The beautiful names in the four major classics have far-reaching meanings
Similarly, the names of the people in the four major classics have different meanings due to different social environments, histories, and political and cultural backgrounds. People's names are also endowed with rich connotations and far-reaching meanings.
"A Dream of Red Mansions": Ya
There are many characters in "A Dream of Red Mansions". Cao Xueqin pays great attention to the personality of the characters when naming them, using strange words and a wide range of characters. Some use the names of birds, some use the names of flowers, and some use the names of jewelry and jade, which are colorful, rich and elegant. The names or characters of many characters, or the names of multiple people combined, have profound meanings. Some hint at the fate of the characters, some are some kind of metaphors for the development of the plot, some are named after their people, some are wonderful satires on the characters' behavior, etc.
Xing Xiuyan:
Frivolous things.
Song Dynasty Lu You's "Wanjuan Tower": "The mist is misty and the clouds are thick, and the trees are thin in Zhuzhu. They reflect each other, and they are in various forms at dawn and dusk."
Qin Keqing:
Extraordinary! Affectionate, affectionate, and can have sex with anyone close to him. But upon closer inspection, things may not be that simple. It seems that there are other hidden things inside.
Lin Daiyu:
The word "Lin" is derived from Lin Daiyu, a natural tree with the fragrance of flowers and plants; "Dai" is a black stone used for thrush, Cao Xueqin's There is a stream next to the former residence in the western suburbs of Beijing, and there are such black stones in the water. A huge smooth rock was also found at the upper reaches of the stream. Perhaps Cao Xueqin got the inspiration for writing "The Story of the Stone" from here; " "Jade" is the spirit of stone. In traditional Chinese culture, jade represents purity, essence and beauty.
Hua Xiren:
This name is really quite ecstatic! ! Xiren's surname is Hua, and there is an allusion in his name that "the flower energy strikes people and makes the day warm". Jia Zheng shook his head after hearing this, scolding Baoyu for being expert in such "exquisite mischief". And Qingwen, Sheyue, Qiuwen, Bihen, etc., all reveal the literary and youthful temperament of a wealthy and idle person. When you hear it, you can tell that there is a master behind them who loves to sing the wind and play with the moon. The flowers are beautiful in appearance and have a charming fragrance, but they give you a gentle knife in the back. It also means that Xiren is the "person" of the "player" (Jiang Yuhan)
Qingwen:
There is an explanation in the book, the sun is shining with clouds, what a shame it is " "The colorful clouds are easy to disperse", also known as "love text", which shows Qingwen's position in Cao Xueqin's heart.
She Yue:
She Yue is a deer treasure, and the moon is a night flower. Although She Yue’s character is very plain and ordinary, Cao Xueqin still likes her very much. Many red scholars believe that She Yue’s The prototype still followed Cao Xueqin for a long time after the Cao family fell.
Zhai said that "Xianxue" came out in the last forty chapters and visited Jia Baoyu in prison. It really lives up to its name.
Xue Baoqin:
It has a bright atmosphere. If it were called Suqin, it would be too bland, while Baoqin would be more valuable. Qin is an elegant thing, and compared with Chai, a female jewelry, it seems detached. This is a relatively safe and blessed name.
Mingyan:
Refers to the mist on the tea. There is a poem from the ancients that says, "The tea smoke is green in the white clouds." Baoyu once wrote, "The leisure smoke of Baoding tea is still green." It can be seen that both the author and Baoyu are in love with the beauty of tea mist, but this is an extremely static elegance. , It really can’t be placed on the lively Mingyan.
Rhododendron:
"Purple" means the ultimate red color. Rhododendron is considered to be the most considerate bird. There is a saying that "cuckoo cries blood". Rhododendron is the color of red. Good friends in jade boudoir.
Holding the qin, playing chess, serving calligraphy, and painting:
It embodies the four arts of "playing chess, calligraphy and painting", and also metaphors the characteristics, hobbies and artistic accomplishments of their owners. As expected of Cao Xueqin, he is quite accomplished.
The four sisters Yuanchun, Yingchun, Tanchun and Xichun:
Homophoned with "Yuan Ying sigh", sighing at their short youth. Spring is already very short, not to mention that it is divided into four stages, each stage being shorter.
