How much do you know about the origin of this flower language? Today, the editor wants to learn about the story of narcissus with you. Let's read on!
Legend One
It is said that narcissus is the incarnation of Yao Emperor's daughters, Ehuang and Nuying. They both married Shun, with the older sister as the queen and the younger sister as the concubine, and the three of them had a great relationship. Although they were born into the royal family and were empresses, they were deeply influenced and taught by Yao and Shun. They did not indulge in pleasure but always cared about the sufferings of the people. When they heard that Shun died during his southern inspection tour, Ehuang and Nuying both died of grief in the Xiangjiang River. The heavens pitied the deep love of the two and turned their spirits into narcissus by the river, making them the flower gods of the narcissus in December.
Legend Two
It is said that Chongming narcissus comes from Fujian. In the Tang Dynasty, Empress Wu Zetian wanted all flowers to bloom at the same time in her imperial garden. The heavenly flower god did not dare to defy her order, and the six Fujian narcissus sisters were no exception, being forced to go west to Chang'an.
The youngest sister did not want to bloom for the empress alone, so she passed through the Yangtze River estuary and saw a piece of pure land in the middle of the river. She secretly slipped down to Chongming Island. Therefore, the Fujian narcissus has five flowers per plant, while the Chongming narcissus has one blooming flower.
