2010 historical drama television series "The Beauty's Stratagem". Set against the backdrop of the Western Han Dynasty, the series portrays the intrigue and intellectual battles within the imperial harem, presenting to the audience a captivating depiction of palace warfare in the Han Dynasty.
Plot Introduction:
"The Beauty's Stratagem" is written by renowned screenwriter Zheng Yu and depicts the cunning and treachery within the enchanting confines of the Han imperial harem, where lives are as insignificant as ants and beauties engage in strategic battles behind the curtains. This series continues Zheng Yu's signature delicate style while also showcasing grandeur. However, "The Beauty's Stratagem" does not follow the old套路of "Palace," but instead aims to be the ancient costume version of "Undercover". This film was carefully prepared by the production team and screenwriter Zheng Yu over nearly two years before its launch.
In the early Western Han period, young Dou Yifang's family was massacred due to her mother being involved in a palace struggle. Growing up, she accidentally becomes a slave in the palace known as 'jiaziren'. She devises a plan to switch the son of Concubine Zhou with the daughter of Empress Dowager Lü - Empress Zhang Yan. Empress Dowager Lü appreciates her intelligence and diligence, and under the guise of an arranged marriage, sends her to the Dai Kingdom to monitor Liu Heng and his mother. For the sake of the common people and to gain Empress Dowager Lü's trust, Yifang suggests that Liu Heng secretly trains troops under the pretense of building a mausoleum, making everyone believe she is a source of trouble. Only Liu Heng always trusts her and makes her empress. Together, they overcome one obstacle after another, eventually achieving great accomplishments. As the empress dowager, she realizes that while power grows, feelings gradually fade. She strives to win back her husband's heart, prevents her sons from killing each other, and uses her unique feminine methods to resolve crises time and again. Furthermore, she contributes to establishing the famous 'Wenjing Era' of prosperity in the Western Han Dynasty. Her name is recorded in history, celebrated by future generations.
