The reason why Queen Empresses in the Palace took off her makeup was related to her identity. As the queen of the Qing Dynasty, the queen of a country, and the master of the Sixth Palace who controls the life and death of many concubines, the clothes she usually wears are naturally not ordinary clothes and unparalleled. Although concubines have more jewels than queens in the play, in reality concubines still have less jewels than queens. Although the Queen's clothes are few and the colors are not bright, the most eye-catching jewelry in the whole exhibition is a pair of pearl earrings worn on the Queen's earlobe.

It is no exaggeration to say that it runs through the whole script. The queen wore the whole play from beginning to end. To answer these two questions, we must first start from the beginning. That is to say, when the nun entered the palace for the first time to pay tribute to the queen, Hua Fei told her to show off her jade, and the emperor specially gave her a piece of jade. Then the queen pointed to the earrings with big pearls on her ears and explained to Huafei that the earrings she was wearing were made in Dongzhu, the northeast.

Only the Empress and Empress Dowager can wear these earrings. They are regarded as treasures by the royal family and a gift from the emperor to the Empress. The queen treasures them very much, so she prefers to pick them herself. Another reason is related to her identity. In feudal society, the queen was the wife of the emperor and the royal family. The other concubines around the emperor are sisters of the queen. For the queen, her state has always been the deepest pain point in her heart. Facing the jewelry symbolizing the Queen, she found the touch of others unbearable and even covered with dust.

Taking off the earrings herself also shows her possessiveness, possessiveness of the jewels given by the emperor, and possessiveness and love for the emperor. This paves the way for the future development of the plot and is the key to shaping her deep and ruthless image. So every time she takes off her makeup, the queen will take off her earrings.
