Since ancient times, the term "cloud and rain" has been commonly used to refer to sexual love in novels, notes, poetry, and sanqu throughout history. In "Dream of the Red Chamber", there is a time when "Jia Baoyu first tested Yun Yu Qing", where he wrote that Baoyu had a sexual dream and had sex with a close maid named Xiren for the first time. So, where does the origin of "cloud and rain" and sex begin? There is also a story behind it.
The earliest record of cloud and rain is the noun bestowed on Song Yu in the late Warring States period. In the preface to the Gaotang bestowal, it tells a fascinating story with mythological colors.
According to records, Song Yu and King Xiang of Chu visited Mount Wu together. In the distance, the peaks were like dais, clouds and mist filled the air, and everything was changing rapidly. King Xiang of Chu couldn't help but ask, 'What is that cloud?'? Song Yu replied: This is Chaoyun. He explained that when King Huai of Chu visited here, he was too tired to sleep. In the dream, Nana's daughter drifted in, claiming to be the goddess of Wushan. King Huai of Chu was here, admiring others and wanting to recommend a pillowcase. King Huai of Chu was naturally happy, and the two of them felt sad overnight. At dawn, the goddess advocated to go. When she was about to leave, she told King Huai of Chu that she lived in a dangerous place on a high hill south of Wushan. In the morning, it turned into morning clouds, and in the evening, it turned into rain. After selling his soul overnight, King Huai of Chu was disappointed and did not wake up when he saw the beautiful woman go away. Afterwards, when he saw the cloud, it was still said by the goddess.
Later researchers have different opinions on the original intention of Song Yu in writing this text, but the allusion of Yun Yu is here. The goddess is dressed in clouds and rain to confuse the goddess, and the clouds and rain confuse the goddess, adding to the strange and beautiful ideas of future generations of Wu Shan and Yun Yu. Gradually, later literati began to use clouds and rain as a substitute for fish love between men and women. The Tang Dynasty poet Yuan Zhen has a clever and unparalleled line. He once experienced the sea and was unable to turn it into water, but Wushan is not a cloud used to express condolences and attachment to his deceased wife. The use of clouds and rain to express sexual love is dull and elegant, which is very in line with the psychological characteristics of ancient people and fully reflects the profound and subtle sexual psychology of elegant people.
In sexual intercourse, both men and women are comfortable, and the deep fusion of water and milk is also very consistent with the word 'cloud and rain'. Especially when sexual intercourse reaches its climax, it roams like clouds and sky. Therefore, modern people also enjoy ups and downs; Use clouds and rain to describe sexual intercourse.
