He reminisced about the time when he was an official in Luoyang, and to his surprise, Fenggao now bore a resemblance to the imperial capital.

Seeing the citizens living and working in peace and the prosperity under this governance, compared to the previous small county town of Fenggao, Liu Xuande truly deserves to be called a Mighty Lord," Ju Shou reflected, comparing Fenggao with Bohai, which he was proud of, and could only heave a long sigh in the end.
