This matter has to start with going to the water park.

In fact, Liu Che already knew that there was such a thing as a water park when he saw the itinerary, but because Liu Tan made the arrangements later, Liu Che didn't rush to ask.

Liu Tan's arrangement was mainly based on the weather. By the time he arranged, the weather was already hot, and he happened to go to Yangshan to escape the summer heat, enjoy the cool, play in the water and so on.

The first day of the water park must be to swim in the lake.

In summer, the lotus leaves and flowers are in continuous stretches, and occasionally a few deep and shallow red embellishments appear in the emerald green at a glance, which is indeed pleasing to the eye.

Of course, swimming in the lake would not allow the emperor to walk among the lotus leaves, so Liu Tan had already vacated the waterway when the lotus was planted.

The cruise ship has been prepared a long time ago, with a total of two floors, the lower floor is the cabin, and the upper floor is an open viewing platform.

The officials brought to Liu Che on the deck went sightseeing, while Liu Tan and Lu Xuan accompanied Liu Che to the second floor for sightseeing.

The fun of swimming in the lake can actually last for a short time, but the real fun here in Liu Tan is probably boating on the lake, watching while eating.

Because of the special location, the ingredients for this meal are basically taken from the lake.

In addition to some vegetables, the main dishes are lotus root and fish, as well as some freshwater shellfish.

Just the lotus root made him cook several dishes, including the sweet and sour lotus root that Liu Che likes, the glutinous rice lotus root, and the soup made with shellfish and lotus root.

The cooking of fish is relatively simple, that is, it is simply steamed and then poured with sauce, so that it is fresh to eat.

This meal made Liu Che feel refreshed, and after eating, looking at the blurry tall buildings in the distance, he couldn't help asking: "Up until now, you haven't told me what those are."

Liu Tan glanced at it and said with a smile: "Those, you will know when you get there tomorrow!"

Liu Che was a little surprised: "Tomorrow? Are you planning to go back today?"

Liu Tan nodded: "Yes, there will be fun tomorrow. If I go back today and come back tomorrow, I'm afraid it will be too late."

Liu Che asked, "Have you ordered people to set up camp?"

Liu Tan smiled and said, "There's no need to set up camp, there is a place to live."

Liu Che looked around subconsciously, and it turned out that these places didn't even have a building, let alone a palace.

Except for Yangshan Mountain over there, the surrounding area is basically plains, and you can see far away at a glance.

Liu Che turned to look at Liu Tan: "Really?"

Liu Tan nodded vigorously: "It really is."

After he finished speaking, he waited for Liu Che to continue to ask, but he didn't expect Liu Che to stop asking. Liu Tan didn't say a word of his prepared speech and almost suffocated himself to death.

Liu Che smiled at his bewildered look, what is there to ask?Anyway, his son can always arrange it properly, and he will never be allowed to sleep in the carriage, although considering the size of his carriage, even sleeping in the carriage will not cause any discomfort.

After the meal, the lake tour basically came to an end, and at most it was to let Liu Che enjoy his fishing addiction.

Anyway, Liu Tan doesn't know why his father loves fishing so much. The most important thing is that he never heard of Liu Che's love of fishing when he was in Chang'an. I don't know why the fish in the northern border country are so attractive to him.

Not to mention, the fish Liu Tan got in this pond were not small in size, and Liu Che was very satisfied with fishing. After someone took the fish away, he suddenly turned to look at Liu Tan: "You won't change this fish for me again. right?"

Liu Tan: ...

He said helplessly: "No, this is our own fish."

After fishing, the boat floated around on the lake and it was time to leave.

After getting into the carriage, Liu Che kept observing their route, only to find that their destination seemed to be the woods!

Live in the woods?

This is unprecedented. In the past, no matter where you go, there are only a few places you can choose to camp when you go out. The most important things are first, there must be a water source nearby, and second, the area should be open.

Almost no one camps in the woods.

It's just that after approaching the woods, Liu Che could tell from the outside that the woods should have been cleaned up, at least no wild and long woods could leave a road for his frame to enter.

It's just that Liu Che was able to enter the woods by car, and there was Liu Tan who was riding the car. If Liu Tan hadn't accompanied him in Liu Che's car, Liu Tan would have come in on horseback at this moment.

The rest of the officials had already got out of the car and changed their horses outside. Although those people were puzzled, they didn't say much, even if they were dissatisfied, they didn't dare to speak out.

After entering the woods, they found that the woods had been cleaned up very cleanly, which was different from the damp and miasma-filled forests in their impression.

There is soft grass under the horseshoes, wild bushes on both sides of the road, and the trees are thick and thin.

The vacant road leads directly to the very center of the forest. When they got there, everyone couldn't help but hold their breath and looked up at the huge monster in front of them.

It may not be accurate to say that it is a huge monster, but just like when Lu Xuan recognized the tree house as a real tree, everyone thought it was a real tree at this time.

