Chapter 13 Chapter 12 A Bodhisattva

From Eileen Chang's first article on "Red Learning", I have a general comment on the forty chapters of pseudo-continuation: Because the last forty chapters are full of smog, readers just want to see the ending of the people. They are neither interested nor impressed by these side plots. Even if the story is not finished or turned upside down, no one pays attention to it. , which is another characteristic of the last forty chapters.It is rare in our old novels or any novels. For Ms. Zhang, who cherishes ink like gold and writes bigger than a bucket, it is very precious to be able to comment so clearly.Although there are still some "scab addicts" who still hold the last forty times and applaud loudly, more people are just like what she said, including high school young talents I know.

Not bad at all, "I can't stand it"! Like a "chronological account", the "plot" is clumsily assembled, people lose their soul, their expressions lose their expression, and things lose their meaning, a pile of heartless and tasteless.To say that this is "literature" and that it is "wonderful" and "great" is not to ruin our own splendid culture? "The miasma" is in power, and naturally "the sun is dark". Unfinished—the "finished" is this. Alas! She tried her best to find clues for the sequel, and also mentioned "Cuiwen Bookstore", that is, the printer of Cheng Gao's 120 chapters of movable type.But no results.

This is because she did not know that Kamensky, the head of the Tenth Russian Mission and a Sinologist, had marked on a Cheng Gaoben: It was printed by the court!The foreign priests in Beijing knew more inside information than the Chinese. This "court" refers to Qianlong's "Wuyingdian Book Repair Office", which is dedicated to printing books with wooden movable type (mainly for "Siku Quanshu").I have verified that the "Complete Version" of the 120 chapters was presided over by He Shen. He instructed the "Book Repair Office" to print the book with inferior wooden movable type (unable to be picked out). Of course, the truth cannot be publicly exposed. How can novels be printed?Therefore, the pseudonym of "Cuiwen" - "Cuiwen" is just another variation of the Qing Dynasty movable type version, elegantly known as "Jijin" and "Juzhen".

Therefore, the documents claim that Cheng Gao's movable type is the evidence of "temple board" - "temple", which has the same meaning as the "court" mentioned by Kashi. Eileen Chang also commented on Gao E's seven-character quatrain, which says, "When you grow old, you will lose your past years, and the sun will sleep high among the thousands of flowers. I even embraced the Chang'e moon last night, and realized the light and free Zen." It means that he has already "toad palace "Zhegui", won the Jinshi, and I feel happy, so I don't go to the "thousands of flowers" (the red mansions are full of beauty).This solution is very accurate, much better than others' solutions.

There are three issues that can be discussed incidentally today: First, she adopted other people's opinions and believed that Yuanchun (judging from the guard of honor) should be a princess, not an imperial concubine; so she attached the concubine of the Cao family, that is, Fujin, the king of Pingjun Naersu, as the eldest daughter of Cao Yin, and the daughter of Xueqin. great aunt. This is wrong.One must not confuse one's seniority with one's own material for a novel, that is unimaginable in terms of ethics and morality (people today often don't quite understand the meaning of this, so they mess around).Now new research shows that: Yuanchun was originally the princess of Hongxi, the eldest son of Yinreng, the deposed prince of Kangxi.In the fourth or fifth year of Qianlong’s reign, Hongxi launched a campaign to overthrow Emperor Qianlong of Hongli. This so-called “sun and moon shine on the heaven and earth”—a famous sentence by Li Bai in Xiangyun’s Yapai wine decree, alludes to the fact that two emperors stand side by side (Hongxi has set government agencies).

Second, although Zhang Ailing also speculated about Miaoyu's ending, it was too simple and ambiguous.She has no comment on this important character in the book, and she seems to have no emotional knowledge, and she doesn't even know the original meaning of the old saying "dirty".This surprised me. "Dirty (kang) and dirty (zang) are upright and unyielding, and have nothing to do with "dirty". Third, regarding the name of the person in the original book, she pointed out that Jia Rong's wife was the Xu family, but in the continuation book it became the "Hu" family.But it also pointed out that the original Miss Shi, Sister Shi, Sister Yun, and Yatou Yun, etc., in the sequel, the word "big" was cut off and used, and "Yun" was changed to "History", such as "Sister Shi", "Sister Shi", etc. girl"...

What is the special need and purpose of this?She did not comment.This matter seemed strange, and she didn't guess the reason. In order to repudiate the fake and get back the original, she spent all her efforts on the fake first, is it worth it?Different comments can be made; but one cannot but be moved and grateful for her painstaking efforts and infatuation. If you talk about the essence of this phenomenon, you must realize that this is the great tragedy of a book. Zhang Ailing seems to be a bodhisattva, for Cao Xueqin and her book, she made a wish of great compassion and great compassion, and preached the Dharma for all beings in the audience.

After reading the first article of this "unfinished", I feel that this is not the best article by the female writer Zhang Ailing.Its advantage is sincerity, without pretentiousness or pretense, which is the result of Li Hou's main word "chaotic head and rough clothes".She seems not to stick to the details of the world, and she is at ease, even talking to herself, rather than declaring righteousness to others, revealing the temperament of a poet.She doesn't ask for "standards" in the titles of the books, such as "A copy", "B copy", "this second copy", "old copy", "full copy"... It is enough to make beginners confused and clueless.

However, I also believe that she will have good articles to reward in the future, as Gu Hutou said: "If you eat ganlu, you will gradually get better." She will not disappoint. The poem says: It's like coming back to Avalokitesvara, showing up to speak and meditating. No one will talk about it, it's a waste of ten years of hard work.
