In A Dream of Red Mansions, the author created a negative image of success, that is, Xifeng. In her body, it embodies the class essence of the feudal ruling class, greedy, cruel, vicious and cunning. It can be said that through the author's successful description, readers can see the ruling class itself as well as Wang Xifeng.

Wang Xifeng is a very vivid figure. Where she appears, there is excitement. At the age of 20, she presided over Guo Rong's housework. At the beginning of the volume, I introduced Leng Zixing: "She is beautiful in appearance, concise in speech and meticulous in calculation, but one person is not as good as a thousand." "Although she is young, she is older than this world. Now, she looks like a beautiful woman. Say less. There are ten thousand minds. When it comes to gambling, ten talking men also say that she is just. " We have a little impression of her. When she first appeared, she immediately appeared vividly in front of readers, making people forget it. This is the first time Daiyu has met her grandmother. When Grandfather held his granddaughter in his arms and cried, even Mrs. Wang, Li Wan and other ladies "held their breath and were serious". Only one person smiled from the backyard and said, "I came late and didn't meet any guests from afar." Just one sentence gives a particularly vivid impression. Only Xifeng can say this sentence. Maybe everyone in the Jia family is used to it, but like Daiyu, we feel particularly distinct: "Who is the newcomer?" Is it impolite to celebrate your birthday like this? "After a brief description, we saw a busy man and a big red man. She was late because she was busy. In the short party, she and Mrs. Wang talked about two other things. Talking to Daiyu also seemed very busy: I smiled and said a few words, immediately wiped my tears with a handkerchief, turned grief into joy, and quickly asked about the situation and arranged the way to entertain guests. Because of her popularity, she dared to be so rude, and grandma specially gave her the title of "sexy goods", which seemed to derogate from reality and have mixed opinions. This is in line with Xifeng's personality of showing herself and being competitive in everything. The author's rich brushwork makes Xifeng look very vivid. Next, Cao Xueqin continued to describe Xifeng on various occasions, exposing other aspects of her personality step by step, such as talent, arrogance, greed, hypocrisy and so on. Through this description, she wrote a complete and vivid Xifeng.

The author describes Xifeng from the front, and also expresses Guan Feng's image through observing and describing others. Granny Liu's first description of Xifeng showed her "power" well. Granny Liu managed to get into Guo Rongfu. After many twists and turns, when Xifeng "came down", she only heard voices and disappeared. After drinking, she finally accepted an interview. See Feng Zheng "powder light fat yan, sitting there seriously, holding a small copper fire chopsticks on the stove dial the ash. Pinger stood on the edge of the kang, holding a small tea tray with a small cover clock in it. Feng didn't pick up the tea or look up, just dusted the stove. Asked slowly,' why don't you come in?' I looked up and saw grandma Liu standing underground, so busy that I remembered, but the wonderful description of "smiling and greeting before getting up" was vivid enough. Through the detailed description, the prestige of a grandmother in charge of a noble family to poor relatives is written. In addition, her servant Xing 'er commented on her: "She has a vicious heart, a sharp mouth, a bitter mouth and two sides. She smiled at her head, but stumbled under her feet. It is a fire in a pot and a knife in the dark, which also reflects her character very accurately.

From the twelfth time, the author shows the true face of Xifeng's character through the description of the big plot. The Bureau of Poison and Acacia wrote about her viciousness, Associate Ning wrote about her talent, and The Iron Threshold Temple of Thrones wrote about her greed. These descriptions make readers more aware of the dark side of their character. An old nun in Shuiyue Temple begged Xifeng to break up Zhang Jinge's marriage. As a result, Xifeng got 3.2 thousand pieces of silver but forced an unmarried couple to die. After using the relationship between Jia and Wang to make the plot succeed, the author's condemnation is very obvious. "Xifeng is courageous and will do whatever she wants in the future."

Unlike Jia Zheng, Mrs. Wang and others who wear the mask of "generosity" and "kindness", Feng is not conscious of doing bad things, but bold. She once declared that "I never believe in things circulating in the underworld, so I will do whatever I say", which shows that she dares to challenge any force that prevents her from doing bad things. But her greedy and vicious nature, with women's beauty and intelligence, is good at flattering rhetoric, hiding herself more skillfully and more complicated. In the greedy pursuit of money, she really loves money like life. She wouldn't let Jia Lian usury, and even moved out the money of the servant girl every month to usury. Later, the Jia family lived on the open space, and the money was really not enough. Jia Lian asked her to beg Yuanyang, and she asked for a reward of one or two hundred taels of silver. Even the intrigue between husband and wife shows that it was indeed a moth before the collapse of Jiafu.

In the typical plot of "Wang Xifeng made a scene in Ningguo Mansion", the author used nearly two pages to fully and vividly show Xifeng's character. When Xifeng learned that Jia Lian had secretly married Second Sister You, she learned all the news from her mouth and took different countermeasures for different people. First, I humbly wooed Second Sister You, pretending to cheat Second Sister You to stay in the Grand View Garden, and then killing people with a knife. Zhang Hua, who sued Jia Lian for "showing prestige", was finally killed and silenced. What she did is indeed the best test of what Xing Er said.

The full description of Xifeng's character effectively exposed the ugliness of the feudal ruling class and the darkness of the feudal society. The author's verdict on Wang Xifeng is that "the organs have counted your life" and "the heart was broken before death, and the sex was ethereal after death." It is better to have a rich family, but eventually a family will die and everyone will go their separate ways. It's a waste of time to hang on to your heart for half your life: it's like swinging for three times. Suddenly like the first floor, suddenly like Yi Deng. Ah! One happy and one sad. Sighing that the world is hard to decide. " Thus, the author still sympathizes with it. The more capable Xifeng was, the more she accelerated the collapse of Jia's dilapidated building, and she died with it.
