Ancient costume drama show girlBeautiful women in ancient TV dramas were common elements. In some Qing Dynasty dramas, the female characters were usually selected to enter the harem.
Judging from the selection process, the procedure of entering the palace for a beautiful girl in "The Golden Branch of Desire" was more detailed and complicated. First of all, they had to strictly examine the age of the banner. The Ministry of Revenue would first report to the Emperor. After receiving permission from the Emperor, they would immediately send a letter to the Eight Banners Commanders 'Yamen. The officers at all levels would report the list of women of appropriate age to the Eight Banners Commanders' Yamen. Finally, the Ministry of Revenue would report it to the Emperor, and the Emperor would decide the date of the review. The beautiful women selected by each flag were sent to the capital in advance by mule carts. After the beautiful women arrived in the capital, they sat on the mule cart the day before they entered the palace to wait for the election. Moreover, during the palace examination, there would be procedures such as measuring one's calves, letting the father-in-law smell one's breath, examining one's physique, measuring the length of one's feet, raising one's arm to let the palace maid smell whether there was any strange smell in one's armpit, and other cultural specialties such as embroidery, zither, chess, calligraphy, and painting.
In terms of the transformation from a beautiful woman to a concubine, many ancient Qing dramas would change the appearance of a beautiful woman before and after she was promoted to a concubine. For example, Hou Jia Yuying (played by Li Zi) in "Golden Branch Desires Evil" was dressed in pure and elegant clothes when she was a beautiful girl. After she was promoted to a noble person, she put on heavy makeup, giving her a graceful and luxurious feeling. Dong Jia Erchun (played by She Shiman) wore pink clothes when she was a beautiful girl, which set off her quiet and elegant temperament. After she became a noble person, she wore a fluffy flag dress, which made her look more dignified and gentle. There were many beautiful women in different TV dramas. They were often in the complex environment of the harem and had various relationships with other characters. They were an important part of the development of the ancient TV drama plot.
