Mr. Lu Xun believes that "Dream of the Red Chamber" is a book of wisdom for people to live in the world, and the poem Lu Feng interprets the Dream of the Red Chamber from the perspective of human feelings and sophistication.
Text/Poetry Green Phoenix
Jia Xichun is an enigmatically important figure in "Dream of the Red Chamber", and some of her maverick places are puzzling.
For example, once in the palace flowers, she was still young and old-fashioned, did not love red dust, said what to become a nun, what to do with these flowers.
For example, she never had any interaction with her father, and her father did not show a trace of sadness after he was a queen of heaven.
There was little interaction with his brother Jia Zhen and his sister-in-law, and the only time he talked to You Shi was also a farewell talk, with the intention of drawing a clear line with these unclear people.
The young age is so old and precocious, to a large extent, related to the lack of family affection, and the father Jia Jing ran away from home very early.
Yes, to understand Xi Chun, you must understand her father, who is the closest person to Xi Chun and Jia Zhen's father, Jia Jing.
Cao Gong named Xi Chun's father Jia Jing, not without ridicule, with sneering sarcasm, the respect here is not the meaning of awe and respect, but means that he is not a good father worthy of respect.
Solving the mystery of why Jia Jing left home in his early years, we can see the reasons for Xi Chun's self-improvement and introverted personality.
To solve the mystery of Jia Jing's renunciation, it is necessary to start from Jia Jing's status, property, spouse, and children.
Antique dealer Leng Zixing said a passage when talking about Jia Fu to Jia Yu Village in a village tavern, which is of great reference value.
Zi Xing sighed, "I am talking about these two doors." Wait for me to tell you: On that day, The Duke of Ningguo and the Duke of Rongguo were two brothers of the same mother. Ning Gong lived for the eldest and gave birth to four sons. After the death of Duke Ning, Jia Daihua attacked the official, and also raised two sons: the long name Jia Shi, who died at the age of eight or nine, leaving only the second son Jia Jing to attack the official, and now he is blindly good, only love to burn Dan refining mercury, and the rest are not at heart. Fortunately, in his early years, he left a son, named Jia Zhen, because his father was bent on being a god, and let him attack the official. His father refused to return to his original hometown, and only talked to the Taoist monks outside the capital. This Zhenye gave birth to a son, who is only sixteen years old this year, named Jia Rong. Now respect the old father does not care. This Zhenye was willing to study there, but he only blindly enjoyed it, and turned the Ning Guo Mansion over, and no one dared to take care of him.
Leng Zixing's words basically summarized Jia Jing's life.
Jia Jing was the grandson of Jia Yan, the Duke of Ningguo, the second son of Jia Daihua, the second son of Jia Daihua, the second generation of Jia Fu's second-generation Jingying Jiedu envoy and hereditary first-class Shenwei general, the third generation of heirs of Jia Fu headed by the wen generation, and the father of Jia Zhen, jia Jing and Jia Zheng of Rongguo Province.
After the early death of Jia Jing's brother Jia Shi, Jia Jing inherited his brother's official position, and Jia Jing was the most prominent person in Jia Province, and the only person in Jia Province who was a high school student.
About what is a soldier and a person? Friends who study history are very clear.
Since Shi Lufeng does not use "Dream of the Red Chamber" as a history book to disassemble it, the purpose of Shi Lufeng's interpretation of "Dream of the Red Chamber" is to abandon the dross of history and refine the wisdom of "Dream of the Red Chamber" for use today.
Therefore, for these histories, readers only need to have a general understanding, know that the position of the officer is greater than that of the person, and the entrance examination is like reading a postdoctoral degree today. Don't put the cart before the horse!
Jia Jing's talent is so outstanding, he should have stood out in Jia Province, but he was destined to be indisputable to the world, indifferent to the world, ordained as a Taoist monk, bent on being a god, wanting to live forever, and letting his son Jia Zhen inherit the official position of General Shenwei.
Did Jia Jing really want to ask the Eight Classics of Immortals? not necessarily. However, in the Taoist Temple, he was "Hu Hong" with the Taoist monks all day, and because his cultivation mind was not pure, he wanted to live forever but had a short life, and died of eating too much dansha made by himself.
It is worth mentioning that Jia Jing, who has a talent but has wasted his life and does not care about the affairs of Jia Fu, after his death, Jia Mu, who is his contemporary, is crying bitterly and sad, if Jia Jing has no superiority or unspeakable bitterness to become a monk, then Jia Mu's performance is really strange.
It seems that Leng Zixing's words are not enough to be the basis for us to understand Jia Jing, and his words have moisture.
Jia Jing, a mysterious character, is worth exploring.
