The dust of history buried her as the scourge of the country's subjugation, a witchy concubine who suffered millennia of infamy because of the king's ridiculous smile. But the truth is far from what we see.
She was just a child from an ordinary family, but because of a Yao word, her family was ruined. When she should have let go of her hatred, she was destroyed by the iron heel of King Zhou You's conquest. The hatred of the country and the family planted the seeds of revenge in her young heart. She was forced into the Zhou palace, and this was the beginning of her revenge play. What King Zhou You saw was a beauty who was stunningly beautiful but as cold as ice. He didn't know that this coldness that was hard to please was her most deadly weapon. She deliberately kept her distance and never smiled easily, in order to tease the king's greedy and curious heart. Her "not smiling" became a carefully designed bait. Sure enough, King You played tricks on the princes for her, setting off the empire's credit and majesty into a ridiculous fireworks in front of her. When the princes from all walks of life gathered in embarrassment under Lishan Mountain, she finally smiled - it was not the joy of being pleased, but the ridicule and joy of having a great revenge. She was laughing at the king's stupidity, at the embarrassment of the princes, and even more at the dynasty that had swallowed up her homeland and was being pushed into the abyss by her own hands. She is not only a cold observer, but also an active promoter...
Bao Si never led to the demise of the Zhou Kingdom, she only ignited the long-rotten pillars. She used beauty as a blade and indifference as poison, amplifying King Zhou You's insanity to the extreme and hastening the end of his destiny. The death of the Western Zhou Dynasty was not caused by a smile, but by a hearty revenge accomplished by the hands of a beautiful woman.
