Abstract: Zhen in A Dream of Red Mansions is a special figure who inherits heaven and earth. The key is the homonym of "real Yin Shi": truth is hidden, truth is hidden (truth) and truth is hidden (real person). The author skillfully uses Zhen and Zhen Fei as body double, and writes the real characters and stories behind A Dream of Red Mansions-Zhen Fei Li Yu in the Southern Tang Dynasty. However, there are differences between Zhen and Li Yu, and there are worlds apart. This is another complete novel, The Back of a Dream of Red Mansions. This is beyond Gao E's power.
"Zhongjing" in the novel is a fabricated mixture of Bianjing and Nanjing (Jinling).
If you want to interpret "good songs", you must interpret Zhen Yinshi. After all, "good song" is the first time he heard it. His "interpretation of good song" was praised by the lame Taoist: "Good solution!" . We may get some useful information about A Dream of Red Mansions from Zhen's words and with the help of the tips of Zhi Pi. Therefore, try to understand Zhen first.
(Back to the 52nd) Gossip about Zhen (fame fee, word scholar hidden)
When A Dream of Red Mansions was first opened, the world's first special character Zhen Yinshi appeared. When he appeared, he lived in Jinling, a second-class rich and romantic place in the world of mortals. Shili street in the city, and specifically explained that next to it is an ancient temple "Hulu Temple"; This man "doesn't care about fame, only likes to look at flowers and bamboo every day, but he is a fairy-like figure" and lives a leisurely secular life. Only after the Lantern Festival this year, "on March 15th, Hulu Temple caught fire". Hulu Temple burned to Zhen's house. "Although there were soldiers and civilians to save it at that time," "The fire has become a potential. How can we save it?" Zhen is both defeated and helpless. He came to his father-in-law's house, Su Feng, which is as big as the state capital, and lived a life of dependence and ridicule. This brief introduction in the novel is that the author hides the "true story" and "true history" (Zhen Shi) that he wants to write.
This is the South Tang Li Houzhu mentioned above. Li Yu, formerly known as Li, was named a layman, Zhong Yin and a hermit in Zhongshan. I love poetry and flowers all my life. I take poetry as my pleasure and don't think about being an emperor. For fourteen years, I have lived a comfortable court life. Because Zhao Kuangyin mutinied in Chen Qiao, fengqiu county, Henan Province, wearing a yellow robe, he built the Zhao Ancestral Hall in the South of the Yangtze River, which laid the foundation of the Song Dynasty. At this time, the surrounding small countries, including Nantang, which have not been unified, are always under the threat of Song Jun.1September, 974 (around the Mid-Autumn Festival), Zhao Kuangyin sent troops to attack Nantang, and the war burned to the gates of Jinling. In November of the following year, Nantang died of illness. Li Yu became the "deposed emperor" and was sent to Kaifeng, Henan. Zhao Kuangyin humiliated Li Yu as "disobedient" and lived a life of being laughed at and "guilty".
Zhen, a "fat man", clearly admitted that he meant "the truth is hidden". If authors and critics really want to hide the truth, they don't have to take this name and number, and they don't have to point out the veil that "the truth is hidden." In fact, the word "Zhen Yin Shi" is also "hiding the true history", that is, it hides a "true history"; The homonym of "true concealment" and "true scholar concealment" is "Li Zhongyin"; Or "true hermit" means: the famous recruiters are Ambry lay and Zhongshan hermit. It is not difficult to understand that Zhen was named "Fei". That is, the homonym of "waste". At this time, the hermit in Zhongshan was already the "waste master" of the Southern Tang Dynasty. It can be said that Zhen is body double of Li Yu, and he realized the goodness of Song. (Zhen Fei wakes up, Li Fei's master is dead, and listen to the following. )
As for Zhen's "I don't care about fame, I just like to see flowers and trim bamboo every day, but it is an immortal character"; It is no coincidence that Li Houzhu and "Zhongshan Hermit" were in one-to-one correspondence when they were in office.
