"Don't rush to climb the mountain first, let's take a walk down there first, and then climb the mountain. Ye Xiaoyao looked at the eager little guy with some helplessness.

"Oh, okay then, is this the Huaqing Palace?" said the little guy.

"Of course, this is Huaqing Palace, the palace where Yang Guifei lived back then. Ye Xiaoyao smiled slightly, "Du Mu's "Passing the Huaqing Palace" was also written here!"

""Passing through the Huaqing Palace"?" The little guy looked at Ye Xiaoyao with some curiosity.

"You may not have heard the name of this poem, but there is a famous sentence through the ages: When a concubine laughs on a red dust, no one knows that it is a lychee!" Ye Xiaoyao said.

"Baba, was the lychee so rare back then?" the little guy pouted, a puzzled expression.

Although lychees are delicious, they can be seen everywhere if they are in season.

"Of course, back then, that is, during the reign of Tang Xuanzong, Gao Lishi, whose ancestral home is Gaoliang, which is now Maoming City, Guangdong Province, as Tang Xuanzong's internal servant, he knew that there was a fruit called lychee in his hometown, in order to please Yang Guifei, Gao Lishi sent a special envoy to pick lychees from Gaoliang Dayuanling and present them to Yang Guifei. Ye Xiaoyao said.

"Guangdong, so far away!" the little guy thought as he tilted his head.

"Yes, it is far away, and it is difficult to keep the fruit of lychee, so it is used to keep it fresh with a fresh bamboo tube, and the government ordered the post station to be sent to the palace with an expedited horsewhip of 800 miles, Yang Guifei was overjoyed to see the bright red lychee, and smiled and bowed, and later people called this kind of lychee a concubine laughing lychee. Ye Xiaoyao said.

"Wow! That's how the concubine laughed!" the little guy seemed to have discovered a new world.

Well, the reason why Du Mu wrote like this is not only to witness the fact that Gao Lishi gave his hometown white sugar poppy lychee to Yang Guifei, but also criticized the corruption of the powerful people of the dynasty. Ye Xiaoyao continued.

"Oh, I see!" the little one nodded as if he didn't understand.

In the last years of Xuanzong, the corruption of the favored "Yang family" caused national anger, and when the dynasty was in crisis, Gao Lishi persuaded Emperor Xuanzong to order Lingnan to stop paying tribute to lychees, and suggested that the emperor give Concubine Yang death to calm the people's anger. Since then, no one dares to call the lychee a concubine laughing lychee. Ye Xiaoyao said.

"In that case, the concubine smile we eat now is the concubine laugh at that time?" asked the little guy suspiciously.

"Of course it is, but no one dared to call it that then, and now it does, after all, it's still that kind of thing. Ye Xiaoyao smiled and touched the little guy's head.

"Oh, it seems to be!" the little one nodded.

"Do you want to go and see the emperor at that time, and the place where Yang Guifei took a bath?" Ye Xiaoyao said.

"Where to take a bath?" asked the little one, confused.

"Hahaha, if you say so, it's okay, it's a private bathhouse, the people only dare to clean up, they don't dare to take a bath here!" Ye Xiaoyao couldn't help but laugh when he heard the little guy's words.

"Look here, the name is called Xingchen Pool, that year, Tang Taizong Li Shimin ordered the master craftsman Yan Lide to transform the previous soup pool, given the name "Imperial Soup", for Tang Taizong to use for bathing, after Tang Xuanzong because the shape of the "Imperial Soup" resembles the Big Dipper in the sky, so it was renamed "Xingchen Soup", in order to bless the Li Dynasty to perpetuate the throne and spread for generations. Before coming to the Xingchen Soup Pool, Ye Xiaoyao opened his mouth to introduce the little guy.

"Huh?" the little guy asked curiously, "Tang Taizong also came here to take a bath?"

"Of course, this Huaqing Pool is where Tang Taizong first bathed. Ye Xiaoyao nodded.

"I thought there were only Tang Xuanzong and Yang Guifei!" the little guy scratched his head.

"Hehe, Tang Xuanzong and Yang Guifei's pool is in front. Ye Xiaoyao pointed to the front and said, "Lotus Pond, Tang Xuanzong's Pool, Begonia Pond, Yang Guifei's Pool, also known as Guifei Pond." ”

"And what pool is there?" asked the little one again.

"There is also the prince's soup pool, which is where the prince bathes. Ye Xiaoyao said, "And the last one is Shangshi Soup, which is the place where the officials who serve the Hot Spring Palace bathe. ”

"It's complicated, it's so troublesome to take a shower!" the little guy pouted, and said with some disdain.

"Hehe, of course, the ancients were very troublesome. Ye Xiaoyao smiled.

"Baba, we won't go to the rest of the pools, let's go climbing!" the little guy pouted, "These pools are really not interesting." ”

"Okay, the story has been told to you, if you don't want to see it, let's climb the mountain, there are many attractions on the way to the mountain, Xiao Wu, you don't just care about mountaineering!" Ye Xiaoyao reminded.

"Really?" the little guy tilted his head and looked at Ye Xiaoyao, obviously not believing Ye Xiaoyao's words.

"Naturally, it's true, can Dad still lie to you?" Ye Xiaoyao said helplessly, is his reputation so bad?

"Oh well. As he spoke, the little guy looked at Lishan.

"Huh?" the little one seemed to notice something.

"What's wrong?" Zhao Ying asked with some confusion, and at the same time, she also looked in the direction that the little guy's eyes were looking at.

"Baba, hemp, mountain...... Something isn't right. The little one pointed in the direction she was looking.

"Don't pay attention to her, this little girl is her own person. Ye Xiaoyao smiled slightly.

"Little girl?" The little guy and Zhao Ying looked at Ye Xiaoyao suspiciously at the same time.

"That's right, this is Lishan's old mother, which is also known as Nuwa!" Ye Xiaoyao said.

"Is that the Nuwa who made people and mend the sky?" asked the little guy in surprise.

"Yes, that's her. Ye Xiaoyao nodded.

At this moment, the little guy's eyes were different: "Baba, if you say that, do you know Nuwa?"

"Of course, she is still good friends with your mother Miao'er!" Ye Xiaoyao nodded.

"And is she pretty?" asked the little one again.

"Of course, it's only a little worse than your mother. Ye Xiaoyao nodded.

"Then Baba, you're going to take me to meet Nuwa in a moment!" said the little one.

"Yes, but let's get to the top of the mountain first, this is not a good place to meet now!" Ye Xiaoyao looked around, there were people on the left, left and right, so he shook his head.

"Well, let's climb the mountain now!" the little guy nodded, and began to look forward to Nuwa's appearance in his heart.

Zhao Ying also smiled slightly, the curiosity in her heart about Nuwa was no worse than that of the little guy! She also wanted to see what this Nuwa looked like.
