With the arrival and settlement of the powerful people in the capital, the garden villa area of ​​Nanwan Lake, which was originally a little deserted, became lively immediately. Although it was inevitable to be in a hurry, its popularity suddenly became rich.

In other words, the nobles have servants to accompany them to serve, otherwise just resettlement and reception would cause Shenzhou to collapse. There are not enough service personnel in Shenzhou, not just short of people, but lack of sufficient "business qualities".

The garden courtyards built in Shenzhou are all single-family houses, built on the lakeside, and decorated for more than ten miles. Although they are not as colorful as the lake and mountains during the day, the dense lights and colorful colors at night are still dazzling. In a house in the small bamboo garden in the Bay Point of Northeast, this is the residence of Ping'an Hou Li Yu.

Among the drivers who accompanied the Southern Tour during this southern tour, there were some people with "special identities", namely the separatist regimes swept away in the Qianyou era. The world has changed. Over the past few decades, the former kingly foundation has long disappeared, and those emperors and kings have basically disappeared in the memories of the Han officials and people.

The old emperor brought Li Yu, Meng Chang, and Liu Qing with them, obviously not because he was afraid of them. The greater possibility was that he was just a simple mentality of showing off his power.

Speaking of these surrenders, in the years since they entered the Han Dynasty, as long as they can relax their mindset, their lives will never be difficult and they can even live a very prosperous life. Over the past thirty years, the separatist monarchs in the south have basically achieved a good ending, such as Gao Baorong, Qian Hongchu, and Chen Hongjin.

There is a step further. He has a place in the political arena of the Han army and even holds important positions. For example, the former crown prince of Later Shu Meng Xuanzhe and Zhou Baoquan, who have now become the deputy envoy of the Southern Road of Yanshan, has been completely integrated into the Han Dynasty.

Of course, when it comes to fame, it must belong to Li Yu. The widely circulated poems almost spread his fame to the entire Han Dynasty. This influence was much greater than his original identity as the "King of Jiangnan".

Many people can't imagine that the gentle, delicate and sentimental talent in the poem is now just a big-bellied old man.

The courtyard is close to the water, and the courtyard is only the only pavilion. Fortunately, it is located high enough to enjoy the night view. Li Yu is still the same as before, with a pot of wine and a pen, life can be "exciting".

In the pavilion, Li Yu stood silently with his belly, holding a wine pot in his hand. Although the small courtyard where Li Yu was located was remote, it was quiet enough. The night wind brought the coolness of the lake, and the active movement of fish and shrimps could be felt. In the northeast, the bells of Xianyin Temple came slowly, so I felt it myself, everything was so comfortable and beautiful.

However, at this moment, Li Yu's expression was unprecedentedly concentrating, regressing from his casualness in his daily life. For nearly thirty years, Li Yu has not been so serious.

In the past thirty years, as the surrendered ruler, Li Yu's freedom has not been restricted by much, and he has even been relaxed. However, Li Yu is still "aware" and always stays in the capital with a peaceful mind, never willing to step beyond the line. He is wherever the court is, and he is in the capital.

Therefore, this southern tour was the farthest time that Li Yu went out in thirty years, and it was also the closest to the south and the closest to the "homeland".

After passing Shenzhou, Guangzhou is east and Qizhou is south. These were all territory of the fourteen prefectures in Jiangbei that were once occupied by the Southern Tang Dynasty and were seized by the great man.

For a "Southern Tang man", especially the former ruler of the Southern Tang Dynasty, when it comes to the fourteen prefectures in Jiangbei, it is indescribable to feel pain in my heart. After all, the Battle of Huainan was the beginning of the decline and demise of the Southern Tang Dynasty, and it was also a symbol of the complete rise of the Northern Han court.

Looking back, it is definitely not an exaggeration to use the historical significance of the Battle of Huainan. Just through the war itself, the Han Dynasty, which was so poor at that time, squeezed a large amount of wealth and resources from the Southern Tang Dynasty. For a long time, the two Huainan prefectures and counties provided 20% or even more taxes from the court.

It is naturally no longer the same as before. The two Huaihei areas have constant disasters, but it is still the Daosi administrative region that is ranked first in the Han Dynasty. The Huai salt alone is a huge profit in the world, providing the court with a large amount of fiscal and taxation, which can be guaranteed for drought and flood. The value of Huainan, especially the Huaidong area, to the court can be imagined.

Of course, Li Yu was not completely out of his hometown feelings at this time, but he was somewhat "near-facing and timid" emotions at work. After all, he had never breathed the air of the southern country for thirty years, and those long-standing memories that were sealed suddenly emerged, which was a bit unstoppable.

Unlike Liu Feng's heartlessness and joylessness, Li Yu is a talented man with rich emotions and always has more and more delicate ideas. At this time, he rarely thought about his experiences along the way. His face, which had long been decoupled from Junxiu, even showed a mocking expression, and the corners of his mouth seemed to be raising but not raising.

