Osmanthus poetry and its myths and legends

1. The name of the myth and legend of osmanthus fragrans is August in the lunar calendar, and it was called Gui Yue in ancient times, which is a better month to enjoy osmanthus fragrans.

Osmanthus fragrans and the bright moon have a long history, so that "Gui Soul", "Gui Wheel", "Gui Yue" and "Gui Cave" all represent the moon. In the fairy tales of "the Goddess Chang'e flying to the moon" and "Wu Gang cutting laurel", osmanthus fragrans became a sacred tree growing on the moon. It is said that there is a palace on the moon called Guanghan Palace, where the lonely Chang 'e lives. There are osmanthus trees in the palace, which are 500 feet high. The so-called "sweet-scented osmanthus in the moon has been fragrant since ancient times" refers to this osmanthus tree.

If you grow fast, the moon palace will not fit. The Jade Emperor ordered WU GANG, the man who made a mistake in cultivating immortals, to cut down trees every day. However, with the cutting down, the wounds caused by cutting down trees will soon heal, which means the moon's waxing and waning, which means the moon's regeneration and immortality. Therefore, in this legend, the moon and osmanthus tree are two in one, and osmanthus tree can represent immortality like the moon, which is quite amazing and makes the world yearn for it.

So, I wrote a romantic poem "Ask WU GANG what he has, and WU GANG holds out osmanthus wine", and my great feelings are also melted in this beautiful and moving story.

Extended data:

According to written records, osmanthus trees in China have been cultivated for more than 2,500 years. In the Spring and Autumn Period and the Warring States Period, it was mentioned in Mountain Scenery in the South of Mountains and Seas that the swaying mountains were covered with laurel trees. Shan Hai Jing Xi Shan Jing mentioned that there are many osmanthus trees in Gaotu Mountain. Qu Yuan's "Nine Songs" includes "Helping Beidou to drink osmanthus pulp and faithfulness as a laurel flag". "Lu's Spring and Autumn Annals" praised: "The beauty of things is the glory of showing off".

Yue Jue Shu, compiled by Yuan Kang and others in the Eastern Han Dynasty, contains Ji Ni's words: "Give birth to laurel, and history will give birth to children." It is obvious that Guangxi has been loved by people since ancient times. From the Han Dynasty to the Wei, Jin, Southern and Northern Dynasties, Osmanthus fragrans became a valuable flower and tribute, and became a symbol of beautiful things. "Miscellanies of Xijing" records that when Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty first built Shanglin Garden, his ministers presented more than 2,000 kinds of flowers, including ten osmanthus trees.

In BC11/year, Emperor Wu invaded South Vietnam, and then built a rich palace in Shanglinyuan, where exotic flowers and trees were planted widely, including 100 osmanthus plants. Most of the plants planted at that time, such as bananas, osmanthus, henna, longan, litchi, olives, citrus and so on. , dead, osmanthus is lucky to survive. Sima Xiangru also mentioned Osmanthus fragrans in Shang Lin Fu. At that time, the introduction of osmanthus into the palace was successful and had a certain scale.

It is recorded in the Southern Vegetation of the Jin Dynasty: "When Guangxi leaves Hepu, it will be born on the top of the mountain, evergreen in winter and summer, with its own forest and no miscellaneous trees." Nanjing is the ancient capital of China. During the reign of Emperor Wu of the Qi Dynasty (483-493 AD), Hunan Xiangzhou sent osmanthus trees to plant in Fanglin Garden.

According to "Southern Fireworks", (583-589 AD) a "Gui Gong" was built in the courtyard for the beloved princess Zhang Lihua, and a osmanthus was planted under the tree, which made Zhang Fei domesticate a white rabbit, called the Moon Palace.

It is conceivable that the legend that the moon and Chang 'e, osmanthus trees and jade rabbits were regarded as the Moon Palace was quite popular at that time, indicating that China used osmanthus trees for garden cultivation as early as 2,000 years ago.

At present, there is also a Chinese osmanthus in the holy water in the southeast of Hanzhong City, Shaanxi Province. According to legend, it was planted by Xiao He of Emperor Gaozu Liu. Its trunk diameter is 232 cm, its crown area is more than 400 square meters, and its branches and leaves are lush and magnificent.

3. What are the legends of osmanthus in history or among the people? (1) Legend has it that in ancient times, there were two British mountains? There lived a widow who sold mountain wine? She is generous and kind? Brewed wine Sweet and mellow? People respect her? Call her the wine fairy.

