In the original work, it is not an exaggeration to use the words "lifelong infatuation" to describe Xuanxuan.
Xuanxuan has regarded Xiao Yao as an irreplaceable existence since he was a child, he longs for power, nothing more than to protect Xiao Yao, let her live well, and give Mu Ruohua left to him by his mother to Xiao Yao.
After Xuanxuan ascended the throne, he saw the old King Xuanyuan and Ah Nian playing chess, and Xiao Yao waved a fan on the side. He looked at the scene of his ancestors and grandchildren, and said to Lao Sang, this is the meaning of my whole world, I have to see it clearly, so that I can continue to move forward firmly.
But when Xuanxuan became the lord of the Great Wilderness, for the sake of power and love, he colluded with Tu Shanhou, poisoned Tu Shanjing, surrounded and suppressed the Hongjiang Righteous Army, and shot Xiang Liu. Power has lost its original intention, and he has drifted away from his promises.
In the finale, Xuanxuan's heart for Xiao Yao, the old King Xuanyuan seems to have seen through it, he asked Xuanxuan: "Every step of life is a trade-off after weighing the pros and cons, and now, there are two paths in front of you, one is to give up the throne and be with Xiao Yao." One is to give up Xiaoyao and continue to be the king of Xuanyuan, which path do you choose?
Xuanxuan doesn't want to face it, and she doesn't want to choose!
Because he thinks and thinks. I want the throne and I want to get Xiaoyao.
is like the first season of "Sauvignon Blanc", he said: "Xiao Yao deserves the best man in the world." But in the second season, he seemed to say, "I'm the best man in the world."
exploit
In the original book, a lot of words were used to describe Xuanxuan's inability to pursue power, and all his behaviors were rationalized, and it was precisely because of this that his beloved Xiao Yao was pushed to other men.
In order to pursue power, Xuanxuan's heart is like a mirror, he knows that Xiao Yao likes Tu Shanjing, he will tell Xiao Yao about his predicament and helplessness, and let Xiao Yao ask for money and materials for Tu Shanjing, who is rich and rivals the country and has a business all over the wilderness, and provide him with support and funding in order to achieve his goals.
In order to expand his sphere of influence, Xuanxuan saw that Feng Long was interested in Xiao Yao, and let Xiao Yao live in Chenrong Mansion, get close to Feng Long, and let Feng Long, the future patriarch of the Chishui clan, become his right-hand man and the most trusted confidant.
Xuanxuan is not only ruthless to Xiaoyao, he hates himself even more, in order to gain the support of the Central Plains, in order to dominate the world, he even married 9 concubines and two queens that he doesn't love.
He once said to Xiao Yao: "You have been in the wilderness for 300 years, and you have seen the darkness and ugliness, so I dare to spread myself out to show you, and I am not afraid to scare you, whether it is good or bad, you can understand and accept me." ”
Yes, Xiao Yao is willing to be used for Xuanxuan's sake. She can understand Xuanxuan's distress and his trade-offs, so she doesn't blame him.
But no, he gave his heart to Xuanxuan. Because she knows that in Xuanxuan's heart, there is always a better choice than a woman.
occupation
In the finale, Queen Xinyue was jealous of Xiao Yao, and gave Feng Yiying a dead soldier and asked her to kill Xiao Yao, but she didn't want to kill Tu Shanjing by mistake.
After Xiao Yao found out, the old King Xuanyuan asked Xuanxuan, if Xiao Yao insisted on killing Xinyue, would you agree?
Xuanxuan avoided and said: "His brother Feng Long saved me, I promised Feng Long to protect the dragon Xinyue from death, grandpa knows that the dragon Xinyue can't die, why bother asking this question?"
Next, the old King Xuanyuan asked the soul at the beginning of the article, and asked him whether to choose the throne or Xiaoyao?
Xuanxuan didn't want to face it, and even felt ridiculous, he said, the throne was originally won by Xiao Yao for me, why do you have to do it or the other?
Look, how selfish and greedy Xuanxuan is, he has been blinded by power, he relies on his position in Xiao Yao's heart, and knows that Xiao Yao is reluctant to embarrass him.
Is it too good for one person to become a disaster for oneself? Yes, Xuanxuan didn't think about Xiaoyao's feelings at all!
So much so that he himself believes that in the 300 years that Xiaoyao has been in the wilderness, and in the 500 years he has been with him, the love he keeps saying is true love. In fact, this is not the case, his love is dependence and possession, and it is caught in his own obsession.
He also wants to turn Xiao Yao into another woman in the Zijin Palace after he becomes stronger.
In Xuanxuan's harem, there are indeed many women he doesn't love, and he has been wronged and unwilling to do so. He thought that after he got the world, he would take it for granted that he wanted to marry the woman he loved and give Mu Ruohua to Xiaoyao.
He actually doesn't love Xiao Yao so much, Xiao Yao is the salvation of childhood, and the only reliance and reliance. It is also to hold each other tightly, tear each other, and imprison each other, just like a child holding a beloved toy, someone wants to grab it, and refuses to let go.
He even did not hesitate to kill Tu Shanjing and Xiang Liu, who loved Xiaoyao and were also loved by Xiaoyao, in order to get Xiaoyao.
What is true love? It's like Tu Shanjing, who is infatuated and single-minded in love. It's like Xiangliu, the forbearance and restraint of love. They are all willing to pay and sacrifice for Xiaoyao, and they care about the connection between their hearts, not whether they have it.
And Xuanxuan just wants to have, and only wants to care about what she feels in her heart.
Perhaps the most pertinent evaluation of Xuanxuan is that Shennong Xinyue said about Xuanxuan: "Isn't Your Majesty also insatiable and inch-inch?" When he didn't have a throne, he sent his beloved woman into the arms of other men, and when he got the throne, he regretted it and tried to take it for his own. ”
