The life of this harem woman is really different, some people have been trying to get the emperor's favor, but they fell out of favor within a few days;Some people ignore the emperor, but she can always be favored.
For example, Ye Lanyi is not from a high background and has no talent, but he can always be favored by the emperor. Although it cannot reach Zhen Huan's status, it is also a very unique existence in the harem. So why does the emperor have a soft spot for Ye Lanyi?There are several main reasons for this.
First, because of Ye Lanyi's unique regional customs.
Ye Lanyi is different from those Manchu women in the harem, she is a horse trainer. We often say that scarcity is precious, whether it is a person or a thing, once the quantity is scarce, it will naturally be more precious. In the harem, these women that the emperor came into contact with, whether they were Manchu or Han, they all had to be from beautiful backgrounds, and occasionally there were a few palace maids, who had also learned the rules, so they were all one-size-fits-all in the process of interacting with the emperor.
But Ye Lanyi is different, she didn't grow up in the palace since she was a child, so she is not very familiar with the red tape in the palace, and even the emperor is afraid of her restraint, so he even exempts her from some basic etiquette.
Why did she do this, the emperor's meaning is also very simple, that is, he hopes that she can continue to retain that rare pure natural wildness, which is very rare for the emperor. It's like eating rice at home, and occasionally wanting to eat noodles is a reason, and the taste needs to be adjusted.
Throughout the whole "The Legend of Zhen Huan", the women in the harem were constantly updated, but there really didn't seem to be anyone of this type like Ye Lanyi, so even in the end, the emperor was very fond of Ye Lanyi.
Second, the relationship between Ye Lanyi and the emperor is very delicate, and the emperor cherishes it very much.
The only purpose of ordinary women in the harem is to hope to be liked by the emperor, because after being favored, they can have good material treatment, and the family will also be glorified. But Ye Lanyi is not like this, Ye Lanyi herself has no feelings for the emperor, what she likes is King Guojun, in other words, she has a heart, so although she entered the palace and followed the emperor, she didn't look down on this old man at all.
Ye Lanyi usually doesn't have a smile on the emperor, even if he is his concubine, he is absent-minded and doesn't care at all, so the emperor has a little regret and says Why don't I see you laughing?Ye Lanyi said that I don't mean to smile at you, I don't like to laugh by nature. But this is not the case, every time Ye Lanyi sees King Guojun, she smiles very brightly, because the emperor is not her intended person.
It is precisely because of this contrast that the emperor feels fresh, a freshness that has been overlooked. All the women in the world revolve around me, and I can't conquer this woman alone. This aroused the emperor's desire to conquer Ye Lanyi, and the more he couldn't get it, the more itchy he felt in his heart. Otherwise, what you can't get will always be in turmoil. So even if he had been with the emperor for so long, the emperor knew in his heart that Ye Lanyi was not interested in him, so the emperor insisted on competing with her to see if he could conquer Ye Lanyi. In this case, you can only be doubly good to her.
Third, Ye Lanyi couldn't have children, and the emperor felt ashamed of her.
The reason why Ye Lanyi couldn't have children was when she first entered the palace, Concubine Qi gave her medicine that hurt her body at the instigation of the queen, and since then Ye Lanyi can't have children, and the emperor will feel guilty when he sees her.
This is like the queen talking about An Lingrong behind her back, saying that a man's guilt may protect her life's glory and wealth. Ye Lanyi can't have children, which is also a relief and relaxation for her, because ordinary women recognize the emperor and are favored, if they have another child, their ambitions will swell, and they may want to let their children become princes or even emperors. Therefore, in the process of interacting with the emperor, this concubine will calculate the emperor.
Every time the emperor was with these women, he would be on guard, so that he could not relax. But Ye Lanyi can't, Ye Lanyi can't have children, so she doesn't have much hope for the harem and the emperor, and the only thing is to rely on the emperor. So the emperor doesn't need to have any precautions when he is with her, just just enjoy the time between the two of them.
For example, even if the relationship between the emperor and Zhen Huan is so deep, he often thinks that this Zhen Huan is good with him, is it for the sake of the child to inherit the throne?You must know that the emperor's suspicion is particularly serious, which causes the emperor to be very tired with other women. On the other hand, with Ye Lanyi, he doesn't have this kind of burden.
Therefore, the reason why Ye Lanyi has always been favored by the emperor is because the exotic style of Ye Lanyi attracted the emperor, Ye Lanyi's dislike of the emperor caused the emperor's desire to conquer her, and Ye Lanyi's inability to have children made the emperor feel guilty about her all the time, so the emperor would be doubly good to Ye Lanyi.
