Baodai's love is a misunderstanding.

A dream of red mansions is full of absurd words, and it is difficult to distinguish between true and false.

One of the couplets can be regarded as the theme of the whole novel. This is a couplet in the dreamland:

"The Red Chamber" is a dream, and dreams are also true and false. There are many things in The Red Chamber that are hard to distinguish between true and false. This article is about Baodai's most sincere and touching love in the book. How many tears did this love earn? I'm afraid that since the appearance of A Dream of Red Mansions, the gathering place of tears is like a big river, and the waves are higher than the sky.

But this thrilling love is the biggest "true and false"; And fundamentally speaking, this kind of "true and false" love is actually a big misunderstanding, which is embarrassing to think about. It contains "true and false" and "as if there is nothing". Come to think of it, it's quite chewy. If you have leisure and are patient, listen to the next chapter.

The reason why Baodai fell in love in her previous life was "the alliance of wood and stone". There is a saying in the twelfth poem "A lifelong mistake" in the fifth return to the Red Chamber:

"Good marriage" refers to Baoyu and Baochai, Baochai has a golden lock and Baoyu has beautiful jade; "Alliance of wood and stone" refers to Baoyu and Daiyu, Daiyu is wood and Baoyu is stone (let's just say so). When "An" refers to Jia Baoyu, these two sentences can be regarded as Baoyu's heartfelt wishes.

In "Mu Shi Qian Meng", the wood refers to Lin Daiyu, who was a crimson pearl grass on the bank of Xiling River in her previous life, belonging to vegetation; Stone refers to the waiter in Shen Ying (not entirely Jia Baoyu). He called the waiter "Stone" because of the word "English". Ying is a kind of stone as transparent as jade or refers to beautiful jade (all Han jade is related to jade next to the word "Wang", such as Jia Zhen, Jia Lian, (Baoyu's eldest brother), Jia Huan, Jia Rui, and they all have the word "Wang" next to their names). In the final analysis, jade is just a stone. The waiter from Shen Ying is also on the bank of Xiling River. The scarlet LYSIMACHIA can be seen every day. Because it is swaying in the wind and charming, it is watered with manna every day. Although this crimson pearl was originally a plant, it was watered by nectar. After a long time, I got the essence of heaven and earth, and the gas field has passed. It gradually took off the grass embryo wood, cultivated into a fairy, became a female body, and lived in a world far from hate.

The word "alliance" in "alliance stone in front of the wood" means Covenant and oath. Generally speaking, the so-called "covenant and oath" is aimed at at at least two parties, but here, it only refers to the crimson pearl grass, and she has her own "oath" to Shen Ying. However, Ying Shen did not make any "covenant" or "oath" to crimson pearl. He was originally a "waiter". It may seem to him to be an ordinary thing, a matter of course, and a duty. He didn't take it to heart. From this point of view, this "Covenant" has the color of "unrequited love" since its birth, and naturally has the characteristics of tragedy.

So, what kind of "oath" does crimson pearl fairy grass have to the waiters in Shen Ying? It's normal, but the so-called "repay kindness with kindness", but the incident of the crimson pearl goddess Ying happened in that "dreamland", "the bank of the Western Heaven Spirit, the shore of Sansheng Stone", but it didn't happen in the "rolling world of mortals". If it happens in the secular world, the crimson pearl fairy can "commit herself to the waiter" and make a story. However, there are no earthly "events" in the "dreamland" and "the banks of the Western Heaven and the Sansheng Stone Bank", so the oath of Jiang Zhu to Shen Ying is completely different from the world of mortals.

The crimson pearl grass is grateful to the waiter Shen Ying for his irrigation, and has been looking for a chance to repay it, but there has been no chance, so she has been very depressed. The original text of A Dream of Red Mansions is "five minutes is a lingering meaning", which reveals the innate reasons for the formation of Lin Daiyu's personality and physical state. In the third episode of A Dream of Red Mansions, Daiyu went to Beijing from Yangzhou and came to Jiafu.

The word "physically timid, but naturally romantic" in this passage is because of the word "lingering".

