Bo Shuo Hong Lou: Xiang Ling's Fate Course

Compared with several literary masterpieces, A Dream of Red Mansions is a vernacular Chinese. As far as writing is concerned, it is closer to life and better than Strange Tales from a Lonely Studio, Romance of the Three Kingdoms, The Journey to the West and Water Margin.

However, many people say that they don't like reading A Dream of Red Mansions mainly because the story is too verbose, the relationship between characters is very complicated and it is quite big to read. This kind of dyslexia does exist, and it needs patience to eliminate it.

First of all, clarify the relationship between characters and interests; Otherwise, we can't distinguish the truth, meaning and weight of the characters' language, determine the characters' personality characteristics, and understand the author's writing trend. Secondly, grasp the narrative lines of the story theme.

There are more than n clues in the story of the Red Mansion.

In addition to the popular lines such as the rise and fall of four big families, the love and marriage of Baochai Triangle, the fate of twelve women in Jinling, the witness of Grandma Liu, and the Nanming history associated with Miaoyu and Xue Baoqin, the image and fate of Xiangling and others are also very important.

Thirdly, A Dream of Red Mansions contains the strong logical implication of the origin and evolution of Chinese civilization and even human civilization, as well as the development law of China's history and culture. Therefore, we must understand the basic characteristics of China's history and culture in order to understand the author's purpose of blood and tears.

Therefore, Xiangling's fate and image characteristics are closely related to the theme of A Dream of Red Mansions. Xiangling's fate and image characteristics are related to the following questions:

1, Xiangling is one of the earliest programmatic figures in A Dream of Red Mansions, which runs through the first eighty chapters.

2. Several solar terms, festivals, time series, years, etc. mentioned by Xiangling for the first time have many meanings. Bei, a redology researcher and textual researcher, believes that the time and place of preface is related to the rise and fall of Nanming. The background of the times determined by a piano work and the image of Xue Baoqin have also been broken here.

3. When discussing Miaoyu, make sure Miaoyu becomes a monk, which is the beginning of the decisive battle between Nanming and Qing court. Miaoyu first practiced in the south of Gusu called Pan Xiang Temple, which was the name of Xue Ling and his wife.

4. Zhou Rui's family has long said that Xiangling's description is similar to that of Qin Keqing. Zhou Rui's evaluation of Xiangling is worth pondering. In fact, Xiangling is not only similar to Qin; Her fate changes and ends, and there are many similarities with the beauty of the Red Chamber. She is another Chai Dai complex besides Qin Dynasty.

5. Every time Xiangling appears, it will inevitably involve great fluctuations in the story; It's not over until the last death, eighty times. This is the layout feature of A Dream of Red Mansions and the author's ingenuity.

6. As soon as Lenovo Xiangling appeared, Xiangtou monk cried and said to Zhen, "What are you doing holding this lifeless thing in your arms that involves your parents?" Get up for me. " . The words "life is unlucky, parents are implicated" can reflect the similar fate of beauty in the red chamber.

Xiangling is the wedge of the story of A Dream of Red Mansions.

As far as fate and image characteristics are concerned, Xiangling is a typical image of persecuted women in ancient China, which is universal. Xiangling is a representative of young women who have suffered many disasters in troubled times and are regarded as commodities and slaves with others. Xiangling judged that she was really injured in her life, which was what she meant.

Xiangling, Zhen, the daughter of Xiangguan Town who made her first appearance, was only three years old when she made her first appearance. About two years later, Lian Ying was abducted by traffickers, about five years old.

Xiangling, about twelve or thirteen years old after 1978, was first sold by a kidnapper to Feng Yuan, the son of Feng family. The kidnappers privately sold it to the Xue family for more money. After the incident, Feng and Xue were both important figures. The Xue family was powerful, and the master Xue Pan instigated the slaves to kill Feng Yuan, and they won in a row.

The case reached Jia Yucun's desk, and the winning streak was awarded to Xue Family by Jia Yucun. Xue Jia's daughter Chai was given the name Xiangling; Later, she was forced to be a concubine by Master Xue Pan.

One of Cao Xueqin's greatest kung fu skills is the use of puns and homophones. Zhen's homonym is really pitiful. Literally, Xiangling's fate is clear at a glance. The monk said that Xiangling was something with life but no luck, involving her parents; It seems that when she was born, she was doomed to be troubled.

Second, what is destiny? The Evolution of Xiangling's Life and Fate

Xiangling's father, Zhen, was originally a township official in Gusu.

Mr. and Mrs. Zhen Shi only got this girl named Lian Ying in their 500 s. Smart, with a beauty spot on her brow, winning streak is the apple of Zhen Shi's eye, but on the night of Lantern Festival, she was lost by her careless servant Hodge while enjoying the lanterns.

Huo was in trouble; The disaster of winning in a row began. Under the secret background of A Dream of Red Mansions, the whole area of Gusu in the southeast of China was plunged into the apocalyptic war.

