In the intricate court drama "The Legend of Zhen Huan", there is an indispensable role, and that is the cat. This mysterious little creature seems to play a magic mirror in Zhen Huan's fate, reflecting endless entanglements and emotional surges.
Stepping into the palace for the first time, facing countless competitors, Zhen Huan faced the test of "dignified and steady" designed by the Queen Mother. The leisurely cat in the hands of the Queen Mother is nothing less than whether she is suitable to stay in this rich palace examiner. However, this preliminary meeting, the fear that the cat planted in Zhen Huan's heart, seemed to indicate her future twists and turns.
Queen Yixiu keenly captured this, and skillfully used Zhen Huan's fear to warn her: "Don't look at its docility and think it won't hurt people, after all, it's a beast, and I don't know when it will change its heart." These words were like a cold knife light, cutting sharply through Zhen Huan's heart.
However, the cat tricks of fate did not stop there. Ye Lanyi, the maverick woman, attracted countless cats and went straight to Zhen Huan's bedroom. Facing Zhen Huan, who was about to give birth, those cats were like hungry beasts, showing their teeth and claws. This fright made Zhen Huan give birth prematurely, adding a deep haze to her state of mind.
And the king of Guojun, who broke all the shackles for Zhen Huan, was so enthusiastic and sincere when he pursued her, why did Zhen Huan never open his heart to accept him?The answer may be hidden in the incident in which King Guojun killed a cat that stole a thrush for Zhen Huan. The sharp scream, the instinctive fear, and the determination of King Guojun to stand up to protect her all became a turning point in Zhen Huan's heart.
During that time in Ganlu Temple, Zhen Huan's heart was like a feather blown by the wind, fluttering. She was originally in love in Qingliangtai, but her peace was broken by the appearance of the emperor. That complicated feeling came to her heart like a tide: she was a concubine, the mother of Princess Haoyue, and her identity and responsibilities made it impossible for her to easily choose her emotional destination. So, she decided to return to Ganlu Monastery in search of inner peace.
The thrush that Wen Shichu bought for Zhen Huan sang happily in the cage, but it attracted the covetousness of the wild cats in the mountains. The cat's eyes gleamed coldly in the moonlight, and it swooped down on the window to attack the caged bird. Zhen Huan instinctively reached out to block it, and the screams of horror echoed in the night sky. This unforgettable fear made her completely understand her heart - only King Guojun could give her true peace and shelter. So, she decided to put aside all her worries and threw herself into the arms of King Guojun. In the silence of the night, Zhen Huan's boudoir was suddenly broken by a flurry of panicked footsteps. Huanbi, her personal maid, hugged the quilt tightly, put it on Zhen Huan's body, and screamed: "Jinxi, hurry up and get the cat out!."Miss is afraid of this animal, let it go!At this time, Zhen Huan's small world was overwhelmed by fear.
Under the covers, she trembled and recalled the shadow of her childhood. It was a winter afternoon, and she accompanied her father to visit Fan Shilang's house. There, she meets a playful boy with a kitten in his hand. The boy took advantage of her inattention and tucked the kitten into her brocade jacket. On that cold winter day, the kitten lost her way in her wide brocade jacket, her sharp claws mercilessly scratching at the silk satin, tearing open the cotton wool, and making a piercing "meow". Zhen Huan screamed and cried bitterly, and was so scared that she could only watch it break free from her arms.
Since that day, Zhen Huan has developed a deep fear of cats. Whenever she came close to the animal, she would be too scared to help herself. King Guojun appeared in time and calmed the chaos with his composure. He picked up Zhen Huan, who was frightened by the cat, patted the quilt and comforted: "It's okay, don't be afraid." At that moment, Zhen Huan's mental defense almost completely collapsed. King Guojun, this usually elegant man, actually appeared in the middle of the night and silently guarded her. His appearance was like timely rain, killing the cat that Zhen Huan hated in one fell swoop. She was a little stunned, and this inadvertent plot development made her stunned.
There are birds in the mountains, why send them?"She thought to herself. Are there no birds in the mountains?Why did you send a "bird"?In fact, Zhen Huan knew in her heart that the "bird" was just deliberately sent by King Guojun, just like when he gathered butterflies for her, this time the "hero saves the beauty" is just the same drama, a group of cats gathered by special means, just to appear at her most fearful moment, and stage a good show of "cat's mouth".
Ye Lanyi's "Tuanrong" was originally the convener of the cat, and Guojunwang's actions seemed to be a pre-rehearsed script. Zhen Huan's heart rippled, and the experience of being injured by a cat in her childhood was an indelible shadow in her heart, and it was also a weakness that her political enemies repeatedly exploited.
Being peeked at for weakness is like being peeed at in the dark. Those political enemies are like cunning hunters, quietly targeting her soft underbelly, and they are sure to hit with one blow. This frightened her, as her weaknesses had long been exposed, and she was nothing more than a pawn ready to be defeated in this game of thrones.
