Cao Xueqin's grandfather, Cao Yin, was a close associate of Kangxi. Three generations of his grandfather and grandson were responsible for weaving in Jiangning for 60 years. The Cao Mansion was as grand as the Jia Mansion in "A Dream of Red Mansions". At the end of the fifth year of Yongzheng's reign, when Cao Xueqin was 13 years old, his family was dismissed for crimes and their property confiscated. Cao Xueqin moved back to Beijing with his mother, and the Cao Mansion fell into decline. Cao Xueqin created "A Dream of Red Mansions" based on the rise and fall of his family. A large number of stories and character prototypes come from the family life that he has been exposed to since childhood.
