摘要
芹溪其人见于《红楼梦》甲戌本第十三回中的一则畸笏叟批语。这个芹溪后来被认为与曹雪芹是同一人,是因为畸笏叟批语中出现的芹溪和曹霑的雪芹、芹圃都带有"芹"字,而且这个芹溪又奉畸笏叟之命删改"秦可卿淫丧天香楼"。但这只是依照常理的推论,并没有任何直接证据表明芹溪是曹雪芹。依据畸笏叟的这则批语,结合脂批相关批语和曹雪芹的生平,可推知:畸笏叟这则批语中的芹溪与曹雪芹并非同一人。
Qinxi appeared in Jihusou's remarks in Chapter 13 of A Dream of Red Mansions( Jiaxu Edition).Qinxi was regarded as CAO Xueqin later,because Qinxi,Xueqin and Qinpu had the same word "Qin"in Jihusou's remarks. Meanwhile,Qinxi revised QIN Keqing's dying under Jihusou's orders. The conclusion of "Qinxi is CAO Xueqin"was drawn by guessing without solid evidence. Based on Jihusou's remarks,combined with Zhiyanzhai's remarks and CAO Xueqin's living,the essay put forward that Qinxi and CAO Xueqin are not the same person.
