In the late Tang Dynasty, Huang Chao wrote a poem entitled "Chrysanthemum":
"Whispering westerly winds are planted all over the yard, and cold butterflies are hard to come by. If I am Di Qing next year, I will report peach blossoms. "
In this poem, Huang Chao dreamed that he became a fairy in charge of spring, so that chrysanthemums and other flowers could bloom in spring without being left out in the cold. Moreover, this poem contains Huang Chao's early concern for the poor and his determination to change their status, and this poem expresses his will by expressing things. However, when Huang Chao led an army to conquer Chang 'an, came to the Tang Palace, boarded the Taiji Hall, and saw thousands of maids kneeling down to greet him and shouting "Long live the Yellow Emperor", he had forgotten that "if I were Di Qing next year, I would report peach blossoms". He smiled and said, "What happened today is almost an act of God!"
According to "Biography of Huang Chao in Old Tang Dynasty", Huang Chao hated the fact that Fang Shi's people met Julian Waghann, which made his own army at a disadvantage, so he ordered a massacre and killed all the adult men, and the blood became a river. Huang Chao, who failed in the imperial examination that year, wrote a poem about chrysanthemums: "I was in Qiu Lai on September 8th, and I killed all the flowers when they opened. Tianxiang permeates Chang 'an, and the city is full of golden flowers. "
In other words, we can see what Huang Chao's real intention is, "If one day, Qing Yunzhi dares to laugh at Huang Chao's husband", which means accusing Huang Chao of forgetting his promise to the poor after he took office. Song Jiang doesn't think he is better than Huang Chao, but despises his cruelty and autocracy, and doesn't think he is glorious even though he was defeated.
