It is also the first Chinese TV series broadcasted in American mainstream media.

The emphasis of the study is laid on the translation methods employed in the C-E translation of the culture-loaded words contained in Empresses in the Palace to reveal that the translation of culture-loaded words is not only to convey the message on the surface of words, but also to render accurately and properly by flexible methods of translation their cultural connotations combined with the particular historical and cultural background.