A winter? Is it cold in the morning? Miss fairy wine just opened the door? Suddenly I saw a thin man lying outside the door, naked? Looks like a beggar.

Miss Fairy Wine still has breath when touching that man? Take him home? Hot soup first? Half a glass of wine again? The man woke up slowly? Say excitedly? "Thank you for saving his life. I'm a paralytic? Don't freeze to death when you go out Starving to death, will you be kind? Take me in for a few more days. "

Miss fairy wine embarrassed? As the saying goes? "There are many things at the widow's door"? Such a man lives at home? People will gossip. But think again? Can't watch him freeze to death alive? Starving to death? Finally agreed? Let him stay for a while.

As expected? Gossip about miss fairy wine spreads quickly? People are alienated from her? Fewer and fewer people come to the hotel to buy wine. But the fairy endured the pain? Take care of that person wholeheartedly.

What happened afterwards? I'm not here to buy wine? She really can't keep it up? The man left without saying goodbye and disappeared. Is Mrs. Fairy Wine uneasy? Looking everywhere? Meet an old man with white hair on the hillside? Carrying a load of dry wood? Walk hard.

Miss fairy wine wants to help? The old man suddenly fell down? Dry wood scattered all over the floor? The old man closed his eyes? Lips trembling? Shout weakly? "Water, water, …" Where is the water on the barren hills? Miss Xianjiu bit her middle finger? Suddenly? Bloody She put her finger on the old man's mouth? The old man suddenly disappeared. A breeze? A yellow cloth bag flying in the sky? The bag is full of small yellow paper bags? Another yellow note? It says. The Moon Palace gave it to Guizi? Reward good people.

Gao Fu ghost pen? Life is full of trees and flowers. Picking flowers to brew osmanthus wine? Send mom and dad first.

WU GANG helps the good? Disaster is unpredictable. Fairy wine lady just understand this? So this paralyzed man and the old man carrying firewood? WU GANG changed everything.

Once this gets around? From far and near to Suo Guizi. Cinnamon seeds of good people? Planting osmanthus trees soon? Open osmanthus? Sweet in the yard? Infinite glory.

Someone with ulterior motives? Cinnamon just doesn't take root and sprout? Embarrass him? Turn over a new leaf and be a good person. Everyone is grateful to miss fairy wine? Is it her kindness? Touched the WU GANG Daxian who manages the osmanthus trees in the Moon Palace? Pass cinnamon wine to the world? Since then, osmanthus and osmanthus wine have appeared in the world.

Legend has it that a long time ago? There was a plague in Xianning? Almost a third of people died? People have used various remedies to see if it doesn't work? Hanging down the hill? Have a brave, honest and filial young man? WU GANG? Can't fucking sleep? The young man goes up the mountain every day to collect medicine to save his mother. One day? Guanyin's return from the East Tour? Go back to the west for the Mid-Autumn Festival? Passing by this day? See that young man picking herbs on the cliff? Deeply moved.

Dream for him at night? It is said that there is a tree called osmanthus in the Moon Palace? Also called osmanthus? With a golden flower? Soak in water to drink? Can cure this plague? On August 15th, there was a ladder on Guabang Mountain to the Moon Palace. This night happens to be August 12? There are still three days before the Mid-Autumn Festival on August 15.

Can you cross seven deep streams to the top of Guabang Mountain? Hanging stones on seven cliffs. At least seven days and seven nights? But time waits for no one? After August 15 this year, you missed the annual osmanthus flowering period? It will take another year.

To make a long story short? This WU GANG has gone through a lot of hardships? Finally reached the summit on the night of August 15? Caught the ladder to the moon palace. August is the season of sweet-scented osmanthus fragrance? Tian Xiang clouds are floating outside.

WU GANG followed the aroma to the osmanthus tree? Looking at the golden osmanthus? See this thing from the sky? Are you happy? He just picked and picked in despair? Always want to pick more and go back to save mom? Save the villagers. But he can't pretend too much? So he thought of a way? He shook the osmanthus tree? Let osmanthus fall one after another? Fell into the river at the foot of Guabang Mountain.

