Harry Potter’s Morning Light

   Chapter 2115 Flower War (twenty-three)

Chinese ancient poems use a lot of metaphors, such as mausoleums, also known as "green mounds", longing for distant friends is called "spring trees and clouds", rich daughters' boudoirs are "red buildings", poor daughters' rooms are It's the "green window".

   So does Dream of Red Mansions refer to "Dream of a Rich House"?

This allusion is said to come from Bai Juyi's poem "Rich Women in Red Mansions". The Dream of Red Mansions indeed tells the stories of young boys and girls from big families. However, the real activities of the beauties in the Dream of Red Mansions are few and far between, at least not with the rich social life of Parisian women. compared to. Although the author tries to give them different personalities, they are almost blank except for their various love affairs and poetry with Jia Baoyu. In contrast, "Phoenix Spicy" Wang Xifeng is completely upside down. She can't read a single poem, but it doesn't affect her articulation at all, and her words are full of all kinds of afterthoughts.

  At first Nick thought it was the writer's lack of writing ability, but later he understood how realistic the writer was and why the priest used medical treatment as an excuse to encourage women to leave the house.

If you want to have an accurate understanding of the temperament of Chinese women, you need to know what kind of character husbands want their wives to have. For example, the society praises women for being filial and obedient, taking good care of parents and children, and doing things quietly, then she must have been raised like this since she was a child. . In addition, except for books such as "Biography of Women", they rarely have access to other reading materials. Even when the troupe comes, they cannot attend the auditorium. They can only listen in the "Flower Hall" with a fence on the side. , and even some husbands and fathers do not allow them to do so, because the lyrics in the troupe occasionally contain dirty jokes, which they think are not suitable for "good family women" to listen to.

They were locked in the boudoir when they were very young, and they learned the knowledge they needed to use after they got married. They didn't understand human anatomy or gravity. Except for burning incense in the temple or taking a boat to relax, they had the opportunity to get out of the boudoir and get in touch with the outside world. From this, you can see In the opera, the encounter between a scholar and a young lady often happens in places such as temples.

  This time to worship Mazu may be one of the few opportunities for Wanning to go out. Even if she sits in the sedan chair, she will still open the sedan curtain and look at the city of Guangzhou where she has lived for three years like a newcomer.

   Then Nick remembered that her eyes had only undergone surgery to see things clearly, so she saw everything was fresh, and her eyes were still as bright as they were hiding in the dark of the sedan chair.

   Rather than saying that this education method restricts their intellectual development, "a woman is virtuous without talent", it is better to say that it stifles their nature. After all, men don't want to have a wife like Pan Jinlian.

   This is not only because she is a slave to lust, but also because of her indifference to family affection, jealousy and all kinds of hurtful hearts.

  In the Middle Ages, there was a religious drama called "Ordinary People". It played a person who wanted to see the Creator after death and had to settle his life's good and evil accounts, which contained common life problems.

   He remembered that Wu Song later became a "walker", a monk with half hair.

  Wu Song committed "嗔", he killed Pan Jinlian to avenge his brother, completely disregarding his niece.

  Ximen Qing is guilty of "greed". If he can be restrained and not indulge in **** like this, he can not only save his life, but also take advantage of the superior conditions to live better than most people in Qinghe County.

In Buddhism, "idiot" refers to stupidity, but "idiot" also means fascinated. Wu Song was the first man Pan Jinlian loved. When she heard him begging for marriage, she agreed. When she saw Wu Song, the first one was Thinking of the marriage, she wanted to keep this marriage in her home, but she never thought that the day she passed the door would be the time when she died.

   In order to take revenge, Wu Song does not care about the accusations of those around him. Anger, like love and greed, can overwhelm people's minds.

Ximen Qing's vague rationality made him realize that the clever Pan Jinlian was not his favorite. However, when he was dying, he still hoped that his wives and concubines could guard his spirit, and remember to be for Pan when arranging funerals. Jinlian's future life plan, when Wu Yueniang came, interceded for Pan Jinlian, worried that Pan Jinlian would have no place in this family after her death.

   It's hard to say whether this kind of relationship is love, but "one day husband and wife a hundred days of kindness", "people are dying, their words are also good."

  According to Juren, people can see ghosts before they die. Ximen Qing saw Hana Zixu and Wu Dalang standing in front of him and asked him to collect debts.

