Look at the face of the Emperor ! Anger , contempt . Blaming Ruyi for what ! Nevermind 😆 ! The Emperor lives a lonely life in the end . He doesn't deserve Ruyi at all .
One thing I think we can all agree on is that the Qianlong Emperor was a horrible father, he didn't do enough to protect his children from the deadly intrigues of the palace and infact he even abandoned some of them. He also set the tone for the collapse of the qing dynasty as towards the end of his reign he became delusional in his ego and allowed his government to be overran by yes men, a problem that persisted with subsequent emperors and resulted in the ultimate end of the Qing Dynasty. It seems to me that the biggest fault of his Step-Empress is that she wasn't enough of a doormat for him.
in RL even the diplomats from Joseon, as well as King Yeongjo and his grandson King Jeongjo (long story on why the Dragon Throne skipped one generation), were astonished at Qianlong's behavior towards Step Empress after her demotion: mainly how nobody (from high up down to the commoners) was willing to speak up about the matter (someone who tried to defend her at court was punished by lifetime exile through the frontier), hence why even the royal court at Joseon was in the dark about wtf happened in Hangzhou during that infamous Southern Tour; and why the Emperor left the Phoenix Throne vacant for the rest of his reign and (apart from Lady Weigiya as Imperial Noble Consort) managed the Six Palaces
@@iguava there are 3 conspiracy theories in the Korean side, mostly developed by the same diplomats at the time: 1. Qianlong's obsession with Consort Rong (which is also mentioned in the Chinese's own theories) 2. Step Empress's infidelity with a male official (in "Ruyi" the Ling Yunche arc, an adaptation of "Zhen Huan"'s arc with Imperial Prince Guo; in "Yanxi" the Prince Imperial He arc) 3. a stolen valuable pearl

Forget everyone else ...the best charcter is our girl Yuhu ! Sherlock of that century and the only one calm and with her wits about her

he's lucky ruyi didnt end up like his mom or he would have died
Zhen huan knew that she can't be sincerely to the late emperor... She even said she avoid her body to be buried with him if she dies
@@christinasuhadi lol is she Dowager Empress Cixi who can afford a separate personalized mausoleum
@@盧璘壽로인수 Well, Cixi contributed heavily to the Qing dynasty's demise. The money used for that was meant for something else
Yuhu needs her own series!
