"The enclaves of the ancient dragons, the hometown of a generation of emperors. The heavenly master is in his hometown, and the phoenix is auspicious. This passage is a good reputation for Feng County, and it is also a testimony to its history.

Fengxian, also known as Fengcheng, Gufeng, Fengyi, Qintai, belonged to the Song Dynasty in the Spring and Autumn Period, and was the capital of the Song Dynasty, with a long history and prosperous humanities.

Legend has it that in ancient times, a phoenix fell on a local plane tree, so it was named Fengcheng. When Liu Bang established the Han Dynasty and Zhang Daoling founded the Zhengtian Shidao, the reputation of Fengxian became legendary.

Feng County is located in the middle of Xuzhou and Yingtianfu, connecting Pei County in the east, Jinxiang in the north, Dangshan in the south, and Tongshan County in the west. It extends in all directions, and is the main road for traffic to and fro.

Although the geographical location of Feng County is important, there were not many wars in previous years, so the people here live and work in peace and contentment, live a stable life, and the local folk customs are simple and simple, and there is no dispute with the world, which makes people suspect that it is a paradise.

Bai Juyi once used the poem "Zhu Chen Village" to express his yearning for the folk customs of Feng County.

In Gufeng County, Xuzhou, there is a village called Zhu Chen. Go to the county for more than 100 miles, and the mulberry and hemp are full of green atmosphere.

The sound of the shuttle, the ox and the donkey walk. Women draw water from the stream, and men pick mountains for salary.

There are few officials in the county, and the mountains are deep and the people are pure. If you have money, you can't do business, and if you don't join the army.

Every family guards the village business, and their heads don't go out. Born as a citizen of the village, died as the dust of the village.

Tanaka old and young, meet He Xinxin. There are only two surnames in one village, and the world is marriage.

There are clans in relatives and distant families, and there are groups in few long tours. Yellow chicken and white wine, the party is not separated by ten years.

The living are not far apart, and they marry their neighbors first. The dead are buried not far away, and the graves are mostly around the village.

It is both life and death, and not bitter with God. Therefore, many longevity exams often see great-great-grandchildren.

I was born in a righteous township, young and lonely and poor. Apprentices learn to distinguish between right and wrong, and only take their own hard work.

The world is a noble name and a teacher, and the scholars are married. In this way, self-shackles are believed to be a great fallacy.

Ten years old to interpret the book, fifteen can belong to the text. Twenty are talents, and thirty are ministers.

There is a wife who is tired, and there is a gentleman's kindness. Inherit the family and the country, and look forward to this.

Recalling the beginning of yesterday's travel, this is the fifteenth spring. The lonely boat is suitable for Chu, and the horse passes through Qin four times.

There is hunger in the daytime, and there is no requiem in the night. Things don't stay temporarily, and they come and go like clouds.

Leaving the chaos and losing his hometown, the flesh and blood are scattered. Jiangnan and Jiangbei have their own relatives.

Farewell all day long, the deceased heard every other year. Lie down to dusk, cry and sit until morning.

The sorrow burns the heart, and the frost invades the sideburns. Life is so hard, envy the people in the village.

……

Dongjia Manor is only five miles from the county seat, and it can be reached in less than half an hour on foot.

In Dongjiazhuang, Gao Feng and Li Qikun joined forces, not only successfully won the manor and land, but also resolved a contradiction, and even let Steward Liu make his own decisions, and the price was cheaper by one hundred taels of silver, which was a bumper harvest.

At the strong request of Steward Liu, Gao Feng and Li Qikun had lunch at the manor, and agreed to complete the transfer agreement and payment within three days, and the two of them headed for the county seat.

Along the way, Li Qikun told Gao Feng a lot about the geography and customs of Feng County, and Gao Feng couldn't help but smack his tongue when he heard it, and he couldn't imagine that a small county town had so many historical allusions and cultural origins.

may really be as described in Bai Juyi's poem, "Every family guards the village business, and the head is white and does not go out", if it weren't for the introduction of that classmate, Gao Feng really didn't know much about Fengxian in his previous life.

