Pangpang and Zhuangzhuang sent the person to the gate of Duke Jingguo's mansion. When they watched the two sisters go in, they turned around and left to buy roast duck. When they returned to the Shen family, Zhuangzhuang mysteriously pulled Chen Danxia out, "Mom, I tell you, the elder brother just saved the beauty on the street."

"Second brother, don't talk nonsense." said the fat man with a face.

"What am I talking nonsense? Brother, is Miss Zeng not beautiful? Or does the elder brother think he doesn't look like a hero?" Zhuangzhuang asked with a wicked smile.

Pangpang was speechless and looked embarrassed.

Chen Danxia raised his hand and patted Zhuangzhuang, "Okay, bad boy, don't always bully your elder brother, what's going on?"

Zhuangzhuang said what happened just now, and Chen Danxia frowned and said, "This brocade is getting more and more chaotic. In broad daylight, someone dares to kill people with a knife."

"I asked the guards to take those four people to the yamen. After interrogation, we should be able to find out who did it." Pangpang replied.

Chen Danxia's bright eyes flowed and she smiled and said, "To be honest, you two are at the age of getting married."

"Mom, my son has no idea of ​​getting married yet." Pangpang said blushingly.

"No son, either." Zhuangzhuang immediately left it clear.

"Men get married when they are old, and women get married when they are old. Don't be so shy. Pangpang, what do you think of that girl Zeng?" Chen Dan asked with a narrow smile.

"Mom, I don't understand a question, so I'm going to ask for advice from sir." Pangpang found an excuse to slip away.

"Mom, I don't understand the problem that my brother doesn't understand. I'll go and ask the sir." Zhuangzhuang also went out.

Chen Danxia looked at the two boys who were running away, shook the fan and scolded, "Two bad boys."

Zeng Yuehong and Deng Xiaosi met Pangpang by chance and became a disaster. The eldest princess who stole out of the palace was not so lucky. She was caught by the King of Yan and locked up in the dungeon. The eldest princess didn't know that the person who caught her was sent by the King of Yan, and it was both noisy and quarrel, "Do you guys, do you know who this palace is? You dare to abduct me. When your father and mother know, you will definitely be abusing your nine tribes."

The person who caught her did not hear it and took off her neck. When she was one year old, Empress Zhao hung the life-protecting jade lock for her; King Yan took the jade lock into the palace, "I haven't come to pay my respects for my mother for a long time. Empress Zhao has been doing well recently?"

Empress Zhao didn't know about the eldest princess leaving the palace, so she asked coldly: "What's wrong with you here?"

"I have something to give to my mother queen." King Yan handed the small brocade box containing the jade lock to Queen Zhao.

Empress Zhao stared at him suspiciously, and after a long time, she reached out to take the brocade box. When she opened it, her face changed slightly, "What's wrong with you?" Empress Zhao valued the most was the fourth prince, and the one who was most in pain was the eldest princess.

"Don't worry, Mother, she is still very good now." King Yan smiled faintly.

"How do you want to put her back?" Zhao Hou asked directly.

"I am determined to win the position of Right Minister of War." The King of Yan did not go around the corner.

Empress Zhao tightened the jade lock in her hand, "Shang Xi has taken office."

"Whether the mother can let Xu Lang go home to mourn, let Shang Xi Ding worry or resign, it should be easy to do it with the mother's methods." The King of Yan pointed out that he already knew that it was Empress Zhao who sent someone to kill Xu Kui.

"I understand, when will you let Xiaoer return to the palace?" Empress Zhao had to compromise.

"When the Ministry of Personnel has issued a letter of office, the eldest emperor will come back to see his mother." The King of Yan stood up, "Mother, I will be optimistic about the eldest emperor, the second emperor and the fourth emperor's brother in the future, otherwise they may disappear at any time."

"You demon, get out." Empress Zhao roared.

The King of Yan laughed and left.

Empress Zhao was so angry that she threw the decorations of Qiyuan Palace. Princess Luna could not smash things in the Siyi Pavilion, so she could only beat the maid to vent her anger. It was almost dusk, and the four people sent out had not come back yet. Obviously, the robbery and killing Zeng Yuehong failed, and the four people might be in danger.

"Second brother, your subordinates are all trash, and you can't even kill a woman." Princess Luna said furiously.

"I have sent someone to check what's going on. Don't be impatient." King Jiang comforted her.

Princess Luna sat down at the table, held the pot and poured a cup of tea, picked it up and took a sip, then immediately spit it out, opened her mouth and fanned her hands while slandering: "I'm burning this princess to death."

