Travel through Shen Meizhuang to open the system and walk sideways in the harem

The maid was neither humble nor arrogant, she bowed and said:

"My lady, my daughter's couplet is: lonely and widowed."

As soon as this first couplet came out, everyone present fell into deep thought. Because this first couplet was more difficult than the previous one, it not only required neat parallelism, but also conformed to the artistic conception and rhythm. Many people tried to come up with the second couplet, but none of them could achieve a perfect result.

Shen Meimei looked at the people thinking hard and was secretly happy. She knew that this first couplet was one of the best in history and it was not easy to come up with a perfect second couplet.

Unfortunately, no matter how difficult the pair was, she could quickly find the answer by just checking it on her phone. She said softly:

"The second line is easy too, melancholy, worry, fear and recollection! These are all from the heart, and the emotions contained are probably also a portrayal of your daughter's psychology, right?"

"Wonderful!"

"This lady is full of ideas, I admire her!" A middle-aged man in his forties, who was a bit dark but had a very loud voice.

The emperor saw this and asked, "Excuse me, who are you?"

The young man bowed and said, "I am Zheng Xie, from Yangzhou. I make a living by selling paintings. Today I came to Hangzhou to meet with friends. I heard that the Eight Immortals Tower is absolutely amazing, so I came here to take a look. Hangzhou is indeed a place where hidden dragons and crouching tigers are hidden. I admire you!"

Shen Meimei listened to him introduce himself and thought about it. She had never heard of this in history, so she didn't take it too seriously.

At this time, the middle-aged man's friend came over and shouted to him: "Banqiao, hurry up, the dishes have been ordered, hurry over and eat!"

"Zheng Banqiao? Are you Zheng Banqiao?" Shen Meimei exclaimed. He was a famous Qing Dynasty scholar, calligrapher and painter, and also a representative figure of the Eight Eccentrics of Yangzhou.

"Madam, do you know me?" Zheng Xie asked curiously.

Shen Meimei shook her head, "I don't know you, I just think your name is very special!"

Soon, the maid from the sixth floor came down and bowed, saying:

"My young lady invited Madam to come upstairs for a chat. She said that it is very rare to find such a talented person in this world. Today, she specially invited Madam to come upstairs and prepared some wine for her!"

Shen Meimei looked at the emperor and declined to the maid:

"No need, the master and I can have dinner on the fifth floor. There's no need to trouble your daughter! Women have a hard time, so please ask her to take good care of herself!"

After she finished speaking, she was led by the restaurant owner to a window seat on the fifth floor.

Soon, a table of delicious food was served. The emperor looked at the southern delicacies with great interest. He was in a good mood. "Madam, you really opened my eyes today. How did you come up with such a difficult couplet?"

It turned out that the emperor was still thinking about the couplet. In the future, I should be more low-key. It would be a big taboo to be too prominent and lose the emperor's face.

She quickly picked up some food for the emperor and replied with a smile:

"Your Majesty, this couplet is something that girls in the boudoir can relate to. I am also a girl, so I can come up with a couplet like this! Master, how can a man like you come up with a couplet like this?"

Zhen Yuan said: "Your Majesty, what the Imperial Noble Consort said is absolutely right! I am old, and I can't get it right either. I am so ashamed!"

As they were talking, someone knocked on the door. Su Peisheng became alert and quickly got up and went out.

As soon as he opened the door, he saw the maid of the girl on the sixth floor and asked curiously, "I wonder what else your girl wants?"

The maid bowed slightly and called towards the door:

"My daughter is here to see you, Madam. Please open the door and see her!"
