Wangdongting
Don Liu Yuxi
The lake and the moon set each other off, and there is no wind mirror on the pool surface.
Looking at Dongting from a distance, there is a green snail in the silver plate.
translate
The water color and moonlight of Dongting Lake reflect each other, and the lake is calm, just like an unpolished bronze mirror.
Looking at Dongting Lake from a distance, the landscape is as green as ink, like a green snail in a silver plate.
