2. What legend does the yugiri flower have?

Yugiri is one of the main characters in The Tale of Genji, the son of Genji and his formal wife Aoi. He rose to the office of Minister of the Left. Shortly after Yugiri was born, his mother passed away, and in his youth his father was also persecuted by political enemies, convicted, and exiled to Suma. Therefore, Yugiri lacked the care of his parents in childhood. He and his cousin Kumoi no Kari were both raised by their grandmother.

The name Kumoi no Kari means a lone wild goose flying apart from the flock in the clouds. She is a very lovely little girl, the daughter of the Naidaijin. Because her parents did not get along and divorced, and she was not accepted by her father's formal wife, she was handed over by her father to her grandmother to raise. She and Yugiri could be said to be childhood sweethearts, innocent playmates, with especially deep feelings for each other.

Unfortunately, happy days never last long. The affair of the two children was discovered by the Naidaijin. The Naidaijin had originally wanted to wait until Kumoi no Kari grew up and send her into the imperial palace to compete for the position of empress, thereby increasing the power of his own family. Now that things had come to this, in his disappointment he was extremely angry, blamed his mother for not properly educating the two grandchildren, and regarded marriage between cousins as dull and embarrassing. So he broke up the young couple, took Kumoi no Kari back home, and gradually became estranged from Yugiri.

In his sorrow, Yugiri made a promise with Kumoi no Kari that when he grew up he would certainly make a name for himself and would no longer let his uncle look down on him, and then he would marry Kumoi no Kari openly and honorably. Genji felt sorry for his son and also blamed the Naidaijin for being unreasonable, so he began to train Yugiri. He believed that under his grandmother's doting care Yugiri could not become accomplished, so he took Yugiri back to the Rokujo estate and had Hanachirusato recognized as his adoptive mother. Throughout his life Genji never allowed Yugiri to approach Murasaki, to prevent Yugiri from repeating his own mistakes with Fujitsubo.

Hanachirusato was very wise and open-minded, cared greatly for this adopted son, and often guided him. Genji hired tutors to properly teach Yugiri history, culture, and all kinds of abilities needed for holding office and governing the world. Yugiri also displayed his genius in these areas. Genji deliberately did not let Yugiri's official rank rise too early. When the children in his uncle's household all wore red robes, he still wore the green robe of the sixth rank, and he could only exchange letters secretly with Kumoi no Kari.

Six years passed, and Yugiri grew into an adult. Whether in learning, etiquette, or appearance, he was far superior to others of his age. He refused many marriage proposals, but at a festival he developed a strong liking for Koremitsu's daughter, the beautiful dancer Fuji no Naishi, and they exchanged letters. On a day of the north wind, he happened by chance to witness Murasaki's peerless beauty and praised her endlessly, but even so he still could not forget his feelings for Kumoi no Kari.

After enduring all kinds of hardships, at a time when he was almost in despair, Yugiri finally gained his uncle's acknowledgment. At the wisteria flower banquet, amid everyone's blessings, he married Kumoi no Kari as his wife. Afterward, Yugiri and Kumoi no Kari organized and repaired the house of his late grandmother and settled there, living a calm and happy life.

Kumoi no Kari was lovely in appearance and very straightforward and sincere in character. After marriage she and Yugiri had eight children, and she was busy taking care of the children every day. Fuji no Naishi, who became Yugiri's concubine, was always busy with work in the imperial palace, but she also had six children with Yugiri. Genji often laughed and sighed that he himself had very few children, yet his grandchildren were so numerous.

Later, Yugiri's good friend Kashiwagi died of illness. Entrusted by Kashiwagi on his deathbed, Yugiri took care of his wife, the Second Princess. However, Yugiri suddenly fell in love with this ill-fated and delicate princess, which made the straightforward Kumoi no Kari very surprised and pained. After Yugiri insisted on marrying Kashiwagi's widow, the Fallen Leaf Princess, as his second wife, Kumoi no Kari took the children back to her family home to show her displeasure. Facing the complaints of Yugiri, who came to bring her back, she loudly said that she could no longer change her temperament to please him.

Although the two, who had become husband and wife after a pure first love, encountered this kind of disagreement, in fact they still could not do without each other. Yugiri described Kumoi no Kari as frightening as a demon when angry. Her sharpness and willfulness often left Yugiri helpless, but her cheerfulness and sincerity also made Yugiri truly love her. Yugiri said, I will not leave her.

Yugiri's appearance closely resembled that of his father Hikaru Genji, handsome and refined, and his talents were also outstanding. The difference was that his character was rather serious, and he also treated love very seriously, never as flirtatious and lustful as Genji. The love between Yugiri and Kumoi no Kari had a fairy-tale beginning, and after being tempered by worldly trials it became ordinary, but Yugiri and Kumoi no Kari were still the happiest couple in The Tale of Genji.