Some people think it is "cause analysis", which analyzes the reasons for the decline and demise of feudal society.
"The Romance of the Three Kingdoms": Xiong
Liu Bei:
Laozi said: Therefore, when Tao is born, virtue is the animal; when it grows, it is nurtured; when it is mature, it is mature; The pavilion poisons it; nourishing it covers it. Born without being, doing without relying on, growing without killing. It is called Xuande.
A simple translation of this sentence: Although Tao transforms into life all things, and virtue nourishes all things, and although it nurtures, stabilizes, and nourishes all things, they are transformed into beings but not owned by themselves, and they are promoted without being responsible. Relying on one's own abilities, cultivating one's abilities without thinking oneself is the master, such a subtle and far-reaching power is Xuande.
Xuande, the grand virtue, is all-encompassing, subtle and profound, echoing "preparation".
Liu Bei has been fulfilling his promise throughout his life. The second brother was ambushed and killed by Soochow. He did not hesitate to make a big mistake because of a small thing. He ignored the national affairs and wanted to take revenge and fulfill his friendship. How many people in history? Not long after his third brother was killed, he was even more grief-stricken and wanted revenge. Finally, his soul returned to Baidi City, and he chased the two brothers waiting on the road to Huangquan with a smile.
The emperor’s dominance lasted for decades, but his bones were eventually buried in the soil. Maybe Liu Bei has already seen through all this, so he might as well follow his brothers and leave, leaving a righteous character in the world, which will become a legend through the ages and a hero for all generations.
Zhuge Liang:
Zhuge Liang, also known as Kong Ming - afraid of understanding, but always understanding, never failing to understand.
His achievements are divided into three parts of the country, and he is known as the Eight Formations. The stone in the river will not turn around, and he will swallow Wu with regret.
It has to be said that the echo between the name and the character is a kind of ingenious and unintentional carving: it is as bright as a candle, its light shines through the hole, lighting up half of the sky in Western Shu. Just like our small hole imaging today, how much energy is behind the hole is elusive, deep and bottomless. To govern the world with light, one hole of light is enough. The name is true to the person.
The "Huangdi Neijing" says: A true person grasps the heaven and earth and grasps yin and yang; a perfect person is pure and virtuous and harmonizes yin and yang. Kong Ming is just such a great person who came into being at the right moment. He just came to complete his mission. So he named himself Wolong. The dragon does not need to fly to control the sky, it is just half-lying in the clouds and sending rain. He has no intention of becoming a dragon, but he has the ability to assist the dragon. It comes as it comes and goes as it comes. The dragon shape is always stretched.
Guan Yu:
Guan Guanguan Erye, the character of Yi Bo Yuntian in "The Romance of the Three Kingdoms". If you don't understand the meaning of "Yi Bo Yuntian", you can know it by reading Guan Yu's life. Yes, this word seems to have been coined for Guan Yu.
Guan Yu, also known as Yun Chang. "Zhuangzi·Xiaoyaoyou" said: There is a bird, its name is Peng, its back is like Mount Tai, and its wings are like clouds hanging from the sky. It flies up ninety thousand miles on its horns, cuts off the clouds, carries the blue sky, and then turns to the south. This can be said to be the most appropriate interpretation of "Yun Chang".
Feather refers to bird wings, which is extended to mean flying. Yun Tian is the great roc that spreads its wings and soars in the sky. It has a broad mind and a far-reaching ambition, which is completely different from that of a sparrow. Therefore, Guan Yu had a proud life and a pair of red phoenix eyes. It was difficult for the world to appreciate him, and few people really thought highly of him.
Lü Bu:
Lü Bu, whose name is Fengxian, means the cloth is for the people and the people are for the few.
Zhou Yu:
The courtesy name is Gongjin, which means public and selfless; both Yu and Jin are beautiful jade. With his majestic appearance and hair, feather fan and turban, while talking and laughing, the strong (wall) and prisoner (oar) were reduced to ashes. Instead of being "like drinking fine wine and getting drunk unconsciously", it is not "narrow-minded and intolerant" as the novel says! Sadly, he died at the age of thirty-six!
