Early death is Xiao Wan's personal loss, but it is a fortunate thing in the Chinese literature and history, and since then there has been another legend, a sorrow, a wisp of resentment, and a fortune. Five-star General MacArthur said: The red face does not die, but withers, instead of leaving the world an image of an old woman with wrinkled teeth and goosebumps, let her young and beautiful image remain in the shadow of history forever.

Xiao Wan's accidental physical death prolonged her social life. With the death of Dong Xiaowan, there have been many beautiful rumors of Dong Xiaowan in society, and the more and more outrageous, to a certain extent, even overshadowed the official history, which is enough to confuse the public and confuse the truth. Among them, there are three most famous rumors: one is that Shunzhi became a monk because of Dong Xiaowan; second, Mao Dong gave birth to a daughter named Mao Huanlian; and third, Dong Xiaowan is the actual prototype of Lin Daiyu.

All three of these rumors are very exciting, one more imaginative than the other, and they are discussed separately here.

Let's start with the first one. Legend has it that after the Qing army entered the Central Plains, Hong Chengchou fell in love with Dong Xiaowan, and selected materials for Bo Dihuan and the country, and took time out of his busy schedule to send Dong Xiaowan to the palace.

Emperor Shunzhi was fascinated by Dong Xiaowan, he didn't love the country and loved the beauty, there were 3,000 beauties in the harem, and 3,000 favors were all in one.

This matter soon reached the ears of Shunzhi's mother, the strong woman Xiaozhuang Queen Da Yuer. Da Yuer is not very particular about marriage or even very unparticular, strict with others and lenient with herself, and very strict with her son's married life, she dislikes Xiaowan's Han identity and stains the noble Manchu and Mongolian blood of the royal family, dislikes Xiaowan's lowly occupation and ruins her son's reputation, dislikes Xiaowan's fox and charming Tianzi ruined her son's body, and her son who is bewitched treats the rooster as a fly and does not want to go to court early, and dislikes Xiaowan for snatching the love and companionship of his son who accompanies him day and night, so he did not hesitate to force Dong Xiaowan to die in the well.

Shunzhi is the emperor and everything is not going well, thousands of troops and horses can not protect the weak woman he loves, and he is stimulated by schizophrenia to see through the red dust and become a monk in Wutai Mountain. This incident was listed as one of the four major mysteries in the Qing Palace.

This statement is very energetic, very beautiful, and very in line with the beautiful setting of the Chinese people for human nature, but the common sense is full of errors and loopholes: Hong Chengchou is also the crown prince Taibao, the secretary of the military department, the right capital of the Imperial Palace, the military affairs of the inner court, and the secretary of the academy, etc., and is completely the prime minister of the Qing Dynasty, no time, no reason, There is no need to pay attention to the emperor's family affairs to please him, obviously someone forcibly buttoned him a hat for the sake of Hei Hong's promise; Shunzhi basically retained the aesthetic standards of the Manchu people, believing that he was healthy and even strong and beautiful, and in his eyes Dong Xiaowan was not only not beautiful, but completely sick; Shunzhi was only 13 years old when Dong Xiaowan died, and he would not be so serious as to find a married woman half his age; Manchu and Han did not intermarry, and the procedure did not work, and it was impossible for Xiaowan to be named a concubine.

There is no wind and no waves, the source of this statement is actually a homophonic stalk that will be deducted: Shunzhi dotes on a woman named Concubine Dong E, who has the same surname as Dong Xiaowan.

Let's talk about the fact that Mao Dong and the others have a daughter named Mao Huanlian. It is said that Mao Huanlian inherited her mother's beauty and her father's literary talent, and learned medical skills and swordsmanship from Fu Qing, a miracle doctor.

This statement is even more unreliable, and the reason is very simple: Dong Xiaowan is infertile.

The third point is also the most talked-about: Dong Xiaowan is the prototype of Lin Daiyu, and some people even say that the outline of "Dream of Red Mansions" was actually written by Mao Bijiang, Cao Xueqin is a second-inverted trafficker, and the outline of Mao Bijiang has been lengthened and refined and deeply processed, and some people even say that Cao Xueqin is just a fictional character in history, and it is a pen name of Mao Bijiang.

There is a lot of evidence to support the above statement: Dong Lin Er is a stunning beauty, both have lived in Suzhou and Nanjing for a period of time, both have talents in playing the piano, composing poetry, and painting, and they all died of tuberculosis when they were in their prime, that is, they both belong to the "country and city, sentimental and sick" Type;Xiao Wan once buried the remnants of flowers in tears when facing the bleak scenery of late spring, which is consistent with the plot of Daiyu's funeral flowers;Xiao Wan also loves chrysanthemums, and the Mid-Autumn Festival Chrysanthemum Poetry Contest for the National Day was held in the Red Mansion;Mao Bijiang and his life experience are also similar to Jia Baoyu: he hates Baguwen; he lives in the middle of a group of women, spends money like flowing water when he is young, and he falls into trouble when he is old; and the ancestral house of the Mao family is two mansions and one garden, which has a certain similarity with the Grand View Garden and Rongning Erfu in "Dream of Red Mansions"; Mao Bijiang has garden design expertise, and the Mao family has a large number of gardens, which is similar to "Dream of Red Mansions" The furnishings of the CUHK View Garden are similar. Those who are interested can specialize in this point.

