Another life of Xifeng, the king of the Red Chamber

Character analysis from 360 Encyclopedia:

Wang Xifeng ---- the real housekeeper of Jia's house.She is aggressive and insolent.Articulate.Good at flattery and flattery, seeing Wang Xifeng making the helm, likes to use power and show off privileges.She sits high on the throne of the housekeeper of hundreds of people in Jia's house. Her eloquence and power are her weapons to flatter her superiors and inferiors, and her goal is to seize power and steal wealth.She exerts political strategy machine to change extremely, cruel mean ability matter, although the Jia Rui this kind of Wanzi died all his crimes, but "poison sets up lovesickness bureau" also shows the ruthlessness of its revenge. For a bribe of 3000 taels of silver, "playing power in Tiekan Temple" forced Zhang's daughter and the son of Chang'an's defense both to commit suicide.Second Sister You and her unborn baby were also killed by Wang Xifeng in the most cunning and vicious way.She blatantly declared: "I never believe in retribution from the underworld. Whatever it is, I will do it!" The ladder of hundreds or even thousands of silver comes from the interest of others.When ransacking the house, [-] to [-] gold and a box of coupons were copied from her house.What Wang Xifeng did was undoubtedly accelerating the decline of the Jia family, and finally ended up with the end of "the organ was too clever to calculate, and it cost Qingqing's life".

Analysis of Wang Xifeng's image The artistic image of Wang Xifeng in "Dream of Red Mansions" is rich and complex. Since "Dream of Red Mansions" came out, in the history of red studies, there have been many comments on Wang Xifeng. Traitor", called Wang Xifeng "female Cao Cao" and "Rouge Tiger", which is a tigress.In many comments, it is "hate Sister Feng, scold Sister Feng, miss Sister Feng when I don't see Sister Feng", this is probably a feeling that every fan of "Dream of Red Mansions" will have.

New interpretation of characters

In the long course of history, most of the views on Wang Xifeng are belittled, which once became the mainstream view in history, including some researchers of the Dream of Red Mansions.In recent years, there have also been those who have repositioned Wang Xifeng's role, including some Red Mansion researchers, some folk Red Mansion lovers, and some even complained about her.

Convergence of main points of view

(1) The character of Wang Xifeng has a strong social side, very lifelike and realistic.Fundamentally, it is symmetrical to virtualized characters like Jia Baoyu and Lin Daiyu. In real life, Jia Baoyu and Lin Daiyu are hard to find, but Wang Xifeng is everywhere.Therefore, when positioning a role like Wang Xifeng, one should have different vision and standards.

(2) Some new interpreters of the Dream of Red Mansions believe that it is biased to use "Jia Rui's death, the second sister You's death, and Wang Xifeng's self-interest in everything" in the traditional sense to portray Wang Xifeng as an image that everyone scolds. Even the misreading and misunderstanding of "emotional and conceptual".At the same time, when analyzing Jia Rui's death and the death of Second Sister You, it is impossible to put all the blame on Sister Feng. I think that is too one-sided and not in line with objectivity.Some fans of the Red Chamber wrote a blog post pointing out that "the deaths of Jia Rui and Second Sister You, and the power-gathering of Tiekan Temple resulted in the death of Brother Zhang Jin and the garrison son" all have their own subjective factors, and are also related to the relevant objective environment.It seems too much to completely blame Wang Xifeng, which seriously deprives people of the attributes of the unity of sociality and nature.

(3) As a woman in the feudal society, Wang Xifeng has advanced independent femininity consciousness, and especially hates patriarchy. In "A Dream of Red Mansions", she shows her hatred and disgust for her husband Jia Lian, but she dare not express it strongly. It's just the expression of sharp words, scolding Jia Lian severely, and mocking Jia Lian.Jia Lian cheated on many girls and Bao's second daughter-in-law. Wang Xifeng was very angry when she found out, but the feudal patriarchal ethics of three wives and four concubines oppressed Sister Feng. In the end, Jia Lian secretly married the second sister You. Wang Xifeng couldn't bear it and finally broke out , coupled with Jia Lian's concubine Qiutong and the maid's embellishment, caused the second sister You to commit suicide by swallowing gold.From the perspective of an objective woman, Wang Xifeng is also a victim of feudal patriarchy, and she deserves sympathy.A blog post by a fan of Red Mansions pointed out that it is a "battle of honor and disgrace among women".

