I love orchids. Orchids love me.

Carry forward the national orchid culture and spread the knowledge of orchids

I love orchids, orchids love me; four seasons punctual, warm fragrance as promised. All the gorgeous orchids are noble and dignified but not demon, charming and elegant in the immortal; Huizhong or elegant, Dan Bingji jade bone element is just like the breeze and bright moon, not a "pure" word can be said, so the Chinese literati Yong Lan Songhui has many masterpieces, or self-metaphor, or send scenery to express, or according to fragrance Ming Zhi, there are many good poems such as songs for thousands of years.

Qu Yuan, a famous patriotic poet, devoted all his life to his wisdom and worried about the country and the people. although he had lofty ambitions, he was repeatedly slandered and alienated. During his exile, he was worried, angry and lonely, and wrote many immortal poems with Lanhui as his companion. In Nine songs, qu Yuan sang about the beauty of orchids: "Qiu Lan Xi Milu Wu, Luo Sheng went down the hall." Green leaves Xi vegetarian branches, Fangfei Xi attack; autumn orchid Xi green, green leaves Xi purple stem. The house is full of beauties, but all of a sudden there is nothing left to see. " This poem is dedicated to the graceful grace of Orchid, which is really elegant and unrestrained and full of vitality, like a lifelike Dan Qing painting, with ink fragrance overflowing and Zixia flying. In his "Lisao", "Nine songs" and other works, qu Yuan also wrote: "Yu Zilan Jiuyi, Shu Hui 100 mu Xi", "Bath Orchid Soup Xi Mu Fang, sewing Qiu Lan thinks to wear", "when it is warm, the orchid is extended", "the household service Ai Yiying wants Xi, saying that the quiet orchid does not wear it", this kind of companionship with the orchid, taking the orchid as a friend, Tolan speaks of his mind and artistic conception. It fully demonstrates the valuable quality and personality of the Chinese literati despite repeated sufferings but unswerving spiritual pursuit.

The gentleman loves the orchid, and the Lanhui gentleman. There is also a very interesting legend about qu Yuan and orchids: during the reign of King Huai of Chu, qu Yuan was framed by treacherous officials, dismissed from office, returned to his hometown, that is, Zigui County, present-day Hubei Province, and set up a school in Jiuyuxi at the foot of Xiannu Mountain to personally teach his hometown disciples, aiming to train more talents for the State of Chu. According to legend, this is the place where the poem "Yu Zi Lan Jiu Xi" in Li Sao is said. According to legend, one day the orchid lady of Fairy Mountain was looking for a trip. When she was driving Xiangyun through this place, she suddenly heard the sound of qu Yuan's lecture, so she dropped the cloud and stood under the window to listen attentively. The thin qu Yuan was immortal, and he waved his hands and made impassioned speeches about how to revitalize the State of Chu. His unswerving patriotism deeply moved the orchid lady, so she was willing to perform magic when she left. Turn the three blooming orchids under the window into essence. It is strange to say that since the orchid was enchanted by immortals, it took root in the ground, took new buds the next day, spread its branches and leaves in three days, blossomed in four days, grew from plants to canopies in five days, and rose to clumps in six days. In this way, every day after class, qu Yuan led the students to plant along the stream, and for a long time, orchids spread all over the mountains. The woodcutter in the mountain said happily, "our magical mountain country, it is really time to change its name to Zhilan Township." Subsequently, the orchid developed from three to six, and gradually expanded from six to nine. From then on, the Qingxi at the foot of Fairy Mountain was called Jiuyi Creek. From then on, the orchids by Jiuyi River seem to flourish year after year, fragrant and intoxicating, Xiuying Chutian! Now the orchid inscription "Doctor Su" can occasionally be seen in the Zhilan Temple in Hubei Province. It is said that this is Mr. qu Yuan's favorite at that time. In order to commemorate and remember this great patriotic poet, future generations have much respect and cherish. If there is a pot in the study, it will be a pleasure for scholars.