Life as a fairy won't last long. 1974 In September, Song Jun started his army in Nantang. Around the Mid-Autumn Festival that year, the novel was changed to Lantern Festival. Change "August 15" to "March 15". When the war spread to Jinling, Li Houzhu also sent troops to rescue it, but "the fire has already started a prairie fire". In the novel, "Although there were soldiers and civilians to save at that time", Li Yu's rescuer was defeated by Song Jun. "How can it be saved?" ,。 After Li Yu surrendered, he was taken to Kaifeng and became a humiliated prisoner. In the novel, after the Zhen fire, in desperation, he went to reunite with his family. Su Feng's criticism of "Big State": The excuse is probably this. This is a fabricated state name. Zhuozhou, Hebei Province, known as "the largest state in the world" (big state), is the origin of Zhao Kuangyin, Song Taizu. The word "Feng" in "Feng Family" is related to whether it implicitly refers to Kaifengfu (the capital of song dynasty) or Fengqiu (the place where Chen Qiaoyi originated). There are also many places in the novel that deliberately confuse place names; As mentioned above, Zhen Yinshi lives in a "first-class, second-class and prosperous place" in the world of mortals, and Jiaju in Gusu is called Jinling. Only this "first-class" place can be the place where the emperor and king are located. So Pang Tuan quickly pointed out that the "Gusu" mentioned here actually refers to Jinling, which is Li Yu's southern Tang capital. This first-class and second-class gentle and rich hometown was not even Suzhou at that time. This area can only be Yangzhou in the north and Jinling in the south. He also said that Zhen Shi lives in Shili Street outside Nagato: Let's talk about the surname of Fu Zhen and Feng Er first. The "Fu Zhen and Feng Er surname" mentioned by the fat group here actually refers to the matter of Li and Zhao Er surname. Zhen's family is in Gusu, and the fat group said it was Jinling; If you don't live in Shili Street, but say that you are a local resident, this surname is a lie about Kaifeng (the capital of the Song Dynasty). The so-called "Chang 'an" and "Zhongjing" in A Dream of Red Mansions are actually a mixture of "Bianjing" (Tokyo and Kaifeng) and "Nanjing" (Jinling, the ancient capital of the Six Dynasties), that is, "Yugong couples often quarrel with women, so they are called Zhongjing. There is no need to describe the direction, and the words "avoid its east, west, north and south" (for example). The capital of Kangxi Dynasty in Qing Dynasty where the author lived was Beijing, while Bianjing in Northern Song Dynasty had been buried by the Yellow River for hundreds of years. When writing a novel, it is reasonable and logical for the author to refer to his familiar "Jing Qing" Jinghua to describe the prosperity, landscape, folk customs, language and even the court of Kyoto. Textual research on A Dream of Red Mansions If the "surface" of the latter is "essence", the result will be the opposite. This is also the embarrassment of "testing the red".
As for the Hulu Temple in Gusu City, it has been burned down in the novel, which shows that this temple was built by the ancients, and there is no need for textual research. Just in the name of "gourd", just a "boring gourd". In Zhifu's words, it is a gourd mystery of "deceiving" readers and "sneaking around". I remember seeing someone notice this small temple very early, thinking that it may symbolize the ancestral temple of the royal family-the ancestral temple, but it is only limited to symbolizing the imperial power of the Manchu Dynasty. In order to find out what medicine "Hulu" sells, we might as well look at the situation map of the Five Dynasties and Ten Kingdoms period in history. In 960, Chen Qiaoyi in Fengqiu (on the other side of the Yellow River in Kaifeng) rebelled, and Zhao Kuangyin usurped the throne of the Zhou Dynasty and established the Song Dynasty with Kaifeng as its capital. At this time, the separatist forces of the ten countries still have six countries, except Zhao Kuangyin's Song Dynasty; Among them, the Southern Tang Dynasty of Li Yu's family is a territory with strong national strength. After several years of pacification in Song Taizu and Zhao Kuangyin, until the demise of the Southern Tang Dynasty, only the Southern Tang Dynasty, wuyue and Northern Han Dynasty were not unified. Neighboring countries in Southern Tang Dynasty and Northern Song Dynasty, which are just separated by a river, all have their own monarchs. If the world trend is reduced to Shili Street outside the mayor of Gusu. Hulu Temple and Zhen family are neighbors, separated by a wall. Therefore, this wall symbolizes the Yangtze River. Zhenjia is like the Southern Tang Dynasty, and Hulu Temple is the Zhaojiazu Temple in the Song Dynasty on the other side of the Yangtze River. It is called "ancient temple" in the novel, and it is indeed an ancient temple in the Song Dynasty. In this way, Zhen's wife "Shi Feng" means "sealing a shrine", which means Kaifeng public shrine. "Ancestral Temple" and "Ancestral Temple" are only symbols of the Northern Song Dynasty regime; What's more, the Zhen family was burned, and the fire came from the "temple". According to the novel, the fire "burned straight all night and gradually went out, I don't know how much it burned"; Zhao Kuangyin's war, from 1974 to 1975, "burned for a year", burned the Southern Tang Dynasty (Zhen Shi family), and took the opportunity to burn the small separatist forces of Wu Yueguo and Northern Han, 1978, 1979 ". It allowed the Great Song Dynasty to unify the whole country. The Fire in Shili Street-the Struggle for