But didn't her son end up being an emperor in the end? Or at least someone commented that

@@jayaniee I don’t believe so; Consort Ling’s son became an emperor

@@jayaniee yup he did’

@@_xiaotin8490 no he didn’t yongyan son of consort ling became emperor

@@SupahNinjasfreak oh, I’m sorry I don’t know if he did or didn’t I just read it in another comment! ( I watched this drama years ago haha)

Ruyi love on the palace! The whole show is on yt!! Sorry if you’ve already found it lol! I love this show!!

In this case, the emperor was hurt in a hunting accident. 4th’s easy taming of the horse demonstrates that he probably had enough foresight and knowledge to send the wild horse off along a treacherous path that led to the emperor’s harm. He knew beforehand that the emperor would get hurt and possibly die; he planned it that way. High in favor and poised to inherit the throne, he would have met all of his mother’s aspirations and more.

@@TheBeastBandit So he really wanted to usurp the throne

I think that it's palace etiquette. Maids were taught to sleep a certain way. I wouldn't be surprised if consort were too.

@@clairemora7715 emperor and Princess also sleep like statues. no cuddling nothing just 2 people straight together....(I mean when with women ) but also alone .... I guess you are right about etiquette but seems super uncomfortable and lonely.

@@clairemora7715 although i noticed Ruyi sleeping on her side at least in a few episodes .

@@electroandcake6658 because she despised him towards the end of their marriage.....though I haven't seen an episode where they were happy and she still slept on her side

The actress is beautiful and since the character is Korean is is suppose to be exotic. It notice that movements are portrayed (at lest to me) like a serpent.

Her original hair without extension is on shoulder level, but she is beautiful and has Korean cute face.

Tal Ghow-I the actor is not korean why you lying

She’s really one of the most beautiful among all the harem women

@@ihavenolifeorsoul9677 I said the character is supposed to be Korean...

Not by choice. It was arranged by the emperor as a way to find the woman a husband and reward Ling Yunche. When the emperor does something for you, you smile and say thank you.

I'm not knocking the Emperor for wanting to reward Ling Yunche with a wife but he should have looked at the woman's personality instead of her coming from a good family.

It appears the emperor is the only male in the palace who can have sex. All the other men are either eunuchs or cannot approach any of the women.

@@PungiFungi yes in was this way. other men were certainly not allowed to have sex with any of the emperors women. Of course many officials had families but they lived outside the palace. And I guess guards also could have sex with prostitutes outside in the city or whatever or they wifes if they had any. But definitely not with any of the women who lived on the palace grounds.... The main reason for this to ensure children are actually emperors....They didn't have a DNA test back then.

Most of them were from distinguished families....not orphans and certainly had a great reputations or they simply wouldn't not be admitted into a palace. But yeah their life was quite shitty and they had pretty much 0 rights.... But it was struck not only for the emperor. They had not much more rights even if they lived in normal families.

@ embraced chimera. The majority of the women in the imperial harem are daughters of powerful or distinguished families. The emperor doesn't just choose women for lust but mostly for the political and military power they can bring him by forming alliances with their families. All of these women are under pressure to be favoured by the emperor and produce a male heir who will inherit the throne and thus bring greater power and prestige to their clans. Thus so much in-fighting and scheming and also why the emperor is often times reluctant to punish the women from more prominent families unless their crime is very serious and obvious. Apart from the advantages their families can bring to the emperor, these poor women only have their sexual allure as a bargaining chip. Women were rarely valued for their minds in those day and ages. And most of the men they are exposed to are eunuchs (castrated men). Every man is forbidden to touch the emperor's women for an obvious reason. As for the maids, the higher ranking ones have the protection of their mistresses so they are less likely to be molested by palace men, other than the emperor himself. Women of the palace had to go through purity tests as they must be virgins for the emperor, so it's unlikely that any with less than perfect chaste reputations will even be considered. Even the maids are forbidden to be sexually active while serving their ladies. They are usually given a chance to leave the palace to marry once they reach a certain age. Dowries were also provided for them, especially if they have pleased their owners during their time. Former palace maids are very coveted as not only do them come with decent dowries, they are also considered "well trained". Mistresses will often times set up marriages for their favoured maids. So working in the palace has its own perks, even if it was risky. Human rights, especially women's rights have come a long way since then.