Li Yu was heartbroken about the fall of the Southern Tang Dynasty and learned from the pain. After years of reflection, he truly came up with an answer that he could accept himself. He blamed the great man for being strong and domineering, and took over the Li family's foundation, and hated himself for being weak and incompetent, and did not even have the courage to die for his country.

Li Yu is really not a material when doing politics, and even reflection can only stay on the surface. However, he still woke up some shallow things.

At least, I feel ashamed of the desire for pleasure and not caring about the people's livelihood of the father and son back then. Those romantic days that used to be still hurting his nerves.

The target of his mocking at this time was naturally the old emperor who was above and destroyed his country. Li Yu had never hated the old emperor too deeply, or dared not hate him, after all, he still wanted to live a life of silence.

During the ten years when the Kaibao period was most prosperous, Li Yu, who was used to living in the capital, even developed a deep awe and admiration for the old emperor, which was somewhat of a Stockholm disease.

However, in recent years, this kind of relationship has gradually changed. Although it cannot be exposed to some confidential affairs of the upper class of the Han Dynasty, even as a civilian, combined with his vision of the "Master of a Country" back then, he can see some problems.

Not to mention the major policies of the court, the conquest and destruction of the country, nor the people's livelihood, suffering and worries about the common people, let's talk about personal enjoyment and wonders of scenery. Li Yu has some experience in these aspects.

Of course, due to the short reign and the country's power was in a turbulent state for a long time, Li Yu, as the king of the country, did not enjoy much, at least not enough time. But with his father Li Jing, he had fully experienced the glory and luxury of the palaces in the southern country, which were the causes of the destruction of the country.

Until now, when he moved into this small bamboo garden and was by the shore of Nanwan Lake, Li Yu suddenly realized that the actions of the old emperor today are no less than the enjoyment of his father and son in Jinling.

However, the old emperor was not addicted to women, did not like singing, dancing, or poetry. However, once he did it, he could do something big, which was a waste of money and money. It was also common for the old emperor to hold banquets and parties.

In terms of pomp, the father and son are far inferior, which is normal. Once the Xiao Wang is divided, how can he compare with the unified Chinese emperor? The team of more than 20,000 people, the powerful gathered, the servants and the shadows of the servants, and the guards of tens of thousands of elite soldiers. Such a scene can be evaluated by extravagance.

As for Taikang Palace, although it has not been witnessed yet, from the past rumors and the experience along the way, it is enough to imagine what a luxurious and magnificent palace wonder it was.

They took 20,000 followers and walked more than 700 miles in a month to travel south to escape the summer heat. The father and son never did such a thing.

After this comparison, Li Yu's eyes were red, which was exciting. After thirty years, he finally realized that the old emperor was not so sacred or so wise. He would also be old, and he would also be foolish when he was old. He looked very selfish and selfish, and he was more arrogant and extravagant than their arrogant and extravagant nature.

It's a bit funny to say that Li Yu actually felt that he had attained enlightenment. He felt that the world was clear and the world was clear, and the world was sober, and his mind was infinitely open.

As soon as he got up, Li Yu couldn't help laughing at the lakeside outside the pavilion. While laughing, he poured wine into his mouth and said "happy". This was not surprising to the servant who was accompanying him, but he just said that his master was ill, or he was very honored, or he was very excited.

The servants really guessed a little. At least Li Yu's poetic interest was coming up at this moment, and the words in his mind were arranged automatically, combining them into beautiful words. However, while he was excited, he probably still maintained a hint of soberness, which suppressed the urge to sing in the lake.

After all, the words and sentences in Li Yu's mind are all taboo things, which are more straightforward than the song "Yu Meiren" back then, and their emotions are even more inflatable.

It's hard to say, Li Yu suddenly dropped the wine pot, the broken sound was a little awake, and he rubbed his hands as if his hands were itchy, and Li Yu even curled his smile.

Silently reminding myself to be careful and not be careless. I should not even have a smile, at least I cannot smile like this. Thinking of this, Li Yu's expression gradually became serious and his eyes became calm again, but the quickness in his heart could not fade away in a moment.

In just a moment, Li Yu felt at a loss, either sitting or standing, his hands were trembling with itchyness, his mouth was dry, and his tongue was dry.

"Come here, serve me a drink!" Li Yu couldn't help but laughed again, and ordered the servants outside: "Drink all night tonight!"

Only Du Kang can relieve worries; only Du Kang can help you liven up.

Li Yu's problem of alcoholism has been developed for a long time. It can be said that he is not happy without drinking. If he doesn't drink a few taels a day, he will feel extremely uncomfortable. This time, his wife can not bring her, but she has only three followers, and her clothes are not too soft, but she has brought a car with her drink.

Tonight, I have to drink good wine. It was the imperial wine that Wu Gong Liu Hui once gave him. Li Yu just drank it one cup after another, and his happy laughter echoed in the pavilion from time to time until people were gone.
