Judging from the drama "Luoshen" alone, Cao Cao, Cao Zhi, and Cao Pi's attitude towards Zhen Mi can be said to reflect the different views of the ruling class on the scholars.
Cao Cao is extremely far-sighted and good at using the scholars, but as long as there are people in the scholars who do not conform to their opinions, they will take various measures to suppress them.
Cao Zhi, romantic, literary and artistic, is full of the literary atmosphere that belongs to the scholar clan, and is essentially a scholar clan.
But the Shi clan itself is weak and powerless, and does not have military and economic power, so just as the Shi clan cannot save itself, Cao Zhi cannot combine with Zhen Mi.
Cao Pi was decisive and resourceful, ruthless, and extremely suspicious of Zhen Mi, and the last Cao Pi was called the emperor and succeeded Cao Cao as the protector of the scholars.
Therefore, TVB said that Zhen Mi was going to marry the son of the Cao family, although it is a fictional plot, it is very historical.
From the traditional perspective of feudal patriarchy and inferiority at that time, women were also a resource.
Therefore, Zhen Mi has become a resource.
Zhen Mi's beauty represents a dominant position of the Shi clan over the aesthetics of the entire society.
Zhen Mi's literary skills are also the heavy literary tradition that represents the scholars.
The power of the scholar clan represents a kind of discourse, aesthetic guidance, and the owner of culture.
Therefore, in the last years of the Eastern Han Dynasty, the princes fought in a melee, and even if you achieved a military victory, you could not establish your rule over the Central Plains, and Dong Zhuo was an example.
Only if you have the support of the scholars can you win the world.
Zhen Mi represents a recognition and support of the scholars for the current ruling class.
"Family interests" and "world interests" are a major contradiction in "Roselle".
Cao Cao, Cao Pi, Sima Yi, and Guo Huan represent "those who put family interests first".
It's not that they don't have a heart for the world, it can only be said that they are more realistic, and the history of that era stipulates that it must be the era of the family.
Xun Yu, Cao Zhi, Yang Xiu, and Zhen Mi represent the "supremacy of the interests of the world", their minds and efforts are good, but failure is doomed.
They are too weak and romantic, and in a situation where the world is divided into three parts, they must have hegemony before they can practice benevolence and righteousness.
The sentence "peach blossoms in troubled times are chasing water", coupled with the "red face and thin life" that has been rumored for thousands of years, the fate of Zhen Mi, who is known as the three beauties together with Jiangdong Xiaoqiao, has a definite number from the moment he was born.
However, in the end, the contradiction between the rulers of the Shu tribe and the ruled people of the Shi tribe is impossible to reconcile.
The rulers of the Shu clan must have feared that they would lose the support of the scholars, just as Cao Pi was extremely worried about whether Zhen Mi would have an affair with his younger brother.
However, the Sima family, which Cao Pi had always relied on, finally completed the great cause of overthrowing Cao Wei and establishing power.
Originally, after Cao Wei's continuous pursuit, the "resources" that he pursued and constantly exerted control after he got his hands on it, finally reversed himself.
When I watched "Roselle" for the first time, I felt that Zhen Mi was the perfect woman, combining all the beauty in one.
As time went by and my experience deepened, I began to think that this beautiful woman, who had spent her whole life running for others, was actually not happy at all.
Maybe under the fence, she is not allowed not to think about her family, or even the world, and even eloped, and is still hesitating because Cao Zhi can't display her talents.
Zhen Mi is actually not as brave as her sister-in-law, and she is ordinary on the surface, but she can make such a moving act as martyrdom.
Zhen Mi believes that her family needs her, and everyone in the world is indispensable to her, is there too much aura behind her, making her forget that she is also a woman who needs to be cherished.
The beauty is like this, and it seems that thousands of people are pampered in one, but they are really burdened by all kinds of constraints.
One is bound by the common people in the world, in order to avoid war between brothers, she obeys Cao Cao's arrangement to marry Cao Pi.
The second is bound by sisterhood, and she endures it again and again in the face of the treacherous Queen Guo.
The third is bound by the name of husband and wife, and Cao Zhi has a lover who can only be commensurate with his uncle and sister-in-law.
In the end, under Guo Huan's provocation and Cao Pi's distrust, a cup of poisonous wine was entered, and a generation of beauties Zhen Mi was shattered.
