| 内容注記 | Appropriate door fits the frame of the correct house
Converting iron into gold
Inseparable as each other's shadows
Surpassing loveliness good enough to feast upon
Episode of a spring dream
Family ugliness should never be aired in public
Climbing a tree to seek for fish
Extend the same treatment to all
Inspired scholar in an enchanting land
Each day passes like a year
Original ideas in literary composition
Same bed, different dreams
Is anything impossible?
One lute, one crane
Fish swimming in a cauldron
One horse, single spear
Marry a chicken, follow a chicken
You plant melons, you reap melons
Hearts reduced to ashes
Scales and shells in the belly
Heaven-made union
Besieged by hostile forces on all sides
Coarse tea and plain rice
While drinking water, remember the source
Sever this kinship with one whack of the knife
Creating waves without wind
Near vermilion, one gets stained red; near ink, one gets stained black
You: Wine and meat friends
Headless and clueless case
Opened the door to salute the thief
Steal the bell while covering your ears
Falling leaves return to their roots
