Talk about the politics and women of Yue State

Watching this drama, the first time I felt particularly shocked was that in order for Gou Jian to become the king, Futong actually asked Hei Yi to kill Mrs. Tang Li’s son, and this young master was Futong's nephew.

When I saw this, I was not only shocked, but also heavy. It was pressing in my heart and I couldn't let it out. I only felt the circles around my eyes burning.

After seeing such a scene, when Gou Jian's son and Ling Gufu's son were killed later, it became easier to accept it. Although I also felt that politics was cruel, the people who killed them were not their relatives after all.

As for Tang Li later, she tried every means to kill Gou Jian, which is really easy to understand.

The so-called family affection seems to be of no importance in the face of politics.

As for love, it seems even cheaper.

For example, Fan Li and Xi Shi.

In order to hibernate smoothly, Gou Jian believed that it was a woman's kindness for Yayu to let Xi Shi escape. He has endured such incredible suffering, and of course a Xi Tzu cannot stop him. But what about Mr. Fan?

He also ranked love behind politics. Of course, politics in his heart may be another form of filial piety, because his mother wants him to serve as an official and to be consistent.

When I read Journey to the West, the most emotional moment was when Tang Sanzang turned his back and said to his daughter, the king, if there was an afterlife. . .

Looking at the story now, I feel disgusted with what Fan Li did to Xi Shi.

I think this may be a comparison of Fu Chai and Xi Shi.

Judging from the character design of the TV series, Fu Chai should be the leading villain, but to be honest, after watching it, I feel that he is the real man in this drama. All the iron-blooded tenderness was taken up by him.

The TV series adopts a drama-style interpretation, and the light and dark processing is very detailed. Gou Jian's left eye is often domineering and gloomy, while his right eye is usually invisible and dark, just like Fu Chai can't guess him.

It is also worth mentioning the feudal subordination psychology of women in the play. For example, Yayu, the daughter of Xishi and Shimai.

The smart woman is Mrs. Yayu. When Gou Jian was in trouble, she was calm and calm and bore the brunt of it, even at the expense of herself.

When her husband got out of his misery and realized his dream, he chose to commit suicide.

Why did you make such a choice?

Perhaps it has something to do with being humiliated in Wu. This can be seen from her refusal to take over the general's sword after returning to the country.

Of course, her choice to commit suicide may also be related to the murder of her son.

No matter what, her heart was painful after returning to China, and for her, it was endless pain.

It can be said that in such a society, women are accessories to men and politics. The worst thing is that they are not aware of this.
