Fun Kan Red House 291: Ordered to enter the palace, the Zhen family is brilliant three misses, watching out for each other, Jia Mu praises the second girl
However, it was said that after the Zhen family in Jiangnan was ordered to enter Beijing, it was too late to visit the Jia family, and immediately entered the palace to ask for peace. So the special men sent gifts, and four more women came in to greet them.
Jia Mu received the four women of the Zhen family with the highest specifications. Gossip about the Zhen family's entry into Beijing, it is easy to know that it is related to the seriously ill old lady.
The old lady concubine is most likely from the Zhen family, and the Zhen family is also rich and dependent on the old lady.
Jia Mu asked, "Are all the family members here?" The four replied, "The old lady and her brother, the two young ladies and the other wives did not come, but only the wife brought three girls." Jia Mu said, "Is there anyone who doesn't have any family?" The four said, "Not yet." Jia Mu smiled and said, "Your eldest girl and second girl are very good to our family." The four laughed and said, "Exactly." Every year the girls have a letter back saying that it is all due to the care of the government. Jia Mu smiled and said, "What kind of care, it was originally a family friend, and it was an old relative, and it should have been." You two girls are better and less self-respecting, so that's why we're intimate. The four laughed and said, "This is the old lady being too modest." ”
The amount of information in this passage between Jia Mu and the four people is extremely large, and if you contact the clues before and after, you will find that there is an amazing foreshadowing
First of all, the Zhen family is also the configuration of the old lady, brother and lady, similar to the Jia family.
Among them, "brother" refers to Zhen Baoyu. This time I did not enter Beijing. When he came, it was useless and he could not enter the palace. Second, the old lady was reluctant to do so.
Secondly, the Zhen family's miss was one more than the Jia family, a total of five people. The eldest girl and the second girl married to the capital, and now the third girl is the head, and there are two young ladies in the family.
In fact, the Jia family is also five young ladies, Si Chun and adopted daughter Lin Daiyu. Lin Daiyu was adopted, which can be regarded as the daughter of the Jia family, not a guest residence.
Moreover, the third girl of the Zhen family entered the palace with her mother in Beijing, which showed that the status in the Zhen family was not as simple as "being the leader". The third girl of the Zhen family is undoubtedly an extremely powerful figure.
Here Jia Tanchun had just been ordered to be a housekeeper, and there came a powerful third girl of the Zhen family. It is certain that the Zhen family and the Jia family are related to each other.
"Dream of the Red Chamber" begins with the principle of "when it is false and true, and there is nowhere to do anything" as the program.
Zhen Shiyin and Jia Yu Village came out first in the opening scene. Then lead to the Zhen family in Jiangnan and the Jia family in the capital. When Yuan Chun was promoted to Concubine Xiande, he had the family of Wu Guifei's father, Wu Tianyou. It corresponds exactly to the program of the opening chapter. Switching between "true and false, with or without" refers to the rise and fall of "one family".
Of course, regarding the Zhen family in Jiangnan, because of the "Holy Ancestor Visiting Shun Tour" said by Wang Xifeng on that day, plus the story of Cao Xueqin and Jiang Ning weaving the Cao family, it is considered by the New Hongxue to be the Cao family, including the Jia family is also known as the Cao family story.
In fact, reading through "Dream of the Red Chamber" will find that Cao Xueqin has set up a lot of clues, far more than "Saint Zu visiting Shun Tour", according to which it is not appropriate to conclude that the Cao family in Jiangnan is not appropriate.
The setting of Nanjing and Beijing undoubtedly borrowed from the Ming Dynasty.
Nanjing has the Ningguo Mansion and the Rongguo Mansion, and the capital has the characteristics of the era of the Rongguo Mansion and the Ningguo Mansion, as well as the characteristics of the era when the Second Duke of Ningrong built a meritorious career one generation later than the Lin family. "Dream of the Red Chamber" is clearly the story of Zhu Di after the Ming Dynasty's Battle of Jingnan, Zhu Di seized the throne of his nephew Zhu Yunjiao, and then moved the capital to Beijing.
At that time, the city of Beijing was built by Yao Guangxiao, but not all of them. The city of Nanjing was even more empty, leaving behind an empty imperial palace and a government palace.
Ying Tianfu and Nanjing are titles that only the Ming Dynasty has!
But it is not right to say that it is a Ming Dynasty story. Emperor Taishang abdicated, the emperor ascended the throne, and Prince Yizhong's old Chitose "bad thing" clearly borrowed the story of the change of Xuanwu Gate.
And Jia Yuanchun", "the tiger meets the big dream", the Jia family is raided, and it is clear that it is the story of the change of Ma Songyi...
So, don't make a historical stereotype for "Dream of the Red Chamber"! There are many more stories in it, and since it has nothing to do with this article, let's leave it alone.
Zhen Baoyu and Jia Baoyu are exactly the same, as we will talk about later. Here we can first talk about the meaning of two "treasure jade".
The so-called "true and false" is actually an orthodox metaphor. The author believes that Nanjing is orthodox and "true", and Beijing is usurping the throne is "false". This refers to the story of the Battle of Jingnan.
The "fake" in Beijing is also divided into two, the long house has no queen, the second room is in charge, and it is also an innuendo of the Ming Dynasty's Zhengde Emperor Wuhou and the Jiajing (Jia Jing) Emperor "Xiaozong into The Great Sect" but died at the hands of the Qing Dynasty.
Therefore, not only is Jia Jing of Ningguo Mansion an adopted son, but the second room of Rong Guo Mansion must also be in charge.
