In the past two weeks, almost everyone around me has been watching \”Story of Yanxi Palace\” and talking about Wei Yingluo\’s character. Even Mr. Chen, who usually scorns palace dramas, is waiting for updates every day and can\’t help himself. I can\’t beat my curiosity. I took the opportunity to take a day off last Friday and watched two episodes while lying in bed. As a result, I couldn\’t put it down… While watching, I was thinking about the character of Wei Yingluo. What attracts us? When I watched episode 28, I suddenly found the answer. \”Haven\’t you always wanted to know why I prefer Wei Yingluo so much? I\’ll tell you the reason today.\” – I read this passage the queen said to the emperor over and over again three times. The queen said that she had always wanted to live like Yingluo. Because no matter what the situation, Wei Yingluo insists on being herself, she insists on fighting against the dogma that restricts women\’s freedom, and she does not change herself for anyone. But the queen is exactly the opposite of Yingluo. As a queen, she said, \”I am the mother of a country first, and myself second.\” From the scenes in later episodes recalling the queen\’s girlhood, we can see that before marrying Hongli, she was also a lover. A lively girl who loves to play, make fun and laugh. She is not a lady who only writes calligraphy and paintings quietly, she is a person with great thoughts of her own. But after marrying Hongli, she must put away all her sharp edges. She must be tolerant, dignified, and docile. She must take her husband\’s will as her own. Even speaking, he can\’t say more than his husband. \”Since the day I married you, I am no longer Fucha Rongyin. My whole body has been tightly wrapped. Every step I take must be perfect and impeccable.\” The queen explained these words. It shows the melancholy and restraint that she had from the very beginning. She speaks softly, she is careful in front of her husband, and she is polite and smiling in every situation. She cannot be willful, coquettish, or have her own will. Not only the queen, but everyone in the entire Forbidden City is like this. All the people around the emperor did not dare to reveal their thoughts easily, did not dare to tell the truth, did not dare to listen, did not dare to look, did not dare to ask. They all wore a mask outside themselves at all times. The only difference was that there was Some people wear wolf\’s clothing, and some people wear sheep\’s clothing. \”It\’s because I didn\’t hold on that I became what I am today.\” The queen\’s words confused the emperor, \”I seem to have never known the queen.\” In fact, it was not that the emperor had never known the queen, but that the queen had never known him. Showing his true self to the emperor, the emperor never had the time and energy to get into the queen\’s heart. The queen placed too many so-called responsibilities on herself. The main reason for her desolate fate was not weakness, but that she always put others first and herself last. The Queen has always been in a contradictory self-struggle. When she lost two children one after another, she could no longer allow herself to maintain the dignified, virtuous, and tolerant false self, nor could she return to her carefree true self, so she had no choice but to choose to be reborn. But Wei Yingluo is the complete opposite. She dares to love, hate, take responsibility, knows how to protect herself, and knows what she wants, but sheIt\’s not entirely selfish. Everything she does seems to be fighting for herself, but in fact she is declaring freedom and equality for others. Whether she chooses to enter the palace, forget Fu Heng, or commit herself to the emperor, the reason for every step is not because of herself. It\’s just that she was candid in every choice she made. The good and the good are magnanimous, and the bad and the bad are magnanimous. Just like her adopted brother said to her: there is no cold heart under a cold appearance. After watching the first 42 episodes, she only shed tears for three people. One is her sister, one is Fu Heng, and the other is the queen. I have been thinking about who among these three people is the most important to Wei Yingluo. I never had an answer until I watched episode 28 when the queen said: For me, Wei Yingluo is hope, because I can see my past self in Wei Yingluo. At that moment, I suddenly understood what the Queen and Fu Heng meant to Wei Yingluo. From the Queen, Wei Yingluo saw her memories of her sister and her imagination of her mother; in Fu Heng, Wei Yingluo found the love and trust she had never received from her father. But neither of these two people could stay with him in the end. From the day she was born, Wei Yingluo has been accustomed to loneliness, or living alone in this world. Her childhood lacked fatherly and motherly love, so she didn\’t live like an ordinary girl. She would never ask for love from others. She didn\’t have that habit. Her habit is to survive strongly in a ruthless world, and her first priority is to be herself and not be controlled by others. Her heart was not naturally strong, but the pain forced her to strengthen herself. This strong vitality is what attracts everyone to love her. The emperor, who is more than ten thousand people, loves her true temperament, because the emperor himself does not dare to reveal her true temperament. Fu Heng, who is admired by everyone, loves her authenticity because the women around her are either hypocritical or dare not be true; because he himself does not dare to fight for himself. Yuan Chunwang, despised by everyone, truly loves her because his own heart is broken and needs someone with a similar fate to make it whole. From the queen mother to the slave, there is no one who does not love and hate Wei Yingluo. What these people love and hate about her are the same, and that is that Wei Yingluo lives a life that these people dare not live. She will not feel inferior to her ignorance, will not compromise her destiny, and will not complain about her current situation. She is always doing her best to \”survive\”, and in this process, she only looks forward and never complains. Not to mention regret. The queen once said to her: When your heart is strong enough and you are no longer controlled by others, you can be yourself. Everyone thinks that what should be done first, and then what should be done. But Wei Yingluo never had these big principles in her mind. She changed the order of the queen\’s words and lived according to her own way of life. What about the ending? The end result is that people who understand many great principles \”die\” on the way. People who don\’t understand the truth live to the end and live as they did when she was first born. All her life she was just Wei Yingluo, not Fu Heng\’s lover, not the queen\’s maid, not the emperor\’s concubine, not the woman who gave birth to a dragon heir. She is herself.