Suddenly? Is the river fragrant? The river was dyed golden yellow? People drink this river? Have all the epidemics been cured? So people say? Where is this river? Is this a river of life-saving water that is more expensive than gold? So people named this river Jinshui. What happened afterwards? Add three points of water next to the gold lettering? Named "dry river"

This night is the gathering of immortals in heaven on August 15? At the meeting, we will also enjoy the moon and eat moon cakes. At this time, the fragrance of osmanthus rushed to the sky? Alarmed the gods? So I sent a survey.

Look at the moon palace? See that the osmanthus trees on Gong Yue's sacred tree and Ding Gong's precious osmanthus trees are gone? All fell into the "dry river" on the earth? I reported it to the Jade Emperor. The Jade Emperor was furious.

You want to know? Does the Jade Emperor like moon cakes made of osmanthus most? There are no osmanthus trees this year? He couldn't eat moon cakes, so he sent heavenly soldiers to catch WU GANG. After WU GANG caught it? Tell the Jade Emperor what happened that night in detail.

It is not easy for the Jade Emperor to say anything after hearing it. Really admire this young man? But is it against the rules of heaven that WU GANG must compete? Without punishing the Jade Emperor, it is impossible to establish the prestige of the Jade Emperor. What does WU GANG want? WU GANG said that he wanted to take osmanthus trees around the world to help the poor.

So the Jade Emperor had an idea? Can punish WU GANG? Can you promise WU GANG's request again? He said? As long as you cut the osmanthus? Take it. So WU GANG found a big axe and cut it? Want to cut down a big tree quickly? Who knows? The jade emperor cast a spell? Cut a knife and grow a knife? So WU GANG cut it for several years? Cutting for thousands of years.

WU GANG saw that cutting down trees would not fail? Homesick? So he leaves a sweet-scented osmanthus on Guabang Mountain every Mid-Autumn Festival night? For homesickness. Year after year? So all the mountains on the list are opened by osmanthus? Villagers use this osmanthus to make tea? There will be no more disasters in Xianning. Besides, there is a girl named Chang 'e in the same village in Wugang? And WU GANG are childhood friends? Two little guesses? Feel the same way? Since WU GANG went to the Moon Palace? She has been taking care of WU GANG's mother? Until the old man died.

WU GANG and Chang 'e separated? Acacia day after day? WU GANG can't cut down osmanthus trees and never come back? Chang 'e is also across the world? Can't go to see Wu Lang. Finally one day? The queen mother took her seven daughters to take a bath in Mingshui Spring at the foot of Guabang Mountain? Chang 'e saw it? Secretly ate the elixir of the seven fairies? Take it home to eat? Take her jade rabbit? Heaven meets WU GANG.

These seven fairies can't go back to heaven without the elixir? Only three days later when her sisters came to take a shower? Go to heaven. You want to know? A day in the sky? A year on earth? In these three years? The seven fairies met Yong Dong? So there is this well-known touching story.

(3) once? Apollo saw very little.

4. The story of osmanthus. According to the poem, in ancient times, there was a widow selling mountain wine at the foot of Liangying Mountain. She is generous and kind, and her wine is mellow and delicious. People respected her and called her Brewmaster.

One winter, it was freezing. Early in the morning, Miss Xianjiu just opened the door and suddenly saw a scrawny man lying outside, obviously a beggar.

Mrs Brewmaster touched the man's nose and mouth, and there was still some breathing, so she took him home, filled him with hot soup first, and fed him half a glass of wine. The man woke up slowly and said excitedly, "madam, thank you for saving his life." I am a paralytic. If I go out, I will starve to death. Please be kind and take me in for a few more days. "

Sister-in-law xianjiu, I'm sorry. As the saying goes, "there is more snow in front of the widow's door." If a man like this lives at home, others will gossip. But think again, you can't watch him freeze to death and starve to death! Finally agreed to let him stay for a while.

As expected, the gossip about Miss Guan Yuxian's wine soon spread, everyone alienated her, and fewer and fewer people came to the hotel to buy wine. But miss Xianjiu endured the pain and took care of the man wholeheartedly.

Later people didn't come to buy wine, and she couldn't keep it up. The man left without saying goodbye. Mrs. Xianjiu was uneasy, looking around, and met a white-haired old man on the hillside, carrying a load of dry wood and walking hard.

