Nanyu Prefecture, located along the Yangtze River of the Great Zhou, boasted unparalleled beauty, with its enchanting views around Yu Lake and the year-round fragrant flowers and exotic plants.
The four seasons were distinct; there were vibrant willows and peach blossoms in spring, lotus ponds full of lotus flowers in summer, mid-autumn's moon gazing and flower pageant, and silent city under white snow in winter.
Heading down the Yangtze River from Fuyao State, Nanyu Prefecture lied in the middle of the journey.
The hills and flower beds were reflected in the shimmering waves along the journey.
A small tour boat gently departed from the river.
At the stern of the boat, the helmsman wearing a Douli hat was shouting commands and greeting to passers-by on other boats.
At the bow, there were two radiant figures standing.
One was a vibrant youth dressed in coarse clothes, exuding an extraordinary air; He stood tall, his features bright, and his eyes sparkling.
