"Dream of the Red Chamber" begins with an introduction to the glory of Jia Province, ningguo mansion and Rongguo mansion once made great military achievements, because of the merits of the dragon was crowned as the duke. The famous saying in the book was founded eight princes, the Jia Fu brothers occupied two seats in the year that they were not written out, the two brothers were very favored, how spirited they should be, and how powerful they were.
(1) Marriage: one is prosperous and one is lost
In order to maintain the prosperity of his family, not the short-lived wealth. Jia Fu chose the most secure way, that is, through marriage, expand his rights, bind others, and connect feelings with interests. That's why there will be Jia, Wang, Shi, and Xue.
The marriage of these four people can not only communicate with each other, but also be very dangerous, one is prosperous and one is lost.
However, after the death of the elders, there were no new people in Jia Fu who could perceive the intentions, and there was no one in front of the imperial court, which proved that Jia Fu had gradually left the circle of the center.
The highest official position in Jia Fu was Jia Zheng, but he was just a worker from Wupin, who not only had no real power, but was also a Qingshui Yamen.
As the eldest sons of Rong Guofu and NingguoFu, Jia Yu and Jia Zhen inherited the title by virtue of their father's blessing. However, in the book, the two people do not have any positions of real power, and rely only on in-laws.
(2) Successor incompetents
According to the situation in Jia Province, the Jia family has begun to fall. If there is no one who can support the Jia Fu court, it is only a matter of time before the Jia Fu falls.
Jia Fu also has a descendant, that is, Jia Zhu, but Jia Zhu died early, Jia Baoyuzhi is not here, Jia Lian only wants to accumulate wealth, Jia Lan is too young. Counting the descendants of the Jia family, there is no one who can get his hands on it.
Such a Jia family has changed from a hero to a moth. Not only can it not bring benefits to the country, but it is also harming the interests of the country for its own interests.
In many places in the book, it is described that the Jia family used their personal connections to do a lot of things that could not be put on the table.
Jia Yucun was deposed, Lin Ruhai wrote a letter to Jia Zheng, and then Jia Yucun became the prefect of Yingtianfu. In order to repay the peach, Jia Yucun released Xue Pan, who killed the person, and let the Shi Duzi family die for the fan.
Peeping leopard in the tube, it can be seen. No superior person is allowed to have such subordinates within his jurisdiction. The decline of the Jia family is because in order to expand their own power, they have hurt the people's hearts.
There is also a vague description in the book, that is, before jia fu inspected the Grand View Garden, the Zhen family in Jiangnan suddenly came to the news that the family had been raided.
Compared with the Zhen family, the Jia family can only be regarded as an upstart. Moreover, the Jia family and the Zhen family are also related, and even entrust gold and silver to the Jia family.
The only contrast between the Jia family and the Zhen family is not because there is a son named Baoyu in the family, but because both families have spent gold and silver like water because of the driving.
I have always believed that the noble concubines are a conspiracy, and with supreme glory, it can be seen whether it is really the ten-year Qing prefect, million snowflake silver.
If it were not for that glory, it would not reveal the wealth that the family had accumulated over the years. Brocade night walk, although not so painful, but safe.
The Zhen family has taken over the car four times, and it is difficult not to make people think about where this money comes from. The noble concubines of the Jia family should refuse, for the sake of temporary glory, there will be endless troubles.
After all, corrupt officials are normal, you can covet gold and silver, but you can't covet imperial power.
(3) The real glory is only a hundred years
And the Jia family united the four major families, as well as the King of Northern Jing, who was close to the Jia family, no longer wanted the wealth in front of them, but surrendered to the next emperor.
Such behavior was the last thing the emperor wanted to see. And Jha Fu did. So after consuming the emperor's last bit of old feelings, Jia Fu began to lose.
Jia Fu was the first to lose was Ning GuoFu, Jia Zhen was exiled, this is actually a signal, as long as it converges, you can be released a yard. However, such a signal made Jia Fu speed up his pace, not only did not retreat, but on the contrary, he took a step closer. He even took the personal connections of Princess Nan'an, and in order to please, he let Jia Tanchun marry overseas.
Jia Fu was already crumbling, at this time Jia Mu finally died, the old people had died, the old feelings were exhausted, and after Jia Mu's funeral, the Jia family was taken into custody.
Carefully calculated, the glory of Jia Fu is only four generations, and the real glory is only a hundred years.
In ancient times, there were many such families, and they all seemed to have forgotten the most important point, that what could maintain wealth and glory was not to make the superiors jealous of you, but to become the mainstay of the people's hearts.
The fall of Jia Fu was to be expected.
