A COPYCAT STORY OF HOW A WOMAN CLIMB UP TO BE EMPRESS USING A STUPID MAN.

THIS SHOW IS SAYING THE FATHER IS THE MOST STUPID THAN HIS SONS, BY NOT PREPARING FOR CHENG YI TO BE THE HEIR IF HE WANTED HIM TO BE. HE ALSO GOT MANY GENERALS WHY HE CANNOT PROTECT CHENG XU WHEN HE DIED.

LAN MING YU IS A WOMAN WHO READ BOOKS ON STRATEGY AND PLANS N PLOTS TO WIN FOR HERSELF N HER SON, WHO IS HER EVERYTHING. SINCE SHE ALWAYS WINS THE EMPEROR IN CHESS WHY SHE CANNOT WIN HIM ON HIS PLOT. SHE PLANNED TO MAKE CHENG XU BE HER LACKEY ALL ALONG SHE DON'T INTEND TO LET HIM BE REGENT FOREVER. FROM EPS 47 HER ATTITUDE CHANGED. SHE WON'T GIVE HIM EVEN A LITTLE BIT OF POWER. WHEN SHE IS POISONED HE CAN DON'T HELP HER TELLS CHENG RUI TO GO BACK TO SAVE BOTH THE SISTERS. SHE IS THE ONE WHO SHD DIED EARLIER. SHE KEEPS CONTROLLING HIM BY GIVING HIM CRUMBS AND ASKING HIM TO SACRIFICE EVERYTHING FOR HER. WHAT SHE CARES FOR IS HER SON N THE KINGDOM. IN THE END, SHE GOT HER EMPRESS SEAT BUT SHE IS ALONE, WONDERING IF SHE IS HAPPY. WITHOUT ANYBODY TO HELP THEM, SOONER OR LATER THE KINGDOM ALSO WON'T LAST LONG.

CHENG XU IS STUBBORN CONTINUES LOVING MING YU EVEN IF HE IS NOT WELL TREATED BY HER, BEING BETRAYED AND USED BY THE ONE HE LOVED THE MOST. HE IS ALSO BETRAYED BY HIS WIFE WHO TELLS MING YU WHAT HE IS PLANNING TO DO. IN THE END, HE STILL WON'T GET WHAT HE WANTS. A SMART MAN WON'T BE SO STUPID TO TAKE ANOTHER MAN SON AS A SON EVEN IF HE LOVED THE WOMAN N LET THE SON TURNED AGAINST HIM. HE LIVED UNTIL EPS 47 STILL DON'T ACCEPT THE REALITY THAT HE WON'T GET HER. HE IS WILLING TO GIVE UP EVERYTHING FOR HER BUT SHE WON'T AGREE TO LEAVE WITH HER EVEN IF HE DIED. SO STUPID TO BELIEVE HER LIES. HIS IDEA TO LEAVE WITH HER IS ALSO STUPID, IT WON'T HAPPEN AS HE WISHED. HE ONLY HAS ONE-SIDED WISH N THINKING. HE SHD GAVE UP N LIVED HIS OWN LIFE NOT HELPING HER OR ANYONE. BUT HE NEVER LEARNT HIS LESSON. HE CARED TOO MUCH FOR MING YU WHO DON'T EVEN CARE IF HE DIED.

SINCE CHENG XU GAVE UP THE THRONE TO MING YU'S SON THAT DAY HE HAS ALREADY LOST TO HER, THINKING HE STILL CAN BE TOGETHER WITH HER N THE SON IS STUPID. SHE IS ONLY USING HIM TO STRENGTHEN HER SON POSITION UNTIL HE GROWS UP AND TAKES BACK THE THRONE. HE IS STUPID TO BELIEVE THAT HE CAN CONTROL HER OR ANYTHING. IF HE WANTS TO TAKE CONTROL HE SHOULD DO IT BEFORE THE SON GROWS UP INSTEAD OF WAITING UNTIL HE GROWS UP. HE GOT NO BRAINS AT ALL AS A GENERAL TO KEEP BELIEVING IN A WOMAN WHO DONT LOVED HIM AS MUCH AS HE LOVED HER. HE TREATS HER LIKE QUEEN BUT SHE ONLY TREATS HIM LIKE DOG SHIT. WHO WANTS THIS KIND OF WOMAN. SO STUPID OF HIM. HE NEVER THINKS FOR HIMSELF.

HE SHD NOT AGREE TO BE THE REGENT WITHOUT CONDITIONS AND ASK FOR SOMETHING IN RETURN. IF SHE LOVES HIM SHE WOULD GIVE HIM AT LEAST HALF THE KINGDOM FOR HIS OWN RULE. NO NEED TO BE HER REGENT. JUST DIVIDE THE LAND OR WHATEVER. NO NEED TO FIGHT. SHE IS JUST A SELFISH N GREEDY WOMAN PRETENDING TO BE GOOD.

IN THE END, ALSO DIED NEVER GET ANYTHING. FIGHT FOR WHOSE BENEFIT. STUPID N USELESS. AS MY TITLE SAYS MOST SCENES ARE COPYCATS FROM PAST STORIES.

JUST MY 2CENTS. ALTHOUGH ANYBODY CAN HAVE A DIFFERENT OPINION OF THIS SHOW, YOU CAN SAY ALL SHE DOES IS FOR THE PEACE OF THE LAND, BUT I WANTED TO HAVE ANOTHER OPINION
NO FLAMING PLS.

CONCLUSION
ECCLESIASTES 1 :1-18

Ecclesiastes 1:1-18
[1]These are the words of the Philosopher, David's son, who was king in Jerusalem.
[2]It is useless, useless, said the Philosopher. Life is useless, all useless.
[3]You spend your life working, labouring, and what do you have to show for it?
[4]Generations come and generations go, but the world stays just the same.
[5]The sun still rises, and it still goes down, going wearily back to where it must start all over again.
[6]The wind blows south, the wind blows north — round and round and back again.
[7]Every river flows into the sea, but the sea is not yet full. The water returns to where the rivers began, and starts all over again.
[8]Everything leads to weariness — a weariness too great for words. Our eyes can never see enough to be satisfied; our ears can never hear enough.
[9]What has happened before will happen again. What has been done before will be done again. There is nothing new in the whole world.
[10]“Look,” they say, “here is something new!” But no, it has all happened before, long before we were born.
[11]No one remembers what has happened in the past, and no one in days to come will remember what happens between now and then.
[12]I, the Philosopher, have been king over Israel in Jerusalem.
[13]I determined that I would examine and study all the things that are done in this world.God has laid a miserable fate upon us.
[14]I have seen everything done in this world, and I tell you, it is all useless. It is like chasing the wind.
[15]You can't straighten out what is crooked; you can't count things that aren't there.
[16]I told myself, “I have become a great man, far wiser than anyone who ruled Jerusalem before me. I know what wisdom and knowledge really are.”
[17]I was determined to learn the difference between knowledge and foolishness, wisdom and madness. But I found out that I might as well be chasing the wind.
[18]The wiser you are, the more worries you have; the more you know, the more it hurts.
