What is the contradiction between the legend of Wu Meiniang and history?
After the replay of the legend of Wu Meiniang, all the pictures of concubines were cut above the shoulders. Many people denounced this kind of editing as inconsistent with historical facts, meaning that the folk customs in the Tang Dynasty were open and the chest was not cut enough. Many historians also say that "topless clothes" did exist, and the neckline of the beautiful women in the Tang Dynasty could be opened very low, but the problem is that the beautiful women in the Tang Dynasty took nature as beauty and did not deliberately squeeze it like in the play. Some experts who study historical facts also said that "there was no shaping underwear in the Tang Dynasty, and it was difficult to support women's fullness only by the strength of silk products." Wu Zetian (624 ~705) was the only female emperor in the history of China. Tang Gaozong was the Empress (655 ~683), Tang Zhongzong was the Empress Dowager (683 ~690), and later he became the Emperor of Wu Zhou (690 ~705). Wu's family is the second daughter of a military commander, the founding hero of the Tang Dynasty, which is extremely controversial in history. Although The Legend of Wu Mei Niang admits that Wu Meiniang was born with a silver spoon in his mouth, there are many places in the play that are inconsistent with historical facts.

The Legend of Wu Mei Niang is a highly valuable TV series, so what should Wu Meiniang look like? According to historical records, Wu Zetian's appearance is: strange moon, beads of heaven and phoenix neck, broad forehead. That is, square forehead, square face, plump appearance, extraordinary appearance (with a king's face), big eyes and slender neck. She has an atmospheric appearance, which is different from ordinary women. Hearing of her beauty, Emperor Taizong chose her to enter the palace and become a gifted scholar. Then she can let Li Zhi fall in love, and beauty must be beautiful. But the beauty of Wu Meiniang and Fan Bingbing's sharp chin are obviously different. Observe Wu Meiniang's legendary concubines, all with small faces and pointed chins. It's all very modern. Isn't it beautiful at that time?

There are not many tinkling jewels in the princess's headdress.

The Legend of Wu Mei Niang pursues exquisite costumes, and costumes and headdresses are also the biggest highlights of this series. However, as early as when the publicity photos of this drama were amazing, there were antique forums that spoke out against the historical facts. What's more, many costumes in Wu Meiniang were like Japanese geisha. With the broadcast, many netizens spoke out that the headdress of "The Legend of Wu Mei Niang" was extremely cumbersome and vulgar. It is said that the makeup bun in the Tang Dynasty is changeable, and Zhu Cui and silk flower only set off the unique bun, instead of being surrounded by those jingling jewels. Based on The Poem of Daming Palace and Liu Xiaoqing's Wu Zetian, it is a historical failure to wear a few catties of headdress in the play. Historians also claim that this drama, from armor to headdress, is the true history of the Tang Dynasty.

Wu Meiniang's name comes from a song "Wu Meiniang"

In the play, Wu Meiniang claims that his real name is Wu Zhao, which is as he wishes, which is inconsistent with historical facts. Wu Zetian has names such as Wu Zhi, Wu Meiniang and Wu Zetian, but these are not her real names. Her real name is not recorded in the history books, but Wu Biao was created by herself, and Wu Mei was given by Emperor Taizong. Historian Mengman tells the origin of this name in Lecture Room. "This little girl is charming, and Emperor Taizong took such a name. Sounds good, but don't take it too seriously. Why? Wu Meiniang is actually the name of a popular song, which has existed since the Sui Dynasty. There is a song called Wu Meiniang. Just like ten years ago, there was a song in the village called Xiao Fang. Just like this Xiao Fang, Emperor Taizong regarded Wu Zetian as such a gadget and gave her the name of a popular song. "