In addition, when it comes to Dong Xiaowan, in addition to thinking of Lin Daiyu, we will also think of another person, who is not only a stunning beauty, but also a worker in a green house, and died of tuberculosis at a young age, this is the French Camellia Girl. "Dream of Red Mansions" and "Lady of the Camellias" had accidents more than 100 years earlier, but the heroines of both are a beautiful woman with typical symptoms of lung disease such as thinness, coughing and wheezing, insomnia, flushed cheeks, and loss of appetite. This illustrates two problems: first, morbid beauty is not a Chinese characteristic, not a GB requirement, but an aesthetic standard all over the world, ISO9000 certified series. Second, in the middle of the Qing Dynasty, China was still the representative of advanced culture, leading the world trend, and more than 100 years more advanced than Western culture.

After Dong Xiaowan's death, Mao missed it very much, remembering the green Luo skirt, pity the grass everywhere, with endless thoughts and great grief for Xiao Wan, he took Xiao Wan's maid Wu Buckle into the room.

A few years later, in order to realize Xiaowan's last wish of "you must live happily and happily", at the age of nearly 60, she endured her grief and accepted Cai Nuluo and Jin Xiaozhu as concubines.

When he was nearly 75 years old, he had the idea of a concubine again, but the specific result is unknown.

In addition, Mao Bijiang also has a warm relationship with Wu Ruixian. Wu Ruixian's husband was a comrade and friend of the Restoration Society who braved Xinjiang, and died because of his opposition to the Qing Dynasty and the restoration of the Ming Dynasty. Mao Bijiang took the initiative to take care of the sacred duty of the martyrs, as for whether the friend's wife should not be deceived or the friend's wife was not polite, the historical record is relatively vague.

In 1693, that is, the thirty-second year of Kangxi, Mao Xiang died at the age of eighty-three, a rare long life.

Mao Bijiang has six or seven wives and concubines, and there are more than a dozen good friends, but his body has not been hollowed out, and he is full of energy and life; and Shunzhi, who is a monk who abstinently wants to seek immortality and liberation from Buddhism, was born 27 years later than Mao Bijiang, but he left 32 years earlier, and then I think of the reason given by Mao Bijiang when he refused Shunzhi and Kangxi's invitation to go out: "I am weak and unable to work", which feels strange.

The story is over. The young and young gave up the five lakes in order to become an official, and the middle-aged and old people pretended to be sick in order not to be an official, especially in the second half of their lives, Mao Bijiang was completely a straw in the dung pit - to die, and it was still Wu Dalang who was breastfeeding - jumping on his feet, and he reached the highest state of life in the process - he did not die, lived willfully and casually, and fought with the society and the court for 300 rounds.

Society doesn't get used to anyone, and if you don't obey society, society can crush you to death gently, and you don't even know who you crushed to death. Risking Xinjiang to oppose society, he was naturally crushed by society and eliminated by the trend, and his eighty years of life were almost over.

Regarding his life, the moral gentleman paid attention to his integrity, and praised his poor and refusing to be clear. Ordinary people, on the other hand, deeply sympathize with him for the ups and downs of his life, feel sorry for him, and feel sorry for him, and at the same time have inexplicable resentment -- is this the fate of good people in troubled times? Should people who insist on integrity be punished? Should people with morality and demands have to be depressed all their lives?

Rightly or wrongly, we respect their choice.

The flowers are not blooming and the flowers are thick, and the independent sparse hedge is not endless.

I'd rather die with incense on the branches, and how could he have blown down in the north wind.

And the common people are more about his family affairs, when they mention Mao Bijiang, they think of his women, think of his good fortune, and think of the collection of all kinds of women in his family.

Will Mao Bijiang be happy because of these women? Because the ideal of ordinary people is to ask for a field, a virtuous wife and a beautiful concubine, and children and grandchildren around their knees, they think that the poets have no worries about food and clothing, smile proudly in the rivers and lakes, accompany beautiful women, eat, drink and have fun, and have no official body.

If you venture to open up Xinjiang, you will be happy, but you must be unhappy, indignant and unwilling, even if you raise your eyebrows to the end, there are two reasons.

First, good men are determined to be in the world, good men are at home all over the world, and good men are thinking about the common people, and they have never said that good men have wives and concubines. When a person is very good, or thinks he is very good, the three views will be raised, the career will go beyond the family, the future will surpass the woman, the career is a must, the woman is the embellishment, and the family and the woman are just by-products on the way to pursue the career. Their career is always to govern the country and level the world, even if it is Liu Yong who "can sing willow words wherever there is well water", even if it is Qin Shaoyou who "does not see Qin Huaihai and has been lonely in the world for five hundred years", they have made great achievements in poetry, won the reputation of the people, and can even stay for eternity, but what they think about is the recognition of the imperial court, and they think about an official and a half-position, they are only willing to live in the moment and use their fame to change for a cadre position, so they will be full of resentment.

It's the same with Mao Bijiang, in the depths of his heart, no matter how many women there are, they are not as good as a diploma and an appointment letter.

The second reason why Mao Bijiang is unhappy is that there is no Chen Yuanyuan among these women.

Virtuous and kind, we can't let Mrs. Su become Chen Yuanyuan, the kitchen lady can't let Dong Xiaowan become Chen Yuanyuan, and the white skin and beauty can't let Li Siniang become Chen Yuanyuan, as long as it's not Chen Yuanyuan, everything loses its meaning. There is no way to make up the quality and quantity, and no matter how many women there are, they can't match a Chen Yuanyuan. If you have a round circle, you are willing to give up the principle of "a gentleman who cooks far away" and become a cook, willing to develop "meat" and "sugar" by himself. I wish to win the hearts of one person, and the white head will not be separated, and he may be willing to use all the marriage in this life in exchange for his appearance with Chen Yuanyuan.

Whether he wants to be mixed up with women or not, whether he is only in love with one person in his life, Mao Bijiang's reputation in private life is very bad, which is also the final and most vivid impression he left on history.
