What is the flying flower order?

Flying Flower Order, originally a word game during the drinking order of the ancients, originated from the interest of ancient poetry and got its name from the famous sentence "Flowers are flying all over the sky in the spring city" in Han Yi's Cold Food in the Tang Dynasty. When flying flowers, you can choose sentences from poems and songs, but the sentences you choose generally do not exceed seven words.

Hebei Satellite TV's "Good Poetry in China" column was the first to introduce and improve the "Flying Flower Order" for the competition between two contestants, and then the poetry variety columns such as "Chinese Poetry Conference" also introduced and improved the "Flying Flower Order".

The Golden Eagle cartoon "Descendants of the Dragon Season 3" also introduced the flying flower order in the arena of Magee.

Historical origin

Flying Flower Order was originally one of the games to add fun by drinking, and the loser would be fined for drinking.

Liquor order is an important part of liquor culture. It is a game of feasting for fun, which originated from the Confucian Book of Rites and was first born in the Zhou Dynasty. The drinking order is not only the expression of the ancient hospitality tradition, but also the crystallization of their drinking art and wisdom.

The drinking order represented by "Flying Flower Order" is actually a unique entertainment game for China people when drinking. Flying flowers make it elegant and smart, and people without poetry skills can't play it at all, so this kind of wine order has become a favorite word game for literati, and even its name comes from poetry. Because there is a phrase in Han Yi's famous poem Cold Food in the Tang Dynasty that "flowers are flying all over the sky in the spring city", it is named "Flying Flower Order".

In fact, there are many poems with the word "flying flowers" in the Tang Dynasty, such as Wu's "Flying flowers are silent, swallows are in pairs", Gu Kuang's "Flying flowers cover sandalwood", Xue Ji's "Flying flowers scatter coral branches" and "Flying flowers on the road". Only "flowers fly everywhere in the spring city" is the recognized origin of the "flower flying order" There are two reasons. One is that Han Yi is a poet admired by Tang Dezong Shili, and the other is that Han Yi himself is a good drinker. Many of his poems are related to wine.
