The First Emperor first came to the viewing platform not far from the palace gate. This platform was more than ten feet high and guarded by railings around it. Emperor Qin led his ministers to the observation deck and saw Sanxian Mountain emerging from the sky, standing between heaven and earth. Mao Ying pointed to the mountain in front and said: "Your Majesty, right in front is Penglai Fairy Mountain, in the middle is Yingzhou Island, and the farthest east side is Fangzhang Island. This pool is more than twenty miles long from east to west and ten miles wide from north to south. There are gates at the east and west ends. The positions of the three mountains are alternately sparse and dense, roughly in the shape of a Chinese glyph. The entire mountain is high in the west and low in the east, with its pillow on the west and its foot on the east, symbolizing the eternal submission of all parts of Shandong to the Qin State." Qin Shihuang listened to Mao Ying's explanation. , full of praise. Accompanied by hundreds of officials, they set foot on the water passage leading to Penglai to the north.
When the First Emperor was walking on the passage, he saw the water in the pool was clear, the blue waves were rippling, and the mountain shadows were reflected, like a painted screen. Looking at the water, there are red lotuses with heads raised everywhere, as well as leaping carps and ducks playing in the water. They all play freely and complement each other. When the team came to the lush green depths of the mountain, they found a tall and majestic gate in front of them. This gate had a glazed tile roof, red columns, and a white marble platform. It was divided into a main entrance and two side entrances on the left and right. Look. Go up to the eaves and brackets, and the colors will flow. In the middle of the doorrail hangs a gilt flat forehead with the four seal characters "Penglai Wonderland" written on it. After passing the gate, the first step is a winding cobblestone road, surrounded by clusters of flowers and precious trees, as well as some small rockeries, piled with stones and jade, which are completely natural. After walking for more than two miles, everyone came to the climbing place and started climbing.
There are small bridges, stone tables, pavilions, and seats beside the mountain path, which are all decorated in a new way. There are also big trees like umbrellas, which are specially designed to provide visitors with shade and avoid the sun, which is very comfortable. When people walked through the bay, they heard a thunderous sound, which almost shocked everyone, but they didn't know what the sound was. The emperor hurriedly turned around the mountain. It turned out that the sound was coming from the waterfall on the mountain. The First Emperor asked Mao Ying curiously: "Where does this water come from?" Mao Ying replied: "There is a water channel on the mountain. The water wheel leads the water to the highest point, and the waterfall is formed." The First Emperor was very excited. He saw the water coming from Flowing down from the cliffs, the waves splashing at the roots of the water are like rushing snow and rolling jade. The diffuse water mist appears in the morning light and appears as a beautiful rainbow. The female relatives were greatly impressed when they saw this, and they talked endlessly. Qin Shihuang couldn't help but smile when he saw people's enthusiasm. Those precious tree species such as pine, bamboo, nan, and cypress transplanted near and far are decorated with mottled green colors on the light-colored rocks, as well as those golden roofs and pavilions with blue bricks and red tiles. Buried deep in the vast blue sky, it looks like a colorful gouache painting.
Everyone enjoyed the scenery along the way and finally climbed to the main peak of Penglai. The top of this mountain peak is wide and flat, and there is also the Chucheng Pavilion specially built for Mao Meng. Opposite is the Tianxian Terrace, and there are two small peaks on the left and right. On the left peak is the Temple of Hope, and on the right peak is the Xian Sheng Tower. Those green tiles and red walls are buried among famous flowers and trees, and the diffuse morning mist seems to be covered with a light veil, forming a hazy scene and adding a mysterious atmosphere.
The First Emperor came to Chucheng Pavilion and worshiped Mao Chucheng very devoutly. He prayed silently: "Immortal, I hope to come here as soon as possible and receive your enlightenment." After the sacrifice, the First Emperor came to Tianxian Terrace. On the way up, he looked north at the Wei River, feeling truly heroic; looking down at the Orchid Pond, he suddenly felt relaxed and happy. I saw the trees surrounding the orchid pond on both sides like a green barrier, surrounding the turquoise water flowing eastward slowly, with ripples in the water. In the distance, the magnificent Lanchi Palace is located in the south of the pool. The roof is filled with thick smoke and purple mist, and the aroma is overflowing. That is the smell of burning peppers and orchids. When people are there, they realize that this is not a fairyland, but better than a fairyland. The first emperor couldn't help but admired: "I don't think that the wonders of man-made things can reach such a wonderful level! How can a god not come to the world?" He named Mao Ying the Lord of the Three Mountains and gave him the title of 'Penglai Zhenren'. ' title. There is a poem praising:
The construction of Penglai is a wonder, and the king is obsessed with worshiping the immortal master.
