In recent years, TV dramas with the theme of palace battles have emerged in an endless stream, among which "The Legend of Zhen Huan" is the most popular, not only with high ratings, but also set off a wave of "palace fighting dramas". 
Behind the sensation of this series across the country, the key is thanks to the eight actresses with superb acting skills and super good looks. They are Feng Ruozhao, Tan Songyun, Sun Li, Mao Xiaotong, Reiza, Cai Shaofen, Jiang Xin and a mysterious and fascinating concubine. They play different palace maids in the play, some have a bumpy fate, some are in power, have different personalities, and have their own beauty, but they also make countless audiences fall in love with them. 
This article will start with their origins and beautiful faces, and analyze their experiences and fates in the court in detail in order. Let's go back to the Yongzheng period of the Qing Dynasty in the 18th century, walk into this harem of beauty and power, and experience those thrilling stories firsthand. Feng Ruozhao played Concubine Jing in "The Legend of Zhen Huan", who was originally just a well-informed daughter from a scholarly family. She has a delicate face, a gentle and introverted personality, and lives a cautious life after entering the palace. 
Unlike many cruel and arrogant heroines, she is empathetic and has the trust of many women in the harem. Although she was outstanding, she was never favored by the emperor. Therefore, she has always kept a low profile and obscurity in the palace. Until Zhen Huan entered the palace, she made an exception and became Zhen Huan's personal female official. If Concubine Jing is beautiful and unassuming, then the beauty of the noble Tan Songyun is as warm and generous as a spring breeze. She has waist-length hair, ** fair, and two dimples are very cute when she laughs. 
The character is simple and innocent, like the bright spring flowers of the palace. Even in a harem with a sinister layout, she can be at ease and keep herself like a lotus flower out of the mud without staining. The emperor has been fortunate many times and gave her the title of "Chun Guiren", but she never paid attention to this power struggle and just lived quietly. It is this simple happiness and detachment that makes people feel sorry for it, like guarding a falling flower. 
Speaking of Zhen Huan, we can't fail to mention her actor Sun Li. This is a powerful actor who is well known to countless people from screen to screen. In "The Legend of Zhen Huan", she perfectly interpreted the amazing growth process of a queen mother who transformed from an ordinary palace maid to a powerful queen mother. 
She was cute and unpretentious at first, but she hid superhuman intelligence and resilience. After going through hardships in the court**, the fire of revenge gradually ignited in her eyes, accompanied by sharp changes. Finally, after a brutal political struggle, Zhen Huan was weak and tenacious. The audience was indignant at her defeat and cheered for her victory; For her weakness, for her strength to be excited. 
It can be said that without Sun Li's excellent performance, there would be no inspirational grandeur of Zhen Huan's biography. If Sun Li's interpretation of Zhen Huan has experienced the process of soaring, then the Ying nobleman played by Mao Xiaotong is the other extreme. She was originally a civilian girl, but she was included in the palace by the emperor because of her natural beauty. 
Ying nobles have waist-length black hair, fair skin, clear eyebrows, and all kinds of styles. Her appearance was bright and moving, and she was favored by the emperor as soon as she entered the palace. However, the good times did not last long, and the queen's jealousy and calculations followed. She has an indecisive personality and cannot face the hostile environment, so she can only be slaughtered by others. Burst into tears all day long and was bullied. In the end, he ended his short but magnificent life in a palace surgery, which can be called a typical epitome of harem beauty. In stark contrast to the Ying nobles, it is the Ning nobles Reiza. She was originally the daughter of a frontier chieftain, and was selected into the harem because she looked like the emperor's favorite concubine, Concubine Hua. Ning Gui is arrogant in life, and after entering the palace, he still goes his own way and stands out from the crowd. 
She challenged the authority of the empress, despised the emperor's love, and occupied the resources due to many concubines, so she was criticized in the harem and was snubbed. However, Ning Guiren's own free and easy character, coupled with the intelligence and courage in her bones, allows her to deal with it calmly even if she falls out of favor. 
She was at odds with the emperor and repeatedly stimulated the emperor's nerves, but she was also appreciated by the emperor. Among these glamorous and moving women, the most feared is none other than Queen Cai Shaofen. She was the emperor's half-sister and entered the harem due to the need for political marriage. The queen was resourceful and resolute by nature, and helped the emperor to quell the rebellion and consolidate the country. It's just that the jealousy and ruthlessness in her character are also exposed.
