The rookie screenwriter borrows ancient Yujin's writing style very cleverly, The ancient harem women tried their best to educate their sons, because mothers rely on children, and one wrong move can even threaten life.
Even Kim Hye-soo's Empress in the Palace gave birth to 5 sons (also rare in Korean dramas in ancient costumes), so she can't sit back and relax, and she still has to be added to the inner volume.
The Gong Dou of Korean costume dramas has always been ridiculed in pediatrics, and North Korea has such a long history, those stories have been shot over and over again, and there is no new idea.
new screenwriters try to jump out of the original costume drama mode, the main line of the plot is more rich and diverse, in addition to the main line of the concubines in their son's education PK, there is also the open and secret struggle between the royal highness and the ministers in the palace, as well as the mother-in-law and the daughter-in-law (the queen mother and the daughter-in-law). Queen) struggle...
"City in the Sky", a father and son Cui Yuanying and Jiang Chanxi became His Highness and Prince in this drama, His Highness appeared as a debate with ministers.
There was a plague in the shanty town of Xi Village. His Highness and the ministers had different ideas. In short, His Highness hoped not to give up a single commoner, and the ministers hoped to quell the plague as soon as possible, even at the cost of sacrificing a village.
This debate not only shows the discord between the monarch and the ministers, but the hidden line is that the political views of His Highness and the ministers are not unified, and some ministers do not even take His Highness seriously.
It turns out that the queen mother played by Jin Haishu is not from the middle palace, so her highness is not a direct son. His upper position is completely run by his mother, and he relies on the power of some ministers behind it.

This lays a foreshadowing for the subsequent plot. Since the current king is not hereditary, what if the nave has 5 sons? It is still possible to go back to the old way and go to the top through the merit-based system.
I think the screenwriter is very powerful. This simple debate of not only hints at a lot of plot, but also foreshadows the plot, and there are echoes in the subsequent development of the plot.
In order to choose a reading companion for the prince, the last question to decide the outcome is the solution to the plague in Nishimura.
The answers of the three princes here not only reflect their own values, but also the interests of the factions behind them.

Dajun Cheng Fang has the same idea as his father. He grew up in the West Village since he was a child, and he has more kindness to the common people.
The only villain Huang Guiren's son, Yi Shengjun, and the ministers have the same idea, solve problems by any means, which is in line with his ruthless personality.
Bao Qianjun, whose mother's status is relatively low but has an excellent personality, belongs to the neutral faction.
Her mother, Tai Zhaorong, turned out to be a palace maid in the nave. She seems big and clueless, but she feels that she is a strong person, otherwise she will not teach such an excellent son, and the follow-up should play a key role.

Think of the current real environment, it is not difficult to see the strong personal expression of the screenwriter. Facing the unknown is the most important thing to relieve fear and ignorance. There is also a very modern expression in the
drama that the third son of the nave, Dajun Qisheng, is the setting of the transgender group.
After discovering that her son has transvestites, Jin Huixiu's performance in this section was very good, from the initial shock, sadness, and hesitation to later understanding and acceptance.
son asked her are you angry, she saidI'm not angry, I was just hesitant at first. When she changed her position and thought about standing in her son's position, as a mother, her first reaction was distress.
This episode is also very inspiring for parents, when your child is different from what you imagined, before rushing to blame him, please think about the child's position first.
A later scene under the umbrella of the mother and son is particularly touching. The mother's umbrella is slowly tilted towards the son. This is the mother's instinct to protect the child.
Jin Huixiu asked his son to hide the true side of his heart in the painting. Although that side is still unacceptable to the world, one day it will be able to show it generously...
Now, looking at this passage, it is also powerful for minority groups of.

's play is called "Umbrella", which was later officially translated as "Under the Queen's Umbrella". The idea of the play's title is very good in combination with the plot. Although there is only a square inch under the umbrella, it is the only safe place in the pouring rain.
From this, it can be seen that in the crisis-ridden palace, the only one who can protect his son's safety is the place under the umbrella of his mother.