The opportunity for the crimson pearl fairy to wait has finally come. Suddenly, one day, this waiter named Shen Ying may feel that the life of the immortal is too quiet and boring, and he is tired of staying on the bank of the Linghe River. He went to tell the story of the police fairy, thinking of traveling to the world to adjust his mood. Shen Ying, a waiter, came to earth because the words "eternal heart" and "eternal heart" mean to point out the family's yearning for earthly life, that is, the secular heart; "Fierce" means fiery and vigorous; "Uniformity" is accidental, and "uniformity-heat" means that the waiter Shen Ying's "quiet heart" is like an ancient well without waves. Suddenly at a certain moment, for a reason we don't know, there was a ripple. Once he moved, he couldn't stay in heaven and just wanted to come down to earth.

We can feel a sense of irony from here. The "fairyland" that secular people yearn for is actually not so beautiful. When people in the secular world are tortured by feelings, they all want to cut off their feelings and fall into an empty door, so as to achieve a state of no desire and no desire. And those immortals have been practicing for a long time, and even envy and yearn for our human life, thinking of the lower bound. All beings in the world of mortals are bent on entering the celestial world, and the "immortals" in the celestial world are bent on coming to earth. When you think about it carefully, people can't help but smile. Distance produces beauty, or "humanity", which is really speechless. What you can't get is always good, and what you get is unwilling to cherish, and you like the new and hate the old. Perhaps all kinds of joys and sorrows in the world are formed in this way.

Because one of the waiters was unhappy and wanted to go down to earth, the crimson pearl fairy wanted to take this opportunity to end the "irrigation situation" that she had been unable to repay. Fairy Crimson Pearl is kind to nature, and the method of "paying off debts" that she came up with is also chinese odyssey. She said:

After reading this, you have to admire Cao Xueqin's fantastic ideas. Next to these words, JOE's version of A Dream of Red Mansions has comments on Zhi Yanzhai and eyebrows. At this point, please cover up your thoughts: there have always been novels. Is there such a strange article that you have never heard of? The article of eyebrow criticism is: most authors are an ear when they know that they are crying to pay their debts. I know what it means, but I can't say it. A side note of the Mongolian palace book "The Story of the Stone" here is that only tears can pay off the debts of mountains and seas.

Reading these words of praise carefully, we can not only sigh the author's whimsy, but also vaguely feel the unusual relationship between Zhi Yanzhai and the author Cao Xueqin. Mr. Zhou, a famous redology scholar, speculates that Zhi Yanzhai and Cao Xueqin are husband and wife, and you can read Mr. Zhou's article if you are interested.

The word "tears" also reminds people of the short poems written by the author at the beginning: a piece of absurd words and a bitter tear. What is the bitterness of the tears that the crimson pearl fairy will come back in the future compared with the "bitter tears" written by the author Cao Xueqin? "Only tears can repay the debt of mountains and seas", which shows the value of "tears". Only when feelings are deep can people cry. Lin Daiyu's parents died, leaving her alone in Jia's house. There is really nothing to repay except her own "tears".

Men and women In the world, women cry more easily than men. If we do a statistics, statistics, through the ages, men shed more tears or women shed more tears, which is more? I'm afraid the answer is self-evident. So, please all men in the world cherish the women who shed tears for you!

Because the waiter in Shen Ying wanted to "create a magical fate on earth", the crimson pearl fairy also accompanied the afterlife to end her "irrigation love". These two "people" are absolute protagonists. But a good play, if only the protagonist, is impossible to watch. So the police fairy found some supporting actors to accompany the two men in the next life. The original statement of A Dream of Red Mansions is as follows:

Please read A Dream of Red Mansions and think carefully. Who are these people who will accompany Shen Ying, the waiter and the crimson pearl fairy in the next life? Look at these words, and then think about those people in A Dream of Red Mansions, Jia's, Xue's, historian's, Wang's, Jia Zhen's, Qin Keqing's, Jia Lianbao's, You Erjie's, You Sanjie's and Jia Huan's, and that's it.

