Yan Shanxue's reaction and answer received bursts of applause from everyone, and Liu Chan was also amazed.

"From Sister Xue'er's point of view, how is the yin and yang of Luoyang?" Liu Chan asked again.

Yan Shanxue said with a smile: "There is a difference between yin and yang in the north and south, but everything cannot be generalized, and there are special cases, it can be said that you have me, I have you." For example, Xiang Yu, the overlord of Western Chu, although he was born in the south and grew up in the south, he is brave and good at fighting, and the generals of the north are not other opponents. And there are many people in the north who are cowardly, weak, greedy for life and afraid of death. ”

Liu Chan smiled: "It makes sense. ”

"The cities of the north and the west, lack of water and mountains, are rigid and upright, and the sun is prosperous and the yin is declining. And Luoyang is one of the outliers, between Lihe and Luo, not only the majestic atmosphere of the Central Plains, but also the charming and charming quality of the southern water town. After the opening of the world, since the three emperors and five emperors, Luoyang has become the envy of heaven and man with its great beauty of heaven and earth. According to the mountain in the north, look at Yique in the south, Luoshui runs through it, according to the Tiger Prison Pass in the east, control Hanguguan in the west, surrounded by mountains, stand in a forest of Xiongguan, dominate the world, press Jianghuai in the east, Guanlong in the west, pass Youyan in the north, Jingxiang in the south, known as the eight-sided convergence, the hinterland of Kyushu, and the thoroughfare of ten provinces. It is a place where the princes of all dynasties compete for the emperors of the Central Plains, and its situation is the most important in the world. Yan Shanxue was calm and talked eloquently.

Zhao Yun and Xu Shu appreciated it and nodded frequently.

"Yan'er's skills have been passed down by the master, and they are becoming more and more exquisite, and there are successors to my Mo family!" Xu Shu's face was full of relief, and he sighed.

Liu Chan and his entourage went all the way to the west, more than ten days later, over the majestic and beautiful Qinling Mountains, a majestic and magnificent historical ancient city came into Liu Chan's eyes, standing on the horizon in the distance, a strong sense of historical vicissitudes came to the face.

There is wind and rain drifting, the whole Chang'an City is shrouded in hazy mist, surrounding Chang'an City, the smoke and rain on the Wei River like a jade belt, the willows are still around, the white sails are dotted, the fishermen are fishing, the wood sings early, and it is peaceful and quiet.

"The rain on the Xianyang Bridge is like hanging, and there are 10,000 points of empty fishing boats. It is still like the spring water color of Dongting, and Xiaoyun will enter Yueyang sky. Liu Chan touched the scene and sang affectionately, and there were bursts of cheers.

"The capital of the Huanghuang Emperor is Chang'an, and the eight rivers flow around the city for thousands of years. The land of abundance, which is thousands of miles away from Jincheng and fertile wilderness, has written a brilliant chapter of our Chinese civilization, and the rich water and soil have given birth to this glorious imperial capital. Liu Chan continued.

"What Dou'er said is extremely true! Eight rivers surround the city, and the city is prosperous because of water. The water source of Guanzhong Basin is very abundant, the rivers are dense, there are eight rivers around it, there are eight rivers of Chanshui, Bashui, Liushui, Zhushui, Fengshui, Waterlogging, Jingshui, and Weishui, which is the so-called 'eight rivers around Chang'an'. The terrain here is flat, the soil is fertile, the agriculture and irrigation are unique, the earth is excellent, and the products are abundant, so it has been favored by the kings of the past dynasties. Looking at the magnificent Chang'an City, Xu Shu was deeply touched.

"Master, I heard that the literary master Sima Xiangru has great respect for the beautiful scenery of 'Eight Waters Around Chang'an'?!" Yanshan snow fluttered and sparkled with beautiful big eyes.

The starry eyes were looking forward to it, and Liu Chan, who was so flashing that he couldn't help but sway, couldn't hold it, and looked at Yan Shanxue blankly, a little stupid.

