Eternity is a simple word, but it is not easy to achieve. The emperor is the symbol of the country, and the harem beauties are like clouds. However, how can the emperor's meager love favor a single person?
The annual costume masterpiece "The Legend of Zhen Huan" vividly shows the intrigue between the harem concubines, the originally kind and gentle Zhen Huan gradually became ruthless in the harem, and even Yongzheng, who took his last breath, resented her.
Chun'a, a girl who left a simple and innocent impression on the audience, is she really like what we see? When she went to bed for the first time, the emperor changed into pajamas, and what secrets were hidden in them?
Zhen Huan, the protagonist in the TV series, her first encounter with the emperor in the back garden made Shiro fall in love, but the emperor lied that he was the king of Guojun, so he had that classic line: "That year, the apricot blossoms were slightly raining, you said that you were the king of Guojun, maybe it was wrong from the beginning." ”
In the relationship between these three people, some people will eventually become superfluous, so how much sincerity does the emperor have for Zhen Huan? As the king of a country, the world is more important to him, and Concubine Ping's position is used to balance the power of her family and consolidate the imperial power.
When Zhen Huan was drafted, her appearance was exactly the same as that of the late Queen Chunyuan, which reminded Yongzheng of Queen Chunyuan. He talked to Zhen Huan, and Zhen Huan was given the title of "Guan".
There is a hint of irony in this title and the emperor's affection, because Zhen Huan's favor may be because Shiro loves the shadow of Empress Chunyuan, and this memory reminds her of the happy times with Empress Chunyuan.
Zhen Huan's wisdom and knowledge made the emperor appreciate it very much, and he could even borrow Zhen Huan's hand to balance the harem and avoid jealousy among the concubines.
Chun'er and Zhen Huan are sisters who live together in the palace, Zhen Huan in Chun'er's eyes is a gentle sister and a much-loved nobleman, and the two usually talk a lot because of their similar family backgrounds.
However, Chun'er is also a concubine and longs to be favored by the emperor, so it is inevitable that she will have some scheming in the harem, but her simple image provides her with some protection in the harem.
Chun'er is not a dull person, and knows that the emperor loves her, so she often comes to Sister Guan's palace, hoping to attract the emperor's attention. When the emperor came to Zhen Huan's palace to chat, Chun'er came to find delicious snacks, which seemed simple, but in fact he was secretly scheming.
A smart woman holding a red plum in her hand attracted the attention of the emperor, who praised her for being in the palace for a while and seemed to have grown up a lot.
Chun'er replied with a smile: "The concubine is over 17 years old and ready to sleep at any time." Her eyes showed expectation, and Yongzheng's eyes also saw her opportunity to become her beloved.
In Zhen Huan's palace, Chun'er talked happily with the emperor, and often praised Sister Guan's beauty and kindness. She affectionately called the emperor and Zhen Huan her sister and brother-in-law, a move that made Zhen Huan believe that she would not become her competitor and that the two would not become enemies in the future.
That night, Chun'er got the opportunity to sleep, and her smile never disappeared, which made her father-in-law who came to see her sigh: "It's really the first time I've seen this kind of character of the little master." ”
Chun'er's sleeping is not accidental, but her clever strategy, she understands that only by holding Zhen Huan, the big fish, can she get a piece of the pie in the court and have a certain right to speak.
In the interaction between Chun'er and Zhen Huan, her scheming and wisdom are revealed everywhere, and she hopes to get Sister Guan's help by testing Zhen Huan's thoughts through her aunt's mouth.
Zhen Huan also understands Chun'er's situation and thinks that she has reached the age of fighting for opportunities, which undoubtedly shows that Chun'er has her own unique views in the court. This is one of the reasons why she was able to establish herself in the court at such a young age.
Chun'er knew that the emperor was a strict person, and she tried her best to attract the emperor's attention. Her actions are not just staring at the emperor's pajamas, but also hiding her purpose and ambition.
The emperor noticed Chun'er's liking, so he protected her by cutting the dragon, and at the same time changed into Zhen Huan's special two-dragon pearl-grabbing pajamas, meaning not to be disturbed by the battle in the harem. Chun'er understood the emperor's intentions and shared the matter with Zhen Huan, but inadvertently provoked the relationship between Zhen Huan and An Lingrong, praised the emperor for liking Erlong and pearl pajamas and implied that An Lingrong was an embroidered girl.
Chun'er's words not only estranged An Lingrong and Zhen Huan, but also foreshadowed the breakdown of their relationship. An Lingrong came from a humble background, was introverted and suspicious, and she listened to Chun'er's words, which made her sensitive nerves more tense, and her dissatisfaction with Zhen Huan also deepened.
And the deep meaning behind Chun'er's dressing is the emperor's ingenious design. The emperor knew that Chun'er and Zhen Huan had a close relationship, and believed that Chun'er's words would definitely reach Zhen Huan's ears to express his love for Zhen Huan.
And the development of this plan is also as Yongzheng foresaw. The emperor hoped that every concubine in the harem could feel his favor and make the rule of the previous dynasty more stable.
In front of the empress, the emperor changed into another set of pajamas to show his memory of his first love and pampered Concubine Hua, which gave Concubine Hua the opportunity to show weakness in front of Yongzheng.
Yongzheng is well aware of the fierceness of the battle in the harem, and every move may cause an uproar, but behind the pajamas is his scheming. The emperor's affection for Zhen Huan made Zhen Huan hurt again and again in the palace struggle, and also made her feel disappointed in the emperor again and again.
So, she turned to King Guojun, who was dedicated to her. "The emperor is ruthless, and the most difficult thing is the family", Concubine Hua really loved the emperor, but in the end she died under the power of the emperor.
Although Chun'er is smarter than Concubine Hua, she is still far from the emperor's cunning.
The emperor's favor was like a sharp double-edged sword, which brought deep pain to countless women who fell in love with him. Those sweet words are like delicate golden silk birdcages, which seem beautiful, but in fact they are imprisoned.
In the end, he chose Jiangshan Sheji, not those women who gave everything for him.