Although these people are all "supporting roles" and all come with "stories", the "stories" are different. Some are pure, some are dirty, some are gold and silver, some are lust, some are good, some are evil, the ultimate beauty is beauty, the ultimate ugliness is ugliness, and so on, forming a wonderful dream of red mansions.

Lala said so much, in fact, the protagonist in Baodai Love has not appeared yet. As we said before, the waiters in Shen Ying are not all Jia Baoyu. If the waiter in Shen Ying is Jia Baoyu, then the story is too simple. Although there is a novel and unique saying of "returning tears", it is still not the "stereotype" of secular romance novels. How can a great man like Cao Xueqin fall into such a stereotype? He is determined to write a wonderful book that has never been seen before.

So who is Jia Baoyu? It's a long story I have another one, Notes on the Red Chamber || Where does Jia Baoyu come from? ",devoted to the ins and outs of Jia Baoyu, don't look if you are interested. Now, let's look at how the hero of "Bao Dai Lian" made his debut as BLACKPINK from another angle.

Ladies and gentlemen, do you still remember the stone that was abandoned under the "Green Ridge Peak" at the beginning of A Dream of Red Mansions? This stone of enlightenment was once brought to the world of mortals by "boundless scholars" and "ethereal real people" and experienced a series of joys and sorrows. And this stone once wrote all his experiences on the stone, with a poem:

Therefore, A Dream of Red Mansions is also called The Story of the Stone. The whole book is the personal experience of this stone, and it is definitely the protagonist. Who is the protagonist in a dream of red mansions? Isn't that Jia Baoyu who was born with jade? And Lin Daiyu's cherished "treasure brother" is not this "stupid brother"? Lin Daiyu will cry when she sees it. Isn't it Jia Baoyu who cried all his life? So, is this tear wrong? Shouldn't these tears be returned to the "indifferent" "Shen Ying waiter"? Isn't it a big misunderstanding that Fairy Jiangzhu mistook the Sansheng stone on the bank of Linghe River for the "waiter of God"?

Having said that, do you think there is a big "BUG" in Cao Xueqin's novels? If you think so, you worry too much. This is actually the subtlety of Cao Xueqin. Please recall the famous couplets in Fantasia:

True and false, and the combination of reality and falsehood is the biggest feature of A Dream of Red Mansions.

Since Jia Baoyu is neither a waiter nor a "real" object of tears, where did the waiter "descend"? Those of you who have seen A Dream of Red Mansions, remember Zhen Baoyu? Looks exactly like Jia Baoyu, and has the same temperament when he was a child. Jinling is the "Zhen Baoyu" in the city.

It doesn't matter whether this Zhen (real) Jia (fake) is true or false, or whether it is true or false. In fact, it is difficult to sort it out. But the greatest pleasure in reading A Dream of Red Mansions is to "think carefully". A Dream of Red Mansions begins by saying:

This is the secret of reading A Dream of Red Mansions. The story told in the Red Chamber seems absurd, but if you think about it carefully, you will find it "interesting". The word "deep" tells the method and difficulty of reading A Dream of Red Mansions. Zhou Dui said, "To read this book, you must be careful and profound. You know, Qin Xue's handwriting is very elegant, and the core of the writing is dense. You must recite and ponder and be good at understanding. "

Therefore, although the things in the Red Chamber are hard to distinguish between true and false, if you want to enter the "Red Chamber", you still have to distinguish them carefully. In order to find out the relationship between the waiter Shen Ying and the stone, that is, the relationship between "true and false Baoyu", we must take a closer look at how the stone came to the world (the reason why the waiter Shen Ying came to the world has been made clear above).

In other words, the stone begged the monk to take himself to the world for a "tour", but the monk refused, so he had to turn the stone into the shape of a fan pendant, hold it in his hand, float away, and find a suitable time to take it to the WTO. One day, monks and Taoists also heard that Shen Ying, the waiter, and Fairy Pearl, together with some supporting actors, were going to descend to the world, so they decided to rush to the "dreamland" and "entrain" stones in it to take this opportunity to join the WTO. The original text is as follows:

Looking closely at this passage, the word "entrainment" is worth pondering: how to entrain? Who's carrying it? In what form? In what form will China join the WTO? Did you join the WTO in its original form (stone)? Or become a person? Cao Xueqin didn't write all this clearly, leaving it to our readers to finish.

