Burying Flowers can be said to be the pinnacle of poetry in A Dream of Red Mansions. A close reading of A Dream of Red Mansions reveals that although it involves a large number of poems, the quality is mixed, mainly because it fits the characters. Because these poems are written by characters in the book, their level is different, so the quality of poems is different.
But among the characters in A Dream of Red Mansions, Lin Daiyu and Xue Baochai are the most accomplished poets, and even Lin Daiyu is higher than Xue Baochai, so Lin Daiyu's poems in the book can be said to be the highest level. And "Burying Flowers" is what Lin Daiyu felt, expressing her inner suffering and the sinister environment. Moreover, this poem is an emotional turning point in the whole book, and the surging behind those seemingly calm began to emerge, and the Jia family began to decline.
Therefore, Lin Daiyu represents the highest level of poetry in A Dream of Red Mansions, and Yin of Flowers is the best work representing Lin Daiyu, so it is not an exaggeration that Yin of Flowers is regarded as the peak of poetry in A Dream of Red Mansions.
A Dream of Red Mansions can be said to be a group portrait work. Each character has his own experience and personality, and has different knowledge and talents. Therefore, for the author, all poetry works should have different feelings and levels, which is very difficult. Especially in several scenes of the poetry club, usually under the same topic, there are even poems, and there are more than a dozen people who appear, such as Bao Daichai, Sanchun, Li Wan and Xiangyun. Everyone should make corresponding poems according to the characteristics of the characters, so that the characters can stand.
Therefore, every work is a classic, which is difficult to achieve, and it is also contrary to the characters. Therefore, it is very normal for Cao Xueqin to spend the most time on the works of Dai Chai. It also proves that their works are the best among all the poems in A Dream of Red Mansions. Lin Daiyu's works are always very infectious because she comes from a scholarly family, her father was born after exploring flowers, and she read a lot of poetry books, coupled with the reality of being dependent on others and her sensitive emotions.