Mrs. Xianjiu was about to help when the old man suddenly fell down and the dry wood was scattered all over the floor. The old man closed his eyes, his lips trembled, and he shouted weakly, "Water, water, ..." Where can there be water on the barren hills and slopes? Fairy wine lady bit her middle finger, suddenly, blood flowed. She put her finger on the old man's mouth and he suddenly disappeared. A breeze blew, and a yellow cloth bag was flying in the sky. There were many small yellow paper bags in it, and there was a yellow note that said, "The Moon Palace gave laurel seeds as a reward for good people."

Gao Fu Gui Shu Bi, life is full of flowers and trees. Pick flowers to brew osmanthus wine, and send it to mom and dad first.

WU GANG is helpful, but treacherous. Mrs. Xianjiu realized that this paralytic and the old man carrying firewood were all changed by Wu Gang.

As soon as the news spread, people from far and near came to see Suo Guizi. Well-intentioned people planted cinnamon seeds, and soon they grew osmanthus trees, which were full of sweetness and infinite brilliance.

People with ulterior motives, the cassia seeds planted just don't take root and sprout, so he feels embarrassed and washes his heart for goodness. Everyone is very grateful to miss fairy wine. It was her kindness that touched WU GANG Daxian, who runs osmanthus trees in the Moon Palace, and spread osmanthus wine all over the world. Since then, osmanthus and osmanthus wine have appeared in the world.

5. Poetry about osmanthus fragrans 1. Birds singing in the Tang Dynasty: Wang Wei and osmanthus are idle, and the night is quiet and the mountains are empty.

When the moon comes out, the birds are startled, and the sound enters the spring stream. In the silent valley, only osmanthus is falling silently, and it is deeper in the middle of the night, and everything is silent, like nothing.

The bright moon rises and shines brightly, which alarmed the birds living in the mountains. They sing by the spring from time to time. Second, Wu Bi, the fairy of Queqiao, first appeared in Song Dynasty: Yan Rui and Wu Bi first appeared, osmanthus only vomited, and the water in the pool faded slightly.

The needle-piercer is in He Huanlou, and the jade plate is diarrhea in the first month. Spiders are busy, magpies are lazy, ploughing and weaving are tired, and they have no time to tell ancient and modern stories.

Every other year on the earth refers to the sky, just overnight. It is natural to appreciate words. Although the author observes things in detail, it is somewhat bleak: occasionally blue-green buttonwood leaves fall gently, sweet-scented osmanthus flowers vomit, and lotus flowers wither slightly in the pond.

The girls upstairs are busy threading needles and silently begging the Weaver Maid to give them wisdom and intelligence. Looking at the bright moon hanging high in the distance, it is as clear as water.

On the seventh day of the seventh lunar month, it is a traditional festival of the Han nationality-China Valentine's Day, also known as Begging for Cleverness Festival. On this night, it is said that the beautiful and kind Weaver Maid in the sky will meet the hardworking and brave Cowherd at the Magpie Bridge.

People who wear needles refer to both women in the world and themselves. According to "Miscellanies of Xijing", "Han Cai women often put seven-hole needles on the floor of Jinkai on July 7, and people have aspirations."

This is a custom that has been circulating for thousands of years. On Qixi night, most women in the world will wear nine-hole needles and five-color thread moons. This is a coincidence. Words fail to express their meaning, sentences are strange and strange, and seemingly casual descriptions hide the most meticulous thoughts of an ordinary woman: the spiders in the girls' small boxes are already busy weaving webs, but the magpies in the Milky Way are not busy building bridges.

At this time, the cowherd refused to plow, and the weaver girl had no intention of spinning. They are far away from the Milky Way and watch each other.

It seems that they will live up to expectations tonight and perform such a beautiful and touching love legend that people have been longing for for for thousands of years. This time, the world has to wait a year.

And the cowherd and the weaver girl in the sky, others just, just a one-night lovesickness. She clearly realized that no matter how beautiful she is, she is also like a willow tree that anyone can climb with a smile every day.

Besides, a woman's beautiful youth and a man's favorite beauty will wither like a lotus flower sooner or later. She also said to herself: I only envy Yuanyang, not the immortal.

The legend of the Cowherd and the Weaver Girl is beautiful, but they also watch the two ends of the Milky Way alone. Forcing a smile and taking part in accidental amusement is obviously not the life you want.

She just wants to reap a true and simple love of her own. Love on earth, love in heaven, who is longer than who, who is more romantic than who? Second, the partridge sky osmanthus Song Dynasty: Li Qingzhao is dull, the corpus luteum is soft, and the love is far away.