Fundamentally speaking, this stone book abandoned at the foot of Geng Qingfeng has nothing to do with the waiter Shen Ying and the "fairy" of the crimson pearl fairy. The stubborn stone felt sorry for itself at the foot of Geng Qingfeng, a ridiculous cliff in a big barren mountain, and Shen Ying and Zhu Jiang were born on the Sansheng stone bank of Xiling River. It was not until Shen Ying and others wanted to rob him that the monk came to sleep with the stone. At this time, the stone and Shen Ying met.

When they met, Shi was a complete outsider, and he was an out-and-out "third party" to Shen Ying and Jiang Zhucao, waiters who had forged a fairy fate on the bank of Xiling River. At that time, this stubborn stone was called "stupid thing" by monks, and Shen Ying and Zhu Jiangdu were among the "fairy classes". No matter from which aspect, this stubborn stone can only be an "outsider", a "supporting role" and an occasional "third party". But after all, this stubborn stone was refined by Nu Wa's family, and it was spiritually enlightened. Besides, because he envied the "splendor" of the world, he begged the monk to take him into the world of mortals and wanted to enjoy it in the "gentle hometown of rich fields" for several years.

Therefore, it is impossible for this stubborn stone to come to the world of mortals in the form of its "prototype-stone". He must become a human being, enter the giants, and become the master of the giants, in order to "enjoy" the wealth, gentleness, luxury and prosperity of the world. Therefore, the word "entrainment" is really mixed with these "romantic friends", "perverts" and "virtuous and stupid" who are about to fall into the world of mortals, becoming one of them and becoming a particularly important one.

As a result, the position of the original protagonist in The Waiter in Shen Ying is in jeopardy.

Since this stubborn stone is going to become a human form, who will it become? Judging from the purpose of his accession to the WTO, he should naturally become a major figure, but the protagonist of this "robbery" story has long existed, and that is the waiter in Shen Ying. Just as "a bunch of people" were about to set off, the stubborn stone came and wanted to be "entrained" in one of them.

What shall we do? At this time, Cao Xueqin's "superb skills" and "ingenious ideas" are fully revealed: in the end, the "Baoyu" descended from the world is true (Zhen) and false (Jia), and Zhen Baoyu in Nanjing (Jinling) and Jia Baoyu in Beijing are highly similar in appearance, character and environment. Put it together, it's hard to tell the difference between true and false. In fact, the stubborn stone refined by Nu Wa's family and Shen Ying by Xiling River are essentially stones and jade. Put together, it is difficult to distinguish between true and false, and it is also reasonable. Judging from the fate of Cao Xueqin, Zhen Baoyu's predecessor should be a waiter in Shen Ying, and Jia Baoyu is a stubborn stone.

I don't know what kind of way this stubborn stone used. In the process of coming down to earth, I realized a perfect "counterattack", from an "outsider" and "supporting role" to a complete insider and protagonist, and became the owner of the "Grand View Garden"-Jia Baoyu. The original "initiator" and "protagonist" who came down to earth became a stubborn stone (. If you think carefully about the "what is true is false" in that couplet, you will suddenly understand a lot. You can't help but marvel at Cao Xueqin's Wen Xin Mi Yi: It is precisely because the fake (Jia) stone becomes the real protagonist (fake to true) that the real (real) protagonist becomes the supporting role (true and false).

There is another detail in A Dream of Red Mansions that seems to prove Jia Baoyu's falsehood. It was several years after she came to earth that Bao Dai met for the first time. Jia Baoyu met Lin Daiyu and said, "I have seen this sister before." Careful speculation, this sentence should be a stubborn tone. When he came down to earth with the group of people, he saw the "crimson pearl fairy", and he happened to see it, so he said this sentence. If the waiter is Shen Ying, and the water is watered by the sansheng stone on the bank of Linghe River every day, then the sentence "I have seen this sister" can't be lightly sentenced for several years.

