Zhen Huan Biography 10: How did Shen Meizhuang's paranoid stubbornness come about?

believes that friends who have seen Zhen Huan's biography know that Shen Meizhuang has a bit of rebellion in him.

​​The Shen family is everyone, and Shen Meizhuang is the eldest young lady. Unlike Xiaojiabiyu, who is a small family, Shen Meizhuang was trained according to the standard of a decent and generous mistress and a concubine.

​​In ancient times, the standard for women was "a woman is virtuous without talent". Before getting married, listen to her parents, and after marriage, listen to her husband. In order to cultivate such a female virtuous talent, apart from the basic ones, the Shen family did not hesitate to let Shen Meizhuang study.

​​But once you come into contact with knowledge, the whole person will no longer be limited to the frame of the female virtue and female ring. This is the contradiction between the two.

​​Once the book is read, the person has character. This is the case with

​​Shenmeizhuang. When preparing for the

​​draft, Shen Meizhuang practiced at home, and her mother asked her how would you answer if the Empress Dowager asked you what books you had read. Shen Meizhuang's eyes lit up and he answered confidently, "Book of SongsMencius Zuozhuan..."

​​was about to continue, but her mother interrupted her. The mother said, wrong, the emperor is a draft girl today, enriching his own harem, and multiplying offspring, not the champion of learning.

​​At this moment, Shen Meizhuang was shown the camera with a confused and sluggish expression, and it could be seen that she did not agree with her at heart.

​​But she still replied obediently, "Yes, my daughter knows."

​​On the day of the hall selection, the betting question given by the mother was completely correct. The emperor asked her what books she had read. She said that she had read Nu Ze and Nu Xun. The emperor asked her if she had read the Four Books, and she answered that she had never read it.

​​These four books refer to " University ", " Doctrine of the Mean ", "The Analects of Confucius" and "Mencius". She had previously said that she had read Mencius.

​​In the early stage of Shenmeizhuang, there was a certain education. Whether it was the words of the parents or the emperor, it seemed to be the standard answer. Even if they disagreed in their hearts, they would obey. The emperor

​​asked her why she liked chrysanthemums, and she said that she loved her "I would rather die with the fragrance of the branches than be blown by the north wind. The concubine likes its integrity". The emperor

​​said, "chrysanthemums are graceful, but I prefer chrysanthemums to be independent in autumn, not competing with hundreds of flowers for beauty, and can endure loneliness in order to enjoy the long-term".

​​may be accustomed to being educated, or maybe it was because he was in love with the emperor at that time, Shen Meizhuang replied sweetly, "The concubine has been taught."

​​But in fact, the thinking angle of the emperor and Shen Meizhuang is completely different.

​​Shen Meizhuang loves the integrity of chrysanthemums rather than jade, but the emperor is educating her not to compete with hundreds of flowers. It's downright selfish.

​​People like Shen Meizhuang seem to listen to what others say on many things, but they are not. Because I was deprived of the freedom to make judgments and choices since I was a child, all the roads were arranged.

​​But once he can call the shots, he will never change what he has determined, and he is very stubborn. Therefore, after Shenmeizhuang was disappointed with the emperor time and time again, he decided not to serve the emperor again. Even if the Queen Mother and Zhen Huan persuaded him, they did not solve the knot.

​​Compared to Zhen Huan and An Lingrong 's strong changes before and after, Shen Meizhuang actually has the smallest changes. Many people like Sister Mei, like her chrysanthemum-like temperament, like her friendship with Zhen Huan, like her kindness and gentleness, But it can't be said in depth.

​​Actually, I think it's more importantYes, after Shen Meizhuang recognized his own heart, he kept sticking to it, even if he had a difficult time later, the first thing that came to his mind was to serve the queen mother instead of reconciling with the emperor. It can be said that he was very stubborn.

​​If she is just a good girl, maybe not so many people will like her. It is this stubbornness that makes the whole character more three-dimensional and more character, and the image is more vivid.

​​is also precisely because of her "would rather die in the branches", that makes us think of her, as if the fragrance of chrysanthemums came to our hearts.
