Chapter 259 Summation
Southern Chu called this victory the Great Victory of the First Year of Mingguang.
The first year of Mingguang was the reign of Emperor Ming of Chu, Zhao De.
The armistice negotiations between Southern Chu and Northern Jin are imminent, and the people of Southern Chu can't wait to start a three-day carnival.
Emperor Ming of Chu initially felt helpless when he received the unanimous request of the people of Southern Chu for a fireworks display. However, as he loved his people the most and always responded to requests, he reluctantly agreed.
After their brilliant display, the fireworks fade into obscurity.
Zhu Huaizhen watched one show and lost interest.
She still felt that her "Peach Blossom Fan" was much better.
Orioles chirp at dawn in the jade trees of Jinling, flowers bloom early in the Qinhuai waterside pavilions. Who knew the ice would melt so easily? I watched him build his red mansion, I watched him entertain guests, and I watched his mansion collapse. Here, amidst the mossy, blue tiles, I once slept in a dreamlike state; I've witnessed fifty years of rise and fall. No one in Wuyi Lane is surnamed Wang, ghosts cry at Mochou Lake, and owls roost on Phoenix Terrace. Dreams of the ruined mountains are the most real, the old land hard to lose. I don't believe this map is changing manuscripts. I'll compose a lament for Jiangnan, and sing it until I grow old.
So, Zhu Huaizhen stayed in Haiyue Cottage for three days and was too lazy to go out.
She was afraid that she would not be able to help but speak and disturb the interest of the people from Nan Chu.
The sun and moon hang in the sky at dawn and dusk, and spirits wield the power of life and death. Heaven and earth, supposed to distinguish between the clear and the turbid, yet how could they have confused Dao Zhi and Yan Yuan? Those who do good suffer poverty and a shorter life, while those who commit evil enjoy wealth and longevity. Heaven and earth, seemingly coveting the strong and bullying the weak, yet they also seem to go along with the tide. Earth, if you can't distinguish between good and evil, what are you called Earth? Heaven, you misjudge the wise and the foolish, unworthy of being Heaven! Alas, all I can do is shed tears.
Ahem, this “The Injustice of Dou E” sounds pretty good too.
"Your Highness, Nanchu actually asked for peace." Tu Mi put away her oil-paper umbrella and shook off the wetness on her body.
Ever since the great victory in the first year of Mingguang, the weather in Jiangcheng has been overcast and rainy, which is very annoying.
After hearing this, Zhu Huaizhen said "oh" and continued to enjoy her Buddha Jumps Over the Wall.
Sugar-heart abalone, pineapple sea cucumber, white shark lips, young deer tendons, claw meat, golden shark fin, ivory clam meat, spider fish glue, quail eggs, ham, pork ribs, clean winter bamboo shoots, king oyster mushrooms, chrysanthemum mushrooms, wild pine mushrooms, morels, snow bamboo fungus, Shaoxing wine, eighteen ingredients, eighteen delicious flavors. The moment you lift the lotus leaf covering the jar, the rich meaty aroma is so fragrant that even a Buddha would jump over the wall.
"Your Highness, have you known this a long time ago?" Tu Mi couldn't help but frown.
"Although Southern Chu won, it still lost. Southern Chu used 300,000 soldiers and horses to pry open the remnants of Northern Jin. Northern Jin never thought of taking any real action from the beginning to the end, it was just blackmail. Moreover, Northern Jin should have discussed it with Northern Zhou and Southern Yan in advance, just look at how Northern Jin plays with Southern Chu." Zhu Huaizhen suddenly yawned repeatedly.
She seemed to have done nothing all day long, so why was she so sleepy?
However, Zhu Huaizhen was not happy at all with the recent weather in Nanchu, as it always rained.
"Your Highness, the people of Nanchu seem unable to accept it." Tu Mi sighed lightly.
As soon as Tu Mi went out, he saw many enthusiastic people who ran to the gate of the Jokhang Palace and beat the drum to report.
Anyone who beats the drum for reporting will be beaten with the stick forty times, and then must kneel for three days and three nights, which is thirty-six hours. Not even an hour less will be allowed.
"Since you are a passionate person, just show your passion. This way they will be completely indifferent to Nan Chu." Zhu Huaizhen said sullenly.
Zhu Huaizhen was unwilling to admit that the people of Southern Chu were more courageous than the people of Southern Wu after all.
When Southern Wu was destroyed, not a single Southern Wu person stood up to fight against the Southern Yan army with their flesh and blood.
Thinking of this, Zhu Huaizhen rubbed his forehead.
This Southern Chu may be difficult to destroy.
