Jia Yuanchun in "Dream of the Red Chamber" entered the palace as a concubine, do you feel happy?
Jia Yuanchun entered the palace as a concubine, is she happy? In fact, I feel that happiness is not a must for Jia Yuanchun's life, and she has no choice.
Jia Yuanchun, as the eldest lady of the second room of the Rongguo Mansion, entered the imperial palace as a female history, and this time, it was many years. According to the outsiders of the palace, the female history is unbelievable, and the people around the emperor are around.
However, if you think about it a little, you will find that the female history is a female official in the palace, who is in charge, that is, writing books and writing all kinds of things, how much can be written in the harem? It is not a living note, not to mention that there are many women in the palace, and in the eyes of concubines of high rank, it is no different from ordinary palace women, and she is not the same thing as the concubines who are favored in people's imagination.
If it were not for the young lady of Jia Fu who had to choose one to enter the palace, she Jia Yuanchun would marry and become the head mother of a large family, just like her mother and aunts, in charge of the family, hard work but with supreme respect. It's much better than being in the palace, mixing in the pile of people, waiting for the emperor to find out and pay attention to it one day.
Jia Yuanchun is in the harem, which should be a very low-key presence. One day, for some special reason, the emperor suddenly had a great joy in his heart and raised her rank, Jia Yuanchun became a virtuous concubine, and through the grace of the Emperor Taishang, she could also return to the Jia family province to meet the clan.
What happiness is there to speak of on such a day?
However, being able to go home and save relatives is decent for the Jia family. As soon as Jia Yuanchun got the seal, Jia Yuanchun waited for Xie En to go home, relatives and friends celebrated, ningrong and the two houses were really lively, everyone was proud, there was a noble concubine in the family, only Baoyu did not matter.
Madame Wang and other delights can be slightly known. Sister Feng said to Jia Lian, "Uncle Guo is very happy!" Uncle Guo has worked hard all the way! This "Uncle Grandpa" cried out, very happy. In fact, we all know that no matter how she upgrades Yuan Chun, she is not an empress, and the big name of this uncle of the country, Jia Lian, actually deserves it. But Jia Lian did not correct it, and the mentality of the Jia family became clear. In their eyes, Yuan Chun was definitely happy.
Jia Yuanchun provincial pro, the appearance of the standard royals, a team of eunuchs, a pair of palace women to follow, exquisite and luxurious version of public opinion, the battle is quite large, the etiquette is cumbersome to the extreme, when to go, when to enter the door, when to meet what people, what occasions to meet whom, liturgy is noisy, endless Taiping weather, rich and noble.
For women at that time, being in the royal family, being extremely rich and noble, and the prosperity of the mother's family, such a Yuan Chun should be happy, at least in the eyes of outsiders.
However, in Jia Yuanchun's own view, what is her life like? She didn't find it interesting. She talked to Jia Zheng, and said with tears in the curtain: "Although the farmhouse house, although it is salty and clothed, can finally gather the joy of heaven; now although the wealth is extreme, the flesh and bones of all parties, but in the end there is no interest", the rich and noble have been extreme, but the flesh and bones are separated, can not enjoy the joy of heaven, have no interest.
She talked to Jia Zheng, and the clichés kept talking, and the father and daughter said official words to the outside world without money, to whom to listen? The retinue around him, from the outsider's point of view, having these people's retinue is Yuan Chun's decency.
But yuanchun seems that these people are spying on her, and her words and deeds must be in accordance with etiquette, otherwise the consequences will be unimaginable. She met with Lady Jia Muwang and said, "Since I was sent to that place where no one could be seen that day, it was easy for the ladies and children to go home today for a while, and instead of laughing and laughing, they cried." After a while I went, and I didn't know how early or late I would come! ”
In her eyes, although the palace is extremely prosperous, it is ultimately a place where no one can see people, although it is dressed in fine clothes and food, it is also interesting. Therefore, the fragrant jade in her eyes was ironic to her.
Ordinary people can cry when they want to, laugh when they want to laugh, Jia Yuanchun province kiss, originally it was a happy thing, but she couldn't laugh.
She has been in the palace for many years, and finally she can go home to meet her parents, see her brother who is thinking of her heart, think of not knowing when she will be able to return again, and sorrow comes from it, but Jia Yuanchun can't cry, she can only endure sadness and laughter. In the original work, Yuan Chun was sad many times, and his eyes were full of tears, but there was no time or occasion to really cry well. For the sake of the royal norms, for the sake of her and the future of the Jia family.
When they save their relatives, they hope to see each other again, but life is always unpredictable. If Jia Yuanchun wanted to get the news of the people of Jia Province, he could only wait for a specific day for Lady Wang or Jia Mu to have a chance to see it. She looks forward to communicating with her sisters, so on the festival day, she always does not forget to write a gift one by one, increase the joy of life a little, and also give herself a little home thought.
Jia Yuanchun's entry into the palace is a move for the Jia family to be loyal to the royal family, and Jia Yuanchun's sealing of concubines is a move for the emperor to stabilize the Jia family. The image of Jia Yuanchun is the faint face behind the curtain when he was a provincial relative. Looking at it from a distance, it was more like a shadow than the other girls, and this was also her life.
Such a life, as far as Yuan Chun is concerned, what happiness is there? Involuntarily, she has been like this all her life. Born, not by her, not by her, nor by her.