Where is the immortal in Chucheng Pavilion? The shadow of the sun moves in the Xian Sheng Tower.
From the east, Hanguan is rejected and boasts of its great achievements, while from the west, the Weishui River flows into Yaochi.
The great creation of things is inferior to the creation of heart, so many men are hurt and separated.
It was noon, and the First Emperor and everyone were eating and resting in the library. An hour later, he led everyone down the mountain. When they came to the bottom of the mountain, they found a unique water corridor, and everyone hurriedly walked towards the corridor. There are circular windows on both sides of the corridor. After walking through the corridor, you will reach the boundary of Yingzhou Island. At this time, there was a winding and narrow road that went eastward for a mile, and then circled north, and the water area became even wider. When everyone walked through a gentle slope, they saw a unique rainbow bridge in front of them. This bridge is built of sandalwood with a gallery roof. The bridge is 30 meters long and is named "Tongxian Bridge". The water was gurgling under the bridge and the waves were splashing. Everyone climbed up from the left side and got off from the right side. After walking a little further, I saw the second gate in front of me. The words "Yingzhou Scenic Spot" are eye-catching and solemn, with vigorous calligraphy. After entering the door, everyone climbed along the rugged mountain road until they reached the southwest, which is the steepest part of the path. Here, a steep stone-based step was built with stones, which was named the 'Ladder to Heaven'. Everyone was panting and climbing towards the ladder. The ladder stands abruptly. If there are no iron chains on both sides to protect it, people will fall off the cliff when climbing. The ministers protected the First Emperor and still climbed towards the ladder. The people behind could only see the heels of the people in front, while the people in front saw the tops of the people behind. As the saying goes, 'the pictures are too tiring for people'. After climbing the ladder, you will reach the main peak of Yingzhou Island. There is a four-story, octagonal and four-wall attic here called Shengxian Pavilion, which is extremely spectacular. On the left is Chisun Temple and on the right is Guangcheng Temple. Their architectural level is very exquisite, and they can be said to be artistic masterpieces in the history of pavilion architecture. There is a poem praising:
The peaks stand out with lush greenery, and the peaks are as rugged as hairpins.
The iron cable climbs in the air and the narrow path is thin, and the sandalwood bridge is empty and the white clouds are low.
Yingzhou is comfortable where you stay, but the village road is bleak and the husband and wife are apart.
There is no reason for this disaster to happen to the world, and it is inevitable that Shaqiu will return to the west.
It was already afternoon, and the First Emperor stayed in Shengxian Pavilion to prepare for dinner. An hour later, it was already dusk. The First Emperor was resting when Mao Ying came to visit and said: "Your Majesty, there are 20,000 lanterns hung on the mountain. The night view here must be rare in the world! It is getting late now, so I came here to ask Your Majesty if I can light the lanterns." Hearing this, the First Emperor was very excited. Pleased, he sent an order to light the lamp. After Mao Ying got the promise, she stepped out and lit the highest lamp first. At this time, the personnel on duty in other places saw the first lantern turned on, and lit the lanterns everywhere one after another. After a while, Penglai and Abbot lit up, and so did Orchid Pond. The peaks, pavilions, rockeries, bridges, water corridors, corridors, dragon boats, water surface, as well as the railings and sidewalks beside the pool are all filled with colorful lights, as if the entire Orchid Pond has become a world of lights.
From the overall layout, Fangzhang Island is the farthest away from here. As the saying goes, there are gatherings and dispersions, and the density is appropriate. After Qin Shihuang watched the night view, he reluctantly set foot on the road to Fangzhang Island. It turns out that there are two roads connected, one is a land road, about five miles long, the road surface is two meters above the water, and the road is six meters wide. Everyone looked around and saw the reflection of the light falling on the sparkling water, like a swimming water dragon. The other access is the waterway, which can only be reached by boat. Qin Shihuang saw that everyone was tired from walking, so he decided to take the water route. When they came to the shore at the foot of the mountain, someone had already prepared a boat. The First Emperor and Mao Ying sat in the same big dragon boat, the ministers sat in the same boat, the beauties sat in the same boat, and the princes, emperors and grandsons sat in the same boat. The First Emperor's dragon boat took the lead, and they rowed into the water one by one. At this time, Fangzhang Mountain looks like a big lantern floating in the water from a distance, and the light-colored rock appears golden under the influence of the light. Just as the ship was moving forward, someone suddenly screamed: "Monster! Monster!" It turned out that it was not a monster, but a large stone whale statue placed in the water. Because of its huge size, it scared them.
