Chinanews.com, Beijing, April 6th. Directed by Li Shaohong, Zhang Yongchen is the screenwriter, and Liu Tao and Zhou Yimin lead the Song Feng legendary drama "Da Song Gong Ci", which is now on the air.
Beginning this week, the eternal mystery of "racing cat for prince" will be reinterpreted in the play.
On the 6th, the film crew released a "family portrait" poster. Among them, Liu E and Zhao Heng were sitting on the dragon chair. Zhao Heng was sitting in danger, his eyes were deep, seemingly unspeakable; Liu E was standing by his side, his expression was cold and solemn, and the queen’s majesty was fully demonstrated. ; The little boy sitting under the dragon chair hugs the civet cat on his knees. The relationship between the "prince and the civet cat" is self-evident.

As one of the several famous mysteries in ancient Chinese history, the story of "The raccoon for the prince" is based on the Yuan drama "Jin Shui Qiao Chen Lin's Embracing Makeup Box", the Ming Dynasty novel "Bao Gong An" and the Qing Dynasty novel "Three Heroes and Five Righteousness". The interpretation of this has long been a household name.
At the end of the Qing Dynasty, it was adapted into Peking Opera, Pingju Opera, Henan Opera, Huangmei Opera and other operas to be sung. The image of Empress Liu's "wicked woman" has been determined so far, but little is known about the historical truth.
"So in this drama, we think that this matter may not be a conspiracy, but is more likely to be'Yangmou'. We did a righting of'civet cat for prince', and also gave Liu E's image a relatively reasonable treatment. Of course we The understanding is not the truth of history, but just gives an answer to this unsettled case." Director Li Shaohong interpreted.
She believes that most of history is blank, and only the most important things have been passed down. The blank part can only be hypothesized now, but if it is inferred from the motivation of the characters, "If it is really Liu E’s conspiracy, changing the prince is Is it for the position of the queen? She is already a queen. Is it possible that the emperor turned the concubine Chen into a queen because the concubine Chen had a child? It is indeed possible, which is justified, but we think that Zhao Heng does not agree to do so, but rather You have to change the prince.” For this reason, "Da Song Gong Ci" has carried out a brand-new deconstruction of the story, starting from the motivation, and presenting the choices and aspects of each character in the incident.
As a matter of fact, the mystery of "Long cats for princes" runs through the whole plot of "Da Song Gong Ci", centering on why and how to change, "Da Song Gong Ci" gradually laid out all the background from the beginning. Director Li Shaohong said that the whole drama is the retrospect and extension of this core event. It is not just as simple as Zhao Heng's favoring Liu E. "If Zhao Heng is reluctant, this thing will not be done at all, so Zhao Heng must have done it. His own thoughts. For this child, childbirth is one thing, and nurturing is more important. To be the successor of Song Jiangshan, this is not a general responsibility. Not only must the child grow up safely, but also Let him truly be able to take over when he grows up. Only Liu E can take on this important task, not the child’s biological mother Chen Fei.” (End)
