Nowadays, there are three main research forms in the field of the research on the Dream of the Red Chamber: literature research which is concentrating on the background, the author, the edition and resources of this novel;text research which is emphasizing on the text itself;and cultural research which is giving prominence to the acceptance and profoundness of the culture. But these three modes can't syncretise each other. Mr. Lu said in: "since the Dream of the Red Chamber coming out, all the traditional thinking and writing methods had been broken." Nevertheless, almost all of the researchers always locate their studying point of the novelty only on art methods, techniques, thus giving not enough elucidations to the aesthetic proposition such as "Novelty" and "evil two is being 'composed" and not forming a suit of the literature spirit or tastable thought from its own text.This study is based on the Dream of the Red Chamber, deeply deciphering the aesthetic category "novelty", digging up its new artistic values and aesthetic vitality by using modern standard and foresight, in order to get rid of the narrow angle of view and the embarrassment in theory field. Moreover, we can also discover the profound and peculiar existence in its text construction, hoping that it will offer a cultural and aesthetic critical method in studying the classical texts.This text synthesizes several research methods of this field, reviewing this novel in an organic way;clears up the antinomy between the center and the fringe;indeed realizes the intercommunion of both in the text and out of the text .Bring forward the category of "novelty" will break through the orthodox taste trend which left behind the mediaeval times, let individuals escape from the experiential and utilitarian space, at last reach an ambit where we can think or imagine or view the whole age freely and aesthetically. Only by this, we can offer some academic support to the innovation of the contemporary literary theory and the aesthetic construction of the human living.All the aesthetic system of the Dream of the Red Chamber is in conformity to its peculiar aesthetic structure: the abundant and multivocal thesis, the traitorous and profound thoughts, the three-dimensional and complex characters, the infinite and implicit artistic conceptions. Each of it gives its characteristic to its peculiar aesthetic structure in turn. From above all, we can see that the whole novel is running through the two aesthetic thoughts which are interplaying and unifying each other. These two categories' movement occupies the center of this novel's aesthetic construction. So to discuss the form, the peculiarity and the value of the theory, to concentrate on how the interplay bring the Dream of the Red Chamber to the novel zenith, and to interpret the dynamic inner aesthetic structure, are our whole task.
