Lilac? To highlight love.
Mao Wenxi's "Gengluozi·Spring Night Late" from the Five Dynasties
Spring night is late, spring is full of hatred, and the flowers outside are crying at the moon. Without people, it is difficult to rely on dreams, just a little red gauze lamp. Partial resentment and farewell are the Fang Festival, and there are thousands of lilacs knotting under the court. The evening fog disperses, the dawn glows, and the two swallows fly between the beams.
In Wei Zhuang's "Mourn for the Dead Princess", "How can bamboo leaves eliminate accumulated hatred, and lilacs empty to tie knots of one heart", he uses lilacs to tie empty knots of one heart to contrast his grief for losing his beloved concubine.
The image of lilac in ancient poetry is a symbol of beauty, nobility and melancholy.
The fallen trees rustled, and the honeysuckle under the glazed leaves was spitting. The fragrant and soft tree is elegantly known as secluded and interesting. There is no intention to compete for the first place, Mei Rui is not jealous of each other. Containing spring rain, it brings with it thousands of melancholy thoughts, like remembering the master of Jiangnan. ? (Wang Shipeng of the Southern Song Dynasty, "Dian Jiang Lip·Su Fragrant Lilac")
The bluebird does not convey the message from the clouds, and the lilacs are empty and full of sorrow in the rain.
(Li Jing, "Breaking Through the Huanxi Sands, Hand-rolled Pearls with Jade Hooks" from the Southern Tang Dynasty)
