In beauty, the author recalls the sentence that the old country lamented that things were different.

Carved fences and jade bricks should still exist, but Zhu Yan changed them.

There are two meanings:

1, when I was the monarch, the palace was still there, but the owner of the palace was not myself.

2. The carved fence around me has not changed, but I am no longer in my prime and my identity has changed.

In other words, things change hands.