There is an inextricable relationship between the legendary qu Yuan and the orchid, and the widely spread orchid poems in reality all reflect the figure of qu Yuan. The literary style of "songs of Chu" founded by him, that is, the literary style of "ci Fu". For thousands of years, it not only glorifies the beautiful image of orchids, but also shows different chants and pursuits through the display of orchids. Orchids-ci Fu, ideal-life. Qu Yuan and the orchid achieved eternal life in the blend of milk and water. In his poems Li Sao, Nine songs and Nine chapters, qu Yuan wrote about how to nourish orchid, Peilan, sewing orchid, magnolia and cutting orchid. He placed boundless hope on orchids: "I not only nourish nine orchids, but also a hundred mu of trees." The branches and leaves are so luxuriant that I would like to cut them as soon as possible. " He took the orchid as his friend and the orchid as his bosom friend: "when it is warm, it will be warm, and the orchid will be extended." He took the orchid as an object, expressing his own sentiment of self-purification of fragrant grass: "Hu Jiang left and Zi Zhi Zhi, sewing Qiulan thought he was wearing it." He was also worried that Lan withered and followed the vulgarity in the autumn wind of Cold Dew, and defected without fragrance: "when the riot changes, how can it be flooded?" Angelica dahurica has changed but not fragrant, and Quan Puhua has become the best. " The above are just a few examples of Lan in Lisao, which shows how qu Yuan is Ailan, Songlan, affectionate to Lan, and Tolan satirized. Lan is not a simple metaphor or touch, but a symbol, a kind of sustenance, an embodiment of spirit and personality.

Data show that the orchid is not only the figure and incarnation of a gentleman, but also a kind of auspicious grass. If the place is prosperous, the orchid will flourish, and if the house is not going well, it can be transformed into several pots. As early as in the Wei and Jin dynasties, Ji Kang, one of the Seven Sages of the Bamboo Forest, once praised the orchid in his poems and said: "the orchid is kind and planted in the Central Plains." The green leaves are lush and the seaweed is rich. Fu Fu Huifang, announced downwind, will be the royal pepper room, spit smoked Longxuan. When I look at the autumn grass, I feel sad but Qian. " This poem takes autumn grass as an analogy, which not only eulogizes the color and fragrance of orchid, but also emphasizes her role of Xinfen pepper room, and fully expresses the poet's love and attachment to orchids.

Chen Ziang, a great genius in the history of Chinese literature and a poet of the Tang Dynasty, once praised the orchid in his poem: "Lan Ruosheng spring and summer, Wei he Qingqing." You are alone in the forest, and Zhu Kui has purple stems. Late day and night, curl Qiu Fengsheng. When the years are shaking down, how can you achieve anything? " This poem begins with the lush of orchid leaves, the beauty of orchids, the fearlessness of orchid baths in autumn, and the sadness of orchid wild ridges. Through the different sighs of orchids in the four seasons, the poet placed on his own talent and ambition, painted scenery, sent far-reaching feelings.

Zhu Xi, a master of Neo-Confucianism in the Song Dynasty, also wrote many poems about orchids, such as Yonghui: "Today's flowers have the ancient name, and the beautiful fragrance is better." If you want to forget your words, you can grow old when you weave dust. " The Confucian masters who originally explained the scriptures can not only comment on the classics of their ancestors, but also freely express their deep-seated preferences and joy, even some delusions and ecstasy. Another example is "Lanjian": "Guangfeng floating Bijian, Landuri chair; unexpectedly old no one to pick, he Xunxun only knows." Here not only writes the orchid unappreciated when picking frustrated mood, but also for the orchid situation lonely sympathy and concern. Another example is "Qiu Lan has pined away to learn the ancient times with its roots": "the autumn to the grass is dark, lonely Cold Dew. As soon as Langao languishes, filth cannot be cured. The thought of the end of the house is far from the line, and there is nothing left to think about. Wish words to support loneliness and hatred, and live for a long time. " Autumn wind Cold Dew, orchids haggard, leaves withered, dragon roots do not wither, Heshi is full of firm faith in the future.

The ancients used to be, and so are today. Zhang Xueliang, a famous anti-Japanese general, loved orchids all his life. He thought that "orchids are gentlemen among flowers, their fragrance is also light, and their appearance is elegant." In his later years, he said that he "lived a life of beauty and beauty." "famous flower" means orchid. In a poem on orchid, he wrote: "Fang has a reputation all over the world and has settled down to ten thousand families." Ye Li contains righteousness, but the flower Yan is not flashy. Evergreen fight cold, smile in the middle of summer. A true gentleman in a flower is elegant in grace. " The sound of gold and jade has a far-reaching meaning, and the praise of orchids is even more profound.
