Yongzheng's death is perfect because Zhenhuan and Lanyi would have never been able to kill him if it hadn't been for his arrogant confidence in his control over his consorts and lack of respect for their agency.
1. Yongzheng is a highly intelligent and paranoid man who survived an infamous battle for the throne and spent his life obsessively pruning his inner circle for any traitors.
2. Yongzheng has watched his consorts murder royals and get away with it. He knows what they're capable of. He just didn't think they'd turn the very same tactics on him.
3. Before they started collabing to murder him, both Zhenhuan and Lanyi had made it abundantly clear that they hated him. Zhenhuan despised him after Yunli's death and initially made no effort to hide it, Lanyi consistently acted proud and apathetic towards Yongzheng's interest towards her for her whole existence in his harem.
4. Lanyi's sudden change of attitude towards him should have raised especially giant red flags if Yongzheng didn't assume that she had just accepted her fate as being his consort forever.
I finished Road to Empress I just now and I cried all throughout the part with Gaoyang and Bianji
after watching Zhen Huan, Ruyi and Yanxi I get Ruyi's exhaustion on such a fundamental level because what the fuck is the point of protecting yourself from schemers and accusers? As soon as one of them loses influence/dies another crops up again. The emperor is guilt tripped into having basic trust in you for a blissful 1 month before he's back to his usual bullshit. Rinse and repeat until the dude kicks the bucket or get killed by one of you. You desperately wrangle you or your ally's kid onto the throne to make sure the new emperor isn't someone out to make your life hell as a result of generational grudges. You then watch the new emperor become a piece of shit reminiscent of your toxic husband as every human weakness gets exacerbated into a moral failing by his environment. You spend the rest of your days trapped in the forbidden city surveying the dozens of new gen harem women with a watchful eye while your relationship with your children potentially falls apart around you. you die of old age in a harem that's by this time became a train wreck, half a dozen grandkids prematurely in the grave, man on the throne completely unrecognisable to you

An Lingrong moodboard
There's a rather "blink and you'll miss it" parallel made within An Lingrong's character arc that I've always wound up liking.
All the way back toward the start of the show, when Lingrong is still friends with both Zhen Huan and Meizhuang, she enters the Cold Palace to prove herself able to be of use when Yu refuses to commit suicide as ordered without seeing the emperor one last time and plead her case.
Ultimately, Yu winds up doomed not only for her loss of status, but also from how the palace eunuchs, tired of her continual disrespect, have no interest in extending kindness to her either.
Then, much later on in the show, a now very different Lingrong winds up speaking with Su Peisheng on the cusp of her own downfall and...
It's as if, now higher in status, she's forgotten the tools she used when she had less and just how efficient they can be. (Although, to be fair, I think another factor is how, at this point, Lingrong knows she's approaching the end and so no longer cares to censor her words.)
Something so sad about the Zhen Huan, Yunli and Huanbi dynamic is that obviously Zhen Huan's twins can't know that Yunli is their father, but neither the twins nor Longyue can know that Huanbi is their maternal aunt. There's several moments when Huanbi is looking at Longyue with clear adoration on her face, and Longyue isn't looking at her at all... :(
Zhen Huan x An Lingrong + I bet on losing dogs, Mitski

top ten lies said by the emperor
1.
😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭
Lingrong was a fucked-up person, but she was still Zhen Huan's little sister. A little sister Yixiu groomed, isolated and abused. It wasn't Zhen Huan or the Emperor who killed Lingrong - it was Yixiu. Zhen Huan filling Yixiu's palace with birds after her imprisonment is way to never let her forget what she did. The way that Zhen Huan stares at those birds when she visits Yixiu's palace fucks me up. Do you think that Yixiu even regretted what she did to Lingrong, or did she only regret loosing her most loyal supporter? Either way, Zhen Huan only visits the palace after becoming Empress Dowager. She had no way of knowing if Yixiu regretted what she did, and quite frankly didn't care. When she saw Nian Shilan and Lingrong die, she felt layers of complicated emotions amongst her hate. Yixiu does not get a single shred of sympathy from her and it is so cathartic.
Yixiu took the maternal trust given to her by Lingrong and violently abused it, so in the end it is darkly fitting that she died like Lingrong's mother - eyes failing, overshadowed by concubines and abandoned by a husband who won't even look at her.
Something I haven't seen discussed is how duh, Zhen Huan gets the Emperor's favour for looking like Chunyuan, but to Yixiu, Zhen Huan looks like her sister back from the dead. Her sister, who stole the role of primary wife from her. Her sister, who robbed her son of his rightful inheritance. Her sister, who she killed. Yixiu was unsettled enough to talk the Emperor into assigning Zhen Huan as attendant and not noble lady as she entered the palace and arranging her to live in a remote palace. How much more unsettled do you think Yixiu got after she saw history repeating before her very eyes? How much do you think Yixiu was acting in outright hatred of Zhen Huan, versus terror of Chunyuan? Do you think she felt haunted? Do you think that when Zhen Huan met her for the last time as Empress Dowager, to Yixiu it must have felt like Chunyuan claiming her revenge?
i'm so sad the audio of empresses in the palace in youtube got messed up. i dont know if it's copyright issues or whatever, but parts of the audio got muted and whenever it's muted the subtitles also are gone. it's such a shame :(
update now that i started my rewatch: in the earlier episodes, the audio is still gone but subtitles are restored! ep 1-15 according to the translators' twt. hopefully it'll all be restored someday
