The statement of A Dream of Red Mansions was written by Hong Sheng,the statement of Twelve Beauties of Jiaoyuan,and the statement of Xixi are the theoretical bases of "Tu More Redology". "Tu More Redology" is fundamentally deny the copyright of the Cao Xueqin's A Dream of Red Mansions,and distorted the historical facts.Methods of Tu More claimed to be "in the epistemological Materialism",but in his reasoning was used this words such as "suspected","likely ",these can not be treated as evidences.His so-called "research" not follow the principle of historical materialism, and departure from the basic principles of academic research and methods.
