Speaking of Ximen Qing's greed for money, we immediately think of the story of Ximen Qing and Pan Jinlian. Until now, both of them have been nailed to the shame column of history. As long as you don't behave yourself in the relationship between men and women, you will be called Ximen Qing and Pan Jinlian. It is conceivable that these two people are indeed notorious.
However, we have to understand that Pan Jinlian is not the only daughter-in-law in Ximen Qing history, but has married six concubines, including Li, Pan Jinlian, and so on. It is because Ximen Qing has many concubines that he is described as a lecher.
But the five fingers are still long and short, not to mention just a few living people. Ximen Qing spent his whole life fighting for a woman's heart and constantly changing women around him. He is a playboy who lives under a woman's pomegranate skirt, but in his heart of hearts, which woman is his favorite?
To say which woman Ximen Qing likes best, we should carefully analyze which woman Ximen Qing has the deepest feelings for. If we talk about the depth of feelings, we usually look at birth, companionship and death. For example, when a child is born, if the parents are happy, then the feelings for the child are not bad. If a man stays with a woman all his life, his feelings are not bad, but these two are obviously not suitable for Ximen Qing, because he has too many wives.
In fact, in the book Jin Ping Mei, Ximen Qing's inner world has been interpreted. After Li Pinger gave birth to a son for Ximen Qing, Li Pinger fell behind and became thinner. At this time, Ximen Qing showed great distress. When Li Pinger died, Ximen Qing cried in her bedroom. Of all the concubines, Li Pinger is the only one who makes Ximen Qing cry. So, in Ximen Qing's mind,
Bad guys have a good side. Although Ximen Qing is greedy for money, in fact, Ximen Qing has done a good job in treating women in some places, but these can't hide the behavior of Ximen Qing fish and fisherman, and finally it doesn't end well in Water Margin.
