That year, although Xiao Yan did not officially ascend the throne as emperor with great fanfare, he still called himself King Xiao. But that year, in the end, was called the first year of the Eastern Zhou Dynasty.

In the winter of the first year of the Eastern Zhou Dynasty, King Xiao brought back a woman when he came back from Anyang in the Western Zhou Dynasty. Everyone knows that she is a woman given to King Xiao by the King of Lingnan in the Western Zhou Dynasty, and she is the sister of the emperor in terms of seniority, and she is also a princess, named Qingqing.

Only Xiao Chenyi's close guards knew that in fact, his own king didn't just bring back a woman!

Xiao Chenyi's close guards are all loyal, but they have been with their own king for so long, although their own king is handsome, but it is true that he has never been close to a woman for so many years.

In that dynasty, it was popular to offer beauties, especially when the king of his own family had just ascended the throne, and many local forces were vying to offer beauties, nominally to enrich the harem for King Xiao, but in fact they just wanted to consolidate their status and strengthen their relations.

However, the kings of their own family returned them one by one, so that many people even sent men later......

It's really not true!

In fact, although King Xiao is not close to women, there are still two girls in the palace. It's all a bit hard to say. This is known only to their close guards.

For example, one of them is the Lord of Zifeng County. The former is the youngest daughter of King Lu. He killed her father, her mother, and her people, and took her father's throne instead. It is said that on the night of the riot, the lord of Zifeng County was abducted and ravaged by a mob while wandering the streets. After that, my mind was a little unclear, sometimes my mind was clear, sometimes my mind was confused, and I was crazy and stupid.

I don't know if Xiao Chenyi was a little guilty, he imprisoned her in the palace and arranged for the palace maid to take care of her. Occasionally, I would go and check it out. The doctor diagnosed and treated him.

But maybe it's for some other reason. The close guards admired Xiao Yan very much, how could their king's intentions be easily guessed.

The other is a folk woman. It is said to be the wife of King Xiao. The king went to heaven and earth to turn over the land of Qilu, Zhanjiang and Yong'an, and found this girl named Qin Qingrou.

What's worse is that this girl is also a little mentally ill, demented, and refuses to admit Xiao Yan when she says anything. So King Xiao had no other way, so he could only be imprisoned in the palace for the time being, and arranged for the palace maids to serve him. I would sit down when I had nothing to do, but this girl always had a cold face, and she didn't talk if she could.

In the eyes of these personal guards, everything is good and his appearance is not bad, but why is this marriage ...... Both of them had almost worshiped heaven and earth, but now they were either crazy and stupid and didn't recognize him, or they were demented and refused to recognize him......

Now it's good, the personal guards now think of this matter, and even the journey back to Zhuozhou is extremely brisk. However, King Xiao ordered not to say anything about this matter, otherwise it would be killed.

King Xiao said that if you don't talk about killing, then you will really kill people. So you can't talk about it everywhere, you can only steal it. That is, another girl brought back by the king of his own family this time...... The close guards felt that this one had a play.

Sure enough, I'm here to collect love debts! At that time, Xiao Chenyi listened to the report of his subordinates, as well as the vivid imitation, and said, "Xiao Chenyi, come out quickly!" "It has already made the king hurry. At that time, looking at the king's footsteps and expression, the close guards quickly exchanged glances with each other, and they all nodded deeply and sighed in tacit understanding, "Ah! Sure enough, he came to collect debts. ”

It is said that it is a good thing to have a woman to ask him for a love debt. This king lives too lonely.

It is said that the person on the top is either a lonely family or a widow, but since ancient times, that widow is not a harem beautie, they are kings...... A little chilling.

So everyone is very optimistic about this woman who came to ask for "love debts". What's more, she still looks so beautiful.

The beautiful debt collector was carried out of the dungeon by their king that day.

The subordinates were silent in the back, and their faces were bloodless, and they felt that they had caused a big disaster.

But the king did not punish them, but was busy taking care of the girl in the dungeon, and three days later ordered the dungeon guards to be punished.

The subordinates exhaled slightly, and put their hearts back in their stomachs one by one.

Their king is still very sensible. Without knowing it, it is not wrong to suspect that it is an assassin and be locked in a dungeon, and the so-called ignorant are not guilty. But he didn't say he was going to abuse this girl when he was locked up in the dungeon, and the dungeon guards were too bad at being human.

The dungeon guard was given fifty boards, and when he was brought back, he was already dying. But who told him not to be optimistic about the direction of the wind? Since people want to stand in line, they must dare to take the risk of taking sides. Deserve!

