There is no reliable reason to believe that Shakespeare wrote to the order of any monarch. There is an anecdote that Queen Elizabeth, after having seen Henry IV, asked Shakespeare to write a play about Falstaff in love, whereupon he wrote The Merry Wives of Windsor. This anecdote was first recorded in 1702 but if true it would not have been unheard of for a hundred years after the event. It is much more likely to be a romantic and fanciful fiction.
