Chapter 130: Dark Haze Come on
【Western Han Dynasty Imperial City? 】
[It should be the beginning of Zhaojun's journey to the frontier. Didn't Director Jia say that before? ]
【Add one, the story marked in the VR glasses before was also about Zhaojun's departure to the frontier, but the scene at that time was not as detailed as it is now. 】
…
Netizens in the live broadcast room continued to watch the movement of the mural.
However, just when they thought that the camera in the live broadcast room would be like the previous sightseeing version of VR glasses, starting from the magnificent Western Han Dynasty Imperial City, which represented the beginning, and switching step by step to the next story scene.
People were surprised to find that at the gate of the imperial palace, a group of women were queuing up to enter the palace one by one.
That was the team that Wang Zhaojun marched into the palace as a concubine.
Although there are many people on the screen, as the camera zooms in.
As the line of beauties passed by, people could tell which one was Wang Zhaojun, one of the four great beauties, without any explanation.
Although the brushstrokes are similar, people can still feel that Wang Zhaojun is superior to others from her perfect face from every angle.
Although the concubines have not yet been selected by the emperor, entering the palace as a concubine seems to be a predestined scene in her life.
The audience marveled at the beauty and demeanor of Wang Zhaojun revealed in her every frown and smile on the mural.
However, at the same time, while people were lamenting all this, they realized another problem.
That is the mural in front of you, and it seems to be moving.
[Oh my god, the Yongan Museum will not make an animation specifically for this mural. ]
[It is possible. When I watched the VR video before, I thought that since Yongan Group could produce such a sophisticated VR video, there must be a lot of designs involving the Mogao Grottoes murals.]
[I agree. Didn’t Director Jia say this before? He said that the Yongan system was decided after repeated experiments and after conceiving the most likely image of the Mogao Grottoes murals.]
【It’s not surprising that they have animation. 】
[But how did they manage to make the murals on the wall move? The scene just now was really too realistic. Even if the current animation production technology is good enough, it is impossible to really get rid of the limitations of different dimensions. ]
[I really don't doubt the production ability of Yongan, but how did they achieve this technology that seems to bring real paintings to life? 】
The audience in the live broadcast room kept shouting in the comment section, while at the same time, the story on the mural on the other side had entered the next stage.
People were surprised to find that the mural, which was originally thought to be just a platform, actually changed from a flat surface to a three-dimensional one following Wang Zhaojun's footsteps after she entered the palace.
Everyone's eyes kept moving along the city walls on both sides.
They were surprised to find that the "animation" in front of them was not just a simple 2D graphic. From their perspective, it was as if they had really walked into the mural.
The feeling of moving forward in the imperial city formed by three-dimensional lines made all the viewers in the live broadcast room hold their breath unconsciously.
They witnessed with their own eyes that during the portrait selection process, Wang Zhaojun was dotted with a "black mole" that almost took up half of her cheek on the portrait because she did not tip the painter.
A well-placed small mole can be an ornament to a beauty, but a black mole like the one in the portrait, which almost takes up the entire left half of the cheek, will make a woman look ugly.
This made the emperor feel dizzy.
Although their talent show this year did not restrict participation to only daughters of government officials, she was sent here when she looked like this. There was basically no other possibility except for the children of government officials.
If the water is too clear, there will be no fish. As an emperor, he could understand the ministers' choice to place "spies" in the harem.
But the problem is that everything must be done in moderation.
Just like customers in Japanese restaurants always assume that the sushi chef must have just washed his hands.
Customers know very well that there is a high probability that there will be sushi chefs in Japanese restaurants who go to work without washing their hands thoroughly.
But everyone basically chose to ignore it.
Everyone can choose to believe it, but what if someone really put all this in front of everyone.
By then, it will be a big problem that no one can ignore.
Don't be too extreme in doing things, and leave some room for others. This is the normal thinking of all people in dealing with people.
The emperor was the same. He could understand the need to deliver "talents" to the harem, but he really could not tolerate the kind of indifference that was not even put on an act.
He felt that his position was high enough that he would favor anyone who was sent to him.
Or does the other person really think that his or her own aesthetic is as shown in the picture?
To be honest, if the person who sent this ugly girl to the selection did not "know the truth", he must be a lawless official.
It is really possible that the emperor would massacre his entire family.
However, in the end the emperor finally chose the most moderate approach.
While he eliminated the concubine from the selection, he did not investigate the origin of this palace maid into anyone.
The purpose was to stabilize the powerful official who selected Wang Zhaojun to enter the palace while making his attitude clear.
