She is a beautiful angel and the embodiment of love. Qin Keqing is a beautiful aristocratic young woman and a very emotional woman. Anyone who loves her can refuse. Because of this, she couldn't resist the temptation and fell into a situation where she could not extricate herself.
Qin Keqing's Character Significance
When Qin Keqing died, in the form of a dream, she predicted for the first time that "the banquet will break up" and "happiness will be sad" in the book, and put forward the plan of "planning the future when she is rich", which showed her keen premonition of Jia's fate.
The description of her in the book is mostly melodious, such as her ambiguous feelings with Jia Baoyu, which are expressed in the form of Baoyu's dream of taking a nap in his bedroom; Her affair with Jia Zhen was exposed through Jia Zhen's abnormal ugliness at the funeral.
As for the cause of her death, experts in A Dream of Red Mansions agreed that Cao Xueqin first wrote about her death because she found her affair with Jia Zhen in Tianxianglou and was ashamed to commit suicide. Therefore, the thirteenth topic of A Dream of Red Mansions is "The House of Heaven is Mourning in Yin", while the main edition of Twelve Hairpins in Jinling is "Painting a Tall Building, and Beauty Hangs itself". Qin Keqing's description of illness and death in this book was abridged and supplemented by Cao Xueqin after listening to his friends' suggestions.
