Lip critic pointed out that Baoyu is the author's "self-yu", seeing the first eighty times of the text, Baoyu is red and green, brocade and jade food, wealth and honor, and thousands of pampered in one, it will take it for granted that the author has experienced a luxurious life for a long time, even if the final prosperity is over, upside down, the beauty of the past is enough to offset all this, but this is actually a misreading of the text.
The text begins at the end of the "hot days" (lipogram), so the text is actually an apocalyptic lament. However, the text is presented in a dreamlike form, and the time in the illusion breaks the boundaries of conventional physical time, merging the past, present, and future[Note 1], making the text look like the "Fable of the Ninety Spring Light" (fat batch), and Baoyu thus travels through the most prosperous period of the "Ninety Spring Light" in the illusion.
"Born in the last days of the fortune of the partial dissipation" (TanChun's sentence, the fat criticism points out "exclamation sentence, self-contained." The author, obviously not this lucky, he is only a sad melody in the saddest final song of this lament, and what he experiences is only the prosperity of the dream, as the fifth lipogram points out: "The author of the cover is from the clouds, and what he has experienced is nothing more than a dream in the Red Chamber." ”
Therefore, it can be said that the author stood at this moment when the so-called stone of the last days stood under the mortal, took this as the center of time, and looked back at the turbulent ninety years of history. But the author "has the heart of a bodhisattva" (fat batch), he surpassed the tragedy of Baoyu's life, and pointed out the way out for all sentient beings to enter the land of ease and self-sufficiency.
The twenty-second lipogram pointed out: "If Xue and Lin are made to zhen yu and Jia Yu, they will not lose the purpose of the writer." Jia Baoyu, who should be seen as Daiyu [Note 2], has more connotations of home country politics, he once fell into the "Daiyu" of home country politics, obsessed with not waking up, but in the end when he woke up, he chose to jump out of the red dust and become a "love monk", not the four are empty, but born with the heart of entering the world, there are Buddhas in his heart, there are all the people, compassion for people, that is, Jia Baoyu's symbol "Spiritual Treasure Jade" metaphorically "to remove evil spirits, cure wrongs, and know misfortunes and blessings"; Zhen Baoyu, who should be Bao Chao [Note 2], has more meanings of worldly life, and in the end is more like " The treasure treasure of the "Crystal Snow of The Mountain Gaoshi" is to enter the world with the heart of birth, not for material constraints, not for kitsch, but for its own high grid, which can be called the realm of "cold incense pills" [Note 3].
Lipogram pointed out: "In the Tongbu, under the guise of leper monks and lame monks, it is pointed out that there are several people in the sea of psychedelic illusions." Jia Baoyu's "Psychic Treasure Jade" and Xue Baochao's Jin Yongluo, "Leng Xiang Pill" prescriptions and medicinal primers are all related to the Erxian and Tai Illusion Realm. The meaning of "Psychic Treasure Jade" is similar to the effect of "Cold Incense Pill", and it is also similar to the meaning of the Too Illusory Realm. Therefore, the two treasures are "a pair"[note 4]; the realm of wisdom attained by Zhen and Jia Baoyu is actually the same, and this realm is the "unsentimental" that The Fat Critic points out.
The first time, when the main text introduces Zhen Shiyin's "temperament is idyllic, and he does not remember the name of merit", Li Pi pointed out: "Since he is the emperor of Xi, he can be the age of the dynasty of books." The meaning of Emperor Xi is taikoo. Xi Huang, refers to the Fu Xi clan. The ancients imagined that the people before Fuxi were carefree and lived a leisurely life. Jin Taoqian's "Book of Youzi And Others": "It is often said that in the middle of May and June, the north window is lying down, and when the cool breeze temporarily arrives, he claims to be the emperor of Xi. As the true lifeblood of "eliminating evil spirits, curing wrongs, and knowing misfortunes and blessings" that Zhen and Jia Baoyu finally found, "unsentimentality" is similar to the realm of emperor Xi Huangren, and can also be said to be the "door" of the self-salvation wisdom of all dreamers.
