"Royal Merry History" tells the story of a tragic love among the Danish royal family in the background of the late Renaissance in Western Europe. The British princess Caroline, whose fate was decided from her mother's womb, was betrothed to a Danish king Christian VII with a mental disorder. The unfortunate married life under the marriage has made Caroline yearn for beautiful changes for more than ten years. In pieces, the ordinary country doctor Stearns was caught by the king by chance and became his most trusted friend. Because of the common enlightenment thought, the doctor fell in love with the queen Caroline, which was also destined to become Stearns. The beginning of Turns's murder; the film is adapted from real history, which restores the style of Denmark during that period very well. By virtue of his own wisdom and hard-won opportunities, Turns almost realized his love for it. A country's ideal of reform, and at the same time harvested an underground romance, perhaps everything came too suddenly. Stearns, who went deep into the power hinterland, did everything he could to fight for the rights of the poor, and finally aroused the hatred of the nobles in the palace. When he was sent to the guillotine on trumped-up charges, the doctor might understand that the times can make a hero, and he can also ruthlessly strip him of all his beauty.
