Deep in Hualin Garden, the scenery of twilight winter is still very beautiful, quiet and quiet. Thick snow covers the ground, and the cold air stings the skin. The sun is shining, and the black and pressed bald branches of the plants in the garden are varied. Hundreds of years old trees, scattered behind the palace, on the hillside. The dark green treetops, like a dragon, rise into the sky, giving people a magnificent and desolate beauty.
Cold smoke filled the air, and on the sun-warmed cornices above the temple, there were some strange-looking jackdaws crouching there, snuggling there silently, as if asleep. The dazzling glow of the warm sun made them feel happy, no longer squeaking, squinting their eyes to look at the colorful world again.

The road in the garden was covered with a layer of soft snow, and because of the large number of people hunting in Changsha and the East Sea King, countless horseshoe prints were left. In particular, the king of Changsha, with a strong body, likes to gallop on horseback. The people behind him did not dare to relax, and followed him up and down the mountain, and the horseshoe kicked the frozen soil on the side of the road.
Deep in the back garden of Hualin Garden, white snow piles tripped the horses' hooves from time to time, and the soldiers had to get off their horses and push their horses laboriously. This winter day was not gloomy and harsh, the snow covered the dark dirt of the ground, and the sun hung high in the sky like a huge shining mirror. Since there were no clouds, the wind was strong, the air was cold, stagnant, and the muscles and bones were broken. Soon, the faces of those who were galloping wildly in the wind, their faces were almost frozen, but their expressions were filled with joy and pleasure...

Zu Ti was young and lonely, and there were six brothers. His brothers Zu Cai and Zuna were both cheerful and talented, and they were famous for a while. Zu Di was open-minded in nature and did not practice ritual inspection.

At about the age of twenty-seven or eight, Zu Ti and Liu Kun became colleagues and were both sizhou (司州, in the Han Dynasty, inspector Ofifu with the title of "Lieutenant Colonel of Sili", during the Three Kingdoms period, Wei inherited the system, and the seat of governance was in Henan (present-day eastern Luoyang), and its jurisdiction included today's central Shaanxi, southwestern Shanxi, and western Henan, known as "Sizhou". The Western Jin Dynasty and the Northern Dynasty took the area around the Beijing Division as Sizhou, and the Eastern Jin Dynasty did not move south. The Southern Dynasty set up a prefecture in the Huainan region, and liu Song initially set up a rule of hanging (present-day Runan, Henan), and then set up a main book of pingyang (present-day Xinyang)). The two fell in love at first sight and became intimate friends.
Liu Kun and Zu Di belonged to the same generation of heroes, and the two often talked about the past and the present, and stayed up all night. In the middle of the night, smell the wild chicken (referring to the chicken that cries before the three more. In the old days, the rooster's cry was considered to be an ominous evil sound) Suddenly, Zu Ti woke up Liu Kun, and the alarm encouraged: "This is not an evil sound!" So the two of them jumped up and danced their swords. At that time, whenever they talked about the chaos of the world, the two encouraged each other: "If the four seas are boiling and Haojie rises together, my generation should fight the royal family and save the world Li Shu!" ”
In the future, Zu and Liu "smelled the chicken dancing" and became a beautiful talk.