The twenty-first time, "The Sage Attacks the People and The Zhen Zhen Bao Yu", the fat criticism pointed out: "It can be seen that Yu Qing is a naïve and messy person!" The so-called stupid boy near the past, also known as the 'old good man' and 'heartless Daoist' is also! As everyone knows, shanggu chunfeng". Therefore, it can be said that Baoyu's nature carries the simple genes of the ancient people, which is the Hui root that he finally reached the realm of "unsympathetic".
The text of the Red Chamber of "Zhen Shiyin", which is performed with "Jia YuCun Dialect", presents only the front of the Fengyue Treasure Book of "Great Purpose and Love" to the reader. Before the end of the story, the so-called Baoyu "love" that appeared from the "world's will" (fat batch) was actually the germ of Baoyu's "unsentiment" that eventually related to the "too illusory realm" through the way of "love" enlightenment, and the twenty-second lipogram also pointed out: "Baoyu Enlightenment Zen is also by love, reading is also by love, and reading "Zhuang" is also by love." ”
The seventy-first time Baoyu advised Tanchun not to always listen to those sayings, think about those mundane things, just worry about the prosperity and honor, it seems that Baoyu "has no worries", in fact, at least in the seventieth time, Baoyu, who was the former noble attendant of the god Ying, has seen through the inability to end. After Baoyu read "Peach Blossom Line", he did not praise it, but shed tears, and Fat Critic pointed out that Brother Yu's tears were not easy to have. Baoyu's superficial carefree is actually paving the way for the future of "unsentimentality".
In the last days that do not belong to him, the author has experienced a life that most people cannot experience, coupled with the endowment he has, he has a profound understanding of the tragic nature of life that is far beyond ordinary people, so he is in a dilemma between the difficulty of entering the world and the difficulty of being born, so the author's "self-contained" (fat batch), Baoyu has two One-by-one Jia Baoyu who was born and Zhen Baoyu who entered the world.
The seemingly contradictory two treasures are the true presentation of the author's inner world. After the author's death, his friend Zhang Yiquan once had a mourning poem "Wounded Qinxi Resident", which has "The Dream of The White Snow Song is Long", when referring to the fact that after Xueqin's death, the original manuscript of "Dream of the Red Chamber" was mutilated, the verses were vague, and there were hidden things that were not easy to say. The poem calls Cao Gong a layman, and the author is likely to eventually live in a remote mountainous wilderness, entering the world with the heart of a layman, both born and entered the world. This state of life, the so-called "since he is the emperor of the Xi Dynasty, he can be the age of the dynasty of the book."
Jia Baoyu is the author's dream, the yearning for the birth, but also nostalgic for the rolling red dust; Zhen Baoyu is the author's reality, the return to the world, but also has a certain desire for liberation, just like the "a piece of beautiful jade fell in the mud" Miaoyu, "want to be clean And what was once clean?" Clouds are not necessarily empty." Therefore, the description of Baoyu's love of wind and moon seems to contradict itself.
Baoyu definitely has a love of clouds and rain with the attackers, and it seems that he also has male and female love with Musk Moon and Bi Trace. However, the seventy-seventh time Baoyu went to visit Qingwen, who was seriously ill and dying, she was helpless in the face of the flirtation of the lamp girl; on the seventy-eighth time, Madame Wang reported to Jia Mu about taking away Qingwen, and talked about attacking people and musk moon, jia mu told everyone about the treasure in her eyes: "I can't understand it, and I have never seen such a child." Other naughtiness is deserved, but it is rare for him to be good with the ladies. I am also worried about this, every time I look at it coldly, he only quarrels with the servants, and he must be a big man, who knows the affairs of men and women, so he loves to be close to them. If you look closely, it is not for this reason. Wouldn't that be strange? Presumably he was originally a, and he was wrongly cast? The eightieth time Wang Daoist guessed that Bao Yu had something in the room, he was stopped by the tea smoke, and Bao Yu was still puzzled. It seemed that Baoyu was completely ignorant of the affairs of the wind and moon.
Such a contradictory description implies that the text of "great purpose and love", behind the "love", "has a great meaning", and at the same time this is the presentation of a great and painful soul in the text.
