Why did I choose to watch "The Legend of Chu Qiao"?

Why would I, who don’t follow dramas, choose to watch "The Legend of Chu Qiao"?

A large part of the reason is because the protagonist is Zhao Liying.

1. Acting skills.

I highly recognize Zhao Liying's acting skills. Although she is famous for "Legend of Lu Zhen" (I happened to have never watched that TV series), I really like her from "A Thousand Bones of Flowers" and "The Legend of Lu Zhen". Rouge" time.

Let’s talk about "A Thousand Bones of Flowers" first. The scenes, styles, costumes and special effects are all very beautiful. Ying Bao’s acting skills in the drama also live up to expectations. For those who only rely on their looks, As far as the drama "Hua Vase Brain" is concerned, I began to be impressed by her acting skills and slowly became a fan.

Let’s talk about the TV series "Rouge". Ying Bao plays a decent role here. He is very smart, loves to eat and have fun, but he should be serious as he should be. Being able to complete the task in the end will not let you down. I feel blessed by the aura of the protagonist.

Looking back at the main topic, the "Chu Qiao Biography" we are talking about has a delicate appearance from the fighting in the hunting ground at the beginning to the various things in the wealthy Yuwen Mansion. Every time I face the death of a relative or friend, I express sadness, pain and anger, but the method of expression is different every time. When Curly Maotou died, he was shocked and filled with hatred. When he was about to die, he cried heartbreakingly. When his eldest sister, Xiangzhi, died, he was calm and comforted his sister Mei, and then silently took on the responsibility of her sister. Through the death of three people around him, Chu Qiao understands that to live, you must become stronger. Only by becoming stronger can you keep the people you care about alive. If you don't know what acting is, you can really take a good look at Ying Bao's performance in these three scenes.

2. Plot.

"The Legend of Chu Qiao" tells the story of a female slave who became a queen. It is different from previous plots such as palace fights and house fights, but a story that allows a girl to fight like a man. In the end, Chu Qiao has won the respect of men in the patriarchal world with her own efforts and abilities.

At that time, the gender gap between men and women was as big as it is now. Women today are still a vulnerable group in society, but they can take it for granted and enjoy special treatment unique to women. But at that time, women did not even have basic respect. There is no respect from the public. For example, the old man from Ji Le Pavilion killed dozens of maids in one night and would not be condemned by public opinion at all.

And when the heroine is surrounded by wolves, she is weak. If we think about it with our current thinking, we will think that men at that time would not show mercy to her, and subconsciously hope that a man can become a hero. In fact, no matter when it comes to saving the United States, if it is just a little help, we may not be stingy, but if it is a matter of life or death or a possible injury, we may not necessarily help you. Not to mention that in ancient times, men were superior to women.

This storyline actually tells us that only if you are worthy of respect can you gain the respect of others. You always rely on others to survive, and you can only make your way through yourself. The reason why this TV series passed the review despite such bloody and disgusting scenes may be because the energy conveyed by the whole story is very positive.

So far, the first few episodes are pretty good. Based on the acting and plot, I think "The Legend of Chu Qiao" is still worth watching. What do you think?