Why light blue and deep red? It's a first-class flower Ding Mei is jealous, Chrysanthemum should be ashamed, and the Mid-Autumn Festival ends.

A poet can be heartless in thought, but he got nothing in those days. This kind of flower is light yellow, quiet and gentle and shy in appearance.

Xiao's temperament is alienated from the world, but its fragrance lasts for a long time. You don't need to show off in light green or bright red, it's a first-class flower.

Plum blossom must be jealous of it, which is enough to make the late chrysanthemum feel shy. In the garden with gorgeous guardrails, in the timely flowers and trees in the Mid-Autumn Festival, it is unparalleled.

In Li Sao, why not accept Yan Gui? The great poet Qu Yuan is really heartless. Why didn't you accept Yan Gui in Li Sao, which wrote a lot of flowers and trees? Fourth, the voice is slow. Song sings osmanthus: Yushu hangs autumn, and the golden cymbals are mixed with summer branches. People start to shine, and cold powder millet is forbidden to give birth to muscles.

The fragrance is nowhere to be found, and gradually Leng Xiang, the wind dew into Fei. Embroidery exhibition, afraid of falling in the air, turned into fireflies.

The thirty-sixth house was anxious to ask who was holding the golden cup and moved with the moon. Lock the west carriage and you can carry it by hand.

Qiu Lai's temples are full of flowers, but his black veil and drunken relief are very low. It was shaken down, sighing for a long time, and the guest did not return.

Appreciation of Three Sentences in Yun Lan. It is said that the earth in the early morning is shrouded in blue sky and white clouds, and the outdoor osmanthus trees are tall and straight, and the trees are full of osmanthus, like a string of treasures and a rosy cloud.

The sentence "People begin" personifies people with trees. "Zhaoyang", the name of the palace, refers to the palace here.

The osmanthus tree looks like a noble lady who walked out of the palace in the morning. She was excited by the morning breeze and covered in pink millet-Jin Guihua. According to Yang Tiefu's "Notes on the Complete Works of Wu Mengchuang Ci", "Zhao Juzhao Yang Palace is in contact with other bird shooters, ... flying swallows are exposed, breathing smoothly, being comfortable without rash, and the bird shooters think they are immortals."

This code is used backwards here. "Strong fragrance".

The rich fragrance of osmanthus is everywhere, and there seems to be no place to accommodate her floral fragrance. However, if the weather turns cold, although the fragrance of osmanthus is still there, osmanthus will fall like rain and snow.

The three sentences of "embroidery exhibition" are inherited. The green lawn is paved like a carpet, as if afraid that osmanthus will accidentally fall on the steps and be trampled into mud, and afraid that her beautiful image like fireflies will disappear.

"Thirty-six Palace" five sentences, fantasy also. "Thirty-six palaces" refers to the Guanghan Palace on the moon.

"Zhong", that is, shovel, is a kind of agricultural tool used to dig the ground. When the poet saw the laurel tree on the ground, he looked up at the bright moon. In his imagination, Chang 'e, who lives in Guanghan Fairy Palace, is lonely and must be full of troubles.

The poet couldn't help crying out: "Who can bring the golden bell jar?"? Suoxing will bring the laurel trees in the moon palace to the world and plant them in my west wing. In this way, Chang 'e will personally hold the lamp with white hands and drink with me. "

"Qiu Lai" two words, describe yourself in reality. The poet said, "I wonder how many white hairs have been added to my head since autumn?" The black veil and white hair on the head are more black and white.

When I drink alone, I naturally get drunk more easily. I looked at the osmanthus tree outside, and it seemed that it was much shorter. "

"It's shaking down", sigh. The poet said: "When the osmanthus is withered and the ground is golden, I, a long-staying guest, can't go home to reunite with my relatives."

Five, Nian Nujiao Mid-Autumn Festival to Ming Dynasty: Wen Zhiming osmanthus floating jade, the first month street, the night is as cool as washing. The wind is full of eyebrows, and people are in the water.

6. Are there any legends or stories about osmanthus? The legend of Osmanthus fragrans originated from Osmanthus fragrans culture in China. As early as the 3rd century BC, during the Spring and Autumn Period and the Warring States Period, there were records of osmanthus fragrans. Shan Hai Jing Nan Shan Jing mentioned: "The swaying mountain is full of osmanthus."

