Wen Qing is honestly the most tragic character, IMO. Even the characters in the Yi City arc get some sort of “appeasement” when Xue Yang is killed and Song Lan gets the spirit pouch with Xiao Xingchen’s fragmented spirit back. Wen Qing endured so much, survived by tooth and nail, struggled to make the best of the infertile soil in the Burial Mounds and still had to see her whole clan murdered in front of her and die such a horrible and dishonoring death (because displaying her body hung on the city walls was to disrespect their bodies). She never got to pay back for the deeds done to her, the slander, the struggle. Her life was a constant battle and it didn’t get better after death. The women in MDZS are really mostly unfortunate! The only one who got some sort of “happy” ending was Mian Mian!
We are really getting spoiled lately with beautiful Wen sibling videos and I'm loving it!!! 🥰 Your videos are works of art that illustrate the story and feelings of the characters so well! 💯 You find such great songs and just the right video clips and edit it all so perfectly! I love the end of this one with Wen Ning remembering the home they built together in the burial mounds. Very poignant! 😭 The song you used also made me think of Wen Qing's character song lyrics (ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-hKAfQhNVZvU.html) where it says her life was like she was trapped in mud, first stuck with Wen Ruohan and his rotten kids and with Wen Ning practically used as a hostage to manipulate her, then unable to free herself or those she loved from the terrible reputation their surname gave them. 💔 The good side of the Wen family deserved so much better! ✊️😔
Tbh, Wen Qing (& generally Wen Ning and the Wen remnants) are the reason why I won't ever be able to love Jiang Cheng or Nie Mingjue or Lan Xichen. And Wen Qing specifically is part of the reason why I can't bring myself to rewatch The Untamed too often. xD
atleast lan xichen told lanzhan that wei wuxian is not wrong to support the helpless people of wen. he did not let lan zhan stay confused about helping wei wuxian or not. about nie mingjue i guess he had no power to help them nor was he close to wen qing and wen ning like wei wuxian and jiang chen. jiang chen angered me, he loved wen ning but refused to stand by her in all those times, he knew how good the wen siblings are, infact they gave him shelter when they were in danger, saved their lives, and did so much but he chose to go with the flow of those manipulative power hungry clan leaders against those who cared for him.
