Jiang Xun elaborated on the thirty-fifth article of the Dream of the Red Chamber, "No Pole Tai Lai, The Cycle Begins Again"

author:Call me Sister Angel

When Qin Keqing was seriously ill and about to die, he gave Wang Xifeng a dream, and Wang Xifeng asked how he could keep his wealth forever. Qin Keqing sneered and said sarcastically, "Auntie is so stupid." No Pole Tai Lai. She said how could you think so, do you think our family can still be an official, she used a sentence in the "I Ching" "No Ji Tai Lai".

Qin Keqing said here that the Jia family has been prosperous and rich for a hundred years, and now it is impossible to recover it if it is going to decline. However, Qin Keqing suggested: "But now we can plan the future decline of the world at the time of prosperity." "When you say that today, when you are rich and rich, you still have the ability, why don't you think in advance where you will go when you fall one day?" She believes that decay is inevitable, so at least when she is prosperous, she will first prepare for the decline, and then it will not be very miserable. After the eighty times of "Dream of the Red Chamber", Cao Xueqin did not write it, so there is a lot of controversy so far. Many versions that have been found now believe that the Jia family was finally incredibly miserable, and that almost all of the richest girls of the Jia family were sent to the military camp to work as prostitutes, rather than the revival situation written by Gao Hu. Cao Xueqin did not feel that the family road could be revived, but wrote the most tragic fate.