Two arrows were fired. But the first one was a bow rigged in a tree to fire when the horse stepped on a rope. That one missed, causing the Emperor and the horse to fall. The second one that hit the Emperor in the leg was shot by Yongcheng, except he shot it perfectly through the bow rigged in the tree, making it look like the arrow came from the same place. Almost immediately after, Yongqi came out and shielded the Emperor from the horse, and after that, Yongcheng came out and shot the horse... but people saw Yongcheng go into the forest directly after the Emperor. So for Yongcheng to get there last to shoot the horse makes no sense. Plus, as they said, he was quiet, and didn’t announce his presence. Either they wanted to kill him, or just injure him so Yongcheng can be the “hero” and be praised that much more and secure his spot as crown prince.

@@VampireSultana ooooohhhhh ok that makes sense, the translated subtitles can be a little confusing at times 😅

@@amberthemagnificent7259 I totally get that! Lol the only reason why I know is because I saw the entire episode where the Emperor got injured. Also! On top of that! Another reason why the Emperor got super suspicious, is the behaviour Jia emitted when Yongcheng went and showed off to tame the horse they brought in. When she realized that the Emperor was asking questions about him and she decided “Oh crap, this isn’t good, I should probably get him away to stomp down any suspicion.” Her behaviour was extremely fishy.

@@VampireSultana thank you for explaining it to me, I really enjoy this drama 🤗

Thank you! I also saw the episode, and the ones before and after, but I didn't get it. I knew I wasn't catching something, but now, thanks to you, the light dawns!

The lord of her clan who she is in love with. She was never in love with emperor.

yeah it was crazy he saved him , saved Ruyi many times and the emperor just believed all the wild gossip. And whats the heck is with that punishment........send him away , fire him whatever but this was way too harsh. Probably just to torment Ruyi.

@@electroandcake6658 And that's when she broke it off with the emperor. That was the end for them

It was also symbolic for his perceived idea they had a relationship going on. It was meant to de-emasculate Ling Yunche (like, 'your no longer a strong male figure') and to attempted to lessen Ling Yunche's 'attractiveness' to Ruyi. Plus to further promote the Emperor's own Superior masculinity. Despite the fact that he did nothing really to protect Yongji really on the assassination attempt. The Emperor really cannot tolerate any male having any seeming hero stance as he believes it lessens his own.

Fourth prince had already tried to kill the emperor or at least make it look like someone was trying to kill him. The fourth prince then arrived in time to save him from a wild horse attack. Fifth Prince put himself between the horse and the emperor as a human shield. The Fourth Prince killed the horse with an arrow. At the time the emperor didn't suspect who had tried to kill him. Later when he learned that the Fourth Prince knew how to handle horses, he grew suspicious of the assassination attempt and rescue.

Yes... He is the emperor in this show

Such a handsome man.

有可能 畢竟甄嬛傳的衣服也是輪流穿 槿夕的那件從頭到尾都沒換過

對，而且明知道嘉貴妃對她那邊玉氏皇朝那麼忠心

更何況她只是一個貢女，怎麼可能

清朝的皇后只有满族跟蒙古族的

I haven't watch the drama but I guess no. I guess it was consort Jia or really the prince that arrange the fake assassination so he can appear on time like a hero to save his father.

Yeah.. it was a straight shot to kill.. seemed to aim at his heart; the arrogant Yongcheng wanted to rule so bad, and since he was favored son at the time so he can say he’s now king and China would have its first Korean empress Dowager 2, after his mother.. although Zhen Huan likely will not allow that bitch to rule and also expose Jia’s crimes. LoL..

No, he just wanted to earn the emperor’s favor and arranged the staged assassination. His intention was to showcase himself, not to kill his father

You wanna know what that father you called of his his father hated him

Yes

@sebatian but in reality he's just ordinary human

She would give him trouble later.

Is this sarcasm? Someone please say it is cause the wife was bitchy right off the bat.😞