No one has ever seen a huge tree covering an area of ​​[-] to [-] square meters, and some people even got off their horses and began to pay homage on the spot—such a huge tree may have lived for many years, even if it did not become a spirit, it would be almost the same.

It may even be an ancient relic.

So when Liu Tan helped Liu Che get out of the car, when he looked up, he saw kneeling in the back, only a few who didn't kneel, most of them were dumbfounded, and there was only one Lu Xuan in the middle with a face full of helplessness.

Liu Che couldn't see as well as those outside the car. It was only after he got out of the car that he saw how shocking the towering giant tree was in front of him, and he couldn't help feeling a little dazed for a moment.

Seeing that his father was also shocked, Liu Tan quickly said, "It's fake, it's a fake tree!"

Not to mention, if Liu Che ordered some kind of sacrifice to worship the tree, or wanted to talk to the tree, or even climb the tree to seek immortality, then he would just wait to be dealt with.

Liu Che restrained his mind and asked, "Fake?"

Liu Tan didn't know whether to laugh or cry and said, "Yes, even Chang'an, a place where Longxing is prosperous, doesn't have such a huge tree. How could there be such a huge tree in the Northern Border Kingdom? This one was made out of cement by my servant."

Liu Che used to trust Liu Tan, and he didn't doubt it after listening to it. The most important thing is that Liu Tan doesn't have to tell the truth as a lie. God, and then use it to seek prosperity.

In other words, Liu Tanhui directly told him that it was fake.

But Liu Che was still a little strange: "But this appearance..."

Liu Tan coughed lightly: "The bark is real."

After Liu Tan's explanation, Liu Che realized that the inside of this tree is made of cement and iron bars, while the outside is pasted with real bark, because the bark is selected from trees of similar age. , and then carefully selected, so that the bark seems to be one piece, which makes the tree look very real.

Liu Che looked up to the direction of the tree crown and asked, "What about these leaves? They are not fake, right?"

Liu Tan touched his nose and said, "Those tiny branches are all planted on the trunk, and there is soil in the trunk, so those leaves are indeed real."

Liu Che looked up for a while, and then approached the giant tree to take a look. Liu Tan carefully opened a small piece to let him see the off-white cement inside, which convinced Liu Che that it was fake.

At this time, Liu Che discovered that there was a wooden staircase behind the tree.

Liu Tan pointed to the stairs and said with a smile, "This tree is the imperial father's bedroom today."

Liu Che:? ? ? ? ?

Before he entered the woods, he had imagined a lot. He also saw the tents scattered in the woods, and thought that he was living in the tents as well.

Not to mention, those tents are also quite rustic, surrounded by branches, leaves and flowers, which are not badly decorated.

Didn't expect his son to let him live in a tree?

Liu Che couldn't imagine what the bedroom in the tree looked like, so he could only walk up to see it for himself.

Fortunately, the stairs were not very high. After walking half a circle around the giant tree, Liu Che saw a door, which also looked like tree bark. No wonder he didn't see it just now.

Liu Tan had been following behind him just now, when he stretched out his hand and opened the door, the scene inside immediately fell into Liu Che's eyes - it was a round room as a whole.

The room is not big, and most of the furnishings inside are log-colored. There is a window opposite the door. At this time, a pair of light green gauze curtains in front of the window sway gently with the wind, and the whole room exudes a faint atmosphere. The fragrance of grass and trees is not particularly present, but it can soothe people's spirits.

Liu Che walked around the room, and found that there was a small viewing platform on the side. He walked over to take a look, and there was a gust of steamy wind blowing, which really felt good.

While Liu Tan was accompanying Liu Che to visit the tree house, the lower officials had already started to arrange residences for other officials.

Liu Che stood on the viewing platform and watched for a while, saw the bathroom prepared for him, and also saw the restaurant, but he didn't see any other tree houses, so he couldn't help but feel a little strange: "Where is your house?" ?”

Liu Tan pointed to the two largest tents below and said, "Over there, Ah Xuan and I live there."

Liu Che frowned slightly: "The forest is damp, how can you live there?"

Liu Tan said with a smile: "Father, don't worry, the cement boards have been paved underneath, just for convenience."

Liu Tan originally wanted to build a few small wooden houses, but wood is very precious in the northern border countries, and they need to be maintained from time to time. Anyway, they can't live here for too long, so building wooden houses is rather troublesome.

If Liu Che came every year in the future, he would build a few more buildings, and even expand the scope of the forest. Otherwise, everyone would have wooden houses to live in, and the result would still be that there would not be many trees left in the forest.

After everyone settled down, the sky was getting dark. Liu Che sat on the viewing platform and watched the dark forest light up. Those lights were not very bright, but it was the light that gave the forest a glow. A mysterious taste.

Liu Tan asked: "Father, pass on the meal?"

Liu Che stood up and said, "Let's pass it on."

Liu Tan didn't announce what the dishes would be today, and Liu Che didn't hold out too much hope, but what he didn't expect was that today's dishes were all served on leaves!
