Out of many ancient
stories,one of TVB's most popular series was War and Beauty! A drama
full of twists and turns unbelievably unexpected! At first I thought
the story is about women and their schemes to gain power! It turns out
that each and every one of them had a reason.Absolutely recommended to
watch!

.:Quotes:.
--Yuk Ling: Leung leung, what can I do to make you believe me?
I will do anything Leung leung!Please, will you believe me,leung leung?
Yu Fei:*Drops a chai* You want me to prove your innocence? Cut your face!
Yuk Ling:*crying* Leung leung....
Yu Fei:What? You dare not?
Yuk Ling:*cries* *sobs*
Yu Fei: In the palace, I
hate those who try to win His Majesty's favour against me. But you told
me you're loyal to me and have no other plans, That is to say, even if
you cut your face, you have nothing to lose. What are you waiting for
then? Why don't you do it now? Yuk Ling:*STILL crying*
Yu Fei: The other day when you held the fan, you acted well.
Why are you so chicken now? Finish the performance! Cut it if you want
me to believe you!
Yuk Ling:*cries and picks up the chai.....but she drops it and bow*
Yu Fei: Loser!
--Yuk Ling:He (Suen Bak Yeung)meant well? You guys knew what kind of
person Yee Shun was. He wanted me to get away from the battlefield to
save my life. How nice of him to say so. If he's so righteous, why
didn't he tell Wong Sheung and Wong Hou everything? Tell them who's the
good guy and who's bad! He's just a hypocrite!
Onn Sin: In the palace, there are thingsto be done and things
that aren't. This is the way of life. Siu Ju, you yourself aren't
showing you true self either.
Yuk Ling: I appeared dumb. I faked it, I have to stay away from trouble! This is the only method!
Onn Sin: Hum relationship in the palace is so vulnerable and unpredictable. How many people really stay away from trouble?
--Yuk Ling:You think my mother will send me money?
Onn Sin: Then what's the point of this letter?
Yuk Ling: I promised I'd send a letter before Mid-Autmn. If I
don'tsend one, she'll know something is wrong! I don't want her to
worry! Dont you understand?
*NEW*--Eunuch: The eunuchs killed and captured 16 rebels outside the
Gate of Righteousness. The prince was so brave that he killed the
rebels and drove them away. The soldiers from the Elite Camp of Lord
Yee have already entered the palace through the four doors in the East,
South, West and North. The situation is under control.
Wong Hou: Where are Madam Shun and Madam On?
Eunuch is silent.
Wong Hou: I ask you where are the two brats?
Yu Fei: Madam Shun and Madam On tried to run away from the
attacks of the rebels. Officer Hung escorted them to the imperial
pharmacy. Unfortunately, they were surrounded by the rebels and
eventually killed in a fire. They died in honour for the reputation of
Qing.
Wong Hou: You’re just a humble concubine! How dare you make up stories for others in the Palace of Gathering Excellence? Guards!
Yu Fei: Guards? Who actually do you want to summon? You want
people to find out who sent the eunuchs to the Palace of Meditation
dressed up like rebels? Or do you want people to find out why all the
doors of Shingkin Palace were sealed so that no on escaped from the
fire? Wo want people to find out who did that?
Wong Hou: You always work against me in all these years. How dare you!
Yu Fei: So what? You think I’m not up to it? Or are you scared
now? You must accept the fact of aging. You must also accept defeated
if your tricks don’t work!
Wong Hou: You..you..
Yu Fei:Don’t you worry. It always been you and me who compete
with each other in the palace. It was so, it is so and it will always
be so. In your days to come, you’d better figure out clearly as to how
to feel a pain in the neck about me!
