As soon as Kong Yu finished speaking, the housekeeper walked over quickly and whispered a few words in Kong Yu's ear. Kong Yu nodded slightly and the housekeeper gave three high-fives. Several oil lamps in the living room of Kong's house were extinguished, and the light flickered. At this time,

, melodious music sounded, and several beautifully dressed women in green gauze walked into the living room, and danced to the music in the center of the living room.

The blue gauze skirt accompanied by the melodious music makes people feel like they are in a fairyland. It seems that they are not at a night banquet at the Confucius Mansion, but at the Queen Mother's peach feast, drinking wine in Xiangzhuang and watching intoxicatedly.

When he was looking at the dancers in front of him, a young girl wearing a white gauze skirt fluttered into the group of several dancers and danced with them.

The light in the room gradually became brighter, and the oil lamps that had just been extinguished were lit one after another. The girl in the white gauze skirt suddenly turned sideways and danced gracefully, but several maids came over, holding a piece of white silk.

The white silk hovered over the dancers for a moment, then was pulled away again and headed towards where the guests were having a banquet.

Xiang Zhuang was already drunk. He looked carefully and saw that the woman in white had stopped dancing. The women in green who had just danced quietly left without knowing when. The melodious music in his ears gradually approached.

end……

The white silk was spread horizontally. Xiang Zhuang looked around and saw that at some point, there were four large characters on the originally clean silk, which read, "Strengthen my mountains and rivers."

The fonts were like flowing clouds and flowing water, with a hint of strength in their softness. Xiang Zhuang couldn't help but praise him. When he looked at where the dancers were dancing, a basin filled with ink was placed there, and the girl who was wearing a white skirt had already arrived.

When he came to Kong Yu's side, there were obvious ink marks on the hem of his skirt. Xiang Zhuang thought quickly in his mind, could it be that she waved these words with the hem of her skirt?

Everything was so incredible, Xiang Zhuang was still immersed in surprise, but the woman was already sitting next to Kong Kun, smiling softly and said: "Mr. Xiang, we meet again."

So it was her? Xiang Zhuang finally recognized that the person in front of him was Kong Xiuyun, Kong Kun's daughter, his unmarried wife. She did not wear heavy makeup tonight, and her elegant attire made her even more attractive.

Xiang Zhuang straightened his clothes, stood up and said with a smile: "Xiang Zhuang, I have met Miss Kong."

"Young Master Xiang, you don't have to be polite."

Xiang Zhuang remembered Kong Xiuyun's beautiful dance just now, and couldn't help but feel good. With the help of wine, he picked up the red shadow given to him by his uncle, got up and walked to the center of the living room. He laughed and said: "Since Miss Kong is willing to sing and dance for Xiang,

I will also turn my sword into a dance and dedicate it to the girl."

Xiang Zhuang used his left hand hard, and the red shadow was instantly unsheathed. The scabbard was thrown aside. Xiang Zhuang jumped up and danced wildly in the hall, chanting loudly: "Wearing the emperor's armor of the God of War, holding a cold electric silver tassel in his hand."

, the force is as strong as the broken bamboo, the energy is as strong as the rainbow, the mountains and rivers are moved to show the majesty, the Penglai Island is alone, the true hero passes through the pass and beheads the generals!

...

The wine dispersed until late at night. Zhang Buyi and Wei Jiu had already left. Because Xiang Zhuang was greedy for alcohol and got drunk, he had to stay temporarily in the guest room of the Confucius Mansion. But just when the door of the Confucius Mansion was about to close, Zhou

The concierge of the city government hurriedly came to Confucius Mansion with a middle-aged man.

Kong Yu was sipping tea at this time, holding a bamboo slip in his hand, turning it over intentionally or unintentionally. However, in his mind, Kong Yu was thinking about the poem that Xiang Zhuang read during the sword dance today, "Strive to move the mountains and rivers to show your majesty, and go to Penglai alone."

Island, the real hero who has passed the pass and killed the general!' From this poem, Kong Yu can feel that Xiang Zhuang is definitely not an ordinary person.

Just when Kong Yu was thinking wildly, there was a rapid knock on the door. Kong Yu looked slightly unhappy and asked, "What's the matter?"

"Master, someone from the Xiang family is here. They want to see Xiang Zhuang." This was the voice of the housekeeper. Kong Yu was puzzled, why did the Xiang family come to visit late at night? With doubts, Kong Yu stood up, put the bamboo slips on the table, and ordered

Said: "Take him to the study to wait for me."