"Go and get some ice cubes to hold for the princess." King Jiang ordered.

The maid took the order and left.

The ice cube was brought, and the people who went to find the four people also came back, "Prince, they killed a maid and were sent to the Jindu Prefecture Office. Duke Jing had greeted the prefect and investigated the matter strictly."

"Damn it, since you lose your hand, you should break yourself. How can you surrender?" King Jiang said angrily.

"Prince, what should I do now? If they can't stand the torture and confess the prince and princess, I'm afraid Dafeng won't let it go." said the follower.

"What should I do if I ask you? Just find a way to bribe the prison guards and get them out." Princess Luna shouted.

The entourage looked at King Jiang, and King Jiang nodded slightly, and the entourage stepped out to do business.

The next day, the wife of Prince of Jingguo Xia and Deng Ran came to the Xu family with heavy gifts. They were to thank Pangpang for his help. Not long after they left, Mrs. Qin brought Qin Lu to thank Shen Danxia. Mrs. Qin has attended several banquets in several families these days and received invitations from the Dongrong Bo Mansion. After attending the banquet the day before yesterday, she learned that the invitation was sent to her for Shen Danxia's sake, so she came to thank her.

Shen Danxia looked confused. She had no contact with Dongrong Bo Mansion? Why did this Dongrong Bo Mansion send an invitation to Mrs. Qin depending on her face?

After Mrs. Qin left, Mingxiang reminded her: "Madam, the fourth wife's cousin is the second grandmother of the Uncle Dongrong's mansion."

Shen Danxia suddenly realized that after so long, Sun Zhenniang's cousin's affairs should have been resolved. Shen Danxia stayed in the door and handled family affairs every morning, took a nap in the afternoon, or taught Qing'er to play chess, or watched Gao Lei practice calligraphy. His life was as quiet as water.

She kept going out, making King Jiang, who wanted to meet her and seduce her, was very anxious. The four people who were arrested into the Jindu Yamen were destroyed, so he didn't have to worry. The emperor had never summoned him, so he was not in a hurry. He just thought about how to get Shen Danxia.

That night, the thunderstorm struck an old tree and smashed the wall in the back alley. The manager asked the bricklayer to rebuild the wall and asked Shen Danxia to come and inspect it. When he was about to get to the place, Mo Shi pointed to a big tree not far away and said, "Madam, there is a kite there!"

Shen Danxia looked up and saw a bird-shaped kite hanging high on the tree. Ming Xiang said, "Whose kite fell into our mansion? It's so unlucky!"

There is also a saying that flying kites is bad. Putting those dark air on the kites, putting them into the sky, cutting the silk thread means throwing all misfortunes out of the sky and getting healthy from now on; if you pick up a kite that others flew bad luck in your own yard, it would be a very unlucky thing. Shen Danxia did not believe this, but the four mothers believed it, and the maids they taught were also believed in it.

"Sister Mo Si, hurry up and get the kite down." Mingxiang said anxiously.

Mo Shi kicked the tree trunk, and with the force of turning over, he jumped onto the tree and took off the kite. Mingxiang pointed to a little girl and said, "Take it and burn it to ashes, burn it to ash, and burn all the bad luck of the candidate."

The little girl took the kite from Mo Mi's hand and was about to leave. Chen Danxia said, "Slowly, take the kite over and let me see it."

"Madam, this kind of thing is too unlucky, so it's better not to touch it." Mingxiang advised.

"It's okay. If you believe in this thing, you will have it; if you don't believe in it, you will have it." Chen Danxia said with a smile.

Mingxiang had no choice but to let the little girl take it to Chen Danxia. This is a colorful butterfly kite with exquisite workmanship and proper color matching. A poem was written on the front, "The beauty baths, the green lotus blooms in the green. The two buns were tied away like jade, the plain moth shone light green. The elegant and fragrant posture was leisurely, the snow reflected the tinsels and the golden husks were filled with water. The water splashed with blue hair beads, and the crispy fragrance penetrated the flesh."

On the back, it just read: "The heart is as loyal as ever, and I think about the love from afar. Tomorrow, at the beginning of the 19th hour, Jinghu Bajiao Pavilion, prepare a small wine and invites beauties to get drunk together."

Chen Danxia frowned slightly, thought for a while, and said, "Don't forget to send this kite to the third master and tell him that someone flew the kite to our mansion and asked him to check it out, and it was the slut who was doing something wrong here."

Mo Wang took the kite and went to the front yard to find Xu Lang. When Xu Lang looked at the poem above, he realized that someone was teasing his beautiful wife. She didn't show her face and was already furious. The next day, he went to the edge of Jinghu Lake for half an hour in advance.