Ma Chao:
His name is Mengqi, and his name is worthy of his nature. Horses are inherently good at running, so adding the word "Chao" would not be unpleasant. , and the word "Meng Qi" is added, "Meng" refers to "meng", Meng Qi means fierce, and the speed is even more unimaginable.
Ma Chao is a man who has more than enough courage but lacks wit. The horse is stronger than the horse and cannot control himself, which ultimately leads to his sudden and sudden fate. What a pity!
Yan Liang and Wen Chou:
One good and one ugly is truly a match made in heaven. It can also be regarded as the best combination. Yan is the exterior and Wen is the inside, matching the good and the ugly. , the appearance and the inside are the same, they are exactly a pair of synonyms, Yan Liang, which means beautiful and fine on the outside, and Wen Chou, which means dirty and ugly on the inside. Yan Liang, Wen Chou combined means that the appearance is good and the inside is ugly, and they are born as foil materials.
His two greatest contributions are to create a good reputation for Guan Yu. It can be said that one good person and one ugly person create a good name. Flowers need green leaves to set them off. Yan Liang Wen Chou has the worst and most unfair name and fate in "The Romance of the Three Kingdoms".
Zhang Fei:
Zhang Yide, fly high.
Zhang Fei, also known as Yide, with a majestic voice like thunder, retreated millions of Cao family soldiers alone. Those who fly are those who rise to great heights and act vigorously and resolutely; those who are virtuous are those who use virtue as their wings. It is a pity that his virtue is as hot-tempered, his virtue is lacking, and he is addicted to alcohol. When he is drunk, he often whips athletes and makes them wait for him. He was killed by his boss at the age of 55!
Zhao Yun:
Zhao Zilong, Zilong Tengyun.
In "The Romance of the Three Kingdoms", there is a victorious general, a native of Changshan Zhending, whose surname is Zhao Mingyun and whose courtesy name is Zilong.
The Book of Changes says: "The clouds follow the dragon, and the wind follows the tiger." The dragon gets the clouds and rains, and the tiger gets the wind and shows its power. Zhao Yun Zhao Zilong, that is, the name matches the character.
Zhao Yun's nickname is Zilong, and he hopes to become a flying dragon with the ability to overwhelm rivers and seas, which also implies that he will be a general who attacks cities and forts, rather than a helmsman who strategizes.
"One Lu, two Zhao, three Dianwei, four passes, five horses and six Zhang Fei", Zhao Yun's second position is definitely not in vain. Changbanpo's seven advances and seven exits in one battle were enough to establish his status in the world. In countless subsequent battles, "Changshan Zhao Zilong" was like a bolt of lightning, making people frightened. This is the only tall, rich and handsome man in the world!
Lu Xun:
Zi Boyan. Coming up with a clever plan, Lu Zi Mingyi crossed the river, and Guan Yunchang was defeated and fled Maicheng: he paid homage to the general and burned the entire camp for seven hundred miles, and Liu Bei entrusted Gubai Emperor City. A scholar, gentle and elegant, but while talking and laughing, he got rid of Liu, Guan, and Zhang, who even Lu Bu couldn't resist. Who dared to say "Bai Wuyi is a scholar"!
Humility, humility.
"Journey to the West": Wu
Sun Wukong:
Sun Wukong can be regarded as the protagonist in "Journey to the West", and the name Sun Wukong also reflects the author Wu Chengen
The code of self-cultivation pursued by Sun is of course the homophone of "狲狲".

As for "empty", it is a free translation of Sanskrit. , transliterated as "Shunruo", refers to the illusion and unreality of things, or refers to the emptiness, clarity and purity of the rational body. The realization of "empty" means to get rid of all things, to be free from attachment, and to reach the state of "selflessness", which is the so-called "no self". "Being free of body and mind is the way of Buddhism."
Zhu Bajie:
Zhu Bajie is a key character in "Journey to the West". He is greedy for eating, drinking, money, and sleeping. There is no one who is not greedy for women. His name implies that you should keep the precepts, but everyone in the world does not keep the precepts. The first words the Buddha once said when he was about to die was "take the precepts as your teacher." , but Zhu Bajie is breaking the rules wantonly. Let him do it quickly.