In the study, Xiang Sheng was waiting anxiously. He had arrived in Suiyang this afternoon, but he asked everywhere but could not find Xiang Zhuang's whereabouts. It was not until after sunset that he learned about Xiang Zhuang's whereabouts from Zhou Mansion, and found out about Xiang Zhuang's whereabouts in Zhou Mansion.

Under the guidance of the concierge, we arrived at the Confucius Mansion, but by this time, the night was already very deep.

Just as Xiang Sheng was pacing back and forth, hurried footsteps sounded outside the door. Soon, Kong Yu's figure appeared in the living room, cupping his hands and smiling: "May I ask who you are...?"

Xiang Sheng hurriedly returned the gift: "I have a family member in the Xiang Mansion, with the surname Xiang and the reputation."

When Kong Yu heard that he was indeed a family member of the Xiang Mansion, he smiled and said, "I am Kong Yu. I wonder what important business you have coming to visit late at night?"

Xiang Sheng hesitated for a moment, but he still didn't trust Kong Kun, so he had to report: "I have an urgent matter and want to see Mr. Zhuang. Please make it easier for me."

"Xiang Zhuang drank too much today, and I'm afraid... I can't get up now." Kong Yu looked a little embarrassed, but Xiang Sheng said anxiously: "Please help me, wake up Mr. Zhuang, I have something urgent to report here.

.”

Seeing that Xiang Sheng was really anxious, Kong Yu had no choice but to call the housekeeper and ordered: "Go and call Xiang Zhuang."

"But Xiangzhuang has drunk too much, and he's afraid he won't be able to get up." The housekeeper looked a little embarrassed, and Kong Yu said angrily: "Go if you are told, and find a way to wake him up, and tell him that someone from the Xiang family is here. If there is something urgent, come to him.

.”

The butler Nuonuo left. Kong Kun pointed at the soft seat and said with a smile: "You are tired from the journey, please sit down first."

Xiang Sheng cupped his hands and thanked him. As soon as he sat down, Kong Yu smiled and said, "I wonder why you came here late at night and how did you get into the city?"

Xiang Sheng looked a little embarrassed and said with a smile: "I came here in the afternoon, but I just found out the whereabouts of Mr. Zhuang."

Kong Yu nodded slightly and said no more. There was a brief silence in the room. I don't know how long it took, but there was a faint sound of rapid footsteps from outside the door. Soon, Xiang Zhuang walked into the living room with sleepy eyes. He had indeed drank a lot of wine today.

, at this time, he had a splitting headache, but the housekeeper told him that there was something urgent, so Xiang Zhuang endured the headache and hurried over. As soon as he entered the house, he saw Xiang Sheng not far away, and he was surprised, why was he here?

?

When Xiang Sheng saw Xiang Zhuang, he couldn't help but be overjoyed. He stood up in a hurry, took out the letter from his arms, handed it to Xiang Zhuang, and said urgently: "Master Zhuang, leave Suiyang as soon as possible, and don't come back to Xiangxiang again."

Xiang Zhuang ignored Xiang Sheng. He glanced at the letter and quickly read the letter. At this time, he already understood Xiang Sheng's so-called emergency. It turned out that something happened to the Xiang family!

The letter was written by the third uncle Xiang Bo. The letter clearly stated that the Xiang family was falsely accused and everyone was forced to abscond. However, the second uncle Xiang Liang had been arrested by the government and was on his way to Xianyang. Xiang Bo clearly stated that, let

Xiang Zhuang concealed his name as soon as possible to avoid the limelight and avoid being arrested by the government. More importantly, Xiang Zhuang was reminded that he was not allowed to return to Xiaxiang County again.

The letter slipped from Xiang Zhuang's hand and fell to the ground. After a short silence, Xiang Zhuang walked up to Kong Kun, knelt down on one knee, and said helplessly: "Something happened in the Xiang family. I'm afraid that my wedding with Miss Kong will be delayed.

Please forgive me, Uncle Kong."

Kong Yu leaned over and picked up the letter on the ground, read it hastily, pulled up Xiang Zhuang who was kneeling in front of him, and sighed softly: "The Xiang family is in trouble, how can I just sit back and ignore it? You get up first."

Xiang Zhuang stood up, and Kong Kun asked with concern: "What are you going to do next?"