Shan Hai Jing. "Xishan Jing" mentioned: "There are many osmanthus trees in the high mountains." Chu Quyuan's "Nine Songs" contains: "Help Beidou to drink osmanthus pulp, and Xinyi is a laurel flag."

(Note: "Cinnamon pulp" may be a wine brewed by adding osmanthus; "Guiqi" is a flag made of branches of osmanthus trees, which is used to decorate vehicles made of magnolia wood. It can be seen that the edible and ornamental value of osmanthus fragrans was mentioned in the early Chu literature.

In addition, osmanthus also symbolizes friendship and auspiciousness. It is said that during the Warring States period, Yan and North Korea gave each other osmanthus flowers to show friendship and friendship.

Young men and women often give osmanthus flowers to express their affection in ethnic minority areas where osmanthus flowers are abundant. Lu Chunqiu praised: "The beauty of things is the glory of showing off."

It means that the most beautiful osmanthus tree in the world is swaying on the mountain. It shows that Osmanthus fragrans has become the embodiment of beauty in the eyes of the ancients.

From Han Dynasty to Wei, Jin, Southern and Northern Dynasties, osmanthus became a valuable flower and tribute. The Miscellanies of Xijing written by Liu Xin in the Western Han Dynasty records: "When Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty first built the forest garden, the ministers presented more than 2,000 kinds of exotic flowers and trees, including ten osmanthus trees."

In the sixth year of Ding Yuan in the Han Dynasty (1 1 1), after Emperor Wu broke South Vietnam, Lifu Palace was built in Shanglinyuan, and exotic flowers and trees were widely planted, including 100 osmanthus plants. At this time, most plants were planted, such as bananas, autumn fruits, honey incense, henna, longan, litchi, betel nut, olive, chitose, citrus and so on. , died, but osmanthus fortunately survived.

Sima Xiangru also recorded Mulan in Guiling in Shanglin Fu. It can be seen that the introduction of osmanthus into the palace was successful in the early Han Dynasty and had a certain scale.

August of the lunar calendar, called Gui Yue in ancient times, is the best month to enjoy the moon. Since ancient times, osmanthus fragrans and the bright moon in Mid-Autumn Festival have been linked with the cultural life of our people.

Many scholars write poems and lyrics to describe, praise and even deify osmanthus. A series of moon palace myths, such as "the Goddess Chang'e flying to the moon" and "Wugang's felling of laurel", have become popular stories throughout the ages. The metaphor of his successful career is "climbing high and looking far", which is the goal that ordinary literati yearn for.

According to the relevant classics from Qin and Han Dynasties to Tang and Song Dynasties, the main contents of these fairy tales are as follows: The legend of "the Goddess Chang'e flying to the moon" originated from "returning to Tibet". This is an ancient book about the early years of the Warring States Period.

There is a sentence in the book: "In the past, Chang 'e took the fairy medicine of the Western Queen Mother, so she went to the moon to be refined. "Later, Liu An of the Western Han Dynasty wrote" Huai Nan Zi "(2nd century BC) and other classics, the content of which was more detailed, mainly adding a phrase that Chang 'e changed into a toad, which might be regarded as a punishment for Chang 'e.

"Wu Gang cut Guangxi". This legend is quoted from Youyang Miscellanies (860) in the style of Tang Dynasty: "As the old saying goes, there is a laurel tree in the month and a toad in the month.

So in different books, it is said that the laurel is 500 feet high. One person often chains it, and the tree created it. The surname is Wu Minggang, from Xihe. He learned from the gods and ordered the tree to be cut down. "

Cinnamon's "trees are made with trees" means that the wounds of cutting trees heal quickly, which means that the moon rises and falls, which means that the moon will never die again. So in this legend, the moon and cinnamon are two in one, and cinnamon can symbolize immortality like the moon. The moon won the laurel.

A conversation started with the History of Jin Dynasty. The book said: "Countermeasures first, Emperor Wu asked: I am the best in the world today, and I am still a branch of Guilin."

Generally speaking, the love of ancient literati for sweet-scented osmanthus almost reached the level of infatuation and dreaminess. Zhong Shu, a monk who sang with Su Shi on the same stage in the Song Dynasty, praised osmanthus: "A flower has three colors, tender red, demon white and delicate yellow.