Liu Chan's infatuated nature unfortunately attracted a burst of laughter from Shamoke and Abrupt Bone, as well as Yan Shanxue's ruthless contempt.

Xu Shu said: "Yes! Cher is really ice and snow smart. The beautiful scenery of eight rivers around Chang'an did originate from the description of Sima Xiangru, a great writer of the former Han Dynasty. In it, he wrote, all the time, in and out of Jingwei. The pickaxe is waterlogged, and the surplus is a snake, and the business is within it. The eight rivers are diverted, and they are different from each other. East, west, north and south, galloping back and forth. It means that Ba and Chan Ershui never go out of Shanglin Yuan; Jing and Wei water flow in from outside the garden and flow out from the garden; Feng, pickaxe, waterlogging, and waterlogging twists and turns, circling in the garden. ”

"Eight rivers surround the city, and the city prospers because of water. It has created this brilliant imperial capital Chang'an! Gaozu set the capital of Chang'an, creating the prosperity of the former Han Dynasty for 400 years. Through the vast smoke of history, Liu Chan clearly appreciated the majestic strategy of Chang'an, the capital of the Han Dynasty, and admired and sighed.

Through Sima Xiangru's gorgeous rhetoric, the beautiful scene of eight rivers surrounding Chang'an seems to emerge. Liu Chan knew that the royal garden Shanglin Yuan described by Sima Xiangru was located in the southwest of Chang'an City in the Han Dynasty. Han Chang'an city south of the dragon head, north of Weishui, west of the water, east near Chan, Ba, the capital built here, on the one hand to solve the city's daily drinking water problem, on the other hand, the use of the Wei River transport function, communication of the Yellow River basin and even the important waterway in the south, Chang'an quickly became the national economic center.

Chang'an City, surrounded by eight rivers, has entered the golden age of the feudal empire. It opened up the Silk Road connecting Europe and Asia, and developed politically, economically, and culturally in an all-round way, and Chang'an has since been known as the "Roman of the East".

The curve of history always rushes from the trough to the crest again and again, and this rich land is once again clothed in glory and ushers in a prosperous and prosperous era. Chang'an, with its myriad weather, created the most glorious and magnificent three hundred years in Chinese history.

Emperor Wen of Sui in later generations ordered Yu Wenkai to build Daxing City in the southeast of Chang'an City in the Han Dynasty, where the west is bordered by Fengshui and the east is guarded by Chanba, and the water quality is fresh. In addition, Yu Wenkai also built three artificial canals to bring eight rivers into the city, turning the city into a "land and sea" connected by rivers and lakes.

Extensive water diversion projects and ditches and lakes throughout the city have created a humid and pleasant microclimate for Chang'an, with abundant surface water flow and tree conservation, raising the city's groundwater level, and many low-lying places often gushing out springs. The abundant water resources provided an inexhaustible source for Chang'an City, which had a population of more than one million at that time.

The city surrounded by water is as broad and inclusive as water!

Under the rule of the Tang Empire, the people had plenty of food and clothing, cattle and horses were everywhere, they did not close their doors at night, and they did not leave anything behind, and there was a thriving scene of peace. The politics is clear, the economy is developed, the military is strong, the four Yi are in service, all countries come to the dynasty, Chang'an City's reputation spreads overseas, and the Tang Empire has also become a world superpower.

On the water side, poetic dwelling. The lingering dream of man and water is close ahead.

"The palace of the king of Qin is full of mist and spring smoke, and the pearl trees and branches are close to the blue sky. The royal air is fragrant and the water spirit is suspended. Feiwei Luo Wei with the sleeves, like a shark chasing a treasure feast.

Since then, Xianyang has looked back, and the twilight clouds have been sad for a thousand years. ”

Liu Chan had a lot of thoughts, associates, imagined the future, and dreamed of dominating the world as soon as possible, introducing Bashui into the city in advance, building Chang'an into the Venice and Rome of the East, realizing the great rejuvenation of the Chinese nation, and restoring the endless glory of the Huanghuang Imperial Capital and the great glory of the Han Empire.
