Du Heng and Du Ruo's Metaphor
In ancient culture and literary works, Du Heng and Du Ruo might have different metaphor, but this needed to be analyzed in the context of specific cultural context and literary works. From a botanical point of view, the two were confused. Du Heng was a perennially herbaceous plant belonging to the Aristolochiae family and the Asgard, while Du Ruo in modern botany was a perennially herbaceous plant belonging to the Commelina family. However, in ancient literature, the relationship between the two was complicated. Some people believed that Du Ruo was Du Heng, while others believed that the two were different things with the same name. In literary works such as " Dream of the Red Chamber "," Du Ruo " and " Wu " were mentioned. Here, Du Ruo and Wu referred to the creeping and fragrant herbs that grew on the ground. They might be a metaphor for a beautiful natural thing with fragrance. Due to their confusion in ancient herbal records and their unique fragrance, they may be used as a metaphor for good quality or elusive things. However, the specific meaning of the metaphor may vary according to the creative intention of different authors, the theme of the work, the cultural background, and other factors. It is difficult to give a unified and absolute metaphor explanation. The novel "Acanthus Flower Blossoms" is equally wonderful. Everyone is welcome to click and read it!
