Extended data:
The poem Guo Feng Nan Zhou Yao Tao is divided into three chapters, each with four sentences. Modern scholars generally believe that this is a poem to congratulate a girl on her marriage. According to the Zhou Li, "Mid-spring makes men and women." Girls in the Zhou Dynasty usually get married when peach blossoms are in full bloom in spring, so the poet started with peach blossoms and sang a hymn for the bride, which is similar in nature to the "makeup words" sung at later folk weddings.
The language of the whole poem is extremely beautiful and concise. It not only skillfully turns into various inverted sentences and synonyms, but also uses the word "one" repeatedly, revealing the beautiful character of the new bride living in harmony with her family, and also writing her beautiful character to inject fresh blood into the newly-built family and bring a harmonious and happy atmosphere.
At the beginning of this poem, "Peach flies and burns its brilliance" is not only a sentence of "Xing", but also contains the meaning of "Bi", which has a great influence on later generations. It is often said that the first person who compares beauty to flowers is a genius, the second is a mediocrity and the third is a fool. The Book of Songs is China's first collection of poems, so it is no exaggeration to say that it compares beauty with flowers for the first time.
Since then, flowers, especially peach blossoms, have been used to describe the endless stream of beautiful women, such as "Love for Flowers in the Past" written by Ruan Ji in Wei and Jin Dynasties: "Peach and plum blossom every day, and they shine brightly." In the Tang Dynasty, Cui Hu wrote "Titu Chengnan Village": "Last year today, at this gate, peach blossoms set each other off." The words in Chen Shidao's "Bodhisattva Man Beauty" in the Northern Song Dynasty: "The jade wrist pillow is fragrant, and the peach blossom face is open." They all have their own characteristics, but they are all influenced by Nan Zhou Yao Tao's poem.
In ancient literary works, words such as "face like peach blossom" and "gorgeous like peach and plum" are often used to describe women's good looks, which is also inspired by the poem "Nan Zhou Yao Tao", and "face like peach blossom" has become a classic artistic conception in Chinese classical poetry.
