After reading "Knowledge" for the third time, I suddenly found that the names given to the characters by the original author are very interesting, and they kind of predict fate.

Let’s talk about the name of the TV series first – do you know it, it should be Green, Fat, Red and Thin; this is from the middle sentence of Li Qingzhao’s poem “Like a Dream”:

Written by Li Qingzhao The scene of this poem is that after a sour night, the maid asked how the begonia flowers were doing, and the maid replied "still the same";

In fact, it was already the last season of spring, and after a night of wind and rain, How can Haitang be well?

Therefore, Li Qingzhao smiled and waited for her daughter carelessly, and told her that at this time, midsummer was here when the green leaves overshadowed the red flowers, and the good season for crabapples was over.

It can be seen that the original meaning of "Green Fat, Red and Thin" means "luxuriant green leaves and withered flowers." The author used this as the title of the play, which is really clever.

I don’t know if any of you onlookers have noticed that the eldest lady of the Sheng family often wears green clothes and Miss Lin often wears red makeup. Is this a coincidence?

The core of the entire drama can be said to be a correction of the concept of doting on concubines and destroying wives.

The Sheng family's "ending spring" scene ended with Lin Xiaoniang's high-profile appearance and tragic death of anger. After that, the drama moved to Gu Er's Hou Mansion.

It stands to reason that Xiao Qin is also his legitimate wife, but she is remarried, and her clothes are mostly bright and colorful; and Kang Wang, who has always been against Minglan in the second half, also likes to wear red She wears gorgeous clothes, she is obviously a real lady, and she does all the dirty things of a small family, and is not worthy of publicity.

So I make a bold guess: the author uses "Do you know, it should be green, fat, red and thin" as the title of the play. It is not a leisurely poem of joy, but to express: after the storm , everything will be corrected.

The official color of the Song Dynasty was green. The wedding clothes of Minglan and Molan were all green. Only the concubines also lived in bright colors. It can be seen that green is the orthodoxy and red is the copy.

No matter how beautiful the crabapple is, it cannot withstand the baptism of orthodoxy; therefore, green and fat, red and thin, the "red" girl will eventually give way to the "green" orthodoxy.

Looking at the character's name, it either indicates his character or his destiny.

Daughters Hualan and Rulan; Lin Xiaoniang’s son Mo Zhuang; Wei Xiaoniang’s Minglan; and Sheng Wei’s Pinlan and Shulan.

Orchid is one of the "Four Gentlemen", its qualities are: elegance, fragrance from deep valleys, and the qualities of the wise in the world.

Hua Lan: Huawei is gorgeous and bright, so Hua Lan is the eldest sister, with the brightest personality. Although not as transparent as Ming Lan, she is straightforward and has everyone's style.

Ru Lan: If it is an image, it means it has not yet been completed. Therefore, Ru Lan's character is to pursue the qualities of Lan Hua. She is straightforward and unobtrusive, and has no bad intentions. She just can't stand Mo Lan's hypocrisy. But he is also a sensible person. In the end, he will marry the person he likes, not a famous person.

Mo Lan: The ink is black and its meaning cannot be seen deeply. Therefore, Mo Lan's personality is very similar to that of her biological mother. She works hard and secretly, and likes to play some secret tricks. She thinks she is smart, but in fact, she is a low-class person who has lost tens of thousands of people and hurt herself eight hundred. Therefore, she is cold-hearted and heartless. A hint of the true nature of an orchid.

Minglan: Since she is the heroine, of course her name has its own meaning. Ming is bright and open-minded, so Minglan is also the daughter who lives the most transparent life in the play. She can protect herself, and she is also willing to stand up for her best friends and relatives. Orchid's noble and virtuous qualities are fully reflected in her!

Pinlan: Pin has a playful spirit, so Pinlan’s character is very cute. She is similar but different from Rulan; she is more free-spirited than Rulan and has the opportunity to try all kinds of fun in the mountains.

Shulan: Shulan meant well, so even though Shulan was married to a high-ranking family, she was still humiliated by a sour scholar; but she had the arrogance of an orchid, so she finally had the courage to cut off such mud with her own hands. , finally got a happy marriage, with children at knee level.

Cypress: The cypress is the most righteous species among the trees. It is cold and proud, strong and straight, and is as long as a hundred trees. All good qualities can be used on it.

That’s why everyone inside and outside the barrage calls “the second brother is the best man”! Later, the eldest lady mistakenly poisoned the old lady Sheng, and it was Changbai who came forward to personally punish his foolish mother. This was a rare quality in ancient times.

Changfeng: The maple tree is sentimental, full of romance and beauty. Therefore, Chang Feng's character is very popular with women. After his two maids were sent away, Chang Feng still chased after him to express his feelings. If he failed in a serious scientific examination, he also called on friends to relieve his worries.

Changfeng’s name indicates that he is a sentimental person, but he may sway with the wind, even though his roots are fixed. Finally, he married a daughter-in-law and had someone to support him, so he felt stable.

In addition to the above, there are also some interesting names of several important characters.

Gu Tingye: The male lead. Ting is the seniority and Ye is the name. Ye means fire, sunlight, and brilliance.

For the first half of his life, Uncle Gu has been living in the shadow of losing his mother since childhood. Later, his stepmother’s true identity was revealed and he saw the reality clearly. Like a fire, it ignited. He has absolute strength and determination. Protect Minglan and hold up a world for Minglan.

Qi Heng: The most lovable second male lead in history. Talking about the young father-in-law makes me feel a little sad. This word "weight" is his greatest sorrow: he has single-handedly supported the glory of the whole family, and he is also the biggest victim of the family. He is the one who "balances" the interests of all parties for his parents. Real chess pieces.

Let’s talk about the part where Princess Yong forced Qi Heng to sign the marriage contract with the life of the Duke of Qi. Qi Heng was a chess piece whose life was controlled by someone. He had no power to resist, and his relationship with Minglan was cut off forever. mutual affection.

But his servant didn’t do anything: Not doing anything, not doing anything, means that Qi Heng didn’t do anything. The most infuriating thing is that even if he wasn't beaten to death, Qi Heng just knelt down and begged his mother. He had no plan and could only let others take advantage of him.

There is also the name Rong Feiyan. I don’t know if the author intends to remind the audience of the beloved concubine Zhao Feiyan.

Although Zhao Feiyan was favored in history, his end was very bad. He enjoyed great wealth and finally ended up committing suicide. In the play, Rong Feiyan’s sister was the favorite concubine of the current emperor and a noble girl. In the end, King Yong ordered someone to destroy his reputation, and he committed suicide because of the humiliation.

It’s quite interesting to look at the details in Zhifushi.

For example, Mrs. Wang’s name, "Ruofu", means that she has no sense of existence; Lin Sushuang, frost cold people's hearts, Miss Lin has never treated anyone sincerely, even her own daughter, I was also taught wrongly by her.

Rulan’s female envoy is called Magpie, which indicates Rulan’s good fate; when Magpie was beaten, Rulan was a hundred times stronger than the young master, and jumped directly to save the loyal servant.

Although TV dramas are entertainment, they also have a lot of meaning in life. You can savor more of the interesting things, and they may also have a winding and secluded artistic conception.
