Panthesia is a common flower that belongs to the Eupatoraceae family. It has purple, blue, white and other flower colors and is very popular among people. In Chinese, the word "Qijin" refers to a kind of delicate and elegant flowers and plants, and is often used to describe the character and temperament of literati.
The pansy is widely used in ancient literature. For example, in Du Fu's "An Autumn Night to Xing Yuanwai", "Three horns of dawn have been sung in the frosty sky, and the silver man should be hanging in the white room with frost. The scent of the pansy flower is traced by the dew." Heavy, Wu Wazhuang is scattered across the curtain." Such a poem vividly describes the silence and coldness of the autumn night, as well as the beauty and fragrance of the pansy flowers. In some poems and prose, pansy is used as a metaphor for the fresh and refined atmosphere and to describe the sentiments of literati.
According to legend, the flower language of pansy is "missing", and there is a beautiful legend behind it. According to legend, in the ancient Han Dynasty, a beautiful woman named Qi Jin was moved by the wild flowers in the barren mountains and fields, so she met a traveling scribe, and the two became a deeply in love couple. But unfortunately, Nanjin became seriously ill and passed away. After Qijing's death, scribes buried her in a place full of wild flowers in memory of her and painted her coffin with wild flowers as patterns to express their love for her. Therefore, pansy has become a flower that symbolizes purity, beauty, longing and loyalty. It is loved and respected by people both in literature and in daily life.
