Chinese history has not been studied well, so one should not try to sort out foreign history. The British Tudor dynasty is even more complicated and complicated. I have always stayed away from the battle of imperial power and theocratic power, and the intrigue within the palace. However, the movie "The Other Boleyn Girl" (The Other Boleyn Girl) is like Antipasto. It is easy to watch the film, full of interest, and I can't help but study the Tudor Henry VIII and his couple. Anecdote of a queen. Understand Elizabeth I's mother Anne. Anne Boleyn (Anne Boleyn) is only a three-year queen in history. How she made waves and knocked down the Queen’s throne for 24 years and was generally accepted and loved by the people. Catherine of Aragon (Catherine) of Aragon), what influence and effect did she have on the break between Henry VIII and the Holy Court? And, in just three short years, what made Henry VIII never wait to get divorced and marry her to Zhu Bi personally criticize it! ? It caused her to suffer a nervous breakdown, and her head was in a different place, and she lacked a decent tombstone?



Companion with a monarch is like a companion with a tiger. There is another point that Chinese people often say: leave room for everything and don't stop doing it. Although this room seems to be left to others when you have the upper hand, it is actually left to yourself. Anne instigated Henry VIII to drive away Queen Catherine, tortured and wanted to execute Catherine’s daughter Mary (Anne asked Mary to serve her daughter Elizabeth, and later, Jane Simon also asked Mary and Elizabeth to give her son Edward The servants are fashionable to use the enemy as slaves, are you not afraid of being scammed? Really talented people are bold). Henry VIII can be merciless to the queen who has been with him for twenty-four years. What will happen to you in the future? Everyone overestimates himself and underestimates others, thinking that he is different from others and he will not fall into the same fate. The retribution came so quickly that Henry VIII declared that “the marriage with Anne was simply cursed by heaven” and was also charged with a lot of slanderous charges such as adultery, incest, and treason. Speaking of the definition of the crime of treason, it is also very interesting. Henry VIII can sleep and mess around, and there is no problem at all, but if the queen commits adultery, it is treason and must be sentenced to death. Is it possible that the private part of the queen is state property? Once touched by a man other than the king, he will betray the king’s country, so treason? Oh, could it be Wang Tu in the whole world, but Annie didn't sleep with foreigners. Anyway, it was Wang's man and woman, behind closed doors and family. What country would she betray? There is also a paradox: Henry VIII refused to admit his marriage to Anne. Since Anne and you are not married, who does she sleep with? How can adultery be committed? Henry VIII used the adultery charge of this wife to be convicted twice to kill a wife who was not his wife.



Annie. After Bolling ascended to the throne, “the pomp is bigger than the former queen Catherine. She has more than 250 servants full-time and 60 noble maids to accompany her. Anne bought many luxurious dresses, jewelry, feather fans, carriages, Furniture, etc., and several palaces were re-decorated to suit her taste." I think she must be very busy, in just three years, to do so many things, and everything is arranged properly, she was put to death, sorrow, and nothing What I have enjoyed is really embarrassing!



In historical records, it does not appear in "The Other Boleyn Girl" (The Other Boleyn Girl), Annie's younger sister (a sister) Mary. Mary Boleyn went to intercede for Annie. Mary. Boleyn may be Henry VIII's lover, may have had an illegitimate child with Henry VIII, and may have competed with Annie for Henry VIII, but she is far from being as brave and sisterly as described in the movie. After her sister Anne and her brother were charged with incest and adultery in the Tower of London, she did not visit them. She may be a very romantic person, and later married the poor, living in distress.




In addition to the protagonists of the movie, Henry VIII and the sisters Bolin, we should also pay attention to the fate of other people:
Catherine of Aragon (Catherine of Aragon) died two years after being driven out of the palace. It is rumored that Henry VIII and Anne were chronically poisoned. On the day of Catherine's death, Anne aborted and shed a baby boy she had longed for. Everyone has to say that mediation is retribution. The rumor of being poisoned to death is because it is said that Queen Catherine's heart is discolored, and modern medicine says that cancer will also discolor. Catherine insisted to the death that she was the queen, snarling Ah Q's spirit, roaring.

Catherine’s daughter Mary, the girl standing in front of Catherine’s bed in the movie, later ascended to the throne and reigned for five years. She killed more than 300 opponents and won the "Bloody Mary" name. It was all because Anne gave her too much excitement. (Look at her portrait, it's really hostile).

Anne's daughter was later the famous virgin queen Elizabeth I, who ruled Britain for 45 years. Henry VIII could execute his queen at will. The charge was infidelity, which fully demonstrated that it was an era of extreme patriarchy. Then, it was strange that Mary I and Elizabeth I could ascend to the throne and stay in peace for a long time. What's even stranger is: After Elizabeth I ascended the throne, did not give her mother Anne Boleyn a rehabilitative burial of the posthumous posthumous Queen Mother Yide or something? Annie. Bolin didn't get a tombstone until the time of Queen Victoria.



"Another Pauline Girl" depicts a series of court disputes surrounding Henry VIII's male heir. Anne said that her children could become legal contingents on the throne. In history, the day after she was beheaded, Henry VIII and her maid Jane Seymour (Jane Seymour) got married (always so every second!), married ten days later, and gave birth to his son Edward a year later (after the short-lived Edward) I), Anne's daughter Elizabeth was deprived of the title of princess and declared an illegitimate daughter. Similarly, in history, Henry VIII occupied the throne for his own family. He married N many queens, and in the end only one son and two daughters had the right to continue. He amended the inheritance law many times, and finally allowed his sons and daughters to inherit the throne, but it was just a facsimile. He did not expect that his children would have no heirs and the throne would be unsustainable. The shrewd one has a second hand: if he has no children, let his younger sister's children continue. I'm sorry, my sister's son has no future, and the line is also broken. It's absolutely heaven for him too!



The last thing to mention is: Henry VIII is far less handsome than in the movie! "Henry VIII was seriously overweight in his later years, with a waist circumference of 54 inches (137 cm, pig!)," said he was also suffering from syphilis (Fang Hongjian said that syphilis can also stimulate geniuses genetically). Henry VIII began to be overweight in 1536 (that is, Annie in the movie after he was executed), isn't it a coincidence? However, Henry VIII loves art, and he did not expect to be a Queen Li.
