The long-awaited "Ruyi's Royal Love in the Palace" has finally come to its finale, but the complaints have not ended for a long time. From the beginning, Zhou Xun and Huo Jianhua, two 40-year-olds, played teenagers. From Qingying Hongli's slight cynicism to all kinds of sarcasm about the costumes and plot progression, the audience never got what they wanted, and the ending was bleak.
This reminds me of when I was in the first year of high school, a Chinese teacher solemnly emphasized the definition of perfection: Perfection means destroying beautiful things for others to see! Maybe it’s because you can’t get it or ask for it without success, so perfection will always remain in your heart.
Just like when Qingying asked the Queen Mother to give her a name in "Ruyi's Royal Love in the Palace", the Queen Mother gave her the name Ruyi and said: If it goes as you wish, that would be great. After all, the Queen Mother has more experience than Yi Yi, so she naturally understands the reason.
However, several years later, when Ruyi experienced various kinds of being framed and humiliated in court life, she was still the straightforward and calm Qingying who valued love and affection. She is righteous, she is upright and kind, she is courageous and sensible, but she is deeply affectionate and sticks to her original intention until the end. The young man who belongs to Qingying always lives in her heart. She still remembers the vow that she made once in her life. She is not for glory. , did not seek wealth, only looked forward to the warm companionship of ordinary couples, but she was disappointed in the end.
Ruyi once gave the emperor a handkerchief with "Qingying" and "Hongli" embroidered on it. The emperor cherished it very much and kept it carefully. The vows of a lifetime ended up being cut off at the end of the world.
When the emperor was just "Hongli", he especially liked Qingying (Ruyi). When his mother objected to his choice of Qingying (Ruyi), he resolutely He went to plead for mercy and saved Ruyi's side Fujin, and they had a companionship for the next few decades.
Palace life is not easy. You want to live a stable life, but others are thinking about fighting for favor and framing. Ruyi’s first days were not easy. She experienced being ridiculed. , was framed, and was thrown into the cold palace, only to receive the regret and love of the emperor later. However, at this time, the emperor was the emperor first and then the husband. This was his dilemma.
Fighting in the harem is not surprising. The most feared thing is jealousy and the desire to gain power by any means. For this reason, many people in the harem lost their lives. Ruyi had to start to defend and fight back. , but she always has a kind heart and is grateful to her former savior - Ling Yunche.
However, when the rumors about her and Ling Yunche spread, the emperor, who had always trusted her, became suspicious. This was also the beginning of the later tragedy. Although Ruyi is upright and kind, she is also straightforward, which is not pleasing to the face-loving emperor at all. The relationship between Ruyi and the emperor became weaker and weaker in the misunderstandings and disputes with the emperor again and again, and the separation between the emperor and the empress became The biggest tragedy of this show.
When they met for the last time, Ruyi’s words had profound meaning, and it became their last conversation. When Ruyi told Yongji that she hoped he could live free and happy, the emperor finally understood. Ruyi, so much so that when the Queen Mother asked the emperor why he buried Ruyi in the concubine's mausoleum instead of placing it according to the queen's standards, the emperor said frankly that he wanted to give Ruyi freedom.
Although palace life is prosperous and wealthy, it cannot be free after all. The rigid rules and etiquette restrict too many. No matter how exciting the previous plot is, the ending is always tragic. . That's perfection. Perfection is the thought left to others, the hard-earned expectation, the ordinary pursuit with heart, and the process of hard work to achieve it. May we also cherish the people around us and enjoy the happy moments in ordinary life.
