to find evidence of her murder. Elizabeth opened her eyes sadly, and big tears rolled down her face. She didn't understand anything. The lover defended the entourage's weakness outside the door, but couldn't wait to visit her torture instrument; Elizabeth, with tears in her eyes, combed her hair resolutely, waiting for the last moment to come. For all women, such emotional lingchi is too cruel, but Elizabeth never thought she had made any mistake from beginning to end, even if she fell in love with such a man. Before she was put into a prison cell, the truth finally came out. All her property belonged to her lover and his father, and the huge arrears of the king finally became clouds. During the siege, the sand fell into the halberd, and the whole country mourned for it. It wasn't just her power that terrified them, but the fact that there was one woman above many men, a secret that will now be forever changed by a bloody horror story.
For most of her time in captivity, Elizabeth prayed to God for a quick death, because suicide can only go to hell - she never thought she had done anything sinful, she did nothing but the bloodstained battlefields in history. Like a hero. The success of the winner has stepped on the corpses of millions of people, but unfortunately, as a loser, she has lost such rights. But in the end, Elizabeth stopped believing in God, "Faith is just an unsolved puzzle that people use to comfort themselves. There is no difference between a thick burial and a corpse, and the holy water is no different from the filth. I am afraid of death because I will decay after I die. There is nothing left. Love is a dagger stuck in my back." She bit her veins, and in the morning light, she closed her eyes as beautiful and calm as a saint.
When the lover came, Yiren's grave was already overgrown with weeds. He only glanced at it. In his words, the cowardice and helplessness of the victor, the prince, the loser, the thief, the truth has been buried by the high wall, and time will heal everything. That time she couldn't beat after all. Hearing my lover's sentence "I only know that no matter what crime she committed, I love her deeply, and I believe she loves me too", I broke down instantly, this is the best ending to this not gorgeous story , full of irony and black humor, such "love" is really a dagger stuck in the back, an unexpected fatal blow, when he turned his head, he fell to the ground with a stunned expression. The subtitles appeared, and I cried silently for a long time at the end of the short scale full of tension. Heartache, like the palpitations of being pushed from a high platform in an instant, makes it hard to breathe. This is obviously not a horror story, nor is it purely a love story. It tells about the power of faith, history and time. Anything we can get will eventually be lost, and our story will also be altered by staged victors. Unrecognizable, a woman can have everything, but love is always the dagger hanging behind your back, which catches you off guard at a certain moment.