However, the text "has metaphors in the table" (the twelfth criticism), and the text also has a deeper and broader social and historical background. The fifth lipogram states: "It was the author who had the heart of a bodhisattva and wrote this book with the pen of a sword and an axe." The author", while presenting his own family history, also alluded to the national history of the Qing Dynasty. As the "Outline of this Book, The Great Bito, and the Great Irony" (the Seventh Lipid Criticism), Qin Keqing alluded to the deposed prince Yin Rong, who was nicknamed "Secret", while Qin Keqing was "both beautiful" and "beautiful" in Qin Keqing (the fifth time). Jia Baoyu, who should be regarded as "Dream Politics Secret" Dai Yu, while passing on the shadow of "True Treasure Jade" (the second fat batch), his life trajectory is closer to the rise and fall of the dynasty; Zhen Baoyu, who should be looked at by "Dream Fan Secret" Bao Chao, is closer to the author's family history.[Note 2]
In the draft, the main plot of "Zhen Baoyu Sending Jade" (the eighteenth fat batch), which is one of the "great festivals and great keys of the Tongbu Book", is likely to be as follows: Lin Daiyu has died in tears, the remnants of orthodoxy are about to disappear, the metaphorical non-orthodox parties such as Jia Huan, Jia Huan, and Lady Xing are about to begin to fully take power over the Rongguo Mansion, and the "ninety spring light" of the fable is about to come to an end. Jia Baoyu, who should be seen as Daiyu, will never lose his beloved Daiyu, which is equivalent to losing his life root one by one "Psychic Treasure Jade".
In the text of "there are metaphors in the table", this also means that soon before and after this, Jia Baoyu will also lose the "psychic treasure jade". The lost "Psychic Treasure Jade" was given by chance (most likely the work of the monk and the lame Daoist), and in the hands of Zhen Baoyu, who had become a beggar, the "Psychic Treasure Jade" could "remove evil spirits, cure wrongs, and know misfortunes and blessings", which is actually one of the original purposes of the "Book of Stones", "Zhen Baoyu Sends Jade", the two treasure jades that have gone through the wind and moon finally do not have to intersect only in the dream because of the "Psychic Treasure Jade", alluding to the fact that both treasure jades finally have the wisdom to achieve the "Psychic Treasure Jade" beyond tragedy after suffering.
As the author's "self-yu", zhen and Jia Baoyu [Note 5] of the same person have finally reached the realm of wisdom through the wind and moon, is not it a true portrayal of the arduous mental journey experienced by the author in the last days that does not belong to him?
Genius used his magical pen to create a unique "this one" for the corridor of world literary history, and there are two more doubles, which are unforgettable but also confusing, because the text is "there are metaphors in the table", not only containing metaphors on the front of the Wind Moon Treasure Book, but also hiding a multi-layered metaphor equivalent to the "roller shutter grid" in the riddle on the back of the Wind Moon Treasure Book.
Therefore, the greatness of "Dream of the Red Chamber" is not only that it transcends most novels, profoundly presents the social vientiane of an era, writes out the unavoidable bitterness and coldness of life, and allows readers to taste the real life experience and life situation that ordinary people cannot say; the meticulous portrayal of human psychology writes the trembling of the character's soul, the incomprehensible psychological and contradictory emotional world; the thorough understanding of life, and the struggle between life and entry into the world. It writes the truth of the drowning and painful life and the common yearning for liberation and the wisdom to cope with it, and it is even more that it is like a magical magic mirror and a treasure book of wind and moon, which unbelievably has the back of "Zhen Shiyin", and under the appearance of "great purpose and love", it stirs up a magnificent historical storm.

Qin Keqing's soul to Fengjie's cultivation and reading heirloom wisdom is also connected with the realm of "Psychic Treasure Jade" and the realm of "Cold Incense Pill". For the fifteenth time, the village near the Tiezhan Temple showed Baoyu the second lady of the weaving technique, which is the cultivation of the heirloom wisdom of the cultivator. The lipogram pointed out: "Busy in the idle pen, but the following." "Everywhere there is 'love', and then the next paragraph is postscripted." In the draft, Zhen and Jia Baoyu are likely to have a role with the second lady.
