Yuelu Mountain is one of the 72 peaks of Nanyue, because it is located at the foot of the northern foot of Hengshan Mountain, the terrain is the lowest, so it is called "for the foot".

Continue to trace the water upstream, and you will arrive at Zhuzhou.

The fleet here turned from Xiangshui to Lushui, and traced back to Liling, where the Mausoleum of Emperor Yan was near on the left.

Pharmacist Li ordered Zhang Bao to lead the fleet to anchor in Liling, and he drove to the Mausoleum of Emperor Yan.

It turned out that Li Daliang sent a message that the emperor took him as the assassin of Anzhou and toured south with Pharmacist Li.

He was informed by Zhang Shan'an that he intended to return to Tang and asked to meet with Pharmacist Li first.

Zhang Shan'an, a native of Yanzhou, started an incident in Huainan in the last years of the great cause.

After he captured Lujiang County, he went to Yuzhang to attach himself to Lin Shihong.

Lin Shihong did not trust him and did not allow him to enter the city, only allowing him to camp in Nantang.

Zhang Shan'an was dissatisfied, attacked Lin Shihong, and burned the city wall of Yuzhang.

Taking advantage of the battle between the two sides, Xiao Mo attacked Yuzhang and obtained the area north as far as Jiujiang.

Lin Shihong, a native of Raozhou, started at the end of the great cause and captured Yuzhang County.

He defeated the Sui army at Poyang Lake, captured Nankang, and proclaimed himself Emperor of Chu.

At that time, as far north as Jiujiang and south as Panyu, they were all owned by him.

Later, he was defeated by Xiao Milling and retired to Nanjun, leaving only Yuzhang, Nankang, Xunzhou, Chaozhou and other places.

After Li Xiaogong and Li Yaoshi Pingping Xiao Milling, there were quite a few people from Xiao Liang who took refuge in Lin Shihong.

He was able to regain his momentum, including tens of thousands of people, and his territory spanned the north and south of the Five Mountains.

At this time, Pharmacist Li toured south, and Zhang Shan'an had a gap with Lin Shihong, if he could return to Tang, it would be of great use to "comfort" Lin Shihong, so Pharmacist Li agreed to meet.

When he came to the Mausoleum of Emperor Yan, Zhang Shan'an expressed his willingness to support the Tang army, but there were conditions: after returning to the Tang Dynasty, he would be awarded the position of governor.

Zhang Shan'an's troops are small, and his territory is narrow, so he is quite reluctant to be a assassin.

His request exceeded the authority of the system to be conferred, and Pharmacist Li had to ask Li Xiaogong for instructions.

In later generations, there was "Jingxing Temple" in Liling, which was built by Li Jing according to legend; There is also "Li Wei Gong Ancestral Hall", which was built for the local people to thank Li Jingzhi Deze.

Leaving Liling, the fleet turned back to Xiangshui and continued to trace the river, and the area on the right hand was already full of Nanyue Mountain.

On this day, I came to Hengzhou, which is today's Hengyang.

"Nanyue Ji" said "Hui Yan is the head", Hui Yan Peak is in Hengzhou, it is rumored that "the north goose flies south, so far the wings stop back" and get the name.

There is also Yunmi Peak, also one of the seventy-two peaks of Nanyue, commonly known as the "Monument of Yuwang" is here.

"Nanyue Ji" recorded: "Yunmi Peak has Yu water control tablet, all tadpole writing. There is a stone altar under the stele, and the flowing water lingers on it, and it is the most victorious. ”

Although there are many scenic spots in the local area, Pharmacist Li has no time to look at them one by one.

Leave Hengzhou and continue to trace the Xiangshui River, that is, to Yongzhou, where the Xiaoshui River flows into the Xiangshui.

Mo said that at that time, it was the Middle Tang Dynasty and the Two Song Dynasty, and the land of Yongzhou was still "a raccoon dog in the grass, and ten times a night were shocked and injured", which belonged to the remote border.

Therefore, the ministers who were convicted, such as Kou Zhun, Fan Chunren, Cai Jing and other Zaifu, Liu Zongyuan, Su Shi, Su Zhe and other literary heroes, were all demoted to Yongzhou.

Liu Zongyuan's "Eight Records of Yongzhou" is a landscape travelogue when he lived in Yongzhou, but these eight beautiful Hongwen achievements were not read by Pharmacist Li two hundred years later.

On this day, Li Daliang rushed to Yongzhou, caught up with the fleet, and came to see Pharmacist Li.

He understood the good intentions of Pharmacist Li to transfer him to assist in the southern tour, and thanked each other wholeheartedly, and enjoyed each other.

The next day, the fleet turned into Xiaoshui and went upstream.

