Millennium God flower

According to the annals of the county, after Wang Mang usurped the Han Dynasty between the two Han Dynasties, he sent troops to kill Liu Xiu, the patriarchal clan of the Han Dynasty. One day, a dusty, sweaty general in a war robe came straight to North Hao village. It was the time of war and chaos, and no one in the villagers dared to do anything, so they were scared to close their doors. The general dismounted, knocked on the door with sweat, begged for a bowl of water, and found a place to escape, even if there was an old temple. A villager said through the door that there is no well or temple in this village. Run outside the village quickly. The general was helpless and sighed: "there is a scene in Beihao village. There is no temple or well. The earth master lives in a hole in the wall." (up to now, the landlords of people's homes in our area are worshipped in the holes in the wall of yingmen.).

As soon as the words came to an end, the wind and smoke billowed outside the village, banners and banners covered the sun, and the horses neighed, and the pursuit was coming. Knowing that he was in danger, the general quickly beat his horse, raised his whip and ran forward. At the head of the village, he saw a temple with a broken wall and jumped in. "Poop" and fainted under the flowers. Strange to say, the flower spread its branches and leaves, and covered the general tightly. The pursuers came to the temple and looked for the general in the East and West, but they did not see him. A white horse ran forward, so they ordered the soldiers to chase him.

After an hour, the general in a coma was awakened by the fragrance of flowers. When he opened his eyes, he saw that he was lying in the flowers, and all the peonies were open, red like the morning glow. He suddenly felt relaxed and happy. His hunger and thirst disappeared, and he leaped away. The general was Liu Xiu, Emperor Guangwu, who later became emperor in Qianqiu Pavilion in Funan, Baixiang. Liu Xiu, the emperor of Guangwu, visited Hebei Province after he became emperor. When he passed through Baixiang, he wrote a poem about peony: King Xiao avoided the desolation and the well temple was not very desolate. Only a few peonies, loyal to the king. The name of peony in Han Dynasty comes from it.

According to folk legend, peony and peony in the Han Dynasty are divine flowers, which are made by fairies. During the two Han Dynasties, Emperor Guangwu Liu Xiu once hid himself from Wang Mang and wrote a poem: "King Xiao avoided the desolate village, and there was no desolation in the well temple. There were only a few peony flowers, so he remained loyal to the king.". Hence the name of peony in Han Dynasty.

Five wonders of peony in Han Dynasty

1、 It's a long time ago.

It has been recorded in Han Dynasty for more than 2000 years. It was more than 500 years earlier than the peony of Tang Dynasty in Luoyang and 1400 years earlier than the peony of Ming Dynasty in Heze. It can be called one of the best in China and the most in the world. (Note: the peony of Tang Dynasty in Luoyang or that of Ming Dynasty in Heze does not survive to this day alone, but has been planted since then. Generally, the life span of peony is only a few decades, and that of peony over a hundred years is rare.)

2、 The same plant has different flowers.

On the same tree peony of Han Dynasty, the peony flowers with different colors, flower types and layers can be produced. There are lotus type, chrysanthemum type, thousand layer pavilion type.

3、 You can't live in another place.

The peony of Han Dynasty could only be cultivated in this pond, but it could not survive without it. After 1937, when the Japanese invaders invaded China, the leader of the Japanese army stationed in the county tried to dominate the famous flowers. Twice, he sent people to dig deeply and brought soil back to Japan for planting. Although he watered and fertilized, he still fought to death and died. In the Han Dynasty, the peony was plundered and its branches and leaves dried up. It was not until 1949, after the liberation of the whole country, that the roots and branches of the peony of the Han Dynasty came back to life and the flowers bloomed again. Therefore, people also praise the Han peony for its national integrity and patriotism. Later, it was transplanted, but still failed to survive.

4、 I don't know.

There are not only ancient myths (entering the earth to become a flower, the Savior of peony), but also modern Mysteries: in the year of the death of Emperor Guangxu and Empress Dowager Cixi in the Qing Dynasty, there were two white flowers. In 1976, there were three more white flowers. In that year, Premier Zhou Enlai, chairman Zhu De and Chairman Mao Zedong died one after another.

5、 It has aura.

On the stone tablet in the 16th year of Guangxu reign of the Qing Dynasty, it is recorded that the Han peony in Baixiang "always has aura". From the older generation, there has been a saying that "when flowers bloom, they know the state affairs, when they flourish, they will be prosperous, and when they decline, they will be short of years".
