In many childhood memories of the post-80s and 90s, the trilogy of the costume drama "Returning the Pearl" adapted from the novel of the same name by Qiong Yao can be said to be a classic existence; the quirky little swallow , gentle The intelligent crape myrtle , the dignified and dignified Qinger and other characters are deeply rooted in the hearts of the people. The third part of the
trilogy is about the married life of two couples in the Qing court, Xiaoyanzi and 's fifth brother , Ziwei and Erkang , and the newly added character is named Knowing painting , she became a thorn between Xiaoyanzi and Yongqi.
In the end, after going through the war, Yongqi took Xiaoyanzi to hide in the field. Zhihua, who had done all the wrong things, could only guard his son and the glory and wealth in the palace. And Zhihuaming knew that Yongqi had gone into hiding among the people but did not go to him, which implied a deep meaning.
The mission of the family is hard to defy, and the glory and wealth are difficult to give up
In the first two parts of the Huanzhu trilogy, the protagonists Xiaoyanzi and the fifth brother, Ziwei and Erkang have experienced life and death, and they have deep feelings for each other. In particular, the two couples have gone through hardships and finally managed to be together and recognized.
In the end, at the end of the second drama, the two newlyweds got married with the support of the emperor. Although there was an oolong incident during the period, in the end, after a lot of busywork, they both got a happy ending.
But in the third part of the Huanzhu trilogy, the quirky little Swallow's erratic words and deeds still make it difficult to become a good wife and mother in the eyes of the Queen Mother, and even lost her relationship with Yongqi in a reckless miscarriage. The children, every piece of it has aroused the disgust of the Queen Mother who valued the prosperity of future generations.
Later, during the collective southern tour, the queen mother fell in love with Zhihua, the youngest daughter of Chen Bangzhi from a scholarly family in Haining. Qi is Fang Fujin. The parents of
Zhihua were very honored and agreed to the Queen Mother's request without hesitation. After returning to the palace, the queen mother, who had not liked Xiaoyanzi since before the marriage between Xiaoyanzi and Yongqi, discovered the family secret of the Xiaojian and brothers and sisters, and took advantage of this as a reason to coerce Yongqi and Zhihua into getting married.
Later, although Zhihua was forcibly inserted between Yongqi and Xiaoyanzi, Xiaoyanzi and Yongqi also had many conflicts because of the existence of Zhihua, but in the end Yongqi stayed away from the palace with Xiaoyanzi and returned to the countryside. .
's scheming Zhihua finally came to nothing. Those who couldn't keep her husband, let alone her husband's heart; Zhihua, who was responsible for the rise and fall of the entire family, naturally couldn't go into hiding with Yongqi. Because she is under the moral shackles of family affection and filial piety, it is difficult for her to violate the family mission, and it is even more difficult for her to give up her hard-won glory and wealth.
Even before entering the palace, Zhihua, a daughter of an aristocratic family, grew up with brocade clothes and jade food, and never suffered any hardships in life without food and clothing, so Zhihua, who was most likely abandoned by her husband, must have been sad. Will guard the son and mother to spend the rest of their life with Zigui.
Although this kind of life does not have the care of her husband, at least she does not have to worry about food and clothing, and she can still envy others with her noble status as the prince's widow.
However, if Zhihua insisted on following Yongqi, not to mention whether Yongqi and Xiaoyanzi, who wanted to avoid him, would agree, it would be a huge change from a beautiful girl in the sky to an ordinary peasant woman who ploughs the countryside. It is unacceptable to Zhihua. In addition,
has to suffer from long-distance bumps, windy meals and rough sleep, it is impossible for Zhihua, who is skilled in calculation, to do such a loss-making business that does more harm than good.
Immortal couples, get involved in hopeless
In addition to the practical problems involving their own economic interests, one of the reasons why Zhihua did not go into hiding with Yongqi is that the relationship between the two is not harmonious; Zhihua also knows that he has no worries about food and clothing in the palace And it is difficult to win Yongqi's favor under the conditions that the queen mother prefers to exert her talents, let alone among the people.
Zhihua, as a noble girl from a family, has long been accustomed to living a life of being served since she was a child. If you are guaranteed wealth and honor, then all your talents and advantages will have nowhere to be displayed.Not to mention pleasing her husband.
Zhihua had a certain understanding of the people and things in the palace before marrying the fifth elder brother Yongqi, and the vigorous love story between Xiaoyanzi and the fifth elder brother in the palace is even more ignorant and unfamiliar. Xiao, so Zhihua must know the deeds of Yongqi and Xiaoyanzi by heart, but she is still confident that with time, Yongqi can change her heart. With this self-confidence,
got involved in the marriage of a loving couple, but the reality was far from what she expected. Yongqi's sincere love for Xiaoyanzi made the self-confident Zhihua compete for favor. Every time I hit a wall in the process.
Although later with Zhihua frequently playing tricks to frame the neurotic Xiaoyanzi, there was a rift between Yongqi and Xiaoyanzi, and Zhihua took advantage of the situation and entered the home of the frustrated Yongqi, and the two later reunited. They have a son named Mian Yi, but all kinds of misunderstandings are nothing to fear in front of the two who truly love each other.
After experiencing many things together, Xiaoyanzi Yongqi saw each other's hearts clearly, and finally released the suspicion and reconciled as before. On the other hand, Zhihua, on the other hand, lost himself in the deception and gained a son, and gained nothing.
Generally speaking, the affection between Xiaoyanzi and Yongqi began when they were young, when the emotion was pure and sincere, and whether they could accompany them for the rest of their lives, they were often hard-working and unforgettable.
In addition, Xiaoyanzi and Yongqi have experienced many things together, and the relationship between the two has become deeper and deeper bit by bit, which is not something that can be shaken by a knowledgeable painting. Obviously Zhihua also understands this, so Zhihua, who can't get Yongqi's sincere love in the palace, will naturally not do such useless work as going into hiding with someone who doesn't love him.
The emperor's holy orders cannot be violated
In addition, the palace people who have witnessed the journey of Xiaoyanzi and the fifth elder brother know that it is not easy. In addition to deep regret, friends in the family have respected and blessed.
Even the emperor who is in the ninth five supreme can't do anything about his own children, so he has to acquiesce. Therefore, Emperor Qianlong issued an edict after the fifth prince left to announce that the fifth prince in the world died of smallpox infection. Since then, there will be no fifth prince in the palace.
The emperor said to Zhihua, the widow of the fifth brother: "The fifth brother has now passed away. Whether you want to accept it or not, this is a fact, and you must accept it." The emperor's holy orders cannot be violated, and Zhihua can only be careful Follow the emperor's order.
Zhihua knew that Yongqi had gone into hiding, but did not go to the people to find him, mainly because the family mission was difficult to violate, and Qianlong's imperial order was even more inviolable.
And Zhihua knows that he has neither the love of Yongqi nor the determination to let go of glory and wealth, so he can guard his son Mianyi and stay in the harem to survive, and this is the best choice for the rest of his life, at least he can enjoy himself. Honored and rich, the family is also blessed by the emperor's grace.
