Among the twelve hairpins of Jinling, if you want to say that the most mysterious character, except for Qin Keqing, is Miaoyu.
The background of Qin Keqing, the cause of death, personal emotions, and even the entire funeral are full of mystery and confusion, which makes readers feel very confused. As a result, they have been working hard in the field of red studies, forming a unique school of "Qin studies", which will not be mentioned here. Compared with Qin Keqing, the mystery of Miaoyu is slightly inferior, especially Miaoyu's birth background and fate, which has always been speculated and difficult for readers to reach a consensus.
Regarding Miaoyu's background, it can be seen from many subtleties that this young woman is anything but unusual:
First of all, when Lin Zhixiao came to introduce Miaoyu to everyone, he expressed his opinion like this:
There was a woman who led the practice of hair cultivation, she was originally a resident of Suzhou, and her family was also a family of scholars and eunuchs. Since the woman was unwell since she was a child, she bought a lot of stand-ins, but none of them worked. It wasn't until she personally entered the empty door that she was truly **. Therefore, the age of the cultivation is only eighteen years old, and the Dharma name is Miaoyu. Now that her parents have died, only two old grandmothers and a little girl serve by her side. Her ** is very good at interpreting the innate god number, but she died last winter. Miaoyu originally planned to help Ling return to her hometown, but her ** told her on her deathbed that her lifestyle was not suitable for returning to her hometown, and she lived a peaceful life here, but in the end she did not return to her hometown. ”
Please forgive us for the abundance of original quotes here, and we cannot simply simplify them, as each sentence contains a very rich amount of information. What does this mean?
First of all, Miaoyu's parents didn't want her to become a monk in the first place, so they bought a large number of stand-ins to replace her as a monk, which required huge financial support and was unaffordable for the average wealthy family.
Furthermore, the temple where Miaoyu practiced was located in Panxiang Temple, Xuanshan Mountain, Suzhou, which is a famous Buddhist holy place in the country, and even if there is enough wealth, there is no guarantee of access;
Moreover, although Miaoyu chose to live as a monk, she was still accompanied by two grandmothers and a little girl, which even surpassed the pomp and circumstance when Daiyu entered Jiafu;
Fourthly, Miaoyu's mentor is a famous figure who excels in the number of innate gods, but despite this, he has a very high level of support for Miaoyu, what does this mean?
In the section "Jia Baoyu Tea Cui'an", Miaoyu uses tea utensils that Jiafu does not have. As Miaoyu pointed out, "You may not be able to find such a glamorous thing in your family", who gave this arrogance and self-confidence the confidence?
All this proves that the social status of the Miaoyu family in the Jia Mansion is indisputable. Throughout her life, she has always been at the center of power and is a veritable "official wife".Her father was a talent, but due to his poor family background, he had no opportunity to study, so he had to work as a farmer at home. During this period, Jiafu was not only the "two dukes" of the four kings and eight dukes, but also became a relative of the royal family because of Yuanchun's status as a concubine, and its status and honor almost reached an unprecedented height. Therefore, Miaoyu's father is not just a simple scholar, he is at least an important figure on a par with the status of the Four Kings.
So, who is this person? Among them, the character of "the eldest prince of the righteous and loyal palace who has done bad things" is the most important. Judging from the whole article, the princes of the county who appeared include the four princes of Nan'an County, Dongping County, Xining County and Beijing County, and in his demographics, it is the King of Zhongshun and the Prince of Yizhong who committed "bad things" Lao Chitose. In this group of people, the four county kings all appeared at Qin Keqing's funeral, which is enough to prove that they have nothing to do with Miaoyu. As for King Zhongshun, he had almost no contact with Jiafu, and there was no reasonable reason to send his daughter to Jiafu.
For the "bad thing" Prince Yoshitada, Lao Chitose, many readers think that he is Miaoyu's father. But considering that Prince Yizhong's old Chitose and Emperor Taishang were the same generation, he may not have been ten years old when he "did something bad", so it is unlikely that such an old Prince Yizhong would have such a young daughter.
In addition to the five kings mentioned, there is also a special mention of a prince in the article, and that is the third time. When Daiyu entered the mansion, she saw a couplet made of ebony wood and inlaid with chiseled silver in Jia Zheng's Rongxi Hall, which read like this:
The jewels on the seats shimmered with the light of the sun and the moon, while the front of the hall was filled with smoke and glow. The following line of small characters reads: "The handwritten book of the fellow townsman of the world's religious brother Xun Xun attacked the king of Dong'an County".
In the previous article, we have learned that one of the four kings is the king of Dongping, so why is there a new king of Dong'an suddenly here? Because his death was related to the timing of his father's death, the cause of his death was murder. What is even more interesting is that Qin Keqing's funeral attracted many nobles and princes and nobles, who came to pay their respects, but few Dong'an Junwang who was so close to Jiafu appeared. This is because he did not leave a will after his death, and no one would have erected a monument for him, so it is impossible to determine exactly where he died. Therefore, it is certain that this king of Dong'an has died, after which Dong'an changed its name to Dongping. In ancient times, the imperial palace where the crown prince lived was known as the "East Palace", does this imply that there is some kind of relationship between the prince and the crown prince, which makes Dong'an feel "uneasy?" Or, was his father King Yizhong? In short, the behavior of this county king is similar to that of Prince Yizhong, both of whom are "screwed up".
So, is it possible that this prince is Miaoyu's biological father? In the third chapter describing the couplet of the king of Dong'an, the fat critic wrote: "First of all, the pen is empty", which indicates that the king of Dong'an is a volcanic line, and when the king of Dong'an dies, the next thing that appears is the identity of a deceased. There have always been different opinions on this issue, and there is no consensus on it. Who is most likely to be associated with the deceased county king? She is not only beautiful but also has an intelligent, virtuous temperament. When we look at these key figures in Jiafu, only the "golden jade" Miaoyu can match them. So, how exactly did she get here? Among the twelve hairpins in Jinling, Miaoyu is the only one who has a blood relationship with Jiafu. Surprisingly, Miaoyu was ranked sixth, which is really unacceptable, and only shows that there is a connection between her and Jia Fu that cannot be made public. There is a deep bond between Miaoyu's father and Jiafu.
It is conceivable that at about the age of 8, Miaoyu began her spiritual journey and left the palace. Before the action, the king of Dong'an transferred the treasures of his family from the palace and put them in Panxiang Temple, so that Miaoyu was in charge of safekeeping, also to ensure that nothing went wrong. Miaoyu lived in Panxiang Temple for many years, and her appearance became more outstanding and elegant, attracting the coveted of many princes and grandchildren. In fact, Miaoyu has been suppressed by power, which is why there was later Miaoyu's saying that "the princely mansion oppresses people with power, and I will not go again", which further proves that Miaoyu was oppressed by the wealthy mansion. Later, perhaps Miaoyu's uniqueness aroused some suspicions, and her teacher hurriedly took her out of Suzhou and secretly went to the capital to seek refuge in Jiafu, and specifically warned her that she "should not return to her hometown".
It's a pity that no matter how cautious Miaoyu's ** is, or how powerful Jiafu is, Miaoyu can't escape the unfortunate fate on the day he loses power. No matter how noble her heart is, or how pure her vision is, she will succumb to the pressure of reality and eventually sink into the mire.
