Yuanren Yilan

Excerpts from the works of Gulan-- 3, the Tang Guo Ligularia tree book in the Art of the Yuan Dynasty, it is said that the species of orchids are afraid of dampness and avoid sprinkling water most. Yuan Kong Jingqi (Keqi) to upright records, the ancient saying of orchid: like sunny and evil day; like yin and hate dampness; like seclusion and dislike; like bushes and evil dense. If you want to dry, you don't want to go through the hot sun; if you want to moisten, you don't want to pour more water; if you want to hide, you don't want to be desolate; if you want to flourish, you will fail. Another old saying goes: there are bamboo square Peilan, that is, like sunny and evil day, like secluded and remote meaning. Yilan often buys in the sparse bamboo forest, even if it is sunny and there is no hot sun, it will not be too wet when it rains. At this point, I realized that Xu Qingteng gave a magnificent orchid poem with the phrase "Xinzhuaoqu surrounded by nursery, Jasper hanging flowers carved into strips". And Shanyin Orchid Pavilion preface of Mao Lin Xiu bamboo, exactly in line with the ancient saying, "there are bamboo square Peilan". It can be seen that the ancient characters are all non-universal.