Xiang Zhuang thought for a while and sighed: "I'm going to leave the city first."

"It's late at night, the city gate is closed, you can't get out." Kong Yu sighed, waving his hands, but Xiang Zhuang insisted: "If I don't leave, I might harm the Kong family."

Kong Yu looked slightly displeased and scolded: "What are you talking about! Since I am willing to betroth my daughter to you, how can I ignore you? Who do you think I, Kong Yu, am?"

"Uncle Kong, please forgive me." Xiang Zhuang knew he had made a mistake, so he had to apologize. Kong Kun waved his hand and motioned for Xiang Zhuang and Xiang Sheng to sit down. At this time, the maids brought tea and placed it in front of everyone before leaving. The housekeeper originally thought

He retreated with the maid, but Kong Kun grabbed the housekeeper and told him: "Prepare a room for the Xiang family, and let him stay in the guest room tonight."

The housekeeper nodded and left. Xiang Sheng stood up and thanked him. Kong Kun waved his hand and said no. After a brief silence, Kong Kun finally spoke: "Now, the Xiang family is in trouble. How can I ignore it? If you are willing to listen to me, during this period,

You might as well take refuge in my Kong family, I will keep you safe."

Xiang Zhuang felt a warmth in his heart, but his second uncle was captured and taken to Xianyang. Xiang Zhuang was very anxious. If he didn't try to rescue his second uncle, the consequences would be disastrous. He stood up, clasped his fists, and refused: "Uncle, I am willing to let Xiang Zhuang stay tonight.

Xiang Zhuang is very grateful, but my uncle was arrested and taken to Xianyang. I feel really uneasy. I must leave at dawn tomorrow."

"Where are you going after you leave Suiyang?" Kong Kun asked with concern.

"My second uncle, Xiang Liang, has an old friend in Qixian County with whom I have a deep relationship. I am going to visit my old friend to seek help and try to rescue my second uncle."

Kong Kun was deeply moved by Xiang Zhuang's filial piety and righteousness. He couldn't persuade him anymore, so he just sighed softly and said: "If you have any difficulties, you can come to me at any time, and I will definitely help."

"Thank you, Uncle Kong." Xiang Zhuang and Xiang Sheng stood up together, clasping fists to thank each other.

"Go to rest early, we have to travel tomorrow." Kong Kun told him, then he got up and walked to the living room.

...

In the back house of Kong Mansion, Kong Kun walked heavily and walked for a while before he could reach the east courtyard. However, the Xiang family was suddenly in trouble and his marriage was delayed. Kong Kun was hesitant. Should he tell his daughter? In this matter, Kong Kun

He knew that his daughter had the right to know everything, but he was worried that would it be difficult for her to accept the reality?

In this way, Kong Yu walked carelessly. Soon, melodious music was faintly heard in the distance. Kong Yu couldn't help but stop and listen carefully. This was coming from Kong Xiuyun's yard.

It was so late and his daughter didn't even sleep. Kong Kun couldn't help but walk slowly towards his daughter's yard.

When the maid saw Kong Yu, she hurriedly went inside to report. The music stopped abruptly, and Kong Xiuyun hurried out to greet him. She smiled and said, "It's so late. Is there anything wrong with father?"

"The moon is bright today, I want to chat with you." Kong Yu said with a smile.

His father rarely came to his place late at night, and besides, his face was ugly. Kong Xiuyun vaguely guessed something. He read a trace of worry from his father's expression, and said with a smile: "Father, please sit inside the house."

"No, it's so late, I won't go into the house." Kong Kun waved his hand, took his daughter, came to the small stool in the courtyard and sat down. Looking at the moon in the sky, Kong Kun smiled and said: "Life is like stars in the sky, disappearing from time to time."

Time comes, and many things will have their own laws and will not go as people wish."

Kong Xiuyun heard what Kong Kun was saying and couldn't help but asked cautiously: "Father, has something happened?"

Kong Kun really didn't want to hide his daughter, so he could only sigh: "Something happened to the Xiang family, your marriage to Xiang Zhuang..."

"No!" Kong Xiuyun suddenly stood up and said anxiously: "He can't regret the marriage!"

Kong Kun saw that his daughter had misunderstood, so he had to stand up, pat her shoulder gently, and comforted her: "He did not regret the marriage, it's just that... he has to leave for a while."

"Why?"
