Chapter 26 Chapter 25: Zhi Yan is indeed from the Grand View Garden

Mother Jia picks up her grandson In a "Nightmare", the "Four Details" is the longest and most important, because it is the author's summary opinion. The first half of the book starts with Xiaohong, Qianyu's second servant girl and the prison temple incident, and continues with the ending of Miaoyu and Fangguan, until "Love List", and then to the "recovery" of "The Stone Returns to the Foot of the Mountain". This is purely "exploring lost studies", not that there are any "posthumous manuscripts" in the book (the fourth detailed title is "Rewriting and Posthumous Manuscripts").

This kind of article is still repeated, overlapping, branching and rambling.Those who are not familiar with "Red Mansion" can't understand it; those who are familiar with "Red Mansion" feel that it is too wordy and complicated, and it is rare to have such patience to accompany her to pester her endlessly. The method of research is still: how many times of "rewriting", how many times of "adding", among which a large number of important characters and plots are "added later" - just like she witnessed Xueqin's live action back then.But in fact, is the building built layer by layer based on the assumptions and conjectures she thinks is "fixed", is it really solid?There are many problems.

She believed in an unproven "comment" on "Jing Pi".I also believe in the "interpretation" of an expert.For example, the Yunzhi inkstone has died, and the abnormal wat has succeeded.Ruyun Miaoyu became a "prostitute" and let others play with her....She didn't know that "dirty" was not "dirty", and she didn't know that the original meaning of this poem was straight and straight, and she didn't know that it was found in Li Bai's poems in Han history, and even more in Cao Yin's poems.Such a waste of Miaoyu!Can you bear it?Can you bear it?

What surprised me in particular was that she had the idea of ​​"dark golden vase plum". The "Four Details" started by Xiaohong and Qianxue, is the "entry point" that makes me euphoric, because this is an important link in the big accident in which Jiemo Jia's mansion was convicted and Baoyu was in distress. I want to see her talk more about her wonderful imagination from the writer's mind and soul—this is because: she mentioned more than once that there are large sections of Xiaohong and Qianxue in the Temple of Hell, and unfortunately lost this fat (abnormal) for borrowers. And said: I can't wait to take the "time plane" to fly to that (borrower's) house and snatch the "five or six drafts" back!I want to read her test essays, and my mind is exactly the same.

But she didn't write much here, but revealed her suspicion of Xiaohong's "chastity". Her series of "rewriting" and "adding" theories will come at any time.Xiaohong was added later, Jia Yun was also added later, Xiaohong is the daughter of Lin Zhixiao's housekeeper, and she was also changed later... You can see this meandering "creative process" anytime and anywhere.That's all, but she said: Xiao Hong came on stage, met Jia Yun waiting in the study, Jia Yun only heard her call "brother" - I don't know who it was. Therefore, Ms. Zhang discussed: a maid is called Xiaosi, and it is rare to have such an intimate title... Then she further extended that the only one mentioned may refer to Mingyan, and Mingyan had a private relationship with Wan'er in the small study of Ningfu. The plot of the meeting....

You see, she thinks that Xiaohong "maybe" is really a "treacherous servant girl" (Zhi Yan's language). This kind of "detailedness" is imaginative, and the logic exceeds the proper "rules of thinking".I'm not interested in these things—just as there is a school of research that says that the embroidered spring pouch belongs to Baochai, so she quickly moved out of the Grand View Garden, and so on.... It is not this kind of "creative idea" that I want to benefit from consulting Zhang Ailing. Fortunately, in the "Four Details", I saw an extremely rare "fat study" insight.she says:

The Grand View Garden is the "Paradise Lost" that the author and Zhi Yan lingered on when they were young. I didn't expect that she once again admitted that Zhi Yan is a character in the Grand View Garden, an important female protagonist! This view was put forward in my book "A New Evidence of a Dream of Red Mansions" (it was earlier in the 50th issue of "Journal of Yenching").She didn't say a word about it, maybe it's self-realization, which is just in line with the clumsy theory-but if so, she should talk about it in "Details".The case is in doubt.It doesn't matter, the important thing is that she thinks so, which shows that "Zhiyan is Xiangyun" is no longer my own "whim".Some people say that this is "unbelievable", and this person is Ms. Zhang's followers in many places, and she accepted many writing "methods" of "Moving Theory" from that expert.

Unfortunately, she later "dismissed" Xiangyun again. She "no" the romantic relationship between Bao and Hunan because: 1. The text of the fifth chapter has not been read through.Second, believing in "Marrying Wei Ruolan" is also misreading the commentary.Third, there is no such clear and good footnote as "Detailed" "Chrysanthemum Poems".Fourth, it has not been clarified that the theory of "gold and jade" is true or false.Fifth, the "big demolition" and "big relocation" theories created by herself also caused her to sacrifice the structure of this "early draft".

Fortunately, as long as she hooks Zhiyan and Xiangyun, it will be very gratifying. The truth cannot be changed or canceled at will. The poem says: In the first half of the four details, there is Jiawen, who has gained a lot from panning for gold in the sand. Always have a wise heart and a wise eye, different from those of previous generations.
