In the biography of Zhen Huan, from concubines to concubines, to palace women, the smiles of each woman in the play have their own characteristics and styles.
Zhen Huan's agility and wisdom, An Lingrong's hateful and pitiful, Huanbi's heart is higher than the sky, Ye Lanyi's dare to love and dare to hate, etc., each of which makes people sigh, of which I appreciate shen Meizhuang the most.
Many people comment that Shen Meizhuang's life is miserable, but I feel that she is like an independent chrysanthemum in the cold autumn, although she looks gentle and weak, in fact, she is strong in her heart, has principles and a bottom line, and will not let people step on their heads at will.
Even in the real world, there are not many women who can live like Shen Meizhuang, which is why I especially like her.
Shen Meizhuang should be a person portrayed by Liu Yizi who is not so advocating feudal patriarchy, of course, this is limited to Shen Meizhuang after the fake pregnancy incident.
In the early stage, Shen Meizhuang still conformed to the image of a feudal lady, with generous and decent manners, calm and confident, and the virtue of a concubine. In Meizhuang's eyes, the emperor was the best man under the heavens, and it was an honor to marry him.
She was proficient in poetry etiquette and everything from childhood, just for the day of the draft. After entering the palace, she tried her best to cater to feudal values, such as wanting to have a son to fight for the future, and she was very concerned about Jun'en.
The "fake pregnancy incident" hit Shen Meizhuang quite hard, not only made her lose the title of "Hui Gui ren", but also was grounded by the emperor, the most important thing is that Shen Meizhuang's dignity has been trampled in all directions, how much she hates Concubine Hua behind her, how disappointed she is with the emperor.
If the emperor could trust a little more and investigate things clearly, Shen Meizhuang would not be so chilled. Maybe it's the pride of the bone, or maybe it's the high level of spiritual purity.
After the great enlightenment, she could not return to this man like a good sister Zhen Huan.
In the later period, Shen Meizhuang looked down on these things that made a living, and she understood that it was not gentle and virtuous to live this life well, even if you have the ability and know how to measure up, you will be abandoned and framed, she knows what she really needs.
Therefore, the dignified and heavy Shen Meizhuang abandoned the hidden restraint and fell in love with the honest Wen Taiyi. I thought: If it wasn't for the jug of wine that night, maybe they wouldn't have happened after all.
But it really happened, Mei Zhuang was not afraid and afraid, but in his own way, he gave the child a name, protected the person he loved, and completely broke her original value system.
In the end, Mei Zhuang died in the arms of her lover, she said to Zhen Huan, "Should you be happy with this Concubine Xi", and said to Wen Shichu, "I am very happy to be confused like this", at that moment, I think she is the strongest one in the whole play.
Her strength is not only manifested in her ability to afford to put it down, but in her ability to unswervingly do what she thinks is right.
From a moral point of view, the combination of Meizhuang and Wen Shichu is equivalent to contempt for imperial power, but from the perspective of personal emotions, it seems to be beyond reproach.
In the end, Shen Meizhuang is brave and powerful, but she is also an idealist, incompatible with the environment of the harem, and these characteristics of her personality have led to her not succeeding in the harem struggle like Zhen Huan after all.
Therefore, she finally fell like a chrysanthemum, proudly holding the fragrance alone and falling into the cold wind.
