Wang Zhen's unconventional thinking ability and one-handed flying knife skills impressed everyone, and even Xie Daoyun's two brothers congratulated Wang Qian. Xie Daoyun didn't say anything, but Wang Zhen easily solved her problem, and she was also full of joy. Xie An ordered a new robe to be brought from the treasury and put on the king.

At this time, the butler in charge of the kitchen in Xie Mansion came in to announce that the luncheon was ready. Xie An ordered a banquet, everyone took their seats in order, and the royal seat was arranged behind Steward Zhang and facing Xie Daoyun.

On the opposite side is Xie Daoyun, Wang Zhen is very happy and wants to talk to Xie Daoyun. However, the rules of the Xie family are very strict, and the children of the Xie family all sit with their heads bowed, and Xie Daoyun did not take care of the king. Steward Zhang next to him looked at the little couple in his eyes and laughed secretly.

During the banquet, Xie An asked Wang Qian: "Wang Qian, do you know what I tested you in the second game?" ”

As a sign of respect, Wang Zhen put down his chopsticks, put his hand on his thigh, looked at Xie An, who was sitting on the main seat, and said, "My lord's second exam is not to test my archery skills, but to test my character. If I were the kind of person who would do whatever it took to achieve my goals, even if I had shot an apple, I would never have given Miss Xie the right to me. This is a trap set by adults for me: winning is losing, losing is winning! I wasn't quite sure, so I thought about it for a long time. In addition, I admire the extraordinary courage of the adult under it. If it were me, I wouldn't dare stand next to the target with an apple in my hand. ”

Xie An laughed and said, "It is precisely because you have thought about it for a long time that I can see your cleverness and sincerity to my niece." Okay, I'll admit your niece and son-in-law! ”

Everyone laughed, Xie Daoyun was happy and a little shy, and his cheeks were red.

Zhang Xuan said with a smile: "Since the adults in the service have said so, then this family business is decided!" Wang Zhen has no relatives in the world, so the Zhang family will be a man's family. When I went back, I asked a professional matchmaker to go through the process of the three books and six rituals, what did the waiter think? ”

Xie An said: "Very good! I'm okay with that. Then there is Lao Zhangxian's nephew! ”

Wang Zhen got what he wanted, and smiled at Xie Daoyun opposite.

Back at Zhang's Manor, Zhang Tongyun jumped out like a magpie to inquire about the results. Wang Zhen told her that the proposal had been successful, and then Wang Zhen shook Zhang Xuan, Zhang Tongyun, the housekeeper, Tang Qiu and others to the ground, thanking them for their help more or less.

Zhang Xuan waved his hand to tell Wang Zhen not to be polite, and then turned to the housekeeper and asked, "Butler, what should you do next?" ”

The housekeeper said: "As long as Wang Zhen leaves the eight characters of his birthday, the remaining three books and six ceremonies can be handed over to the matchmaker and me to do." On an auspicious day, the king will come to the door to marry. As for the banquet, Wang Qian, where are you going to do it? You decide, and I'll help you prepare. ”

Wang Zhen said: "Steward Zhang, wait for me to discuss the birthday with the sworn brother before giving it to you." Because I don't have relatives and I don't have many friends, I plan to hold a banquet in my new home, and the Xie family is an official family, I don't know if I can accept it? ”

The butler said, "It's all up to you!" About the banquet, when the matchmaker and I go to the Xie family to make a gift, I will help you ask the Xie family's thoughts and requirements. ”

Wang Zhen said: "Then Wang Zhen thanked Steward Zhang first!" ”

Zhang Xuan said: "If you really can't do it, let's do it here, since I got married, there has been no celebration here for a long time." ”

Zhang Tongyun quipped: "Brother, do you have any crooked ideas?" ”

Zhang Xuan said: "What crooked ideas can I have? I just want to marry you off. ”

Zhang Tongyun pouted and said, "Brother, I'm only seventeen years old, why are you in such a hurry to marry me!" ”

Everyone laughed.

