I am the queen of instant noodles. I believe everyone has watched a lot of palace fighting dramas. The ladies in the harem are all robbing the emperor with their lives.
There are not a few people who even accidentally robbed the emperor to death
In this movie "The Favourite", everyone is no longer the emperor, but the queen. Facts have proved that regardless of gender, as long as there is a throne in the family, everyone will grab it.
The background of the film is that when Queen Anne of England was on the throne, Kangxi was fifty years old.
At this time, Queen Anne had already won the armada of Spain, and had moved from a ruined settlement in Europe to an empire on which the sun never sets.
Originally, it was impossible for Queen Anne to ascend the throne. The succession to the throne in Europe is not the canonization of the crown prince, but an order for everyone. The first-order heir, the second-order heir, the third-order heir, the queen is very far behind, and unless her brothers are all dead, she will not be able to take the throne. But no one thought that the Queen's brother would really die.
But the queen also has an older sister, who came back with her husband to grab the throne. Because my sister's husband is in power in the Netherlands, the British are reluctant to make peace with the Netherlands. So I made an agreement with my sister that my sister's children could not inherit the British throne. In this way, Anne became the sole heir. After the death of her sister and brother-in-law, Anne succeeded to the throne. This is the queen of our film.
The heroine, Abigail, is like Sister Wei, a social person who doesn't talk much.
She was born in an aristocratic British family, but her family was in a downturn. Her father owed money to the Russians and took Abigail to top the debt. Abigail had to run to her cousin Sarah
Sarah is the queen's best friend and holds a high position. Won the Queen's trust.
Abigail arrives at the palace with a glimmer of hope
Sarah didn't like this poor relative at all, so she casually arranged a job as a handyman. The noble lady entered the palace as a handyman and lived like an animal. capital letter miserable
sleep with other chores at night
The worst part was that the handymen pushed the newcomer out and asked her to brush the floor, but they didn't tell her that there was alkaline water in the bucket and burned her hands.
If it hadn't burned her hand, Abigail would have Sister Wei possessed in minutes.
When Abigail wrapped her hands with gauze, the queen also used gauze. The supervisor sent her to deliver. Abigail found out that the Queen had gout, diabetes, and ulcers on her feet that never got better.
The old western medicine treatment method is to put a piece of beef on it
Abigail noticed these details of the queen, and ran outside the palace the next day to get some herbs.
It seems that both Chinese and foreign palace fights are the same, and medical skills must be mastered. Just competing for the queen's favor can save the abortion project. Abigail prepared the herbal medicine and lied to the doorman that it was sent by the doctor, and the doorman let her in to apply the medicine
As soon as the medicine was applied, Sarah discovered that she practiced medicine without a license, and immediately rewarded her with six whips.
When Sarah and the ministers gathered around the queen's bed, discussing the war. The queen suddenly said that the ulcers on her feet were much better.
Sarah pardoned Abigail, recognized her as a relative, and relieved her of her chores. Promoted her to be her own maid, specializing in herbal medicine for the queen, and gave her a separate room.
Abigail climbed out of the bottom of the palace and started her career in palace fighting. At first she took the traditional route. Serve the queen well, and then hook up with a male noble.
But later, Abigail opened up a new idea of Gongdou, and she accidentally discovered that the relationship between Sarah and the Queen was not that simple.
Only then did Abigail understand that the Queen's harem also has a chance to ascend.
Sarah has been a strong royal sister since she was a child, while the queen is just a cowardly little public servant who is often bullied. Until one day, Sarah fell from the sky to save the queen.
After the queen ascended the throne, she was in poor health. Sarah managed the court and the country for her, and she was still very strong. The queen's makeup was not good-looking, so Sarah scolded her directly and told her to go back to her room. Sarah then went to the envoy on her behalf.
Sara was more powerful politically, when France dominated Europe and attracted the whole of Europe to unite to hammer France.
The queen didn't want to fight, but Sarah was a tough main battle faction, she defied all opinions and forced the queen to fight. He also sent her husband to the battlefield and asked him to lead the British people across the sea to hammer France.
Chinese palace fights send their daughters to the palace, while foreign palace fights send their husbands to the battlefield. Okay, I can't bear to have a child without a wolf. Sarah has become the actual controller of the United Kingdom. She is busy with government affairs every day and has no time to accompany the Queen, which makes the Queen a little emotional.
Sara had no choice but to promise to come to accompany her in the afternoon, but in the afternoon, the parliamentary quarrel dragged Sara back. Sarah could only ask Abigail to go. This is equivalent to giving Abigail a chance at the top. In general palace fighting dramas, the heroine's competition for favor is comparable to a beauty contest. When a word disagrees, he sings, dances, recites poems and composes fu. Do everything possible to attract the emperor's attention. In short, it is more beautiful than you, smarter than you, and more talented than you. Even more than your white lotus.
But what the queen needs is not these, what she needs is company and care. So when she saw that it was not Sarah, she immediately drove her away.
Abigail usually observes the Queen and Sarah and knows very well what the Queen wants. Immediately go up and take the initiative to praise the cute rabbit raised by the queen.
These rabbits mean a lot to the Queen, who gave birth to 17 children, all of whom died. So she raised 17 rabbits in memory of her children. Sarah disdains these rabbits, and the queen can only keep them alone. Abigail grasped this key, got close to the queen, and quickly won the queen's favor.
The queen is old and not in good health. Often struck by Sarah's spirit. So the queen was depressed and unconfident, and Abigail coaxed her with nice words.
The queen is inconvenient to move and can't dance. Sarah never ignores her. Every dance party only cares about herself dancing happily.
The Queen was left out in the cold, and she couldn't quarrel with Sarah, so she only lost her temper.