At the beginning of Si Shi, when he saw King Jiang leading people to appear in the Octagon Pavilion, a cold murderous intent flashed in Xu Lang's eyes, but he did not take action immediately. That night, a fire suddenly broke out in the horse booth in the Siyi Pavilion. After the navy extinguished the fire, the awakened person returned to his room to fall asleep. No one noticed that King Jiang was missing.

When the next morning, Princess Luna waited and saw King Jiang come out for breakfast. She thought King Jiang went to the brothel to have fun and did not come back, but at noon, there was no one yet, so she felt something was wrong. Princess Luna found Zuo Siqing, "It must have been that the villain took advantage of the chaos last night and kidnapped my second prince brother."

The Zuo Temple reported this matter. The King of Yan "attached great importance to it" and sent Dali Temple, the Ministry of Justice, and the Jindu Mansion to jointly find Prince Jiang; the Minister of the Dali Temple, the Minister of Justice and the Prime Minister of the Jindu Mansion came to ask Princess Luna if there were any clues to provide, "After Prince Jiang came to Jindu, can he make a grudge with others?"

"No." Princess Luna dared not say that she had sent someone to rob and kill Zeng Yuehong, nor did she dare to say that King Jiang was coveting Shen Danxia.

If you can't ask any useful information here, you can only do it without any clues, perfunctory, and deal with Princess Luna. She was stolen by Xu Lang's people and locked up in the dungeon below the rockery, and was awakened by cold water.

King Jiang looked at the handsome man in front of him and asked in horror, "Who are you? What do you want to do when you arrest me?"

"My surname is Xu, and my name is Lang." Xu Lang sat in a chair, holding a dagger with a cold light in his hand.

King Jiang was not stupid, and immediately understood the reason for his arrest. He stuttered and defended: "I... I... I just admire Mrs. Ling, and I have no other intentions. I..."

Xu Lang stood up, walked slowly to him, and inserted the dagger into his left eye expressionlessly; King Jiang let out a shrill scream, and Xu Lang crawled out his eyes. People like King Jiang, even if he looked at Chen Danxia, ​​he was obscene to Chen Danxia. He quitted out his left eye, and Xu Lang then quitted out his right eye.

King Jiang fainted from pain, and he wished he could die of pain and avoid suffering.

Xu Lang retreated and "put water to wake him up."

The guard brought a basin of cold water and sucked King Jiang to wake him up. King Jiang begged: "Please, give me some joy."

Xu Lang was unmoved, but he did not take action again, but handed it to the guards, asking him to cut King Jiang several times a day, and he must torture a shameless person like him before he could die. Twenty days later, on the day when King Jiang died, urgent reports came from Yunnan. The enemy from Southern Myanmar repeatedly robbed Dafeng's caravans, and the troops in Southern Myanmar gathered at the border to start a war with Dafeng. The King of Yan immediately asked the emperor to dispatch troops and let the Dafeng army rush to Yunnan. The general who led the troops was Yan Jintian. He sent another imperial guard to surround the Siyiguan and trapped Princess Luna to death in the Siyiguan.

Overnight, Princess Luna became a VIP and became a prisoner, with no sympathy. On the sixth day of the official battle between Dafeng and Nanmei, Princess Luna was tied to the execution ground; Princess Luna did not want to die and shouted loudly: "I am the princess of Nanmei. You can't kill me, you have no right to kill me."

But who would listen to her?

Princess Luna, who wanted to suppress the noble women of Dafeng, was chopped off her head and took her blood to sacrifice the flag. The King of Yan followed Duan Yu's advice and put Princess Luna's head in a brocade box and sent it to Nanming. The King of Nanming was so angry that he almost led his troops to fight with the soldiers of Dafeng.

By the end of this war planned by King Yan and others, it was the end of the year. Southern Myanmar State once again discussed peace at the cost of ceding the six cities. He rewarded me with merits. General Xi, the previous life, seized the opportunity this time, was promoted, and brought his wife and daughter back to Jindu.

After the Chinese New Year, the grandchildren of Pangpang can be eliminated. In order to let Pangpang and Zhuangzhuang experience the life of the academy, Cheng Jue discussed with Xu Lang and sent them to Zhaowen Pavilion. Pangpang is the eldest son and is a steady person; Zhuangpang is relatively lively. After only half a month in the museum, he had a conflict with others and made an appointment to fight in literature.

