The Allusion of Xue Zhiqian's "The Phoenix with the Head"

I want to know all the stories behind it. Thank you!
The lyrics were as follows:
Some people in the chaos of separation
Half a bronze mirror
Drifting through the years, it's as new as new
At midnight outside Mawei Slope
Leave three feet of white silk
The autumn wind blows away her fate
Someone in the cracked pond
See a pair of carp
Use your saliva to wake each other up
Someone is outside the pavilion with lush grass
Send your lover away
The setting sun shines on her disc-like eyes
I'm singing the phoenix
Look at how heavy the wind and moon are in the world
I broke Yu Linglong
Meeting and parting are too hurried
In the Weiyang Palace, the beautiful women are dressed in beautiful clothes.
Dance a little red
Unravel the Garden Dream
The falling swan leaves, the broken sound, a prosperous dream
After I finish singing the song,
I sigh that my love has been teased since ancient times
I broke the brocade lotus
After a thousand years, it's still empty
A city of fluttering catkins, a few spring breezes
It's useless to regret
Unravel the Garden Dream
I drink a few cups of melancholy, and after singing, it still hurts

Xue Zhiqian's "The Phoenix with a Head" was a classic ancient song. One of the allusions was called "The Phoenix with a Head"(dào téu féng).

It was said that in ancient China, the phoenix was a kind of jewelry usually worn by women. The head of the phoenix was usually covered with jade, while the front end was usually closed, while the back end was open, shaped like a butterfly.

In ancient times, the bride would usually wear a phoenix to symbolize her purity and nobility. Xue Zhiqian's "The Phoenix with a Head" referred to the theme of the song, which was to describe a pure love story.

Xue Zhiqian's "The Phoenix with a Dragon Head" thus became a very classic ancient song that was widely welcomed.