Half an hour later, the First Emperor and his party arrived at Fangzhang Island. There were palace people on the shore to pick him up, and the emperor and his ministers came ashore together. After walking about a few hundred meters, we found the gate of the 'Abbott Wonder'. The First Emperor's interest in traveling had not diminished, so he led everyone to take advantage of the opportunity to climb mountains. Although it was already evening, the weather was still very hot. The monarchs and ministers were sweating profusely, and they all cheered up and climbed to the main peak. There are Xuanyuan Palace, Bagua Platform and Chucheng Cave built on the flat land here. There is Xianmen Temple on the left peak and Gao Swearing Temple on the right peak. At this time, the Big Dipper is just overhead. There is a poem praising:
Looking to the south, you can see the rolling waves of the Wei River, and the ever-flowing Qinchuan River.
There are ripples under the golden platform, and the Big Dipper hangs towards the abbot.
The warlocks extorted money and caused great harm to the country, but the First Emperor became more determined as he studied Taoism.
Spring flowers and autumn months come every year, when will the sweat descend on the valleys and mountains?
The First Emperor ascended the Bagua stage surrounded by everyone. At this time, the Orchid Pond was enveloped in lights. Although the night is late, the night view is even more beautiful. The First Emperor took the stage and looked around. For a moment, his chest was wide open and he was full of pride. He felt that all the people in the world were under his feet. He looked up to the sky and laughed and said: "Qin has unified the six kingdoms, the world is in good weather, the country is peaceful and the people are safe. Today I will meet with you on this stage, and I would like to be with you." Let’s all congratulate you together: First, congratulations to the heaven and earth for the great favor of the Qin Dynasty, which stands proudly in the sky and stands in the east! Secondly, congratulations to the people of Qin for their loyalty and bravery, fighting against millions of people, and finally the world! Thirdly, congratulations to the completion of the three mountains, the arrival of all the immortals, and joy in Jiaping! I Why don't you and your ministers sing a song to help make this event more prosperous?" When everyone heard the emperor's invitation, they all responded loudly: "I obey the holy command!" The music officials played an elegant piece of music together. The palace maids danced on the red cove in the center again. Everyone sang together:
Fangzhang Island is like a fairyland, with flowers blooming and laughing in the east wind. Princes, beauties and beauties come to accompany them, their beautiful clothes and embroidered clothes reflect their beauty. The jade-colored luan clangs, and the fine jade liquid persuades me.
The hanging road on Yingzhou Island is long, and the qi trees are beautiful and the pear trees are fragrant. All the princes and distinguished guests are here, wearing hairpins, tassels and ribbons with high spirits. With wide sleeves and many elegant shoes, we wish the king a long life.
Luan and phoenix are coming from Penglai Mountain, and the nanmu trees are tall and straight, and a hundred flowers are blooming. The founding emperor of the People's Republic of China is here today, and his dragon crown is shining brightly. You are so handsome and full of energy, I wish you happiness.
After the song, the First Emperor drank dozens of cups with everyone, and before he realized he was very drunk, he said to all the officials: "I have issued an edict: Tomorrow, every mile of Guizhou will be rewarded with six stones of rice and two sheep, so that the world can celebrate together for ten days. In response to the meaning of 'Jiaping'!" All the ministers shouted in unison: "Long live, long live, long live!" The voice was loud and resounded throughout the sky.
In the next few days, the First Emperor, accompanied by Mao Ying, lingered here all day. One night, the First Emperor wanted to visit Lanchi again, so he only brought a few guards with high martial arts skills out of the palace. Unexpectedly, as soon as he went out, five masked killers jumped out, each holding a sharp knife, to kill the First Emperor. However, all of his guards were masters of the field. After a few moves, the five of them could no longer resist and immediately escaped. It turned out that they were the five strong men of Bolangsha. The First Emperor was so frightened that he became furious and arrested nearby people for torture and interrogation, trying to find out who the assassin was. I struggled like this for more than twenty days, but got nothing. The emperor believed that this was done by the people in Guanzhong, so he deliberately raised the price of rice to retaliate against the people. He increased the price from one stone to one thousand six hundred yuan. Prime Minister Wang Wan was so loyal that he once again remonstrated. But he didn't expect that this time he really angered the emperor, so Wang Wan was demoted from his official position and thrown into prison.