As for whether nanjing represents the "prosperity" of the Ming Dynasty is true, and whether Beijing represents the "death" of the Ming Dynasty is false. Now that the Ming Dynasty is dead and the Qing Dynasty is revived, the Qing Dynasty in Beijing is still "fake", that is, borrowing the Zhen family and the Jia family to innuendo.
Later, the Zhen family first raided the house, representing the Battle of Jingnan. The Jia family raided the house again, representing the ming dynasty. It is the subtext and satire of the author, and does not need to be studied too deeply. Just know.
As for what jia family is "royal", it is even more illusory, but it represents the carrier of "rise and fall". After all, the dynasty died, and the courtiers and families died first. It's all metaphorical foreshadowing. That's what it means.
"Dream of the Red Chamber" uses this kind of "true and false existence", which not only says the essence of the rise and fall of the family, but also talks about the change of the Ming Dynasty and the Qing Dynasty. In particular, the Ming Dynasty twice "small sects into large sects" were written very clearly.
When Leng Zixing gave a speech on rongguofu, he said that everyone else was born, and only Jia Daihua's two sons, Jia Shi and Jia Jing, used "yang", which was to suggest that Jia Jing was an adopted son. Not much more.
Explaining the embodiment of the "Zhen family and the Jia family", we will go back to the last point, the second girl of the Zhen family who was praised by Jia Mu.
Finally, who is the second girl of the Zhen family?
Jia Mu and the four women of the Zhen family were polite, saying that they were good with the eldest girl and the second girl of the Zhen family, which meant that they had a close relationship with their husband's family.
Of course, the women of the Zhen family should be polite, saying that every time the girls write back, they must say that they have to be taken care of by Jia Fu in the capital. That's a kind word, even if they say where they know. Women who can do things, people are rarely sophisticated.
Jia Mu also knew it clearly, and said that Ben was an old relative, and they should take care of each other. This is also a pun on the author's words. One layer of meaning is compared with the "orthodox" thing mentioned above, and the other layer of meaning is that the two families are relatives.
"Old relatives" represent relatives long ago, certainly not in-laws after Jia Mu, and even the two sides did not really marry, but like the relationship between the Lin family and the Shi family.
However, Jia Mu then mentioned that the second girl of the Zhen family was incredible. She said, "You two girls are better and less self-respecting, so that's why we get close." ”
Jia Mu was the Lady of the Rongguo Gong, and the only ones who could be proud and arrogant in front of her were the harem concubines, but the princesses.
Jia Mu mentioned the second girl of the Zhen family and used the word "home", which can be sure that the second girl of the Zhen family is a princess.
At that time, the only princes who appeared were the King of Northern Jing and the Prince of Zhongshun. The Jia family never had contact with Prince Zhongshun. Among the four kings, only the King of Northern Jing is still the King of the County, and the other kings of the South An County, only the princess is still alive, and the children and grandchildren are no longer the princes.
The second girl of the Zhen family, who made Jia Mu praised, was the Princess of Beijing in all likelihood!
The King of Northern Jing was extremely close to the Jia family. Qin Keqing personally attended the funeral, and before the New Year, he personally sent someone to send the Spring Festival, and he and Jia Baoyu had frequent exchanges. It is exactly in response to the characteristics of Jia Mu's "good relationship, do not take big".
However, Junji Yakan Believes that the King of Northern Jing is not a "good man", and his co-optation and inducement of the Jia family eventually leads to the Jia family being raided.
At Qin Keqing's funeral, if the King of Northern Jing did not attend illegally, the emperor would not pay attention to and be wary of the Jia family.
If it were not for the King of Beijing who co-opted the Jia family to form a party, the author wrote that he used the wagtail incense rosary beads and the Qianxiangluo Khan towel as a foreshadowing to "trap" the Jia family, and the emperor would not have worried about the Jia family's misdeeds and raided the family, and there would have been no accident similar to the change of Ma Songyi.
Therefore, the so-called "lack of self-esteem and arrogance" of the second lady of the Zhen family of Princess Zhen of Beijing is mostly a superficial show, and the purpose is to enlist the arrogant and arrogant Jia family.
As soon as the old lady died, the emperor first copied the Zhen family in Jiangnan, which was undoubtedly also to frighten the King of Northern Jing, and will be said later.
Also said that the second girl of the Zhen family. Since Cao Xueqin wrote that the three girls of the Zhen family were very extraordinary, she followed her wife into the palace in Beijing, corresponding to the third girl of the Jia family, Jia Tanchun. Then, the second girl of the Zhen family undoubtedly compared with the second girl of the Jia family, Jia Yingchun.
However, the second girl of the Zhen family corresponds to Yingchun, not referring to her ability. It is an allusion to the "wolf of the mountain".
After Jia Yingchun was later married to Sun Shaozu by his father Jia Shu, he was tortured to death less than a year later.
Sun Shaozu is called "Zhongshan Wolf", which is the story of Mr. Dongguo and the wolf. Mr. DongGuo was kind to the wolf but was revenge. Sun Shaozu is a wolf, and Jia Yu is Mr. Dongguo.
Yingchun's son-in-law is Zhongshan Wolf, the second girl of the Zhen family corresponds to Jia Yingchun, and her husband, the King of Beijing, is also a Zhongshan Wolf. The Jia family is Mr. Na Dong Guo, and the Jia family is eventually pulled into the water by the ungrateful step by step of the ambitious King of Northern Jing.
Therefore, the small talk between Jia Mu and the four women of the Zhen family was extremely frightening. Clues need to be correlated before they can finally be understood.
Below we will talk about Zhen Baoyu again, to know what happens next, and see the next decomposition!
Welcome to pay attention to the author, like, collection, "Fun Kan Red Chamber" series of articles once a day, will continue to update for you!