The queen regarded Zhen Huan as a thorn in her side and repeatedly designed to frame her. first at the canonization ceremony, he deliberately called Zhen Huan's name wrong to humiliate her; Later, the rumors of Zhen Huan's fornication with the emperor were spread everywhere and he was put to death. Even though Zhen Huan has become the queen mother, she is still afraid that Zhen Huan will threaten her status, so she once again made a desperate bet and almost killed Zhen Huan. As the empress, Cai Shaofen's methods are vicious, and all the desperate bets in order to monopolize the emperor's love are rampant, which is breathtaking. In the whirlpool of these power struggles, there is a Concubine Hua who has always maintained her elegance and calmness, she is the famous film and television actor Jiang Xin.
is different from Queen Cai Shaofen's domineering and Lu Li, she feels very gentle and generous. Jiang Xin was born very moving, with a melon seed face and a smile like a flower. Her gentle bosom hides a sharp edge, and even if she is framed, she can easily downplay the danger and save the day. Concubine Hua is especially good at retreating, even if she is deposed and returned to the palace, she will not panic at all, and she will soon be favored by the emperor again. Finally, in a palace maid jealousy, she became pregnant and gave birth to a child, officially becoming a mother.
Concubine Hua's composure and calmness, with her demure temperament and appearance, make her an infinitely charming member of the harem even if she is no longer young. Between these beauties who are fighting openly and secretly, there will inevitably be a seemingly innocent but actually thoughtful concubine. Her origins have always been a mystery.
She has a peugeot face, and her gestures are full of bookish air and intellectuality, which makes people fall in love at first sight. However, she behaved in the harem like an ignorant young woman, and her words and actions were childish. This makes her a recognized second beauty, but it is difficult to see her true face. For a while, no one knew whether Concubine Qi was really stupid or pretending to be stupid. It is precisely because of this veil of mystery that her charm has multiplied, and she has become the emperor's favorite concubine second only to Concubine Hua.
This also seems to confirm the saying that "women who don't know the details are the most attractive". As the co-owner of so many beautiful women, the emperor is undoubtedly the happiest man here. When he evaluates the beauty of these concubines, he often hides his preferences. For example, he admired Concubine Hua's maturity and stability, and Concubine Qi's mystery and changeability; appreciating Concubine Jing's knowledge, and also pampering the simplicity and loveliness of the nobles. Of course, what fascinates him even more is the power-leaning Zhen Huan and the uninhibited Ning Guiren.
As for the queen, he only said that it was a political marriage on the surface, but he also had a bit of awe and faint jealousy in his heart. The emperor also knows the little-known weaknesses behind these beauties: Zhen Huan is indecisive, Concubine Hua is too scheming, and Concubine Qi is elusive; The queen is too strong, and Ning Guiren is too arrogant.
He often gets angry because of their fights, but in the blink of an eye, he is very lucky. These beautiful and dangerous women, like the unquenchable fire in the emperor's heart, made him give up on his desires and fascinate deeply. However, in this court splendor where beauty and cruelty coexist, there are countless untold tragedies hidden. Many linha, the most suffocating of them is the fate of the Ying nobles.
She could have lived an impassioned and high-spirited life, but she was forced to close in disgrace at the time of youth and beauty. The audience was indignant at her injustice and lamented her beauty; Her flower of life, which was about to bloom, was brutally trampled in an instant. In addition to the nobles, there are more beauties we have never met, who have disappeared into darkness in this ruthless court rivers and lakes. Their young bodies and souls are ruthlessly torn apart by this never-ending power game.
We beat them up, but we can't do anything about it. In the long river of history, beauty and blood are always inseparable, which is a true portrayal of the honor and disgrace of each dynasty. Looking at these ill-fated beauties in "The Legend of Zhen Huan", some of them are in good times and some are bad, but they are also heartbroken in this power struggle. Just like the microcosm of real society, it often takes unimaginable effort and sacrifice for women to gain recognition and status.
They are not only struggling with the torrent of external environment, but also struggling with their own weakness and suffering. However, their fate is also a reminder that we do not need to rejoice in momentary gains and losses, honors and disgraces. The road of life is far longer than the romance of the world, and I hope that we can pursue true inner peace in the magnificent waves of reality. Just like the breezy concubines and nobles, they used their own way to bloom a unique and dazzling brilliance in this palace storm. February** Dynamic Incentive Program
