What kind of secret is hidden between the emperor and Shen Meizhuang in "The Legend of Zhen Huan"?
01
Shen Meizhuang came from a noble background, and became a nobleman as soon as he entered the palace, becoming the first person in that group of beautiful women to be favored by the emperor.
In addition to pampering, she was also favored by the emperor and the empress dowager, becoming the first person in their hearts to focus on cultivation.
Shen Meizhuang deserves this, just like as a student she is excellent, such an excellent ability is definitely worthy of such a high starting point.
But we forget the fact that excellent people can't stand to be belittled, because long-term excellence has made them proud.
Just like the students who are always at the top in school, they are accustomed to being pampered, and once they are ignored and their abilities are questioned, then their hearts will be extremely painful.
This is what we call killing.
Shen Meizhuang, who had just entered the palace, was dignified and atmospheric, and won the favor of the emperor, and also obtained the right to study the sixth palace.
At this time, she was valued.
Why did the emperor attach importance to Shen Meizhuang, was it because of love?
Not. There was a reason why the emperor intended to promote Shen Meizhuang.
Shen Meizhuang's background is not low, and he has been cultivated according to the appearance of the palace since he was a child, which can be seen by the Empress Dowager and the Emperor at a glance.
The harem really needs concubines like Shen Meizhuang.
Before Shen Meizhuang entered the palace, Concubine Hua almost became the boss in the harem, and she was flying and domineering, provoking the empress everywhere.
And her brother kept making successes in the previous dynasty, made great achievements in battle, and was unruly, and he had long threatened the power of the emperor.
The emperor's former harem faced two major threats, and he had to guard against it.
Therefore, a new administrator was installed in the harem, the emperor was to balance Concubine Hua, and the empress dowager was to protect the position of the empress.
Shen Meizhuang, as an excellent showgirl, she naturally became the target of the emperor and the empress dowager.

As soon as Shen Meizhuang was favored, the emperor immediately gave her the authority to study the sixth palace.
This novice needs to be cultivated well, and the emperor is also a little anxious in order to let Shen Meizhuang get started as soon as possible so that he can solve his problems.
Why do you say that?
Because Shen Meizhuang had just entered the palace, the last thing she could be anxious about was to come out, but the encouragement of the emperor and the empress dowager made her forget her caution, and she accidentally fell into the jealousy of Concubine Hua.
Concubine Hua's temper, the emperor knows better than anyone, obviously the emperor tested Meizhuang's ability in this matter.
Although Meizhuang was reused, her ability to fight in the palace was far from enough, and after the fish feeding in Qianli Lake was pushed into the water, the emperor came to see Shen Meizhuang and said, "It's not useful!" ”
This sentence seems to be blaming the subordinates around Meizhuang, but it is actually a disappointment in Meizhuang.
Concubine Hua's little trick was able to pull Shen Meizhuang off the horse, which shows that Shen Meizhuang's ability to judge the time and size up the situation is not strong.
Although Shen Meizhuang was appreciated, she did not know how to guard against it, which was also seen by the emperor after the Qianlihu incident.
Later, during the fake pregnancy incident, Shen Meizhuang was completely pulled off the horse by Concubine Hua, and she was also heartbroken.
She was sad because the emperor said that he valued her, but when she encountered the framing of Concubine Hua, she didn't even give the emperor a chance to debate a few words, and even before she found the escaped imperial doctor, the emperor was already in a hurry to convict her.
For so long, the emperor has been holding her in the palm of his hand, but he didn't expect that when he encountered such a thing, the emperor didn't trust her at all.
This is Meizhuang's grievance, the emperor first held and then killed, which disappointed her deeply.
03
What Shen Meizhuang didn't know was that the reason why the emperor did not trust her in the fake pregnancy incident was not just because of the fake pregnancy, but because of the disappointment of her ability.
He worked hard to select such a chess piece to balance Concubine Hua, and this pawn was defeated by Concubine Hua in three strokes and five by two, and such a consequence hit the emperor in the face.
The emperor did not expect that this chess piece was so useless, and after the last time of Concubine Hua, he would obediently go to the second time.
This was the emperor's disappointment.
This also shows that the emperor has never liked Shen Meizhuang, and just used her as a pawn.
In the same kind of thing, the emperor's attitude towards Zhen Huan and Shen Meizhuang was completely different.
The cassava flour incident also involved the imperial heir, Zhen Huan was framed by Concubine Hua, and the emperor looked at Concubine Hua and Cao Guiren in front of him singing and reconciling, and he didn't believe a word.
He was convinced that Zhen Huan would not do such a thing and allowed Zhen Huan to justify, but out of helplessness, he only ordered Zhen Huan to be grounded, and even the timely appearance of Concubine Duan relieved Zhen Huan's punishment, which also made the emperor very happy.
This is the emperor's trust.
Because the emperor likes Zhen Huan, from the first time they saw her face like Chunyuan, the emperor has fallen in love with her.
For what he likes, the emperor can certainly be tolerant and partial.
And for Shen Meizhuang, the emperor's positioning at the beginning was a pawn to balance Concubine Hua, and the emperor did not love her, but respected her, just like the concubine back then.
Concubine Jing was also a pawn for the emperor to balance Concubine Hua, but Concubine Jing pretended to be cowardly for half her life and did not let the emperor get his wish, so the emperor did not hope for her.
The same is true of Shen Meizhuang, and the emperor does not have any hope for her.
Shen Meizhuang saw this through, the reason why she was cold to the emperor after the fake pregnancy incident was also because she saw that the emperor did not have a little true affection for herself, and even the emperor was still very sentimental, and did not even talk about any feelings.
A man who does not love her and is very cool is not worth her heart.
Shen Meizhuang, who likes chrysanthemums, is arrogant, and she would rather be alone for a lifetime than please such a man.
Therefore, she turned around and chose the path of relying on the Empress Dowager, completely extinguishing the emperor's hopes.
