Love - "Shadow" Enlightenment Part 2

Article/The butterfly that cannot fly high?

? How deep is the love in "Shadow"? Love and affection.

Dudu Zi Yu and his wife Xiao Ai, one is a famous hero of Pei Kingdom, and the other is a gentle and gentle beauty. They can be called "talented scholars and beautiful ladies" in the eyes of the world, or "divine couples" that attract everyone's attention.

I think Ziyu and Xiao Ai are in love, which can be seen from the well-known "harmonious music" in the court.

"The harp and the piano are in harmony", both players must have the same level of exquisite skills, and they must be in harmony with each other and have a spiritual connection. Only by working in unison and uniting their souls can they achieve the state of "harmony", but Ziyu and Xiao Ai achieved it. With such a profound attainment, it cannot take a thousand days for a drop of water to form a river, nor can it take a thousand days to gather sand to form a tower. It is definitely not something that can be accomplished in one day.

Ziyu cares about Xiao Ai, and he can figure it out from the subtleties of his language. When he cut a wound exactly like his own on the body of the substitute Jingzhou, he said jokingly: "I'm afraid Xiao Ai can't tell which one is the real body and which one is the substitute." Xiao Ai on the side looked confused after hearing this. Is this sentence a reminder to your wife that you need to identify who is your real husband, or is it a pun with hidden meaning? Another time, in the secret room, when Xiao Ai and Jing Zhou had the same mind and finally defeated Yang Cang's sword technique with softness to overcome strength, Zi Yu said sourly: "Today you two are truly worthy of each other." Xiao Ai immediately responded to her husband: " We are just following the same pattern." In fact, Ziyu knew very well that unless the mind is connected, how can the body and mind be united.

If he doesn’t know and doesn’t care, he won’t come to the door and wall to peek. This is a great pain for a man. But he did not have a seizure and could not have one. Because once it happens, the strategy planned for more than ten years will come to nothing. In Ziyu's view, Jingzhou is bound to die anyway, either today or tomorrow; not only because of his secret relationship with his wife, but also because he is a substitute. Just imagine, if the world knew that the substitute made his achievements, wouldn't it be a big joke? A small impatience will mess up a big plan. In the heart of the scheming Ziyu, this truth is clearer than anyone else.

Therefore, I am convinced that Ziyu loves his wife, but he loves power more.

Is there family love in "Shadow"?

For the sake of peace, Peiliang agreed to the minister's suggestion - a political marriage, and asked his sister Princess Qingping to marry Yang Cang's son Yang Ping. And Yang Ping actually proposed to make Qingping his concubine, which was undoubtedly a great humiliation for Pei Guo. When his sister Qingping was filled with indignation, Peiliang pretended to be indifferent and didn't care. Just be a concubine! The stubborn Qingping participated in the Battle of Jingzhou without telling her brother, and stabbed Yang Ping to death with a dagger as a token of love. Before she died, she said: Who told you to bully me!

The battle of Jingzhou came to an end, and Pei Liang was anxious to find his sister. He kept nagging "Where is he?" over and over again. When his sister's body was placed in front of him, at that moment, he looked depressed and regretful. Afterwards, Peiliang killed Lu Yan without hesitation to avenge his sister.

Peiliang seems to be ruthless, but in fact he is righteous.

Therefore, it cannot be denied that Peiliang loves his sister, but he loves the country even more.

The love and affection of the powerful are painted with bright colors and infinite glory. But behind the beauty, who can see the mottled rust?

The love and family affection of the powerful are not pure and cannot be pure. They are always linked to politics. In "The Story of Yanxi Palace", when Emperor Qianlong blamed his concubine for not disciplining the princesses and letting them play around every day. Your concubine said lightly: "What etiquette should you learn? When you grow up, you won't become a victim of your consolidation of the country." What she said was true. Only the mother knew that the princess's happiness would not last long, so she blocked the etiquette and allowed the two daughters to be pure. The romantic time should be stretched as long as possible, and then stretched further.

What kind of love is between Jingzhou and Xiaoai?

Jingzhou said resentfully: "There is no light and no sound. I am alone in the darkness and have touched every crack in the wall." A man who lost his mother since childhood and was imprisoned in a secret room cannot be seen. An orphan of sunshine, a humble little person who lives in the cracks of the powerful. He lives like an ant, and it is no shame to die. It was Xiao Ai who brought a ray of light to Jingzhou's dark world with her maternal aura; it was Xiao Ai who used her compassion to warm Jingzhou's desert-like heart.

Zi Yu also said to Tian Heng: "Madam knows about the substitute. Madam once said he was pitiful and asked me to let him go." Zi Yu's insignificant words revealed Xiao Ai's kindness. kindness. It is rare for a heroic lady who combines dignity and beauty to have such compassion and treat a humble person as dust as an equal. Only in Xiao Ai's eyes, Jingzhou is a human being, a person of flesh and blood. Only Xiao Ai allowed Jingzhou to regain his dignity as a human being.

That night, Jingzhou huddled in the corner, sobbing and trembling. The situation was like a fallen leaf floating in the wind and unable to reach the ground, helpless and helpless; like a homeless little boy, frightened and helpless. Xiao Ai approached him like spring approaching the desert; Xiao Ai hugged him like sea water hugging a fish resting on the shore.

Jingzhou’s love for Xiao Ai is not only a man’s desire for a woman, but also a boy’s pursuit of the motherhood that has been missing for a long time. Xiao Ai's compassion, kindness, and warmth saved Jingzhou and made him successful.

Vice versa, the same is true. Xiao Ai treats Jingzhou like a mother's care for her baby, and a little bit, maybe a woman's desire for youth. Compassion, at a certain period, is also a kind of love, a love without boundaries and impurities, like a river where the thin ice has not yet melted under the warm sunshine of spring.

It is a pity that this kind of unimpaired love melted, deteriorated, and was annihilated in the face of the bloody political struggle. At the end of the film, Xiao Ai rushed to the door in horror and walked out in horror. When you peek through the crack in the door...