The cycle of cause and effect of the world, I didn't expect that I had crossed into the hometown of my classmates, although he was thousands of years earlier, but there was still a sense of intimacy, not to mention that I had lived here for more than a month, and my body and mind had already been integrated into the local folk customs, and I was an authentic Fengxian person.

When the line is not long, a city outline in the distance comes into view, and it is Feng County.

From a distance, the county seat is not big, the length and width are only three or four hundred zhang, boxy, and it seems decent.

Nearby, a sense of history comes to you. "Fengyi" is the name used when the city was built, although it was renamed Fengxian after the Qin Dynasty, but the handwriting of the city gate has not been modified, perhaps it is used as a witness to history.

The city wall is not high, about two zhang; Although the walls are thick, they are still far from those famous cities. The entire city wall is slightly dilapidated, apparently peaceful for a long time, and has not been repaired much under the stability of people's minds.

The only thing that caught the attention of the peak was the moat. In the previous life, Gao Feng had heard from his classmates that it was excavated in the Warring States Period and was one of the most well-preserved square cities and rivers in China.

When I watched it closely, it was really well preserved. The river surface is more than three zhang wide, the river water is clear and bottom-up, and it is like a jade belt winding around the city, interlocking with each other, and it looks very beautiful.

Gao Feng had no intention of watching the scenery, and walked into the city with Li Qikun.

A small official guarding the city, who seems to know Li Qikun, the two sides nodded and then let him go, and there was no interception and verification, Gao Feng was dressed brightly, and in parallel with it, he also traveled unimpeded. It seems that the powerful, the noble, and the rich enjoy certain privileges in any era!

Entering the city, a straight avenue passes through the street, along both sides of the road, there are many houses, people come and go, and it is a lively scene.

The county town and the countryside are different. It was already mid-afternoon, and the countryside was about to go on strike, and even the small stalls and vendors had begun to pack up their goods and prepare to go home, but at this time, the crowd in the county town was still surging, and there was no sign of desertion.

All kinds of sales are ongoing, shouting, bargaining constantly, people come and go, or hurrying, or stop to watch, and so on, from this corner can be seen to what extent the economic prosperity of the Great Song Dynasty has reached, this is just a small county town, I really don't know what the scenery will be like Bianliang in Tokyo and Yingtianfu in Nanjing.

The predecessor had never been to the county seat because of his poor family, even if he had the memories of his previous life and had seen some metropolises, Gao Feng was deeply attracted by the scene here.

Reading thousands of books, it is better to travel thousands of miles, many things are more direct than imagination, aside from some hidden dark sides and historical complexes, this kind of scene is the life that Gao Feng wants most.

People are comfortable and simple, and the most common thing in life is plain. "Both life and death, not bitter form and god", there is no more trouble without lofty pursuit, even occasional unhappiness can not change the main color of life.

The county lord summoned him in the evening, and Gao Feng and Li Qikun had plenty of time, so they were not in a hurry, and they were enjoying the street scenery while exchanging experiences, which seemed very comfortable.

Along the way, one shop after another flashed in front of my eyes. There are cloth shops, grain stores, jewelry stores, grocery stores, and four treasure shops, etc., and the store is full of items, which is dazzling and overwhelming.

However, no matter how many items there are, Gao Feng and Li Qikun have no desire to enter the store, and they are not women, they don't have the talent to go shopping, just glance at them from the side of the road, and there is no need to go in and take a closer look.

Further ahead, there is a large garden area in front of the right, surrounded by high walls and high railings, and halls and pavilions looming. Li Qikun said that this is the "Fengming Garden", legend has it that the phoenix fell here, and the Mid-Autumn Festival moon viewing activities in the evening were also arranged here.

Walking close to the entrance of the park, I saw a boulder on the left side of the door with three big characters of "Fengming Garden" written on it.

Because the event was still early, the park had not yet opened, and Gao Feng and Li Qikun had no idea of entering, and the two of them passed through the door directly.