Power. Zhen's yard, naturally unable to resist the fire of Hulu Temple. Zhen, his wife Feng and Ya Jia Jiao Xing were "lucky" not to be burned to death (fortunately Li Yu did not set himself on fire, fortunately his opponent died two years later, fortunately he did not usurp power), so they had no choice but to come. The door in the fourth case of a dream of red mansions, the trial of Hulu by Hulu monk, is the little novice monk of Hulu Temple. As for this fire, it is only a literary metaphor in the novel, and there is no need to delve into it. According to historical records, after the subjugation of the Southern Tang Dynasty, Li Yu and his empresses, including Zhou Xiao, and the ministers and literati with cultural attainments in the Southern Tang Dynasty who were influenced by Li Yu were not killed by Zhao Kuangyin. But to give them better treatment and let them create poems, paintings and novels; This is related to Song Taizu and Zhao Kuangyin's love for literature. In the cultural history of China, Song Ci and Song Painting in Song Dynasty can reach a new peak, and these literati adherents in Southern Tang Dynasty should make indelible contributions! Just like the birth of A Dream of Red Mansions in the prosperous period of Kangxi, although it was not created by adherents in the late Ming Dynasty, the cultural atmosphere in this period was mainly inherited and carried forward by literati in the late Ming Dynasty. Song Taizu and Zhao Kuangyin's recognition of Southern Tang culture can also disprove Li Houzhu's poisoning, which is not caused by his statement that "the old country can't bear to look back on the bright future". After Zhao Kuangyin's death, his younger brother Zhao Kuangyi succeeded to the throne. The legend of "candlelight axe shadow" in history has made people suspect that he is a ruthless and scheming guy who murdered his brother in order to seize power. Poison Li Yu, seize his wife and occupy Zhou Xiao. No matter whether the legends and inferences are true or not, even unofficial history, as a novel writer, may completely embellish and exaggerate. According to superstition, Song Huizong's fate is all the sins of his ancestor Zhao Kuangyi. The so-called "real history is hidden" means that this history is hidden. The stories of You Erjie, Zhang Hua and Feng Jie in A Dream of Red Mansions, Zhang Gongzi, Li Official's Son and Jin Ge in Iron Threshold Temple, and Xue Pan's story of killing Feng Yuan and occupying Xiangling probably all come from this historical legend. Although there are great differences, there are still some clues.
As a character in the novel, Zhen is a special character connecting the preceding with the following. He went to the dreamland and had a spiritual connection with a monk; There was a woman named Xiangling left in the world, and she also helped the later official Jia Yucun. After the third episode of A Dream of Red Mansions, his role has little effect. The key is the homonym of "true Yin Shi": "true concealment" (truth) and "true concealment" (real person). The author skillfully uses Zhen to call a real person and story behind A Dream of Red Mansions-Li Yu (Zhong Yin), the deposed leader of the Southern Tang Dynasty, a fantasy. The comparison between Zhen and Li Yu mentioned in this paper is not to draw the conclusion that Zhen is Li Yu; First of all, the author uses ingenious writing skills, homophonic naming, and borrows the words "truth, reality and yin" to explain the typical examples of the whole Dream of Red Mansions. Secondly, the word "the truth is hidden" is personified and integrated into the role team. Through him, another "dream of red mansions on the back" is roughly deduced and organically combined with this "dream of red mansions on the front". This is the writing of "Direct Criticism": "There are hidden things, there are two strikes, there are business, and the back is full of powder." From Zhen's whereabouts, the writing outline of A Dream of Red Mansions is also given, which is divided into twelve steps, namely:
First, when A Dream of Red Mansions was first opened, Zhen Yin Stone appeared. He concealed a "real history" (not necessarily an official history) of Li Yu and Nantang through his own experience on earth. True Concealment and True Abolition also borrowed the main story of A Dream of Red Mansions-abolishing the owner in the Southern Tang Dynasty. Real people write (hide) books;
Secondly, through the introduction of "Good Song" by Lame Dao, it summarizes four aspects that will be involved in the novel: fame, interest, affection and friendship. Here, "good songs" are only aimed at Li Yu, so only "good" and "good" are needed to succeed in one fell swoop;
Thirdly, Zhen's Interpretation of a Good Song further embodies the general theory of "a good song", specifically to "the bed was full" and "the temples were frosty". In fact, it was Li Yu (Zhen Shi) who interpreted Song of Kindness with his own experience. In fact, the song of easy understanding is based on the pain of Li Yu's national subjugation. After the realization, Zhen and Li parted ways and had no direct relationship with Jia's affairs for the time being. It's just that Zhipi intends to implicate Jia Fu characters in the novel. (Talk about it in another article. )
Fourthly, Zhen Yinshi, a daughter who lost her footing, Xiao Xiangling and a poor Confucian friend, Jia Yucun, left a foreshadowing for the soul of "true waste (emperor)" to enter Jiafu;
Fifth, Leng Zixing's speech in Fu in the second time of A Dream of Red Mansions truly and concretely led Zhen's "goodness" to Jia Fu; Briefly introduce the main characters and scenes in A Dream of Red Mansions.
Sixthly, in A Dream of Red Mansions, the third time Jinling recovered Guo Rongfu in Jia Yucun and adopted Lin Daiyu was the beginning of the novel, and Jia Yucun surfaced. At the fourth time, "the unlucky woman favored the unlucky Lang Hulu monk and sentenced him to a gourd case", at this time, the old things of Xiangling, Yucun and even Hulu Temple surfaced together and will participate in the evolution of Jiafu from the side. In the first time of the novel, Zhen has completed the mission of substitution and began to transform into a savior-like identity. Stay behind the scenes for a while.
Seventh, the fifth time Baoyu saw the pictures and judgments in the book in the "infatuation department" and "unlucky department" in the dreamland, in order to further "transform" Zhen's "The Back of a Dream of Red Mansions" into a typical character story in the novel, and its name is also prophetic. Deliberately give people a sense of mystery in reading "gobbledygook".
Eighth, "Twelve Poems of a Dream of Red Mansions" translates the above-mentioned "heavenly book" into more specific lyrics for readers of a Dream of Red Mansions, and still does not nominate surnames; When you read the corresponding part of the novel, you will suddenly realize.
Ninth, in Jia Baoyu's dreamland, his soul changed from Zhen to Baoyu, or Li Yu's body, body double, became Baoyu, which is like the ghost "possessed" in Pu Songling's Strange Tales from a Lonely Studio. After Baoyu woke up from his dream, he became a relatively independent mature young man with the soul of his late master, simulating the first half of Li Yu's life, until Baoyu lost his psychic Baoyu, got rid of Li Yu's soul, and finally embarked on the road of Shi Tao becoming a monk.
(From the first to the ninth, it is actually the process that the author gradually transferred Li Yu's people, events and souls to Jia Baoyu and Rong. The first five times were shared. )
Tenth, back to 103, Zhen first met Jia Yucun, an important person at that time, in Zhiji County. Jia Yucun should have known this opportunity, but Jia Yucun stuck to his guns and got nowhere.
The eleventh and one hundred and twenty times, Zhen met for the second time in the "Secret Ferry" as a god. Jia Yucun is still at the crossroads of land and water, and it is the intersection of "fans of sleep" and "fans of rice". In Zhen's view, Yucun experienced a lifelong dream, and was demoted from a high official to a common people, but he still didn't wake up. Zhen was helpless.
Twelfth, the end. For the last time, as a fairy, Zhen met a monk and a lame road in the dreamland. This time, although he came to take off Xiangling, he was "registered" with Jingxian. In fact, Zhen, Monk and Tao have been going back and forth to the dreamland to "register". From the death of Qin Keqing, Jia Rui, You Sanjie, Qin Zhong, Qingwen, Daiyu and Wang Xifeng; Liu Xianglian left, Jia Baoyu left, Xi Chun lost her hair, Miao Yu was robbed, and so on. The content of "audit" or "report" is nothing more than that: someone will never realize that he is Gary, and someone will realize that he is Feng when he dies. What wakes up early is that Baoyu wakes up late. Some of them, despite ups and downs and crossing, are stubborn and still sleep in the grass temple at Juemi Ferry.
These are the seven and eight steps in the twelve steps of A Dream of Red Mansions, which are based on Zhen. Although there is no Zhen Yin stone, Jia Baoyu painted a book cloud behind the "lotus flower withering" on the "book supplement" he saw in "unlucky": lotus root stems are fragrant, and life is really painful. Since the two places were lonely trees (Guizi, referring to Jingui), the fragrant soul returned to its hometown (Ling was Gui and died in Pan's home). This is Xiangling. At the end of A Dream of Red Mansions, Zhen took off Xiangling in the dreamland and "registered" with the police illusion. This booklet is the one that Baoyu saw in his dream. It can be seen that Jia Baoyu's dreamland is at least related to Zhen, perhaps because of Zhen's arrangement.
Before and after the two "Dream of Red Mansions" came to an end.
Although Zhen is the protagonist of A Dream of Red Mansions on the Front, he only appears at the beginning and end of A Dream of Red Mansions, but his whereabouts and actions convey the important information of the writing purpose and steps of A Dream of Red Mansions on the Front, which lies in the author's original intention of writing A Dream of Red Mansions and the carefully arranged writing outline: as Zhifu said for the first time, "deep knowledge is hidden" and "one stroke and two sounds". The author wrote a dream of red mansions with a pen: colorful life, all kinds of tragedies, hit it off; The second is that the same pen also wrote another book "The Back of a Dream of Red Mansions", which describes the causes and consequences of the subjugation of monarchs in past dynasties. Although Li Yu is the main example, there are also many royal legacies in the late Ming Dynasty, such as Shi Tao. Both the front and back of A Dream of Red Mansions are skillfully, softly and organically linked with Zhen: not only the first eighty chapters and the last forty chapters of the former Dream of Red Mansions; The same is true of A Dream of Red Mansions on the Back; Be consistent. Although some of them belong to writing skills, it can also be concluded that unless Gao E gets the "true biography" of the top 80 writers, it is impossible to continue writing. If Hong Sheng had not died young, it would have been possible for "one monk (promoted) and one Cao" to co-write A Dream of Red Mansions. Cao Fu, the adopted son of the author Cao Yin, has the conditions to get a "true biography", but there is no need to rewrite it, because the manuscript of Twelve Women in Jinling written by my late father Cao Yin, although incomplete and with few flaws, has been preserved. It is Cao Fu who knows my father's writing intention and inside story, and only he can make important comments on the book under the pseudonym of "abnormal" in his later years. As for Cao (Zhan), the author of A Dream of Red Mansions, who is still recognized by the world, under the guidance of his uncle, he is fully capable of making some textual corrections and supplements to individual plots. Even so, Cao did not finish sorting out and died young.
This is also the wonder of A Dream of Red Mansions!
Zhen is actually a fictional character created by the author to "hide the truth" and "hide the truth". He once secretly played the role of Li Yu, but it was not Li Yu; But the body is double, who is Li Yu, different from Li Yu. It took me a long time to understand the "Tao" theory of vicissitudes of life (lame Tao theory-a good song), but the real Li was still thinking about his "small building" in "Last Night's East Wind" before he was killed, and he was sad that "the reason is still chaotic" (Li Yu's words). There are no immortals in the world; There is "true history" but no "secret history" behind Zhen Yinshi; Of course, the so-called "official history" is not necessarily "official history"; Not to mention a celebrity in the kanggan era. That's all.

Zhao Tingmei (947-984) was originally named Guang Mei. Zhao Kuangyin died in 976, and Zhao Guangyi became the emperor of Song Taizong. In order to avoid the emperor's taboo, Zhao changed his name to.
As the younger brother of two emperors, Zhao Tingmei was quite prominent at first. In the third year of Song Taizu Stegosaurus (AD 962), he was awarded Xingyuan Seal. In the winter of the ninth year of Kaibao (AD 976), he acceded to the throne, was appointed as Yin and the secretariat of Kaifengfu, and made him King of Qi. He is not only in charge of the power of Kaifeng in Beijing, but also above the prime minister in the class at the court meeting, which can be regarded as one person below and above ten thousand people. In the fourth year of Taiping and Xingguo (AD 979), Zhao Tingmei was made King of Qin. However, the good times did not last long. In the seventh year of Taiping and Xingguo (AD 982), Zhao Tingmei was deprived of the throne, reduced to Fuling County, and demoted to Zhoufang (now Fangxian County, Hubei Province) for resettlement. In the first year of Yongxi (AD 984), Zhao Tingmei died of anxiety at the age of 37.