Lianying was raised by a kidnapper in 1978, and was originally bought by Feng Yuan, a scholar with a good family. The Feng family should be a well-off family, with fields, property and servants. It is said that this is also the end of the unjust winning streak.

Since seeing the winning streak, Feng Yuan has made up his mind to change his previous hobby of men's clothing style and has a good impression on beautiful women. A clever young genius is worthy of winning in a row.

The kidnapper secretly transferred her to Xue's house. In order to win in a row, Xue Pan bullied the weak and killed Feng Yuan. When the case reached Jia Yucun's desk, the readers had a glimmer of hope for him. The Zhen family was Jia Yucun's benefactor.

Seven or eight years ago, when Jia Yucun was forced to fall, he asked people all over the world to look up with great ambition. Pity for the poor, I generously gave him fifty taels of silver to help him take the exam in Beijing. Jia Yucun became a top official, but was later dismissed for some reason and went to Gusu area, where he went to Fu Lin to tutor Daiyu.

Later, Lin Ruhai, the father of Daiyu, recommended Jia Yucun to his brother-in-law, Jia Zheng, and was recommended by Jia Zheng as the magistrate of Kyoto. Jia Yucun took over winning cases as soon as he took office.

Jia Yucun listened to the insider's advice and considered the relationship between Xue Jia and Jia Fu. After some hidden rules of officialdom, Lian Win was finally awarded to the Xue family.

It is said that Xue Jia is rich and deserves a winning streak. However, Xue Pan, the master of the Xue family, was alive, and he failed to jump out of the misery after winning in a row. Later, when he entered Jia Fu, Jia Lian complained that Xiangling was unfair.

Cao Xueqin is not a Facebook writer.

Although Xue Pan is a terrible person, his incompetence and ignorance are precisely his sincerity, which makes him do some unexpected good things.

For the tenth time, it is obvious that Xue Pan's home for child molesters, Jin Rong, has been taken care of. Marginal prostitutes and Jianghu people who are closely related to Xue Pan get along well with him. Once he suddenly became acquainted with his mother, Baochai and Xiangling, which made them smile and feel very comfortable.

Before Xue Pan was officially married, Xiangling was the daughter-in-law, daughter-in-law and servant girl of the Xue family. The book inadvertently revealed many times that Xiangling's life experience and feelings depend on Xue Pan.

With such a family background and temperament, Xue Pan naturally treats the girls of the lower classes as playthings and never treats a bought girl as a human being. Although the Xue family is as rich as enemies, it is a pity to take Xiangling's lotus as the quality.

Xue Pan molested Liu Xianglian, but was reprimanded. He seems to realize that his family business is not easy. Determined to do business in the south.

At this time, Xiangling ushered in the best period of her life. She followed Baochai into the Grand View Garden, which coincided with the beauty of the Red Chamber.

Xiangling wore a beautiful pomegranate skirt, learned to write poems from Chai Dai and joined the poetry club, which showed her extraordinary genius. Then, Bao Qin and others fled from the south to Jiafu for refuge; They are still studying together.

It happened that the good times did not last long.

The crisis of the Grand View Garden is coming. The Xue family moved out of Jia Fu and married Xia Jingui, the daughter of Guihua Xia family in Beijing, for Xue Pan. Xia Jingui happened to be a jealous woman from a nouveau riche family.

Xiangling became the concubine of Xue Pan and the servant of Xia Jingui, a jealous grandmother. Xia Jingui and Xue's mother and daughter fought everywhere, and even Xiangling's name became a crime and was changed to Qiu Ling.

Men in the world may not understand the mentality of women when they are jealous Once an evil woman is jealous, her life is in jeopardy. Cao Xueqin calmly regards women's unique jealousy as human nature.

However, in China society, there are Confucian teachers who provide rampant rules and performance stage for human jealousy. The Confucian classic Zuo Zhuan records:

There are ten days in the sky and ten people on earth. In all things, God is supreme;

Therefore, Wang Chaochen, courtiers and doctors, doctors and ministers;

Scholars and ministers, ministers and officials, officials and officials, officials and officials, officials and servants, servants and officials.

Look! Such a strict hierarchy has been clearly divided, so there is a "minister", which is transformed into an ox classic in which the monarch is the minister, the father is the son, and the husband is the wife.

I will climb these iron walls unless I smash the world and get back together.

The Confucian Classic of Cattle clearly states that servants must obey their masters, wives must obey their husbands, and concubines must obey their ex-wives. At the end of 1980s, Taoist Wang played a joke on jealous women, which made it more clear: under the hierarchy of Confucius and Mencius, there is no cure for jealousy in the world of mortals; Only when a woman is dead will she not be jealous.

What can Taoism do when Confucian teachers flatter Japan? Don't misunderstand the author's kindness. Baoyu was really worried about Xiangling in this trip, so he went to Wang Daochang to cure Xiangling's jealousy.

There is no medicine for jealousy in the world, so Xiangling's fate is extremely tragic.

