Obeying two orders, all three people froze, and crying to Jinling was even more sad.

In the fifth episode of A Dream of Red Mansions, Jia Baoyu saw an allusion to Wang Xifeng's "there is a female phoenix on the iceberg" when he was reading the "Shoushu" of twelve women in Jinling in his dream. That sentence said:

"Every bird from the last days knows to love this life. It is even sadder to cry in Jinling. "

Jia Heben has a small note under the sentence "One obeys two orders and three people": "The method of dividing words".

But for a long time, no one can give a satisfactory answer about how to understand and divide the seven words of Wang Xifeng's comments and endings. Now all kinds of speculations made by researchers of A Dream of Red Mansions at all times and at home and abroad are listed as follows:

(1) As early as 1795 (sixty years after Qianlong), Zhou Chun first tried to explain this assertion in Reading a Dream of Red Mansions. He said: "The sentence of" One obeys two orders, three people are wooden "in the case poem is too cold to cover" two orders ","one obeys the bright moon "and" three "into one sentence."

(2) 1850 (thirty years of Daoguang), Zhang Xinzhi, an idle man in Taiping, made a bet on this sentence: "Wang Xifeng was the last one. Two singles and three people', cold. " But he did not explain the word "cold".

(3) 19 13 years, when Wang and Shen Ping-an wrote A Dream of Red Mansions, they used it to attach their arguments, thinking that A Dream of Red Mansions alluded to the story of Shunzhi and Dong E Fei, and said that "the last days" were "the last years of the Ming Dynasty" and "the cold days", saying that the bitter and cold homes in the north came.

(4) 1929, Yi Shi Daily published The Butterfly Change of Twelve Women in Jinling, in which the word "Yicong" in the third sentence is a word "Cong", "Erling" is a word "cold" and "Sanrenmu" is a word "Lai". But how to explain the word "from cold"? There is no answer to turning into a butterfly, just saying, "This riddle is really hard to guess!" " !

(5) 1947, Xu read two essays on a dream of red mansions in the third issue of the first volume of Human World, and put forward new views. He said: "In my opinion,' obedience' means obedience of three obedience and four virtues, and' one obedience' refers to the time when Xifeng got married for the first time in the boudoir. The' order' is an order to give orders, and the' second order' refers to the heyday when Wang Xifeng was in charge of housework and manipulated everything. " "Full of wood" means giving up, and "Three wood" means that Feng was sent home because of failure. "

(6) 1954, Zhao Changyou wrote a letter to Wu Enyu, giving a new explanation to this sentence: "Foolish means that obedience is a mouth, and adding a word to the mouth is a word. The word' three-person wood' is a word with a tattoo in the mouth and a word of imprisonment. Suspecting that Xifeng will eventually be jailed or convicted is exactly what it means to cry until Jinling is even sadder. " Wu Enyu believes that "although this solution is similar to things, it is far from literal." So he accepted another opinion in Eight Kinds of Cao Xueqin. He said: "Or the explanation is: (to the effect) At first, Xifeng listened to Jia Lian, and then she could give orders to Jia Lian. Finally, she couldn't help taking a rest, and said something like' It's even sadder to cry until Jinling'. This is absolutely true. "

(7) 1960, Yan Ming published the article "The End of Xifeng-'One Obedience, Two Orders, Three People'" with the subtitle: "An Important Mystery after a Dream of Red Mansions". He believes that the word "cong" should be divided into five people and a word "no". Five people can say this: everyone, the word "no" plus the word "one" becomes the word "up" or "down", and the word "second order" is "cold". To put it simply, it is "many people are cold and their husbands are divorced", that is to say, being betrayed and abandoned by their husbands is Feng's ending.

(8) At the same time, Zhou Cezong of the University of Wisconsin believes that it is inappropriate to guess "a follower" as "everyone up and down". He guessed the word "cong" as "the man on the man", that is, "the man on the man", so this sentence became "the man on the man is cool, and the husband rests"

(9) 196 1 wu shichang's English version of A Dream of Red Mansions overthrew the above speculation. He thinks that "San Duan" refers to the word "Duan" that Feng said in the sixty-eighth time when Jia Lian stole Second Sister You and went to Ningfu to make a scene. As for the "second order", he thinks that Xifeng was later named a concubine, which is the first order; Being ordered to really give up is the second order. The so-called "second order" refers to this "second order".

(10) 196 1 year1month, the eleventh issue of Overseas Forum, Volume II, published Zhou Cezong's article "A Tree of Three People with One Order and Two Orders on Xifeng" and put forward a "new answer". He thinks that these seven words "refer to Feng's murder of Second Sister You", and the answer lies in Chapter 68 "Bitter your mother earns the Grand View Garden, sour Feng makes Ningguo Mansion" and Chapter 69 "Make the small box kill with a sword, and Shen Dabian swallow gold and die". He quoted the word "one from", which is at the beginning of chapter 68. Second Sister You was deceived and said, "My family is young. When I came here, my mother and my sister discussed everything. " "Cao Xueqin" and "Cao Xueqin" used these two words as indicators in the sixty-eighth session of Second Sister You, for fear that people would not find clues. "Second Order" is two orders given by Xifeng after Second Sister You entered the park: one is that Wang ordered Wang Er to secretly instigate Zhang Hua to sue Jia Lian in Douchayuan, and the other is that Wang ordered Wang to use money to dredge Zhang Hua's false accusation in Douchayuan. "Three-person-wood" refers to the three sentences "Divorce me", "Divorce me" and "Don't stop" mentioned by Xifeng in her sixty-eighth and sixty-ninth replies. Therefore, he thinks that "one order, two orders, three trees" does include all the replies of the sixty-eighth and sixty-ninth, pointing out the whole story of Xifeng's killing of Second Sister You ".

(1 1) Recently, Yang Guanghan of Yunnan University published a new interpretation of "One Obedience, Two Orders and Three Trees" in the 5th issue of Northern Essays 1980. In his view, "one obedience" means "spontaneous", "two orders" means "cold" and "three-person tree" means "people come". But who is the "cold man"? He thought it was Liu Xianglian, a "cold husband" with a "cold face and a cold heart", that is, Liu Xianglian was called a "future beam", that is, a "chivalrous man and a rebel warrior". So he explored the content of the original "mob" rebellion in dozens of lost manuscripts after A Dream of Red Mansions. "The peasants rebelled and attacked the imperial court", "In this way, Jia Fu and his political representatives, like Yang Yuhuan and his family in the Tang Dynasty, became the target of public criticism. The emperor had to hurry to take Jia's death and not Jia's house, but he caught Jia She and Feng, and he was furious and' thanked the world'. " To put it simply, the original idea of A Dream of Red Mansions was not only to write about the demise of four big families, but also to write about the demise of a dynasty. "