(4) "About Wang Xifeng flattering Jia Mu", new interpreters believe that it is too wrong to use this to criticize Wang Xifeng.Wang Xifeng is a person who likes to talk and laugh. He handles things quickly and vigorously, and he is eloquent, eloquent, and eloquent. It is not surprising that he can make Jiamu happy.Some lovers of Red Mansions pointed out that Jia Mu is an old man who looks for pleasure on the surface but is actually an old man who knows the world. Wang Xifeng is good at building a good relationship with her superiors, and her superiors are her elders. Too much.What's more, there are not many people in the world who can please the elders, and those who cannot please the elders are often said to be disrespectful.It was really embarrassing for Sister Feng.

(5) "About Wang Xifeng's withholding of monthly payments and loan usury, etc.", new interpreters believe that Wang Xifeng, as the manager of Jia's family, has the right to handle and arrange finances.It can be seen from the article that Wang Xifeng has no intention of withholding the monthly money and not paying it. It is only because of usury investment that sometimes the payment is delayed. Moreover, "lending usury" was legal in feudal society, which is similar to the legality of stock trading today. Wang Xifeng used In investing to support the expenses of Jia's family, it shows that he has a sense of responsibility and is good at financial management and family management.

(6) The blog post of the new interpreter pointed out that Wang Xifeng has a vision of appreciating talents, and she can take Lin Xiaohong in her eyes and keep her under her door, which is unparalleled in Jia's mansion.He also pointed out that Wang Xifeng's talent is unmatched by anyone in the Jia family. Although Xue Baochai understands the etiquette of human relations and poetry, but in terms of practical ability, he cannot catch up with Wang Xifeng.

(7) The new interpreters pointed out that Wang Xifeng had conflicts with Mrs. Xing and Aunt Zhao, etc., and especially made great contributions to restraining the villain Aunt Zhao in Jiajiarong's house, so she was not considered a villain.

(8) With regard to the decline of the Jia family, new interpreters believe that the so-called Suoyin homonym method, etc., Wang Xifeng Yaodi version cannot explain that Wang Xifeng was responsible for all the crimes.The declining family of the Jia family, when Leng Zixing gave a speech at the Rongguo Mansion, pointed out that when Wang Xifeng arrived at the Jia family, the Jia family was already going from bad to worse. Except for Wang Xifeng, can the women in the mansion get away with it?It is impossible.Therefore, Wang Xifeng cannot be blamed for the annihilation of the Jia family.

(9) Wang Xifeng, in the end, she cried even more sadly about the Jinling incident, and Qiaojie's death, etc., were fatal blows to Wang Xifeng.As the person in power of the Jia family, there is no reason to push the Jia family to a dead end. Wouldn't that mean breaking their own way.Wang Xifeng is also a tragic character, who was "beaten out of the head" with a stick, and when he fell into trouble, it was difficult to end well.

All in all, the role of Wang Xifeng has been discussed and commented a lot by people.Someone commented: "Wang Xifeng, Wang Xifeng, I lamented your good fate and lamented your poor fate, saying that you are talented and magnificent, but you don't know that you are easy to be disliked by others. You have been tired of yourself and your family all your life, but you are resented by others. You are clever and play tricks. , Unexpectedly, one trick can kill her life, her heart is not really poisonous, her methods are harsh, her body is delicate, her actions are straightforward, she is a real woman, a real woman."

As for the reader's understanding, according to someone's words, ""Dream of Red Mansions" has been circulated for hundreds of years, and Ah Feng has also been in people's minds for hundreds of years. His image may not be fully finalized, but it will be more deeply rooted in the hearts of the people. Doubtful."
