Why do many men wear flowers in New Water Margin? That's hilarious.

It's terrible to have no culture The landlord had better go home and study hard, and don't always surf the Internet! !

Men wear flowers, but Tang has them. However, it is not very common. During the Ming and Qing Dynasties, I did this occasionally. It was only in the Song Dynasty that it became common for men to wear flowers. If you don't believe me, go back and read the water margin again, and you will find that Liangshan heroes are simply "flowers":

The disease is Yang Xiong, "I love inserting hibiscus flowers in my temples"; The prodigal son Yan Qing "has four seasons of flowers on his temples"; Ruan Xiaowu "wears a broken headscarf and pomegranate flowers on his temples"; Cai Qing, the executioner and juryman, was born to love a flower, so people simply called him "a flower" Cai Qing. ...

Fiction is a true reflection of real life. People in Song Dynasty dare to wear flowers so wantonly. Of course, there is an official fashion trend leading ahead. Among them, the romantic monarch Song Huizong is the most fashionable benchmark. Every time Song Huizong travels back to the palace, he always wears a small hat, hairpin flowers and rides a horse. All courtiers and guards who follow him are also given flowers and hairpins. Hui Zong not only advocated wearing flowers, but also formulated some rules. He gave each guard a coat and a golden flower with green leaves. Only those who have palace flowers and brocade jackets can freely enter and leave ouchi. Men's hairpin flowers developed to the Song Dynasty, almost to the extreme. A small hairpin flower has even become a symbol of social status and rank. This is recorded in detail in the important historical note "Tieweishan Conghua" in the Song Dynasty. Every major festival, such as the memorial service in the suburbs, the palace banquet and the banquet of new scholars, the emperor will present flowers to his officials. The flowers that the emperor gave his courtiers were also graded: when the Liao ambassador was present at the birthday party, he used silk flower; Spring and Autumn Banquet, with beautiful Luobo flowers; At the small banquet with the emperor, we used exquisite golden drops ... when sending flowers, we also decided how much according to the rank of officials. It can be described as pecking and orderly.