When the crimson pearl fairy saw "Jia Baoyu" on earth,

"Surprise" and "familiarity" should be the expression of "meeting an old friend", not a frivolous "I have seen this sister before".

In the case of "startled", Fairy Jiangzhu forgot to identify it carefully and decided that this "Jia Baoyu" was the object of "returning tears" in the future. All her life, she only cared about "returning tears", but she didn't know that she had returned tears to the wrong person-Jia Baoyu.

Although Baodai's love is a misunderstanding in previous lives, it does not affect the sincerity of this "human love". Although the stubborn stone came to the world with the heart of "enjoyment" at first, in the process of "enjoyment", it gradually devoted itself to "pretending to be a stone", turning its stubbornness of being born as a stone and its shame of "having no material to fill the sky" into the unchanging and sincere truth of all the daughters in the Grand View Garden, and what's more, it has a special liking for itself.

In the first story of A Dream of Red Mansions written by Cheng Jiaben and Cheng Yiben forty times after Gao E's sequel, Gao E combined the stubborn stone with the waiter Shen Ying. In the book 1 16, Realizing Fairy Fate in Psychic Dreamland, Jia Baoyu went to the dreamland again as a waiter Shen Ying, and saw the vermilion grass and vermilion returned to their original places.

It is reasonable for Gao E to make such a change, which is unified before and after and fluent in arts and sciences. However, after this change, the interest of the novel is gone, and the "dream feeling" that Cao Xueqin painstakingly created seems to be gone and lightened a lot.

Gao E's first corrected text is as follows (this passage can't be found in JOE's manuscripts such as A Dream of Red Mansions):

Gao E's rewriting is a bit unreasonable if it is "more real" for the following reasons:

Now this hard stone has become a waiter named Shen Ying, and when the waiter named Shen Ying and the crimson pearl fairy were about to descend to earth, the monk took a "hard stone" with him, trying to "experience" this "hard stone" between the waiter named Shen Ying and the crimson pearl fairy. In this way, the waiter Shen Ying and Stone appeared at the same time. Is it not contradictory?

At the beginning of A Dream of Red Mansions, Cao Xueqin wrote two "parallel" myths: Nu Wa tried to mend the sky by refining stones, and Shen Ying, assistant minister by Xiling River, watered crimson pearl grass. It has always been thought that one of these two myths represents the remoteness of time (Nu Wa is the god at the beginning of life) and the other represents the infinity of space (please note that the "West" here is not the "West" in the secular sense). These two myths constitute the infinite sense of time and space, highlighting the smallness of "people". After Gao E changed, Cao Xueqin originally imagined two myths of "juxtaposition of time and space", which became different stages of the same myth in time sequence, thus losing a lot of charm.

Having said that, I still want to thank Gao E. At least, he gave us a complete Dream of Red Mansions. Although there are some shortcomings, it is the best version except the original version of Cao Xueqin (if any). The sequel 1 15, when Zhen Baoyu and Jia Baoyu met, Zi Juan was there. When she saw that Zhen Baoyu really looked exactly like Jia Baoyu, she thought of Lin Daiyu and said to herself, "It's a pity that Miss Lin is dead. If she hadn't died, she would have given Zhen Baoyu to him. I'm afraid she will. " (I wonder if Daiyu really wants to? Seeing this plot is also "heartache." Imagine that Baochai and Daiyu married Jia (fake) Baoyu and Zhen (real) Baoyu respectively, which made up for the regret to some extent ... (Laughter! )

The article is written here, and then think about those four poems:

A piece of nonsense, a bitter tear, Dou Yun author crazy, who can understand the taste.

Baodai's love is a misunderstanding? ! Funny? Ridiculous! Bitter? Bitter!

Readers, have you tasted one or two of these flavors?

Having said that, the article should be over. Finally, I want to say a word to all sentient men and women in the world:
