Wang Xifeng s joke seems to be ordinary, but it hides the time of Jia Yuanchun s death

Mondo Culture Updated on 2024-02-20

Wang Xifeng was born in the royal family of the four major families in Jinling, although she was born into a prominent family, she behaved like a cultured man from an early age, so she has an optimistic personality and speaks fluently, of course, her strategy and mind are also difficult for ordinary men to match.

When Daiyu entered the mansion for the third time, Wang Xifeng appeared in a way of "hearing his voice first and then seeing his person". After that, she skillfully maneuvered between Jia's mother, Mrs. Wang, and other sisters, showing her social skills and adaptability. This not only proves her special status in the Jia Mansion, but also shows her wit and frankness. Since then, whenever Wang Xifeng appears, it has always been full of joy and laughter. Therefore, at the seventy-sixth Mid-Autumn Festival banquet, Wang Xifeng was unable to attend due to health reasons, which made Jia's mother feel very regretful and commented:

She made Feng Yatou sick again, and having her alone to chat and joke is worth the emptiness of ten people."

Wang Xifeng's key role on many occasions was described by Jia Mu in her words.

In the fifty-fourth episode, at the Lantern Festival banquet in Jiafu, although Wang Xifeng was pregnant, she still tried her best to please Jia's mother and others. For example, after "breaking the lie", Jia Mu summarized it interestingly by imitating the oral kiss in the storytelling, and behaved very vividly, as if it could be said in one sentence. He jokingly said that the dress was designed to imitate the "colorful costume", just to make Jia's mother laugh.

Next, everyone is beating drums, passing flowers and telling jokes, and Wang Xifeng, as a representative of jokes, will naturally not be easily let go by everyone. Unexpectedly, under the arrangement of the maids, when the flower reached her hand, the drumming suddenly stopped.

On this occasion, Wang Xifeng shared two funny jokes. One of them is about the New Year's festival, where people sit around a table and enjoy good wine, which makes everyone confused and bored.

There is also a legend about the deaf people firing artillery battles: in the Great New Year, several people went out of the city with huge artillery battles, but a person who was waiting eagerly lit the artillery battles first, causing everyone to disperse. The men in charge of carrying the guns complained that the workers who sold the guns were not of good workmanship and were not strong enough, and that they had dispersed even before the guns were finished. It sounds funny, but it speaks to the hearts of many deaf people. In fact, the artillery battle was carried by a deaf man.

In this joke, two "scattered" things are mentioned in a row, but neither of them is elaborated. In that joke of setting off fireworks, there are "scattered" everywhere. .In that joke told with a smile, the word "scattered" was everywhere. In this joke of firing fireworks, Guan Hejia Yuanchun's figure can be seen everywhere.

The first thing to be clear is that Yuan Chun was born in the month of the Great Lunar New Year and was canonized as a concubine, which made the power of Jiafu even stronger. Yuanchun's status is like that huge artillery battle, attracting countless people to come.

Next, in the twenty-second episode, Yuan Chun once ordered the eunuch to provide her sisters with a lantern riddle, and the content of this lantern riddle is as follows:

It has the ability to make demons tremble, and the body seems to be bound by the power of silk and thunder. A deafening sound was terrifying, but when he looked back, he found that everything had been reduced to ashes.

The answer is actually very straightforward, that is, artillery battles, which is also Yuan Chun's prophecy.

Although the splendor of Yuanchun is like a cannonball, dazzling, it is only a temporary existence, so it is only a temporary glory, and the short-term glory will eventually bring about the disappearance. It's all due to her character weaknesses and tragic endings – she doesn't have an accurate grasp of her fate. Regarding Yuan Chun's life trajectory, her Dream of Red Mansions "Hate Impermanence" is quite clear:

Joy and glory are at the right time, but unfortunately the impermanence of fate has come again. Look at the present day, I have lost my heart! In desperation, everything is left behind; Homesickness is keen, longing for relatives and hate. Roaming the world, consuming the fragrant soul. Homesickness is strong, and tears are full. Looking at the hometown, the road is far away, and the mountain peaks are steep. Therefore, I tell my parents in their dreams: the child's life has come to an end, spending time with the family, it is time to step back and withdraw early!

Just now, he was still indulging in the happiness of luxury and wealth, but he didn't expect things to happen suddenly, and Yuan Chun unfortunately died. What's even more shocking is that before Yuan Chun died, she had tried to see her in the dream of Jia Zheng and his wife, which was an unexpected event, and Yuan Chun had no warning about it.

What was the cause of Motoharu's death? What color is the bow? From his verdict, we can see a painting showing a bow with a citron hanging from it. In fact, bows and arrows are the same thing, but they are used to describe the human body. The citron mentioned here actually refers to Yuanchun, but what about the bow? This depiction is obviously not intended to describe the palace, but to let the reader know that she lived in the palace, so her lifestyle is particularly important. Although many people use the word "palace" to describe it, in other judgments, even the most complex buildings are described in detail, such as the deserted village and wild shop in Sister Qiao's judgment, the skyscrapers in Qin Keqing's judgment, and the ancient temple in Xichun's judgment. Therefore, if the author only wants to describe Yuan Chun living in the imperial palace, he is more than capable of replacing it with a palace, and not perfunctory.

Therefore, the bow may have other meanings, and I personally think it may be a hint that Yuan Chun will end up strangled by this bow. "The bow is not broken, and the soul is broken. This is highly consistent with the way Yang Guifei died, especially during Yuan Chun's provincial relatives, he pointed out the poem "Qiqiao", and the fat critic wrote: "The Palace of Eternal Life" describes the death of Fu Yuanfei. This play is also based on "The Palace of Eternal Life". The work "Palace of Eternal Life" mainly tells the past between Yang Guifei and Tang Xuanzong.

Therefore, the story of the artillery battle described by Wang Xifeng is actually implying that after Yuan Chun's death, the Jia family will also face the situation of "the monkey fleeing from the tree", everyone should disperse, and what makes people feel even more sad is the specific time of Yuan Chun's death.

After Wang Xifeng finished telling that joke, everyone couldn't help laughing, and then Wang Xifeng suddenly laughed:

It's late at night outside, and according to me, our ancestors are exhausted, and we should 'deaf people scatter with cannons'. ”

In other words, at the fourth watch of the Lantern Festival, the Jia family was about to face the fate of disbandment, due to the unfortunate death of Yuan Chun. Of course, there is an implicit saying about Yuan Chun's death on the fourth watch day of the Lantern Festival, that is, the time when Yuan Chun returned to the palace when he visited relatives during the Lantern Festival was exactly three quarters of an hour old, and that was also the time of the fourth watch. Therefore, on the day of Yuanchun's funeral, the concubines would go to send the coffin. Time is so closely linked that it is definitely not something that can be explained by a simple word.

Motoharu had an accident in the middle of the night, which is why she eagerly told her parents in her dreams that she needed to "back off and quit". When I woke up from the dream, I found that my father had died. This woman, who was regarded by the family as a bargaining chip for turnover, finally died due to abnormal reasons, and was strangled alive in the days of family reunion.

From this point of view, many people feel that the demise of Zhen Shiyin's family hints at the Jia family, which may be reasonable, because the Zhen family was destroyed during the Lantern Festival, and the Jia family lost Yuan Chun during the Lantern Festival, so they sang sheng songs in the courtyard and built a platform under the lights!
