Zhang Ye’s expression looked casual. “It’s not that I’m not speaking, but it’s because it’s too chaotic. There’s too much discussion, so even if I speak, no one would be able to hear me.”
With that, the audience immediately turned silent!
No one discussed further. They were all listening to Zhang Ye’s voice.
Only then did Zhang Ye smile while holding his microphone. “Regarding the problem with Jia Baoyu’s poem, it is a persistent problem in Redology. The reason why ‘Dream of the Red Chamber’ is not easily talked about is because of this. Typically, when ‘Dream of the Red Chamber’ is mentioned, 100% of people would skip this when they reach this point. They would pretend to miss this segment. No one dares to talk about this part. This taboo episode has stumped countless Redologists, but here, in this public lecture, I can tell everyone…” With a pause, he said, “I can talk about this part.”
Everyone was stunned!
“You can talk about it?”
“Teacher Zhang you really can?”
“Impossible, there’s no way to explain it!”
The Peking University students all had looks of disbelief.
Only Senior Zhou and Senior Song were extremely interested. They were invigorated. He could really explain it? If he could really explain it, then the entire Redology world would be overturned!
To Teacher Yang, it was not a matter of believing. He didn’t even bother listening!
No one present believed Zhang Ye had the ability!
Zhang Ye stood there, as calm as ever. He maintained his smiling face and said, “And even if no one asked, I was just about to talk about it. Why? This is because this episode of Jia Baoyu’s praising of the Winsome Colonel intertwines with the second charge against Jia Zheng that I did not finish talking about. Was hoarding the Zhen family’s illegal fortunes a big enough crime? No, not at all! The development of this episode is Jia Zheng’s biggest crime! This is the thing that I revealed through my words…Jia Zheng’s heinous crime!”
