Who is the fat Yan Zhai in the dream of Red Mansions

Many red scholars have studied and believed that Yan Zhai is the prototype of Shi Xiangyun in the book.

I can't tell! There is speculation that it is Cao Xueqin's elders, because there is criticism in the rhetoric.

The main content of the Dream of Red Mansions is the first eighty chapters.

Dream of Red Mansions, formerly known as "The Story of the Stone", is a long story in ancient Chinese chapters and hui, and one of the four great classics of Chinese classics. There are a total of 120 chapters of its popular version, and it is generally believed that the first 80 chapters were written by the Qing Dynasty writer Cao Xueqin, and the last 40 chapters were written by anonymous people, which were sorted out by Gao He and Cheng Weiyuan. Jinling** takes the rise and fall of the four major families of Jia, Shi, Wang, and Xue as the background, and takes the rich son Jia Baoyu as the perspective.

With Jia Baoyu, Lin Daiyu and Xue Baochai's love and love and marriage tragedy as the main line, it depicts the life of some boudoir beauties, showing the real beauty of human nature and tragedy. The Dream of Red Mansions version has two systems: 120 "Cheng Ben" and 80 "Fat Ben".

The Cheng book is a typeset copy by Cheng Weiyuan, and the lipo copy is an early manuscript copied and commented by Yan Zhai at different times. The fat book is the base of the Cheng book. "Dream of Red Mansions" is a world-influential encyclopedia of human feelings, Chinese feudal society, and a collection of traditional culture.

The author of the book exhorts himself to "talk about love and record his affairs", only according to his own situation, follow the traces, get rid of the old clichés, fresh and chic, and have achieved extraordinary artistic achievements. The special penmanship of "the truth is hidden, and the false words are preserved" has opened the minds of later readers, and there have been many speculations over time.

Ideological content

Dream of Red Mansions comprehensively and profoundly reflects the characteristics of the times when feudal society flourished and declined. What it depicts is not a love story of "flowers and candles in the cave room and the title of the gold list"; Instead, he wrote about the love and marriage tragedy between the feudal aristocratic young Jia Baoyu, Lin Daiyu, and Xue Baochai.

**The great social significance lies in the fact that it does not describe this love tragedy in isolation, but takes this love and marriage tragedy as the center, and writes the rise and fall of the four representative families of Jia, Wang, Shi and Xue at that time, which is centered on Jiafu, exposing all kinds of darkness and sins in the later period of feudal society.
