I love the way Ruyi told her about that scheme. She didn’t pull a “I told you so” or try and place blame, she rather calmly let her know that you schemed against me and were loyal to someone who would easily cast you away and prevent you from being happy.
@kjhjh.l jhkjl. ruyi a total women she loved her man no matter what she did not like scenes unless it was her she was scheming on her own self she wanted peace never wanted the seat she was the best person that love emperor the most it was teaching lessons she gave out never a I told you so moment
The actress who plays Ruyi is the most calm, dignified person I've ever seen on any series. Amazing, and her voice is somewhat deeper than most Chinese women, which gives her added gravitas. Also the other woman in this scene played a major part in Crouching Tiger, Hidden Dragon and still manages to look like she's in her early twenties or so.
@@Kayenne54 the actress in this show is Tong Yao, whereas the actress in crouching tiger hidden dragon is Zhang Ziyi. But you're not wrong in mistaking her, it is known that she looks like Zhang Ziyi and has been dubbed as 'little Zhang Ziyi'!
I just watched this episode. I loved that she had a smile on her face. "yeah girl you know that friend that you thought was your friend, well she's not; she's the reason why you don't have children". For a quick second I thought that it was Koi Fish pellets.
JUST FINISHED THIS SERIES AND CRIED MY EYES OUT, AND LOVED IT. WOW. THIS WAS A TRUE STORY WOW. THE ACTORS WERE BRILLIANT AND I CAN'T BELIEVE THE WAY MEN AND WOMEN WERE TREATED LIKE NOTHING IF YOU WON'T ROYAL.
For those wondering about the Basil seed thing: This is a great plot device but is slightly skewed. Basil seeds CAN lower fertility but males are more at risk than females and you'd need to eat them rather than have a bracelet full of them though I don't doubt oils from the seeds would affect you for as long as the characters are stated to wear the bracelets.
The seeds in the scene look more like radish seeds. Basil seeds are much tinier. I wonder if the plot meant that the basil seeds were grounded into powder to make those tiny round pellets? I can't seem to find basil seeds that look like that. Just curious since I'm a gardener. I can't remember if it was from this drama or another, but they put something into a consort's incense burner to cause her infertility.
It should be wrongly translated. The actual name of that ... thing in Chinese is 零陵香, which doesn't refer to basil seeds, but a herb which translates to "Lysimachia foenum-graecum Hance" in English.
@@tanhql Thank you for clearing that up! I've been curious about the seeds for a long time, so thank you for the scientific name of the plant in English. Much appreciated.
@@opheliamaplesHi the scene that you are remembering about the incense is from The legend of zhen huan. Its Consort Hua that had the incense specifically just for her use by the emperor.
Ruyi wanted the emperor to know what the empress was capable. Noble Consort tells him and it is confirmed by the empress on the empress' deathbed. What is really infuriating is later he keeps telling Ruyi how virtuous the first empress was when he knows better. Not only does he know better, so does Ruyi but she never calls him out on it! I would never want me or my family to ever be part of the court, let along the royal family. The first empress, Noble Consort, Jia and Ruyi all wanted to not be in the palace either in eternity or the next incarnation. That says it all.
The Emperor's always had this nasty habit of mistreating the people who genuinely care for him for granted, then showing remorse only after they died. He only praises the late Empress' 'virtues' because Ruyi refused to allow him to skirt his responsibilities as Emperor in favor of indulging his wants.
@@Eventidesis , Ruyi indulge the Emperor in what he needed while the other scheming consorts like Wei Yanwan indulged him in what he wanted. The Emperor seem to forget what his predecessor told him in the early episodes, even an Emperor can't do anything he wanted
The sad thing is, even if the Empress Dowager did something like this, she knows nobody dares to accuse her since she is highest of all. Thus, they feel defeated and all they can do is to go against the plans/schemes of the dowager in order to stop/annoy her.
The Empress Dowager is not that evil. She's just a very smart old lady, with slightly lower moral values .That was all Noble consort Gao and Empress Fuca's fault
@@Greyce118 Well I could imagine Dowager poisoning Hui as evil. Dowager hated Hui's father and in retrospect would do anything to make him fall from power, hence poisoning Hui.
@@Greyce118 the Dowager basically went through everything Ruyi and the other consorts went through to be where she was. She have seen it all before....been there and done that.
@@hyunsoo_zx basil seeds don't look like that. They are tiny-smaller than the size of a grain of salt-and black. Most basil comes from Europe but Thai and Holy basil come from Asia. Neither of their seeds look like what is shown.
It's not about the guy it's about status and power for these women. If they can get closer to the Emperor and become the Empress they can gained more power and glory to their family name .
@@Cantetinza17 all I know is fenugreek is said to increase milk/lactation. And since anything that increases lactation usually decreases fertility… maybe
I agree based on the shape of the seeds, i believe it was fenugreek.. however, i wonder why having the seeds around your wrist may give the effect of preventing pregnancy..
I would like to know what happened for real cause all those stories about making women infertile with basil seeds are stupid, so in reality what could have happened? was it a witch hunt to blame others for their infertility of their natural abortions?
There were a ton of Chinese superstitions back in the day, some which have persisted to modern times. While the actual science behind some of them (or lack thereof) can be quite skewed with all that we know now, not counting the constant stress of survival people had to contend with while living in the Palace which would obviously impact your health and of course your ability to conceive and raise a child, the fact that they would try things like this still illustrates the ruthlessness of the infighting. The intent is still there.

Agreed lol
Probably was some other seed so that the viewers could see them. My basil seeds for my garden are TINY. But they might be a different thing there.
@@zelousfoxtrot3390 it actualy not a basil seed but more like tonka seed, it was a mistranslation. it was a plant called Lysimachia foenum-graecum
Staying virtuous in extremely trying circumstances is a mark of a true human being.

She's also into martial.arts movies as well
Could u recommend me one?
Just saw a martial arts clip and she was in it
Which episode is this?
😂 Those not basil seeds it’s Fenugreek plant seeds l am 100.57% sure of that
so I take it that if you are trying to get pregnant to stay away from Fenugreek
