Why was Qin Keqing's death in Lecture Room's Dream of the Red Chamber said to be an unjust death?

The fifth chapter of Dream of the Red Chamber was " Qin Keqing's Death Festival ". The first chapter told the story of Grandmother Jia's concubine daughter, Qin Keqing, in the Rong Mansion. The functions of her room included: As Grandmother Jia's room, Qin Keqing was Grandmother Jia's concubine daughter, so she naturally had to live in Grandmother Jia's room. 2. As Grandmother Jia's bedroom: Grandmother Jia's room was the center of the Rong Mansion and one of the most luxurious rooms in the Jia Mansion. Qin Keqing could feel the rich atmosphere of the Rong Mansion from staying here. Qin Keqing held an important position in the Rong residence. She was Grandmother Jia's personal maid, so she naturally had to live in Grandmother Jia's bedroom. As a part of the Jia residence: Qin Keqing was an important figure in the Jia residence. Her room was also a part of the Jia residence. It was connected to other rooms to facilitate the management of the Jia residence. Qin Keqing's room had an important symbolic meaning in the Dream of the Red Chamber. It represented the wealth and luxury of the Jia family and also expressed the greed and hypocrisy of human nature.

As far as I know,'Dream of the Red Chamber' was not called 'Dream of the Red Chamber' when Cao Xueqin was alive. Instead, it was called 'Story of the Stone.' This name came from the nickname of the character Stone in Cao Xueqin's novel. Cao Xueqin had not died when he wrote this novel, so after his death, this novel was called "Dream of the Red Chamber" by others and gradually spread and accepted.

The scene of Lin Daiyu's death in Dream of the Red Chamber: Lin Daiyu's heart was very heavy when she learned that she was about to die. She knew that she was about to leave this world to search for her soul. In Lin Daiyu's final moments, she was lying on the bed, breathing weakly. Her family and Jia Baoyu gathered around her to pray for her. Lin Daiyu smiled and closed her eyes. Her soul left this world to pursue a new journey. At this moment, the entire room became very quiet. Only Lin Daiyu's breathing and heartbeat echoed in the quiet air.

Lin Daiyu was one of the main characters in Dream of the Red Chamber and Jia Baoyu's cousin. The two of them had a deep relationship. However, the cause of Lin Daiyu's death remained a mystery. According to the plot of the novel, Lin Daiyu's condition worsened after the Lantern Festival and she eventually died in the 19th chapter. However, the novel did not give a clear answer to the cause of her death. Some readers thought that Lin Daiyu's death might have something to do with her family background. The novel mentioned that Lin Daiyu's father and brother were both senior executives of the Jia family, but Lin Daiyu's mother died early, which made her status in the family more awkward. In addition, Lin Daiyu's sensitive personality, kindness, and often being ostracized and suppressed might have been one of the reasons for her deterioration and eventual death. There were also some readers who thought that Lin Daiyu's death might have something to do with her personal experience. The novel mentioned that Lin Daiyu had left her hometown in her childhood before returning to the Jia family. Due to her young age and lack of experience, she may not have been able to adapt well to life in the Jia family, which may have been one of the reasons why her condition worsened and eventually died. The cause of Lin Daiyu's death is a complicated issue in the novel. Different readers may have different opinions. However, no matter what the cause of her death was, Lin Daiyu was an important character in an excellent literary work. Her character image and storyline were fully displayed. This was also one of the reasons why "Dream of the Red Chamber" could become a classic literary work.

Li Qin played the role of Xue Baochai in Li Shaohong's version of Dream of the Red Chamber. Xue Baochai was one of the female protagonists in the book of the Twelve Beauties of Jinling. She was also Jia Baoyu's cousin and wife. She was beautiful, elegant, and concerned about the common people. She was the embodiment of Cao Xueqin's ideals. When Li Qin played Xue Baochai, she showed her understanding and style of the character, and her image also matched the description of Xue Baochai in the original novel. Her acting skills and temperament were recognized by the audience.

There were two main reasons why the unfinished 'Dream of the Red Chamber' after Cao Xueqin's death was handed over to Gao E to continue writing. Gao E was Cao Xueqin's good friend and colleague. Cao Xueqin had worked with Gao E during the early stages of the creation of 'Dream of the Red Chamber'. They had a deep friendship and mutual trust. Therefore, Cao Xueqin might hand over the rights to continue writing 'Dream of the Red Chamber' to Gao E because he trusted Gao E's talent and ability and believed that he could continue writing better works. 2. Gao E has literary talent and creative experience. Gao E was Cao Xueqin's colleague and friend. He had also provided a lot of help and suggestions to Cao Xueqin during the creation of 'Dream of the Red Chamber'. In addition, Gao E had once created some outstanding novels, so he had the experience and ability to continue writing 'Dream of the Red Chamber'. All these factors helped Cao Xueqin hand over the rights to continue writing 'Dream of the Red Chamber' to Gao E. In short, Cao Xueqin's unfinished 'Dream of the Red Chamber' was handed over to Gao E to continue writing mainly because Gao E had literary talent and experience, and Cao Xueqin trusted him.

Qin Keqing's archetype in Dream of the Red Chamber had not been verified in real life because Dream of the Red Chamber was a fictional story. However, from the plot and character shaping of the novel, Qin Keqing was a character with a complex personality and background. Her image was deeply expressed in the novel. In the novel, Qin Keqing was a girl from a noble family, but she gradually degenerated into one of the scum of the Jia family. Her original form might have had similar experiences in real life, such as being born into a noble family but gradually losing her status and dignity for various reasons. The archetype of Qin Keqing in Dream of the Red Chamber had not been verified in real life, but her image was deeply expressed in the novel, which also reflected the complexity of ancient Chinese aristocratic society and the variety of human nature.