Jia Jing's first appearance, first seen in the tenth dream of the Red Chamber, daughter-in-law You Shi put her husband Jia Jing in her heart, worried about Jia Jing's birthday, and asked Jia Zhen: "The day after tomorrow is grandpa's birthday, what should I do?" ”
Taiye, this refers to Jia Jing.
You Shi asked Jia Zhen how to give your father a birthday. It seems that Ning Fu is Jia Zhen's decision.
Later, Jia Jingbintian was mentioned, Jia Jing's children and grandchildren, Jia Zhen Jia Rong, happened to be absent from home, and Jia Jing's funeral was completely handled by You Shi, which was handled extremely well, and even Jia Zhen "praised You Shi endlessly" afterwards.
You Shi is not without the talent of the family, but Jia Zhen has buried her talent.
Marriage is a corrosive agent, it will slowly erode you, twist you, You's marriage with Jia Zhen belongs to the wrong marriage, like an invisible killer, slowly consuming and destroying You's glorious life.
Xi Chun's father Jia Jing did not live in Ning Province with his children for a long time, and there was little communication between them very early, and The father-daughter relationship between Xi Chun and his father was very short, and Xi Chun's pity had a sense of regret, that is, here.
Jia Jing had hereditary property and status, and was also a man who knew a little about scriptures and ink. But as a widower, he didn't seem to value these floating cloud-like things outside his body, and he was far away from the red dust, as if he was escaping.
What kind of change caused him to be reluctant to live in the prosperous flower and willow land, rich and gentle township of Ning Province?
Speaking of Jia Jing leaving home to be with the Taoist priest Hu Chong, there is another person in the dream of the Red Chamber, Zhen Shiyin, who originally had a good life, but finally resolutely decided to leave home and make his debut, and "did not go home, and drifted away with the crazy Daoist."
The reasons why the two left home cannot be compared.
The reasons for the two to become Taoist monks are completely different in essence, Zhen Shiyin was forced to be helpless, he could not stay in his father-in-law's Fengsu family, there was no way to live, and he resolutely decided to stay away from the red dust and follow the lame Daoist to abandon his family and debut.
On the contrary, Jia Jing and Zhen Shiyin, Jia Jing is in the rich and gentle township of Jia Province, the glory and wealth have everything, and he even gave up the beauty of the world, and his renunciation is not to see through the red dust, which is really unbelievable.
Because Cao Gong's words are obscure, the reason for Jia Jing's debut cannot be seen literally, and there is only one reasonable explanation, that is, being trapped by love. Associated with a woman. Who is she, as for capturing Jia Jing's pretentious heart?
Xi Chun's mother, also like Jia Min, is everyone's bridesmaid, the widowed independent superman-like virtuous wife, died early, si people have been killed, Jia Jing for the first time felt the inner emptiness, long nights of loneliness are difficult to consume, the so-called love to the depths of people lonely, love to the end of the vicissitudes.
Throwing away the red dust for Xi Chun's mother is an important clue for Jia Jing's renunciation.
Choosing to become a monk, leaving ningguo mansion, a dirty place where even cats and dogs are not clean except for the two large stones in front of the door, it is Jia Jing's best choice to wholeheartedly pray for Dao cultivation immortals, forget the red dust, forget the right and wrong of the red dust, and forget the beloved.
Shi Lufeng said in the "Whispers Before the Opening lecture" in the "Poetry Green Phoenix Talks about the Dream of the Red Chamber 3rd Time" in the 15th part of the "Small Talk before the Lecture":
The Sixth Analects of Yongye says: "Above the middle person, you can also speak it; below the middle person, you can't say it." ”
This means that a person with the second realm can discuss the cognition of the third realm with him; and the person who is still in the first realm should not waste time discussing the cognition of the third realm with him, even if he says it, he cannot understand it, just like playing the piano to a cow.
Shi Lufeng believes that the reason why Jia Jing became a monk may have encountered the situation that Confucius said, and did not want to waste time to face people whose cognition of these realms was inferior to her.
As a result, Jia Jingxiao stayed away from the red dust and away from the right and wrong of Jia Fu, quietly ran away from home, did not want to let others disturb, and ended up at ease and spent the rest of his life without any worries.
Unfortunately, Jia Jing's original intentions were good, but after he became a monk, he was not devoted to cultivation, and his motives were not pure, and even in the view of violent death, it was in line with Cao Xueqin's sentence "It is really peaceful to start a provocation."
To provoke is to provoke trouble. Cao Xueqin intended to show that if the talented Jia Jing did not leave home, governed the Ningguo Mansion well, disciplined his children and grandchildren well, and did not leave everything to Jia Zhen, who was not a tool, to manage, the Ningguo Mansion would not be turned upside down by Jia Zhen, such as the Hula Building falling, the speed of decay, and the thought-provoking!