In order to make the queen happy, Abigail took her to dance.
Sarah sensed Abigail's ambitions and warned Abigail.
But Abigail didn't show any weakness and the two declared war on this.
Sarah went to the Queen to prevent her from summoning Abigail
In order to fight back, Abigail secretly taxed Sala. told the opposition in parliament.
When the Queen announced the tax increase according to Sarah's plan, she was besieged by the opposition. The queen was speechless and could only pretend to faint.
Abigail secretly climbed onto the Queen's bed while the parliament was in full swing.
Although the queen drove her away, she quietly brought her back at night. Sarah saw Abigail on the bed when she came to the Queen.
Sarah couldn't take it any longer and asked Abigail to go back to the chores. Abigail ran to the Queen's door, slapped blood on her forehead, and framed Sarah.
In the end, the queen not only did not let Abigail go, but also began to rebel against Sarah.
Sara knew that she couldn't use her power anymore. She used to be like her own scumbag wife, and she was open-mouthed and ignored. Now Sarah has left the government behind and runs to the Queen to coax her back. After all, Sarah and the Queen are childhood sweethearts, and the Queen still has a deeper relationship with her. She easily pushed Abigail aside.
The Queen was actually very happy, Sarah had always been impatient with her, and now Sarah finally took care of her.
Abigail understands that the queen is nostalgic, and the sky can't reach the green plum, so she resorts to poisoning, the second skill required for palace fighting. She drugged Sarah's tea.
Sara drank tea, and when she rode out, the drug took effect, she fell directly, and was dragged by the horse to nowhere.
While Sarah was not in Abigail to win over the opposition, she arranged a marriage for herself. This is the characteristic of European palace fighting. In China, there are multiple wives and concubines, and whoever the emperor likes can be canonized as a concubine. Famous, status and support
But Europe is monogamous. Except for the queen, no one else is organized and has no status or security.
No nobleman is willing to let his daughter be a mistress who is not weaved, but the people at the bottom are willing, but the people at the bottom are uneducated... Therefore, some European kings thought of a very unique way: let other nobles marry their mistresses, so that The mistress has a prestigious position, which is basically equivalent to the noble giving up the wife's place to the king.
Abigail took this route, marrying a noble, and you can get the title and property of the noble. Even if he is driven out by the queen, there is still a way back. Don't end up on the street. She helped the Opposition to persuade the Queen to truce. The opposition then helped her arrange the marriage. The Queen was delighted when she learned that someone was going to marry Abigail. Immediately send money to send a room, arrange a wedding.
On the wedding night, however, Abigail's mind was full of how Sarah would fight back.
The queen couldn't see Sarah, thinking that Sarah was angry with herself, so she didn't go to her. But it didn't take long for her to be relieved to send someone to look for her. In fact, Sarah was dragged by the horse and fell into the brothel. The brothel healed her and asked her to work and pay back. Sarah asked her to call the Speaker of the Parliament and paid her the money before returning to the palace.
When Sarah went back, she found that Abigail had been overnight. Married to become a nobleman, and also intervened in government affairs, and finally couldn't help it.
Compare with Mrs. Wei
Abigail didn't fight back, but the king's contempt
Sarah returned to the Queen, who was startled. Sarah asks the Queen to send Abigail away, but the Queen does not agree. Sarah asks the overlord to force the bow
Sarah came to the Queen the next day, threatening to expose the Queen's love letter to her. Force the Queen to increase taxes, continue to hammer France, and drive away Abigail.
Historically, this trick has not worked for queens. Because of her sister, Queen Mary II of England. I wrote love letters to my little sister and called my husband. The British people have long been surprised.
In fact, Sarah didn't intend to really make it public, she burned the letters. But because of this, the queen broke with her. kick her out of the palace. Before leaving, Sara had to fight the queen strongly.
Sarah's downfall caused a shock in Britain. The Queen's ousted Whig Speaker. He was Sarah's ally, and the one he went to the brothel to redeem. The Queen appointed the Tory leader as Speaker, the tax hike was scrapped and the war ended. Sarah lost completely, and the Queen silently watched Sarah leave.
Abigail takes over the palace, unlike Sarah, who is ambitious and loves to have fun. But she also snubbed the queen.
The deposed Speaker wanted Sarah to come back, so she persuaded Sarah to write a letter to the queen. Then he persuaded the queen to accept Sarah's letter. The queen awkwardly agreed.
So Sarah buried herself in writing letters at home, but the first sentence at the beginning was still against the Queen: You bitch
Anyway, she felt that she was still so strong, so she wrote and tore it at home. The Queen waited for Sarah's letter in the palace and asked Abigail every day. This alerted Abigail. She blows pillow wind to the queen, saying that Sarah is corrupt. But the queen didn't believe it. There was only one last option left for Abigail, and she strictly guarded the correspondence. When Sarah finally wrote the letter, it was sent. Abigail threw it directly into the stove. The Queen waited for a long time, but did not get Sarah's letter. Thought Sarah didn't write it. Angered, she believed Sarah's corruption and expelled Sarah's family from the UK.
Without Sarah's threat, Abigail is more reckless than Sarah. Even stepped on the queen's rabbit. Sarah was right, Abigail was just coaxing the queen.
All the queen wanted was company, but she held the royal power in her hand. Sarah is ambitious, and Abigail has other plans. The queen suffered a stroke, and her health became worse and more depressed. The former sweetheart has become a grudge. Those who sit on the throne, male or female. To die alone in the end.
By the way, Sarah's husband's surname is Churchill, and her descendants are not only Prime Minister Churchill and Princess Diana.
Maybe the women of Churchill's family are destined to have constant cuts with the Queen of England.
