When I first ** "Langya Bang", I was deeply attracted by Concubine Jing's gentle and demure appearance, but in fact she was extremely resourceful. However, for such a woman from the people, who originally lived a comfortable life, smart and alert, I have always been a little difficult to understand, why she was willing to become an insignificant palace concubine by Emperor Liang's side?
This question has been bothering me for quite some time. As the experience of watching the drama deepened, I gradually had some understanding of this doubt. Concubine Jing's personality is affectionate and righteous, and she is grateful to Lin Xie's family, and she may not have thought of becoming Emperor Liang's concubine when she was young. However, she was finally willing to become a member of the palace for him, and there must be profound reasons for this, which can be summarized on three levels.
1, Concubine Jing loves Lin Xie deeply, and she loves Wu and Wu in the depths
When he was young, Lin Xie once wandered around the rivers and lakes incognito under the name of Mei Shinan, and had an acquaintance with Concubine Jing. He once lent a helping hand to Concubine Jing when she was in trouble, which inspired Concubine Jing's deep gratitude to him. However, Concubine Jing later learned that Mei Shi Nan was not an ordinary knight, but Lin Xie, a highly respected general of Daliang. Concubine Jing's heart took root here, and she loved Lin Xie deeply, even though Lin Xie did not have a love for her. In the end, because Lin Xie saw that Concubine Jing was living alone, he introduced her to the Lin Mansion and made her a medical woman in the Lin Mansion.
As time passed, Lin Xie's sister Lin Leyao gave birth to the emperor's eldest son, Xiao Jingyu, in the palace for Emperor Liang, but she has been unwell. In order to take care of Lin Xie's own sister, the Lin family decided to send Concubine Jing to the palace. Perhaps in order to alleviate Lin Xie's worries, Concubine Jing also entered the palace willingly. Although Lin Leyao was originally Yanhou's lover and was forced to live in the palace, and harem battles in the palace were inevitable, Concubine Chen was originally in poor health and was not very satisfied with Emperor Liang. In such an environment, she had no intention of fighting with other concubines.
Concubine Jing understood her situation, and she was unwilling and disdainful to participate in the open and secret battles in the harem. Although her attitude towards Concubine Chen is not a struggle, it actually provides a care for Concubine Chen. In this difficult environment, Concubine Chen really needs someone to be by her side and give support. After Concubine Jing entered the palace, she could naturally detect this.
Although Emperor Liang was not a person who coveted beauty, for him, the imperial power was supreme, and everything in the world belonged to him. Concubine Jing was in Concubine Chen's palace, and Emperor Liang could see her every time she came. In the process, he is likely to be attracted to this gentle and demure woman with excellent medical skills. When the emperor becomes interested in a woman, his instinctive reaction is to get her and include her in the harem.
Concubine Jing loves Lin Xie deeply, and it is precisely because of this affection that she feels sorry for his own sister and is willing to solve problems for Lin Xie and take better care of his sister. When Emperor Liang expressed his liking for Concubine Jing, Concubine Jing was likely to take advantage of the situation and become his concubine.
This is the one who loves deeply, and wants not only to be well, but also to be well-being for those he cares about. Concubine Jing is such a person, when she was young, she tried her best to help Lin Xie's brothers and sisters, and later she did her best to help Mei Changsu. Her open-mindedness and courage are truly admirable. In ancient or modern times, such affectionate people are always the most touching. Many people love Concubine Jing because of this great love.
2. Sisterhood is deep
Concubine Jing stepped into the palace wall and cared for Lin Leyao, and the two women with good temperaments must have condensed a deep friendship in the predicament. Although Lin Leyao has a noble status and bathes in glory, her heart is as unhappy as a flower, on the one hand, because she was married to someone she doesn't love, and on the other hand, she is a deceitful battle in the harem.
The trickery of the harem is often carried out behind the scenes, but Lin Leyao rarely has the same hatred for sisters. In this isolated and helpless situation, she may often be plotted by others and suffer many losses. After learning about the loneliness of her good sister in the palace, Concubine Jing must have empathized and felt distressed. In order to stay by Lin Leyao's side, in order to become her solid pillar, it is the best choice to become the emperor's concubine. When Emperor Liang showed kindness in a timely manner, Concubine Jing may have taken advantage of the situation and reluctantly supported Lin Leyao.
Concubine Jing's desire to become Emperor Liang's concubine, sisterhood is undoubtedly also an important consideration. The two snuggled up to each other and spent their oppressive days together, which was touching.
3. The oppression of imperial power
From the moment Emperor Liang began to notice Concubine Jing, became interested in her, and wanted to include her in the harem, Concubine Jing was already difficult to escape. Entering the court as a doctor of the Lin Mansion, her choice not only represents an individual, but also the embodiment of the overall will of the Lin Mansion.
If she resolutely rejects Emperor Liang, it is equivalent to the entire Lin Mansion resisting the decree, and Emperor Liang is suspicious by nature and is the most taboo about other people's disobedience. The crime of resisting the decree may be bearable for Concubine Jing personally, but the Lin Mansion is difficult to bear, and she is absolutely unwilling to put Lin Xie's family in danger because of herself. Therefore, when Emperor Liang decided to accept her as a concubine, she had no choice but to go with the trend.
Thinking about it carefully, Concubine Jing's perseverance and wisdom are really admirable. Maybe she originally just wanted to be an ordinary medical woman and practice medicine to save people from the people, but since she met Lin Xie, her fate began to change. Although entering the palace and becoming Emperor Liang's concubine was contrary to her plan for life, out of her deep love for Lin Xie, she chose another path without hesitation, and walked well on this road. When the Lin family was framed and her lives were devastated, she remained wise and calm, swallowed the shame, and survived silently.
Concubine Jing understands that death is too easy, and if she can live to witness the innocence of the Lin family, or assist the Lin family Zhaoxue, it will be the best consolation for Lin Xie. is convinced that the Lin family is innocent, and after the Lin family was wiped out, she has lived silently in the palace for more than ten years, which can also be regarded as another kind of lying salary. She has been waiting for the opportunity, lurking in the deep palace, although she failed to find evidence and opportunities for the Lin family Zhaoxue, but because of a copy of "Xiangdi Ji", she was fortunate to learn of the existence of Lin Shu outside the palace.
If it weren't for the heart of the Lin family's grievances over the years, if it weren't for the fact that she was always thinking about Zhaoxue for Lin Xie's family, how could Concubine Jing be so quick and firm to determine that Lin Shu was still alive because of a book of "Xiangdi Ji"?This account was one of her strongest desires.
In the end, Concubine Jing relied on her resourcefulness and tacit understanding with Lin Shu outside the palace to successfully clear the suspicion of the Lin family and Concubine Chen's mother and son, and her son also successfully ascended the throne. Concubine Jing's power is like an ability to turn decay into magic, and she is indeed an unusual woman.
