Historical legends of Suya Lake

Legend has it that a long time ago, there was no lake here, but a place where rivers crisscrossed and waterlogged for more than ten years, and wild animals often appeared. A few years later, Yuan Di sealed his son in Runan. The prince was cruel and good at riding and shooting. One spring, the prince led the guards out of the city to inspect one side on behalf of the emperor, only to find that there were birds and animals in the sky, and he was ecstatic. Then he drew his bow and arrow and shot a fox. Who knows that the fox didn't die, but ran away with an arrow.

The prince chased after him, but was blocked by the village. Angry, the sovereign ordered "horse racing" and decided to use this land as a royal hunting ground. A sign engraved with "Royal Hunting Ground, Forbidden Area" was inserted on the land in Fiona Fang Si Wuli. All the villages in the field were demolished and the people moved out within a time limit. Those who violate the order will copy the whole family! From then on, until the demise of the Ming Dynasty for more than 300 years, it was always the "royal hunting ground" of the Runan captaincy.

People discontentedly call it "officialdom slope". Rivers have been in disrepair for a long time, and floods have flooded. Every summer, Wang Yang is everywhere. Flocks of wild ducks and waterfowl flew here to settle down and multiply, and the officialdom slope became the world of wild ducks and waterfowl. So people renamed it "Suya Lake". At the end of the Ming Dynasty, Li Zicheng, the king of Lin, led a bloody battle of 400,000 at the gates of Ru 'nan, but the prince was captured alive, and the "Yanwang Temple" was burned, which was called "the Battle of Ru 'ning Mansion" in history, and this land was returned to the people.
