Gongdou drama is definitely suitable for all ages and bloody. The protagonists of
are often ignorant idiots who are betrayed by the people around them, and then gradually become disrespectful in order to survive, and finally reach the pinnacle of power.
Of course, some are made up by screenwriters to cater to the audience's preferences, but some are real.
Today, let's talk about the ruthless men in Europe in the Middle Ages, gave birth to eight children and was firmly seated as the queen, and even ruled France-
"The Serpent Queen"
The Serpent Queen
Catherine de Medici, Italian nobleman, queen of France from 1547 to 1559.
Why the Italians can be the queens of France, I have to talk about the political marriage between medieval Europe.
This is also the basic operation for nobles to consolidate their wealth, marrying a princess from this royal family to another royal family.
intermarryed each other, so everyone is strictly relatives, and it is also called to maintain the purity of noble blood, so they gave birth to a bunch of mentally retarded children.
and generally not good-looking, the appearance is very general.
Today, if I want to talk about the protagonist Catherine, she looks very ordinary.
has an average face and average body, and doesn't look very smart.
When Catherine was born, her parents had already set a doll for her to kiss - the other is the prince of France.
was ill-fated, Catherine's mother was taken care of and died during confinement, and her father died of syphilis.
With no father or mother, her family was in decline, Catherine was not able to live a life of fine clothes and food, but was tortured instead.
In the monastery, she starved every day and was taught by the nuns.
And in order to win over France, the Pope at that time wanted to use Catherine's marriage to discuss cooperation with France.
But Catherine has never experienced the outside life at all, she has never even seen a few men in Dalian since she was a child, and now she is about to get married suddenly, she is almost dumbfounded.
In order to wrap her up so that it would not be too embarrassing, Catherine was forcibly dragged to learn dancing and court etiquette.
After some preparations, a mighty team, both by boat and carriage, finally came to France.
The then king of France had two sons. The eldest son of
is the crown prince. He is arrogant, arrogant and domineering, which is very annoying. In contrast, the younger son, , Henry , is much more stable. He seems to be silent and very reserved. When
first came into contact, Catherine was immediately infected by Henry's smile. Besides, when she was in her teens, and she had never been in a relationship before, she was easily attracted to boys her same age. After
, the two held a grand wedding in front of the king, the Pope and other royal palace nobles.
Of course, there is also a small episode here, because Catherine has been captured in the church civil strife before, so the Pope is very worried about her virginity.
deliberately asked someone to "verify his identity" before departure.
That's not enough, the Pope even directly asked to witness their wedding night.
True Witness.
A group of people gathered around the bed, and then, like watching a film, they watched and discussed.
This is not made up by the screenwriter, but the real history.
Under the eyes of everyone, the couple embarrassedly completed the round house. After
, the audience also applauded, probably to cheer the new couple.
After the shameful scene was over, everyone left, and then Henry suddenly turned his face and asked Catherine to get out.
Catherine grew up in cynicism, she knows what to do and sees people's faces.
But when the wedding night came out like this, she was still a little surprised. Is it because I didn't do it well enough?
clearly said that my cousin told me to be bold and not to lose the face of the royal family.
The "cousin" in Catherine's mouth is this golden retriever.
This Golden Retriever was a warm welcome to Catherine, who had just arrived, and taught her a lot of the court's sophistication, especially to Henry and Golden Retriever.
Catherine also believed in her, thinking that she had to be unrestrained in order to give her husband a face.
Who knows, this is a trap.
After Catherine was left out on her wedding night, the more she thought about it, the more wrong she became, so she wanted to make it clear to Henry.
pushes the door, good guy, Golden Retriever is entangled with Henry.
Henry seems to be harmless to humans and animals, but in fact, it is because his father and brother's halo is too strong, so he seems to be low-key.
He himself has never been shy about emotional needs, especially physical needs.
Besides, the royal family at that time didn't have close relatives and couldn't mess around with this concept, so when Sister Golden Retriever wanted to take advantage of it, he naturally refused to come.
To make matters worse, there was an accident in Italy within a few days, Catherine's big patron, the Pope, died, and the promised dowry wealth was not in place.
If France really turns its face, Catherine has no children and half daughters, but life would be better than death.
So in order to survive, she has to grab her husband's heart right away, and she has to get pregnant right away, right away!
In the real history, Catherine gave birth to 8 children before and after, but there is one detail that is very interesting. Her first child was born very late, and it was only in the 11th year of his marriage.
Catherine is well prepared, but her husband just can't go to his bed at night, what should I do?
So in order to win over her husband's heart, Catherine started a plan.
The first thing she has to deal with is the golden retriever .
Although this golden retriever has many tricks, she is old.
She also tested whether Henry could marry her, but Henry laughed outright, you are too old.
is so angry with Sister Jin Mao that she washes herself with cold water every day, in the name of "tightening the skin".
On the other hand, Catherine kept saying good things about Henry in front of the king, saying that she was not pregnant because her stomach was disappointing, not that Henry didn't come.
Henry felt a little embarrassed when he heard it, so he reluctantly went to "complete the task".
is really reluctant, perfunctory like a ruthless planter, putting on his pants and leaving.
I can't wait, Catherine can only find another way, if you don't have a baby with me, then I can only have a baby with someone else.
Catherine took the groom's offer and got him together.
but, still not pregnant.
Since this trick can't be done with Pharaoh, he can only do another more ruthless trick and take Henry away.
Under the operation of Catherine, Henry played for France and went to war.
Golden Retriever also laughed and thought she had the upper hand, but didn't know that Catherine's abacus had hit the atmosphere.
If Henry dies in battle, she will receive preferential treatment as a widow and will never be executed.
If Henry hadn't died in battle, she and her husband would be separated now, wouldn't it be normal to not be pregnant, and no one could embarrass her.
It turned out that Henry's brother died, and Henry was promoted to the crown prince and successfully became the king.
And although Catherine didn't give birth to a child and was not welcomed by Henry, she became the queen directly as a rocket.
body also protrudesHowever, because of the backwardness of medical treatment at that time, the twins that were conceived in the last time could not be left, and the twins were stillborn.
The play has two parallel timelines, one starts from Katherine's marriage and tells her blackening road step by step.
And the other is that Katherine has reached the pinnacle of power, strategizing and controlling everything.
Ancient and modern, all over the world, the life of women in the royal court has always been a topic of discussion.
And the play can be regarded as one side, revealing the life of this legendary woman for us.
's survival in the tug-of-war between various forces is not unremarkable.
