Sun Fuyuan said in a brief account of Lu Xun's love for Kong Yiji: "The main intention of the author of Kong Yiji is to describe cool thin, who is suffering in the general society." So when we read Kong Yiji, we may not always put it in the specific social environment of China to explain its significance. In the past, most people explained it from the perspective of the poison of the imperial examination system to the Chinese people. Kong Yiji represented a typical old intellectual and became a victim of feudal society. But as Lu Xun said, "whoever enters the novel as a whole, if the author is clever and the work lasts forever, what the reader sees is the people in the book, which has nothing to do with the people who once existed." Therefore, he insisted that to understand A Dream of Red Mansions, we should not pursue Cao, but learn from him the significance of Jia Baoyu or his novels. Because "life is limited, but art is more eternal." Similarly, we can read Kong Yiji beyond the specific social background of China when writing, which is also of universal significance.

When we don't confine this novel to China's feudal society, it is "a sober reflection describing the suffering people in general society". This kind of bitter people, all over the world. This cool thin society, no matter ancient or modern, will not disappear today or tomorrow. On the surface, Lu Xun wrote about the society and China people in China in the late Qing Dynasty. In fact, he is also showing the eternal tragedy of human beings and their society. On the surface, Kong Yiji was poisoned by the imperial examination system. "Everything is inferior, only reading is high", but he is also a universal symbol of the conflict between individuals and society. In any country, any society, how many people, like Kong Yiji, are not accepted by the society and laughed at, bullied and insulted by the masses, just for different reasons. Kong Yiji represents the conflict between ideal or fantasy and real society, and his tragedy lies in his confusion between fantasy and fact. In the imperial examination era, stealing books was not a shameful or even a criminal act. After he got into this old habit, society changed. So Xianheng Hotel, a small society, will always be a trap to bury Kong Yiji and kill him.

Today, from the east to the west, how many people live according to their own thoughts, ideals, fantasies or values, but he doesn't understand or wake up. He lives in a dream, and the society he lives in simply can't accommodate such people. When we read Kong Yiji outside the framework of the imperial examination, we can feel the richness and universal significance of the novel. Rosso, a stranger in Kong Yiji and Camus' Sharger, and a salesman in Miller's Death of a Salesman are also representatives of all mankind.