..... Many talented people struggle to climb up and down. Chang 'e said: Of these three kinds of incense, the first one is red (osmanthus fragrans), the second one is yellow (osmanthus fragrans), and the third one is Bai Tan Hua Lang (osmanthus fragrans). "

It means climbing laurel and folding laurel, and it is a metaphor for the imperial examination and the 123 rd place. Influenced by the above myths and stories, it is also common for literati and dignitaries to introduce osmanthus into official residences and gardens.

In the Tang Dynasty, Liu Zong moved more than a dozen osmanthus plants from Hengyang, Hunan Province, and planted them in the quiet house where Lingling lived. During his twenty years as prime minister, Gu De collected a large number of osmanthus trees and introduced them to his villa on the outskirts of Luoyang.

Bai Juyi used to be the secretariat of Hangzhou and Suzhou, and once brought Guizi from Tianzhu Temple in Hangzhou to Suzhou for planting. Not only did he plant cinnamon himself, but he also wanted to plant cinnamon in the moon palace one day. There is a poem about the sun: "I know from a distance that osmanthus is lonely in the sky, but I doubt whether Chang 'e is more indispensable;" "The Moon Palace is fortunate to have idle fields. Why not plant two plants in the middle?"

Since Wei and Jin Dynasties, literati's poems have become popular, with many famous sentences. It highlights the famous products and exotic fragrance of osmanthus, and also expresses feelings through flowers.

Monopoly Sanqiu over other countries, and boast of orange green and orange yellow. From the Mid-Autumn Festival next month, the fruit will float into the sky and smell sweet. "

Written by Lv Shengzhi, a poet in the Song Dynasty. He called osmanthus fragrans the main flower and plant in Sanqiu, which has an extraordinary origin (planted in the middle of the month) and an unusual fragrance (sweet smell).

"Graceful under the rock, fragrant at the end of the year. The leaves are dense green and the flowers are yellow. "

Zhu (1130-1200), a master of Neo-Confucianism in the Song Dynasty, wrote a well-known poem about Guangxi. Language is naturally simple. In just 20 words, the ecological habits (born on the rock ridge), phenology (Mid-Autumn Festival), tall and straight trunk, lush foliage and flowers of osmanthus fragrans are vividly described.

"When the full moon is full, the flowers will stay in shape after the month, but they are ruined by the fake spring. You must know that everything in the world is the same clear autumn. "

This was written by Zhu, a poet in the Song Dynasty. She uses euphemistic and delicate brushstrokes to express beautiful objective things and personal inner world.

On the day of the full moon in August and 15th of the lunar calendar, osmanthus flowers are in full bloom. A full moon is a good person, which is a true portrayal of family reunion and happy life. It's the other side of the vicissitudes of life.

Osmanthus fragrans is not only famous and exotic, but also respected by celebrities in past dynasties. For example, Li Gang, a patriotic celebrity in the Southern Song Dynasty, loves sweet-scented osmanthus. He refused to pay his gold ambition and retired to Fuzhou in his later years. His study was named Guizhai to plant osmanthus.

In two poems entitled "Picking Mulberry", there is such a sentence: "Fragrance is not spring, fragrance is autumn wind, and fragrance is stronger than residual flowers. Stepping on the golden jade, blowing the dragon, blowing the dragon, just like Yao and Taiwan meet under the moon. "

7. the legend of laurel

WU GANG in The Worse Gate is close to Chang 'e on the moon, but he often hangs to greet Chang 'e and neglects his duty. When the Jade Emperor knew about it, he was very angry. He sent WU GANG to cut down a big tree called Moon Tree on the moon. If WU GANG doesn't cut down all the moon trees, he can't go back to the worse gate and see Chang 'e.

WU GANG cut and cut for half a year from winter to summer. When the tree was about to be cut down, the Jade Emperor sent a crow to the moon tree, and with a swish, he took WU GANG's coat hanging on the tree. WU GANG immediately put down his axe and went after the crow. After the clothes were taken back, WU GANG returned to the tree and saw that all the branches and leaves that had been cut were born on the tree again. From then on, whenever Wu Gang wanted to cut down a tree, crows would stand on the tree and crow loudly. As long as WU GANG stops to take a look at the axe, the tree will grow branches again.

In this way, year after year, WU GANG cut down more trees than this moon tree. Only on August 16 every year will a leaf fall from the moon to the ground. Anyone who finds the leaves of this moon tree will get inexhaustible gold and silver jewelry.
