Are you going to take You Sanjie in the end or not? If you do, you'll always end up in prison getting groped by the guards. It's disgusting. Your womanizing skills are terrible. Can't you use your power to bully people?
Take them all?
Yuan Ying and Tan Xi are Jia Lian's cousins, how can he accept them? Please don't make it up that Jia Lian isn't their biological son again. I'm tired of it.
The new version of Dream of the Red Chamber has already been collected by old men.
The plot about their divorce at the beginning of the book is a bit messy. The key issue is that even after the divorce, Wang Xifeng is still running around the Rong Mansion. She's completely shameless; how could she possibly care about Qin Keqing? This is worse than death for her. And what's more, her assets aren't even listed in the divorce papers? That's the biggest problem.
No wonder *Dream of the Red Chamber* is considered a remarkable book. The interpretations circulating online are quite accurate. What exactly did Daiyu bury when she buried the flowers? What was Xue Baochai's Cold Fragrance Pill made of? It's no wonder that, personally, I prefer Lin Daiyu to Xue Baochai.
Wang Ziteng wasn't used by the Jia family because no one else had inherited their military legacy; he was incompetent, so how did he become the Jia family's right-hand man? This is putting the cart before the horse! Furthermore, the Jia family didn't properly cultivate an heir, seemingly hoping for the family's annihilation? And he even has the title of Marquis of En?
To be honest, I've never opened any of Jia Lian's works. Because I strongly dislike the practice of including all or randomly selected works from the Dream of the Red Chamber novel. The dividing line is Sister Feng: firstly, she opposes married women being considered secondhand; secondly, she is illiterate, ruthless, capricious, jealous, greedy, and lacks intelligence.
Daiyu and Baochai are the most beautiful; if you disagree, come and argue.
Personally, I think the 1987 TV series "Dream of the Red Chamber" is the most faithful to the original novel. The most beautiful scene: Daiyu's hand (Upon arriving at the Jia Mansion, before seeing her, one sees her jade-like hand). Baochai's skin (her skin was smooth and supple, just like Yang Guifei's). Daiyu and Baochai are definitely the most prominent figures among the Twelve Beauties.
Explanation of the setting of Emperor Taizu
It's mentioned in *Dream of the Red Chamber* that Lin Ruhai's ancestors were marquises, and Lin Ruhai was the fifth generation. Assuming an average lifespan of 20 years per generation, the dynasty depicted in *Dream of the Red Chamber* spans at least a century. Lin Ruhai's Lin family should be among the founding fathers who rose to prominence alongside the founding emperor.
The book review section is now corrupt and full of scoundrels, precisely because of insufficient updates. If authors diligently updated 10,000 words every day, the scoundrels would retreat in fear, and virtuous gentlemen would rejoice. This would be an achievement worthy of praise even from the legendary emperors Yao and Shun! I've heard that calves born in sheepfolds grow up behaving like sheep.
