In fact, Sao among literati also represents the poet's meaning. Only works with high literary achievements can be called poets, so Sao should be understood as poets and literati. Yes, yes, this is a kind of respect for people.
First, the origin of Sao characters in ancient literature, coquettish is often used to describe literati, mainly because Sao characters were handed down from Qu Yuan's era. Qu Yuan was a famous patriotic poet, so he also wrote many famous literary works during the Warring States Period, which were poems expressing his feelings. Moreover, Qu Yuan's poems also broke the poetic rules of The Book of Songs and created a new literary style, which is a reform in the history of literature. Most of his poems were named after Sao, so the ancients used Sao instead of Qu Yuan's literary achievements. One of Qu Yuan's most famous and well-known poems is Li Sao, which was written on his deathbed and spread through the ages. Therefore, this form of poetry is called Sao poetry by later generations, which has a great influence on later literary works. Therefore, later generations mostly replaced the Excellence of Qu Yuan's works with coquettish, and later derived the praise for the works of emerging poets, which explained a new situation and the emotional fullness of poetry. Naturally, for poets with high literary achievements who only write plaintive poems, Sao can be used to praise and address them.
Secondly, Sao became a noun to praise poets in the later stage of development. This word has a bad meaning in the current dictionary, but it has a frivolous meaning, but the literati is a commendatory term. Because Qu Yuan's poems in Sao style are very famous, he enjoyed and loved them very much during the period of Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty. At that time, there was a wave of imitating poems in Sao style, which was full of romantic lyric feelings. Since then, Sao has become synonymous with praising poems and poets in the history of ancient literature. Poets who write new forms to express their feelings are called poets, so literati are also called poets. This kind of poet mainly refers to the poet who writes lyric poems, which is a kind of praise for the poet's literary attainments. Therefore, it has been passed down to this day, and the literati poet is also a name for the poet. Sao refers to a poet who writes poems full of emotion and has high literary attainments. Therefore, literati and poets are used to describe poets with full poems and high literary attainments. They are a commendatory term, which is completely different from the meaning in modern Chinese dictionaries.
Scholars, also known as literati and poets, mainly refer to intellectuals who write literary works, but poets who write love poems. Describing the poet's coquettish is a great compliment to the poet, so the literati's coquettish is a compliment and a compliment to the poet's literary achievements.
