Song Zhiyuan was in the Imperial Palace, looking at the nautical chart presented by Chu Ze Si and the map of that island.
"Just by looking at the map, one might really think this small island is full of vitality, worthy of being called an earthly paradise, but who knows if that's truly the case." Song Zhiyuan admired the map, expressing his amazement: "The person who drew this map is probably a master of painting and calligraphy; I almost feel like I've walked right into it. If Cabinet Minister Ning really intends to leave a backup plan for the younger generation in his family, then this indeed is a suitable place for thriving and lying low."
Emperor Chu spoke casually: "No matter how much of an earthly paradise, it is far from the lands of Great Qing Country. One can avoid the world, but if one wants to emerge, they will eventually poke their head out from there. Or perhaps, they have already started to peek."
