Features: The wind is gentle, and the garden remains unchanged. Strolling through the small courtyard of Yipu Qinlu under the moonlight, watching the shadows of trees, deep and shallow, cover the tall, weathered walls, one often transcends time and space. The lights of the night performances at Jinshan Temple by the Ming Dynasty scholars, the hoofprints of the Southern Song patriots "seeking fragrance on Cuiwei Mountain," and the elegant sails of the Wei and Jin figures rowing boats, playing flutes, and visiting Dai in snowy nights all appear and disappear among the interwoven branches. The lights flicker, and the hoofprints fade, but their soaring personalities, exceptional aesthetic tastes, and noble integrity seem to linger long in the deeper night between these high walls and majestic buildings, silently radiating brilliance. The tree shadows are like a painting.
