"Drink Mulan dew early and eat autumn chrysanthemum late." (Warring States Chu? Qu Yuan's Lisao), the poet symbolizes the nobleness of his character by drinking dew and eating flowers.
"The bushes in autumn are like Taoist priests, and the edges around the fence are more and more inclined. It's not that chrysanthemums are preferred in flowers, but that this flower is even more flowerless. " (Tang? Yuan Zhen's Chrysanthemum expresses the poet's pursuit of loyalty and noble character.
"It is better to hold incense on the branches and die than to blow in the north wind" (Zheng Sixiao's "Cold Chrysanthemum")
Poems such as "The lonely east hedge is wet and the sand shines before the gold" (Fan Chengda's "Two Chrysanthemums after Chongyang") all use chrysanthemums to express the poet's lofty spiritual quality, and the chrysanthemums here undoubtedly become a portrayal of the poet's personality.
