So, the emperor was not trying to overcompensate at all.
Which, however, cannot be said about other people. Unfortunately, we can literally encounter folks at every step whose entire appearance or actions actually scream overcompensating. So today's selection of netizens' opinions really helps to recognize such people and also gives some ideas as to how to deal with them.
