在《大宋宫词》中，宋太宗赵光义对刘娥的厌恶源于他内心深处的不自信。尽管他已经成为皇帝，但他始终担心自己的篡位行为会被臣子们指责。尤其是当他的儿子赵元侃与刘娥之间产生了情愫时，他的心中更加焦虑，因为这可能会削弱他的统治基础。
赵光义之所以能够成为宋朝第二位皇帝，是因为他担心年幼的弟弟赵德芳继位后会发生“主少国疑”的乱局。他通过重用前朝旧臣和与大臣们建立联姻关系来巩固自己的地位。在电视剧中，赵光义承认自己杀害了开国皇帝赵匡胤，这一行为无疑增加了他篡权的嫌疑。
然而，历史上的真实情况如何，我们不得而知。《大宋宫词》中的故事仅供娱乐，不代表历史事实。Zhao Guangyi, the second emperor of Song Dynasty, became the ruler through a series of events that are still shrouded in mystery. His relationship with Liu Mei, a commoner woman, was strained due to his own insecurities and fears about losing power. The novel "The Palace" portrays Zhao Guangyi's complex character and his struggles to maintain his position as emperor.