Only Cao Zijian, who was holding a golden jade with a pillow in his arms, muttered "Mi'er" in the vast Luoshui.
Therefore, although Zhen Mi's ending is suffocating, putting aside the difficulties of the troubled times, it is more of her own choice.
So in the end, she is truly happy when she leaves this world, and she can go to a real place, like a fairy glowing with fluorescent blue light, so pure to guard a truth and love.
What's more, she felt that her departure could bring about a truce between the two brothers, the safety of her son, and her concern did not need the symbol of her life to protect and be relieved.
What she really wants to escape is the conflict of interests between people in this world.
So the first time I watched it, I was pulling the plot, and there would be sighs, but the tragedy was all about precipitation.
When you look at it later, you will be amazed by the beauty of the ending.
In addition to the ups and downs of the plot, the ancient poems and the archetypal allusions of each event reveal the cultural heritage, which also makes people deeply feel the intention of the behind-the-scenes work of this play.
Throughout the whole "Luoshen", it not only covers the subtlety of works such as "The Classic of Mountains and Seas" and "The Book of Songs", but also includes the Jian'an style of the Wei and Jin talents.
It seems that it is really because of its profound cultural heritage that it is extraordinary, and it can be regarded as a simple reading book of Wei and Jin literature.
A sentence in the play is very classic: "Without sorrow, poetry does not work, but the price paid is too much."
Of course, history cannot be rewritten.
Cao Cao, Cao Zhi, and Zhen Mi worked hard to change the fate of the destruction of the Wei State, and if the country was broken, the family would not exist, so the tragedy of this drama was thorough, and in the end, almost no one died well.
The screenwriter may hate the villain in the play as much as we do, but in the end, he was forced by history and still did not forcibly cater to the audience's psychology.
At the end of the story, although Guo Huan was ordered by Zhen Mi's son to stuff his mouth with chaff and cover his face after death, he still spent his old age in peace, like Sima Yi and the next Cao Cao, and finally usurped Wei.
Of course, its significance is not to educate (that is, good will be rewarded with good and evil will be rewarded), but from a woman in the Three Kingdoms period, so that I can get a glimpse of the relationship between the personal fate of the Three Kingdoms era and the entire era.
The people in the play are all heroes, but they still can't get rid of the difficulties of the times, which can't help but be embarrassing.
This is an unavoidable limitation of big historical dramas.
Regarding that period of history, it was a turbulent and rapidly changing era.
And the heroic feelings in the troubled times are also envied by me.
Yang Xiu, Ding Yi and Cao Zhi's mutual acquaintance, as well as the sisterhood between Liu Xixi and Zhen Mi, this kind of pure confidant is hard to find in a lifetime.
Lin Weichen vividly interpreted Yang Xiu's intellect and noble and wild image.
There is a great strategy of "learning to become a literary and martial arts, reporting to the emperor's family", integrating wisdom and style, responding to the situation, strategizing, and strategizing.
He is also Xun Yu's most proud protégé, but his edge is too exposed, and in the end, he was killed by Cao Cao because of the "chicken ribs" that he guessed Cao Cao's thoughts, which is a pity.
Yang Xiu was smart on the surface but was mistaken by cleverness, but in fact, he died unjustly because of Cao Cao's groundless suspicion and the darkness of power politics.
He died not only of his unrestrained and unrestrained character, but also of that dark age when there was no rule of law, no human rights, no freedom, and no human dignity.
History has no ifs, history cannot be turned back, right or wrong, and will eventually follow the wind.
All pictures are from the Internet).
All the time. In the company of words, pour out a heart that has never betrayed.
I firmly believe that growth is the ultimate destination of a woman.
May you feel warmth and affection in my words.
Luoshen": The thought of thinking is destined to be a ruthless death;Nan Ke has a dream, and it is always empty to see the floating life.
Luoshen": The string has been broken, the song is difficult to complete, and her fate has become a prophecy.
Roselle": Even if they were once brothers and sisters, they all dissipated in the bright galaxy after all.
This troubled hero is self-sustaining and sober, and he is also an important core of the emotional direction of the three protagonists.
In troubled times, heroes can't protect themselves, how can the way of survival be the same as the rules in the prosperous times?