Wang Zhen said goodbye to Zhang Xuan and others, came to Qingxu's residence, and explained the process of proposing marriage to Qingxu and his wife, and Qingxu and his wife were happy for Wang Qian.

The king asked, "Big brother, what should I do with this birthday?" I was a man a hundred years ago. ”

Qingxu thought for a moment and said, "Brother, relax!" It's not that hard to do. The question was done in the man's house, and the Taoist priest was invited to come to the door to calculate whether the birth date of the man and woman could be married, and what the good luck would be in the future. This one will be a brother! Wait a minute, I'll tell Steward Zhang, saying that your birthday is placed here with me, and our Taoist rule is that you have to see the woman's Geng post to report the man's birthday. After the housekeeper and matchmaker go to the ceremony and invite the woman back to the post, I will make up a birthday eight characters for my brother that are not in conflict with Miss Xie's birthday and are suitable for marriage. Brother, do you think this will work? ”

Wang Qianxi said: "Very good, just do what the eldest brother said!" Since this is the case, I also bothered my eldest brother to make up a birthday eight characters for me to marry Miss Xie as soon as possible, so as not to have too many dreams at night. ”

Qingxu said: "Brother, don't worry, you will do it well for your brother!" ”

Wang questioned Mrs. Qingxu: "Sister-in-law, if the eldest brother cheats you on your birthday, will you be angry?" ”

Mrs. Qingxu smiled: "No! What I like is your eldest brother, not his birthday; I live with your eldest brother, not with his birthday! ”

Wang Zhen smiled with relief: "That's good!" Anyway, I'll only lie to her once or twice. ”

Mrs. Qingxu smiled: "Just be good to her!" There are still a long days to come! ”

Wang Zhen returned home, took advantage of the excitement to practice his fists, kicks and flying knives in the middle of the night, and took a shower and came to the terrace on the second floor of the main house for cooling. Wang Zhen sat on the rocking chair and looked at the starry sky, remembered Xie Daoyun's voice and smile, and said to himself: "There will be a hostess here soon!" ”

Early the next morning, Wang Zhen put on his errand clothes and rushed back to Jianwei Mansion to report. Wang Zhen thought that he had come early, but the military officials had already been assembled, and they had received the task and dispersed.

Wang Zhen found Qin Bantou and said apologetically: "Qin Bantou, I'm sorry!" I'm late! ”

Qin Bantou waved his hand and said, "No! You came early. It was a sudden mission from above, so the others were called back at five or three o'clock to assemble. ”

Wang Zhen hurriedly asked, "What is the task?" ”

Qin Bantou approached Wang Zhi's ear and whispered: "The emperor is obsessed with longevity, he only takes pills and doesn't eat, he was paralyzed by the pill last night, and now he can't move his hands and feet, and he can't speak." The imperial court ordered the whole city to search for and poison the emperor's Taoist priest Fang Lu overnight. ”

The king asked, "Will this Fang Lu escape from the city?" ”

Qin Bantou said: "No! The twelve gates were closed last night. Early this morning, Fang Lu's portrait had been distributed to all city gates, and the people who left the city were checked one by one. ”

Wang Zhen was thinking about it, and Qin Bantou said: "You are new and inexperienced, when a colleague comes back after a while, I will arrange for them to take you!" You were brought in by Lord Liu, and since you are back on an errand, go to the hall to say hello to Lord Liu and say hello! By the way, how did you propose? Did the girl say yes? ”

Wang Zhen smiled: "Thank you Qin Bantou for your concern!" The girl agreed, and is preparing for the marriage! ”

Qin Bantou nodded and said, "That's good!" The young man will grow up when he becomes a family, and he will look like a man. Okay, let's go meet Master Liu! ”

Wang Zhen said goodbye to Qin Bantou and came to the hall of the yatang, and Liu Xun was sitting in front of the official case to review the official documents.
