The show is also based on the founding history of the Tudor dynasty in England. Compared with Henry VIII and his father, he is much inferior. It was probably because of marrying Elizabeth that it became popular.
People who don't understand British history at first are probably confused, and they may give up after two episodes. In fact, I found out that at the beginning, the heroine obeyed all the arrangements of the mother, and then she may have established her own family because of having children, and began to think about her husband.
In fact, the behavior and psychological progress of the heroine before and after the whole drama has changed significantly. At first, her little cousin was imprisoned in the tower, and she would ask her husband to apply for the right to visit when he was in a good mood, of course, to bypass the surveillance of the "Queen Dowager". But then she also agreed to execute her own younger brother and cousin in order for her son Arthur to marry the Spanish princess to consolidate the status of the dynasty. This was a very important transformation. But it doesn't mean that she is cold-blooded, she has grown up and can make choices for the dynasty.
She was very angry when she learned that her mother was allied with the rebels, because she knew that the war could bring death to Henry. She severed ties with her mother in public. Later, her mother was seriously ill and accompanied her on the last journey. The White Princess is still flesh and blood.
As for the "Empress Dowager", she really reaps the consequences, constantly protecting her son with well-meaning lies, even at the risk of innocent children's lives.
The play is about the process from a princess to a queen, but the title of the play always retains the title of princess. Elizabeth always maintained her kind heart when she was in power, and insisted on using the least harm to achieve her goal.
For history fans, this show is OK. After all, it is loyal to history, but the selected historical background is not strong enough to attract attention.
Regarding the curse that Elizabeth said in the mouth, it finally came to life in history. Arthur died young and his second son came to the throne, and then Henry VIII came into being.