Emperor OS: There is no other way. There are so many people with the surname Wang. No matter they are relatives from his mother's family or his mother's family, they will be exposed if he sends people to investigate thoroughly. So he chose this kind of "tacit understanding" cover-up.
Wang Zhaojun thus accidentally became the victim of a series of butterfly effects.
She became a tool to serve others, but she did not waste her life because of this.
She was unwilling to be a slave in the palace all her life, so when the emperor did not want his daughter to get married and was looking for a replacement in the palace, Wang Zhaojun took the initiative to untie herself and accept the role of substitute marriage without a second thought.
The audience watched with their own eyes as Wang Zhaojun took down the imperial edict, and as the emperor regretfully executed the painter, she was married to the Huns as a princess with a dowry prepared by the royal family.
Her grand wedding was a political marriage, but also her desperate struggle for her own future.
Although she got married as a princess that day, no one in the palace envied her "glory".
This was because the Huns at that time not only did not have the living conditions of the imperial city, but also had many customs that were not accepted by the Han people.
For example, the Xiongnu, as a nomadic people, had the most representative custom of "levirate marriage".
Simply put, it is a marriage custom for a woman to marry her husband's brother after his death.
In a few cases, there would even be cases where a son would marry his stepmother (father's concubine).
For this reason, the mother bear could not be accepted by the women of the Central Plains at that time, whether in terms of living environment, diet or folk customs.
But Wang Zhaojun didn't care, even though it was not her original intention to become a princess married to the Huns.
But it was the best choice she made at that point in time.
Moreover, although she is a woman, she also understands the righteousness.
Although marriage for a foreign country was a measure that sacrificed a woman's future, in an era when marriages were mostly arranged by parents and matchmakers, sacrificing just one woman's marriage could save hundreds or even thousands of lives that died on the battlefield.
Wang Zhaojun felt that this was a very meaningful thing, and she was also unwilling to die in the palace as a maid.
From the imperial city to the grassland, she witnessed the tremendous changes in the surrounding environment and scenery.
She knew very well that life in the Xiongnu might not be as comfortable as in the imperial city.
Not to mention the distant frontier, just the journey from Xian'an alone was enough to make Wang Zhaojun suffer a lot.
At that moment, it was clearly just a linear three-dimensional painting, but people could still easily perceive the increasingly difficult surrounding environment from the composition and the changes in Wang Zhaojun's expression.
Although the scenery outside the Great Wall is magnificent, for someone who has lived in the city for a long time, the nomadic lifestyle is obviously not something she can easily get used to.
In this mural, the more natural the scenery outside the Great Wall is, the more it makes people feel the difficulty of carrying out the future.
Even if the Huns gave her full "favorable treatment", there was no way to make up for the gap between the two sides.
A 20-year-old girl is going to marry an old man who can be her grandfather.
But she understood that from the moment Dacong accepted the marriage order, she represented the attitude and face of the Western Han Dynasty.
She chose to stick to her decision, and at the same time, she did allow the Western Han Dynasty and the Huns to maintain peace for a long period of time.
People sang praises of her achievements and praised her for bringing a stable life to the common people.
But the suffering she endured was always overwhelmed by those lofty praises.
For example, she had only been married to the Xiongnu for two years when her husband died of illness. She thought she could easily get rid of the burden of marriage, but she was told that she had to marry her husband's eldest son according to custom.
She also tried to write letters to her country for help, hoping that she would be able to return to her homeland after her "marriage partner" died.
But what he got was just the compliment of national justice.
Let her follow the old customs of the Huns.
This was the greatest pain in her life. Just imagine what kind of sacrifice a woman had to make in that old era when people’s thoughts were closed, in order to accept this custom that even modern people cannot imagine.
And the most important thing is that this shame will never be known to the people of my hometown.
Because the royal family has always known very well that some things are shameful from the very beginning.
They sent Wang Zhaojun away because they were afraid of war, but because they did not want to offend the other side, they chose to continue sacrificing the rest of Wang Zhaojun's life.
This is an extremely shameful thing, no matter how many honors she is given.
The people of her hometown will never know. They will only know that she married the king of the Huns and became a princess respected by the Huns, but they will never know the suffering she endured.
Even in the history textbooks of later generations, her achievements will only continue to be promoted.
But this time, the animation produced by Yongan used the most shocking lines to show everyone the darkest shadow behind the seemingly glorious and righteous scene.
The Yong'an Museum did not avoid the issue, but directly showed everyone the most tragic and direct tragedy behind the so-called Donghuang history.
Administrator’s OS: Is it a little too dark for children?