The gentlemen at Zhaowenguan also enjoyed seeing the students become so famous. They set up a stage for the two to compete and welcomed people to watch. The first game was a pair of couples, and the second game was to write a poem in an incense stick of time. Mr. Cai asked to give the title a temporary title at that time, and the third game was to compare it to a painting.

It is common for literati to fight wisdom among literati and elegant. With the promotion of Zhaowenguan, it is said that four new masters will be produced. In this way, the audience gathered, three floors inside and outside, surrounding the arena.

In order to support his precious grandson, Dow bought a private room in a restaurant opposite the ring. On this day, he led his wife and daughter to sit in the private room. Regardless of the cold, he opened the window and looked out.

Zhuangzhuang was wearing a royal blue brocade robe and tied her hair with a green jade crown; the person who competed with him was surnamed Wang and named Xiaozhen; Wang Xiaozhen was Cheng Wang's cousin. Wang once hoped that Cheng Jue would accept him as his disciple, but Cheng Jue refused; Wang Xiaozhen was arrogant and believed that Cheng Jue looked down on him. After Pang Pangzhuang entered Zhaowen Pavilion, he wanted to suppress them, wanting to tell Cheng Jue that he had no eyes and missed his uncensored jade.

Pangpang was too lazy to pay attention to him, and Zhuangpang was not convinced, so the conflict broke out and today's competition came into being.

After some politeness, the couple started to be paired up, and Zhuang Zhuang first came out, "The stars in the sky, the stove in the ground, the center of the people, and the meanings of the characters are different."

Wang Xiaozhen replied: "Geese among the clouds, swallows in front of the eaves, and turtles by the fences, and the species are the same."

The neat and ingenious people, cheered loudly. Then Wang Xiaozhen published the first couplet, "The sound of pine and bamboo, the sound of bells and chimes, and the sound of sounds is self-responsive."

Zhuangzhuang replied: "The mountains, water, smoke, and colors are all empty."

"Okay, OK" the onlookers next to them applauded.

Zhuang Zhuang came out of the first couplet, thought for a while, and said, "A single boat, two, three sluts, four oars and five sails, passed through six beaches and seven bays, and experienced eight or nine bumps. It's a pity that it's very late."

This first couplet includes the number from one to ten, and the second couplet naturally needs to go from ten to one, which is quite difficult. Wang Xiaozhen narrowed his eyes, thought carefully for a while, and said, "After ten years of hard work, I entered nine and eight academies, abandoned my seven emotions and six desires, studied the Five Classics and Four Books hard, and took the exam three times. I must win today."

Wang Xiaozhen came out right, and was very neatly right. Zhuangzhuang was a little surprised and put away his contempt. Wang Xiaozhen thought for a while and said, "It's not black, it's not white, it's not red, it's not red, it's not like foxes, cats and dogs, it's neither domestic animals nor wild animals."

This couplet is about Wang Xiaozhen's words when he was chatting with his friend. This couplet is not just the first couplet, it is also a puzzle. It can be seen that Wang Xiaozhen has racked his brains to win this game.

It is not easy to express this couplet. Wang Xiaozhen's lips raised up, and finally stumped people. Zhuangzhuang thought for a long time before he spoke: "There are poems, lyrics, and the Analects of Confucius. They are vague about the east, west, south and north. Although it is a short work, it is a wonderful article."

Wang Xiaozhen didn't expect that Zhuangzhuang would be in line with such a difficult first couplet. When he heard this first couplet, he thought about it for a long time but couldn't be in line. It was a friend who told him that the second couplet, and then he suddenly realized, how could Xu Junyan be in line with it? Did he know this pair for a long time?

Zhuang Zhuang looked at the incense in the incense burner, and there was only a little left, and smiled and said, "The fragrance is almost burned. In this last couplet, a short couplet is produced, smoke locks the willows in the pond."

In the teahouse, Chen Danxia heard the first couplet and cursed, "This slippery boy has definitely made things difficult for everyone." This first couplet was not thought of by Zhuang Zhuang, but was said casually when Chen Danxia taught Gao Lei's rhythm not long ago.

This first couplet sounds simple, but after careful consideration, I found that these five words use the five elements as radicals, and the pond is a synthetic word. The smoke in the sentence uses metaphorical rhetoric. It is not easy to get the second couplet. Zhuang Zhuang is sure to win, with a smile on his lips, looking at the incense in the incense burner, waiting for it to burn.

Wang Xiaozhen showed an anxious expression between his eyebrows. In the cold weather, sweat was hidden on his forehead and temples. The incense burned out under the eyes of everyone. Wang Xiaozhen failed to express the second couplet, and Zhuangzhuang bowed and said, "Mr. Wang, I'll give in."