The appearance of Xia Jingui marked the end of Xiangling's life. Although there is no specific ending of Xiangling in the first eighty chapters, judging from the verdict, Xiangling should have been tortured and died by Xue Pan and Xia Jingui: since then, there has been a solitary tree in the two places, causing Xiangling's soul to return to her hometown.

This is the tragic fate of Xiangling's parents, Zhen, who was a rich boy above the well-off family in Gusu. And Confucian sages just call it: destiny.

Third, the symptoms of Xiangling

Disease is the impermanence of life for the ancient China people with blank science and technology. Xiangling was originally sick: Chinese medicine called dried blood.

This topic is very painful, but I have to say: many women in the red chamber have symptoms. Needless to say, Daiyu has been taking medicine since she could eat.

Baochai, whose surface is rich and glittering, is naturally hot and poisonous. Sister Qiao, the daughter of Xifeng, is often ill. Another time I was seriously ill, as terminal as smallpox. Unmarried women are so abnormal, especially after marriage. Qin Keqing, Xifeng, Pinger, etc. It seems that they all suffer from serious gynecological diseases.

The above characters are all aristocratic women with medical conditions at home. Xiangling is a girl who was abducted in her early years and later bought to be a servant and concubine; A lonely person who is unloved after being a concubine can't resist the intrusion of disease.

In the eighties, Xiangling was tortured by Xia Jingui and Xue Pan, bent on cutting off the road ahead and left with Baochai. Even so, I still can't help but feel sorry for the moon and sigh; Originally timid, although she was in Xue Pan's room for several years, she was not pregnant because of the illness of Xuedian. It is also accompanied by qi injury and internal and external setbacks, which actually leads to a kind of blood deficiency.

The so-called cowardice means that Xiangling was abducted from childhood and nobody loved her. Poor food and clothing led to weakness and qi deficiency. The so-called blood points are sick, that is, the meridians of women are not adjusted well; Irregular blood flow naturally makes it difficult to get pregnant; Usually in a bad mood, weak will, looks very dull.

Xiangling's performance is indeed so; So every time he was pitied by people from all walks of life in Jia's house, Baoyu felt infinite emotion. The specific plot is in the sixty-second chapter: falling in love with Xiangling.

Baoyu's affection for Xiangling comes from his sympathy and love for Xiangling. Xiangling is really cared for by men for the first time in her life. Baoyu's affection for Xiangling has nothing to do with love. It is gossip to say that Baoyu and Xiangling are in love with each other.

Xiangling has suffered so much that she doesn't care about her illness.

A girl who has been trafficked since she was a child cannot live a normal life. The kidnapper raised her for profit; Just sensible, will be sold to others as servants and concubines, how can there be a trace of contentment. Such a girl's blood, personnel and physique can't be normal and healthy.

Xiangling has few other elegant expectations except instinct. The kidnapper sold her to Feng Yuan, but she sighed at the end of sin. I just want to jump out of my misery and live a normal woman's life. How dare I expect too much?

According to ancient medical classics in China, women's amenorrhea is caused by blood dryness, which is mostly caused by five births. The so-called "five pains" are the loss of emotions and the damage of five internal organs.

Specifically, the source of Xiangling's blood disease is mental shock caused by poor living conditions or poor living environment.

Xiangling was enslaved and tortured by the so-called husband and master in her adult life, and later she was repeatedly hostile and abused by the wife of the General Affairs Office under totalitarianism. It is easy to suffer from this kind of xerosis, which is equivalent to a gynecological terminal disease.

In normal life, it seems that the so-called adoptive father and husband Xue Pan lack humanity, and it is inevitable that they are always strong, considerate and concerned, let alone.

Coupled with Xue Pan's abnormal temperament, he became an animal on a whim. These factors are the specific factors that lead Xiangling to suffer from this gynecological terminal disease.

In the end, Tang Huo's wife, Xia Jingui, became a fierce and jealous woman, and Xiangling's last hope of being a servant and concubine for stability was completely shattered.

In the first eighty chapters, although Xiangling's life did not have a clear ending, it can be inferred from the judgment that congenital diseases and acquired torture directly led to Xiangling's death.

Xiangling, before she died, should be like Qingwen, shouting Niang in her mouth; She finally returned to her hometown on the other side of the globe and met her relatives who had a little impression since childhood.

Xiangling's symptoms of dry blood are very similar to those of Qin Keqing before her death: both of them were hit by strain caused by strong stimulation from the external environment. This is just an internal cause.

There is also a very important external cause that led to their tragic fate, that is, the disaster of the dynasty replacement war that has been repeated in the history of China.

Cao Xueqin's writing about the recurring war disasters brought about by the change of dynasties is very obscure. Readers may not be able to understand it carefully and deeply. The first time you enter the door, you need to chew it carefully.

Xiangling's abduction and a series of misfortunes and disasters suffered by the Zhen family are actually all kinds of chaos that have occurred frequently when the war in the north has started and the Gusu area in the south of the Yangtze River is in danger.

If we follow this idea and sort it out step by step, the truth of the root cause of the tragedy in the Red Chamber will be more clear.