Because Li Daliang commanded the foot riders, Pharmacist Li left Xue Guwu by his side.

The east of Xiaoshui is the Nine Doubts Mountain, but the mountains are green and green, clear and beautiful, so unbelievable! Li Yaoshi and Lu Zesheng traveled to the view, and on the other hand, they cited Guo Pu's "Classic of Mountains and Seas", Li Daoyuan's "Notes on the Book of Water" and other classics to talk, and it was "Luo Yan's nine moves, each leading a stream", and "Xiu's negative resistance, different ridges and the same trend", and "the traveler is suspicious, so it is said that there are nine doubts"... Xue Guwu listened impatiently and went to find the white falcon, but the jade claw didn't pay much attention to him.

When he was bored, he heard the words "Dongting Mountain, the second daughter of the emperor lives in it", "Da Shun's Zhi Fang Ye, the second concubine is from the expedition", Xue Guwu couldn't help asking: "'The emperor's second daughter', 'the second concubine', but the second daughter of Emperor Yao and the second concubine of Emperor Shun?" ”

Pharmacist Li nodded and said, "Exactly." Emperor Shun Zhinan patrolled hunting, collapsed in the wilderness, and was buried in the south of the Yangtze River, which was a Lingling. ”

Xue Guwu was not very interested in the wilderness of Cangwu and the Nine Doubts Lingling, and only asked: "I heard that the second concubine was crying, and her tears were sprinkled on the bamboo to become spotted bamboo, but it is here?" ”

Pharmacist Li nodded and smiled: "Shishu has been passed down from generation to generation, and there is indeed such a saying. ”

Xue Gu Wu Xi said: "We can take some spotted bamboos on the return trip and bring them to Mrs. ”

Out of the dust treats him like a son, and he always thinks of this kind elder.

Lu Zesheng smiled and said, "It's warm!" ”

Xue Gu Wu glanced at Lu Zesheng, and Pharmacist Li looked at Lu Zesheng.

***************

Pharmacist Li led the fleet from Xiangshui to Xiaoshui, tracing the water upward, and soon reached the southern boundary of the Jingzhou Governor's Office.

From this further southwest, it enters the Jiaozhou Governor's Mansion; If you go further southeast, you will enter the Guangzhou Governor's Office.

Since the Qin Dynasty was included in the Chinese territory, this area has been successively subordinated to Jiaozhou, Guangzhou and Jingzhou.

Mo said that at that time, it was modern, and it was still a place where ethnic minorities lived.

Pharmacist Li had already had the experience of communicating with the brute fang, so he climbed the Nine Doubts Mountain with the local natives.

But seeing the giant trees verdant, the forest and the sea are reckless, and there are dense stone fir and fragrant fir trees all over the eyes, and of course, there are more rampant bamboos.

"Da Shun is in its yang, Shang is buried in its yin", the tomb of Emperor Shun is called Lingling, and its temple is in the south of Jiuyi Mountain.

Accompanied by Lu Zesheng, Xue Guwu and others, Pharmacist Li crossed the dense forest and came to Shanyang to pay homage to Shun Temple.

Then walk to the edge of the cliff and look at the southern country in the distance.

He leaned on the Nine Doubts Mountain with his back, and the East River was at his feet.

Across the river and Mengzhu Ridge, the other side is already one of the "five ridges", and the land belongs to Lingnan.

The topography of this area is not only located at the boundary of Jing, Jiao and Guangzhou, but also the confluence of the East River and the West River, which serves as a transportation hub regardless of land and water.

Pharmacist Li built a new county here, which was Jianghua County.

Most of the natives still made a living by fishing, hunting and gathering, so he adapted to the weather and landforms, taught farming and animal husbandry techniques, and led the aborigines into an agricultural society.

Later generations thanked him for his grace of soothing the people and educating them, and many places built Li Wang Temple and Li Wei Gong Ancestral Hall.

During his stay at the Nine Doubts Mountain, Lu Zesheng noticed a treasure: the inscription of Cai Yong's "Nine Doubts Mountain Inscriptions" in the Han Dynasty.

After the southern tour, Pharmacist Li brought it back to the court, and Ouyang Xun, Linghu Dedi and others included this post when they edited "Art and Literature Gathering".

However, the inscription and stele extension of the year have long been gone, and the Yuguanyan "Nine Doubts Mountain Inscription" tablet seen today is erected when the Southern Song Dynasty repaired the Shun Temple.

Let's talk about the time.

Pharmacist Li and his entourage returned to Yongzhou along Xiaoshui, and continued to trace the Xiangshui southward to Guizhou, which is today's Guilin.

Guizhou is the "gateway to Lingnan", and the source of Xiangshui is here.