   Dou E is a young woman who was accused of poisoning her father-in-law because she was framed. The deceased's son brought her to the government. The unconscious officer ignored Dou E's repeated appeals and sentenced her to death. She was taken to the execution ground and executed. After that, the emperor decreed to send high-ranking officials to investigate the situation of the people and retry the cases that had been sentenced. This high-ranking official was Dou E's father, of course he didn't know that this **** case had made him lose his daughter forever. After he left his daughter, something happened, and her daughter changed her name. He didn't know all this, and he was kept in the dark. However, just when he was going to read all the files of the case, he felt sleepy, and then he closed his eyes and fell asleep.

   At this moment, a ghost appeared. It was Dou E's grievance. She walked in, looked around, and wept sadly. When the old man saw her sad look in his dream, he also choked up. Then he suddenly woke up, but found that there were only two people in the room, he and the clerk, while the history of the book was sleeping. There seems to be a shadow in the room that is always flickering lightly in the candlelight Zhou Guo, the candlelight becomes erratic, flickering and extinguishing, every time the old man gets up and wants to put the wick away, the ghost will turn back the file he just read. on an unjust judgment. In the end, Dou E finally appeared in front of her father. Seeing this scene, my father couldn't help being frightened, but as soon as he came back to his senses, he began to inquire about the case, as if she was still alive.

   She lives as a "person", more alive than the young ladies in A Dream of Red Mansions, although she lives in a "green window".

   After Ximen Qing died, Pan Jinlian was almost sold, just like those noble ladies after the collapse of Jia's house, "Feng Lazi" was also buried in a roll of straw, just like when she dealt with servants before.

   Juren once told him a story recorded in "The Firefly Window". The literati in his time liked to write ghost stories, and they were still "ancient". This may be one of the few topics that don't need to worry about the literal prison.

   A man surnamed Yu became the son-in-law of a family surnamed Shen. Shen was very beautiful and liked to dress up very much. He often dressed in front of a mirror from the Tang and Song Dynasties.

One day, this mirror suddenly disappeared, and it was lost in the house. The gold and silver jewelry on Shen's dressing table were not lost. After a while, Yu Sheng saw an old man selling mirrors at the market. It looked very ancient. , So Yu Sheng bought it and gave it to his wife.

   His wife took a look in the mirror and suddenly exclaimed, "Who are you?"

   I didn't expect the mirror to make a voice, "Who are you?"

Yu Sheng was very surprised. He quickly took a look at the mirror and found a beautiful woman standing inside. His wife couldn't compare with her at all. Yu Sheng asked who she was. The woman in the mirror said that she was Zhu Quanzhong during the Five Dynasties and Ten Kingdoms Period. The beloved concubine later died in the chaos of the army, because she met the immortal master and cast this mirror with her blood, and her soul was attached to the mirror.

   Yu Sheng asked "Will you bring harm?"

  The woman in the mirror said, "Don't dare to do harm, I just want to serve you."

   Yu Sheng was very happy and asked Jing Ji what she could do. She could not only sing, but also dance well, so Yu Sheng erected the mirror and the couple watched Jing Ji sing and dance together.

"It's said that I don't dare to do harm, but this girl has disturbed the whole Shen residence. If it wasn't for my husband, the couple would have lost their lives." Lao Juren told Nick a story while eating and drinking, "Remember. The tyrants and the women who brought disaster to the country and the people listed in the history books are all ghosts.”

  Georgianna wanted to ask him, is Heshen and Zhongtang also ghosts?

There is such a story in "Yuewei Caotang Ji" written by Ji Yun. An old man named Men Shirong came to Wugou Bridge Pan River one day. At that time, the sun was about to set, but it rained heavily and the river swelled sharply. I was worrying about where I could cross the river when I suddenly saw two people riding horses in front of me. They went back and forth several times and found a place with shallow water. Men Shirong followed them to the river, and was about to cross the river when one of them suddenly stopped his horse, waited for Men Shirong to come, and whispered, "Don't follow us, walk more than half a mile to the left, if you can I saw a dead tree on the other side, and I crossed the river from that place. The person I was leading with me was going to do something, so don't follow."

  Men Shirong thought that the other party was a robber and quickly returned, and walked forward according to his guidance, looking back at the two people as he walked. Soon, Men Shirong saw the man who was talking to him beat the horse first, and the man behind him came to the middle of the river, and was suddenly flooded by the flood. The whirlwind disappeared.

   Only then did Men Shirong know that this person was an avenger, and the person behind him should have been his enemy.

   It reminded her of "The Tale of the Three Brothers", although it was a wizarding fairy tale.

  Is it really the **** of death who is chasing the three brothers, or is it a ghost?