Sha Seng:
Sha Seng, I feel so naive. He talks a lot but doesn't speak much. He does what the master arranges and gives people the appearance of an honest person. He symbolizes ignorance and ignorance. Moreover, he makes a living by killing and eating meat in Liusha River, and he only eats passers-by, so he is called He wants to be pure in body and mind.
"Water Margin": Xia
Lin Chong:
Leopard-headed Lin Chong, the hero among the Thirty-Six Tiangang Stars. Xing, who once served as the gun and stick instructor of the 800,000-strong Forbidden Army, is a typical representative of the Communist Party.

p>
Chong is a spirit, a spirit of "never regret even if you die nine times"
Gongsun Sheng:
Entering the clouds, Gongsun wins
Gongsun Sheng, one of the Liangshan heroes in "Water Margin", had the compound surname Gongsun, a single famous place, and the Taoist name "Mr. Yiqing". He was born with a pair of almond eyes, a beard, eight feet in length, and a dignified appearance. He was from Jizhou. He was fond of spears and sticks in his hometown since he was a child, and learned various martial arts. Everyone called him Gongsun Shengdalang. Later, he learned Taoism from Zhenren Luo, and he was good at calling the wind and rain, riding the mist and clouds, and traveled in the rivers and lakes. They all call him "the dragon that enters the clouds".
Lu Zhishen:
Hua Monk, Luda became a monk and had various tattoos on his body, so he was named Hua Monk. He was not a real monk. He broke the precepts, drank a lot and was addicted to killing. Fight with fists to conquer Guanxi, cause havoc in Mount Wutai, and fight in the wild boar forest. He hates evil as much as he hates it, he is chivalrous and courageous, he has a fiery temper, sometimes he is rough and yet he is fine, he is open-minded and sensible.
Wu Yong:
He outsmarted the birth date and threaded the needle in the entire Water Margin. His name is also quite nice.
"Liang Shanbo's military advisor - Wu (Wu) Yong." Actually? Anyone who has watched "Water Margin" knows that Wu Yong is a character who "puts a pole on his forehead - carries the head". He is indispensable for strategizing and winning. He is indispensable and cannot be done without him. Not "useless", but extremely useful.
When Shi Naian was a private school teacher, he was close friends with a private school teacher named Lou Changyou. Lou Changyou is not only a knowledgeable private school teacher, but also an expert in "geography". He held a paper fan and compared himself with Zhuge. When it comes to talking, the mountains are high and the rivers are far away, and the words are clear and clear. After hearing this, the common people often shook their heads and said with a smile: "It's useless, sir." Later, Lou Changyou was beheaded due to Feng Shui.
When writing "Water Margin", Shi Naian thought to himself: With Lou Chang's knowledge, if he doesn't go astray, he can do a lot of work. So, he went in the opposite direction and wrote about Liang Shanbo's military advisor and private school teacher, named Wu Yong. But Wu Yong helped Liang Shanbo do something shocking and shocking.
Ruan Xiaoqi:
It is a bit far-fetched for Xiaoqi to be ranked in the top ten, but the character portrayed in the book is outstanding and vivid, and he is a happy person.
Hua Rong:
He is handsome, and his archery skills are superb. He is a genuine tall, rich and handsome man, but it is a pity that no one is as good as Ximen Daguanren.
Lu Junyi:
"Lu" means a person with a strong temper, hot temper, handsome appearance, wide interpersonal relationships, loyalty, loyalty and wealth, known as "Jade Qilin", meaning Jin Ke Song. Mu, so in the end the court was still afraid that he would rebel, so he poisoned the imperial meal with mercury and he was poisoned to death. Mercury is mercury and it is also a heavy metal. In gold theory, righteousness is like two knives, so this person finally responded to the idiom of "sacrifice one's life for righteousness".
Li Shishi:
Li Shishi was a famous actor in the late Northern Song Dynasty who was both beautiful and talented.
Master Li was the daughter of Wang Yin, who originally ran a dyeing house in Bianjing City. She was sent to a Buddhist temple when she was three years old.
