"The Legend of Zhen Huan" after the death of the palace maid Fuzi, the emperor fed the queen a mouthful of bird's nest, and there is a deep meaning behind it

" Zhen Huan Biography " has a detail: the emperor ate the bird's nest sent by the queen, and after eating it himself, he also fed the queen a mouthful.

If the person being fed is Zhen Huan or Hua Fei , then this detail is not surprising at all, the emperor loves them very much, feeding is to release love and create interest.

But the object of this detail happening is the queen is different.

The emperor doesn't like the queen, and usually doesn't even bother to say a word of love. At most, it is a superficial husband and wife , ​​but the emperor suddenly feeds her bird's nest, which is worth looking into. After

finished eating, the queen's shy face and unexpected eyes also proved that feeding is abnormal.

Why did the emperor suddenly feed the queen to eat bird's nest? This matter has to go back to Concubine Hua.

01

When Concubine Hua greeted the queen, the palace maid Songzhi knocked over the queen and brought it to concubine Hua's dessert.

Songzhi is an old man around Concubine Hua. It is impossible to be so frizzy.

Concubine Hua apologized to the queen from the bottom of her heart, but she was actually relieved.

The queen naturally can't be dumb in this matter. She said that Songzhi is the personal maid of Concubine Hua, and Songzhi should not do such trivial matters as serving tea and pouring water. She should arrange for others. So "kindly" assigned his palace maid Fuzi to Concubine Hua.

Fuzi became Concubine Hua's palace maid, which means that the queen put eyeliner in Concubine Hua's palace.

Concubine Hua was of course unwilling, but she could not object to the queen's arrangement.

A certain emperor came to Hua Fei's palace for dinner. As soon as he saw Fuzi's raw face, he chatted with her a few words, and then took advantage of the situation to raise Hua Fei: She looks pretty and deserves to be served in your palace.

But this made Concubine Hua dislike Fuzi even more, and felt that her favor was divided up.

What's more, the emperor also praised that Fuzi is handsome, maybe one day he will become a concubine, isn't he creating an enemy for himself?

Whether it is the eyeliner of the queen or the maid who is praised by the emperor, Concubine Hua does not want Fuzi to stay in her palace.

When a person is not liked, everything is wrong.

Concubine Hua was furious because Fuzi pulled her hair when she combed her hair, and secretly asked Zhou Ninghai to deal with Fuzi. When Fuzi was found dead in the well, Concubine Hua ordered people in the palace to claim that Fuzi had slipped into the well.

The queen told the emperor that Fuzi fell into the water for no reason and drowned. The queen

used the word "unclear", which really caught the emperor's attention. The big living people died unexplainably and died in the palace, so she ordered the queen to conduct a thorough investigation.

02

After a thorough investigation, the eunuch found that Fuzi's death was man-made, not that Concubine Hua had "slipped". Concubine Hua lied, and it was obvious that she was the mastermind who killed Fuzi.

With this conclusion, how did the queen do it? First of all, ordered someone to report the matter to the emperor, thinking of waiting for the emperor to send concubine Hua.

But the emperor didn't move at all. She couldn't sit still thinking about overthrowing Concubine Hua all day long. Then, she took the stewed bird's nest to imperial study to see the emperor.

She also said the reason for the meeting very well, "autumn is here, the emperor needs supplements", in fact, she asked the emperor: Fuzi's death was caused by Concubine Hua, what are you going to do?

So, after the emperor ate a mouthful of bird's nest, the queen said: "Fuzi's death, the emperor, you know it. It's common to be jealous in the palace, but I can't condone this kind of atmosphere. How should I deal with this? Please let the emperor know.

But the emperor said calmly: I know who did this. The palace is jealous because they have feelings for me, and this matter needs to be properly handled by the queen.

The emperor actually conveyed one thing: Don't go into details about Fuzi's death, and don't blame Concubine Hua. Queen, you can deal with it yourself and calm down the harem.

After the emperor said this, he fed the queen a mouthful of bird's nest. I told her: Autumn is coming, you should also pay attention to supplementation. The queen

was obviously startled by the emperor's actions. She had not enjoyed the treatment of being fed by the emperor for many years.

Why does the emperor want to feed the queen bird's nest at this time?

Looking back, it was the emperor who asked the queen to investigate Fuzi's death. When the queen diligently found out the whole thing, it was Concubine Hua who did it, but the emperor didn't want to pursue it.

So feeding the bird's nest, the emperor just wanted to express two points:

First, the queen has worked hard to track down Fuzi, and said that it was me who wanted to investigate, and now it is me who doesn't want to be investigated. As the queen, you should understand me.

Second, I know that you and Concubine Hua are always in conflict. Concubine Hua is wrong about this matter. I know it is unfair to you not to punish her, but I don't want to punish her. Empress, please be more considerate.

Fuzi's death is over.

So, why did the emperor lose his mind after learning that the mastermind behind Fuzi's death was Concubine Hua?

It's not that the emperor doesn't want to punish Concubine Hua, but an unexpected situation has occurred. At this time, he can't move Concubine Hua!

03

When Fuzi's death was first found out, the court faced a major difficulty - a mutiny in Qinghai.

And the only one who can quell this dispute is Nian Gengyao , the elder brother of Concubine Hua, who dominates the northwest.

At this juncture, the more the emperor wanted to show his favor to Concubine Hua and win over Nian Gengyao.

Therefore, even if Concubine Hua made a mistake in the palace, she could only endure it and not offend her. Besides, it was only a trivial palace maid who was killed, but he couldn't tell the queen about it.

Coincidentally, just as the emperor decided to send Nian Gengyao to pacify the Qinghai rebellion, Concubine Hua sent someone to bring snacks.

The emperor just took the opportunity to reward Concubine Hua, and he casually found a statement: the assistant to the Six Palaces is thoughtful, so he has a new box of Dongzhu to give to Concubine Hua. The emperor also specially explained to Su Pei and asked him to send it in person.

gave the only box of Dongzhu to Concubine Hua, not even the queen, and asked Su Peisheng to deliver it in person, and said this in front of the people sent by Concubine Hua.

The emperor's gift is very in line with Concubine Hua's personality. Not only is the gift precious, but he also expresses his importance to her as a public face. Other concubines don't have such treatment.

Seeing that the emperor loves his sister so much, Nian Gengyao should be willing to serve the emperor to pacify Qinghai.

But The more the emperor gave Hua Fei a precious gift and held her, the more it showed that the court needed Nian Genyao at this moment, and Hua Fei was just a tool for the emperor to win over Nian Genyao.

Besides, the emperor only favored Concubine Hua on the surface, but his heart was already full of fear, and the death of Fuzi was just a fuse. The Nian brothers and sisters should intervene in the affairs of the state, which made the emperor dissatisfied, but because of the accident of the Qinghai rebellion, the emperor still needed to rely on the Nian family. Had to put out the fuse that just lit the fire. The emperor

's plan to eradicate the Nian family can only be pushed back.

After the newcomer entered the palace, the emperor couldn't wait to explain that Meizhuang learned to deal with the affairs of the Six Palaces, and let her practice her skills, so as to make perfect preparations for Meizhuang to replace Concubine Hua one day.

In terms of palace fighting, apart from Zhen Huan, no one should be able to match the emperor.