King Xiao's close guards did not have any mercy for the dungeon steward, and even complained that he almost affected them by acting like this, thanks to the king's sage. So he set up the board, and there was no mercy at all, but it was a little more aggravated. Originally, like them, who only stood on their own king, was the right way.

The guards, who thought they had taken the right path, hurried very briskly, and arrived in Zhuozhou in a few days.

This is Shen Yuan's second visit to Zhuozhou, the difference is that this time it was Xiao Chenyi who brought her here.

The palace of the Eastern Zhou Dynasty has been overhauled and rebuilt as early as half a year ago, and now it is even more magnificent, not inferior to the imperial palace in the Yong'an capital of that year.

On the second day of Xiao Chenyi's return, Rao is personal guards were strict, and everyone else already knew that King Xiao was now following a Shen girl.

King Xiao treats this Shen girl very unusually. For example, when he was discussing with his cronies in the study, there would never be outsiders in the past, not even a maid who brought tea and water. Now it is this Shen girl who is by her side.

provoked these courtiers to speculate for a while, thinking that this was a confidant found by the king. It is a good thing that the king can have a caring person who knows the cold and the hot, but he has a marriage contract with the emperor of the Western Zhou Dynasty. If you tear your face with Xizhou...... Oh! Or maybe this is a good reason to tear his face with Xizhou? And does the king want to wait for Xi Zhou to tear his face first?

The courtiers thought about it, but they couldn't come up with any reason. Xiao Chenyi covered Shen Yuan tightly, and there was no leakage, and there was no way to find out the details of this Shen girl outside.

According to the views of Xiao Chenyi's close guards, these courtiers are really worried. However, only these close guards know that their king and this Shen girl have always treated each other politely, and there is no husband and wife.

This really made these close guards of his mind puzzled.

The king has less and less time to discuss matters these days, which is a good thing, forcing these ministers to be more and more efficient. After the quick discussion, the king naturally wanted to go to Miss Shen's side.

Then two people sit together, and it is a big day. It seems that there are endless words and endless things to do.

The personal guards have always secretly protected the king, and Miss Shen also knows it, so what the two of them do as personal guards can be seen and heard. This is the duty and the king's consent.

Originally, these personal guards were still a little interested, all of them had a gossip straight old heart, thinking that now that there is Miss Shen, the king and the beautiful woman together, how embarrassed they should be to be personal guards, especially secret guards.

As a result, after a few days, they found that Wang Shang and Miss Shen really didn't do anything that made people blush and heartbeat.

The two of them are either drinking tea and chatting or playing chess.

Only a few times did the silent guards feel that something else seemed unusual.

Once, the two of them had been playing chess for several days when they came back from Yong'an, and on this day, the king suddenly brought Miss Shen a basket over.

These personal guards know this, and King Xiao searched all over Qilu to find such a musical instrument that is said to have been passed down for a hundred years. It is the hand of Nangong Jin, the eldest son of the Nangong family, a musical instrument family from Min Xiang. It can be called the world's first Konghou.

Back then, the king inadvertently helped the Nangong family escape a catastrophe, and Nangong Jin promised the king a promise that no matter when he was in the future, he could agree to King Xiao's request, and any request would do. After all, the Nangong family did their best.

This is a promise, but it is very expensive. The Nangong family is not only famous for making violins. Min Xiang is a rich place adjacent to Qilu in the south of Zhanjiang, and the Nangong family has been entrenched for hundreds of years, and its local prestige is prudent.

The meaning of his promise is already very obvious.

However, Xiao Yan did not wait for the future to one day, and had a plan for the great cause. But he only thought about it for a moment, and his expression seemed to remember something extremely happy, and his rare expression was not so cold. Then Nangong Jin listened to Xiao Yan and said, "I heard that the musical instruments of the Nangong family are very rare, I don't know if I can ask for a gong hou again?" ”

Nangong Jin: "...... Oh! Could it be that Brother Xiao is so happy? ”

About a family that makes musical instruments, they are all interested in music. Nangong Jin is full of interest and wants to talk, fantasizing that he may be able to confide in him.

As a result, Xiao Yan said simply, "It's not good, and it won't." ”

Nangong Jin: "...... Oh. ”

Then he looked up uncomfortably and asked, "Brother Xiao wants to use this promise I gave in exchange for a gonghou?" ”

Xiao Yan nodded, a little worried, "Isn't it okay?" ”

"Okay, okay, of course." Nangong Jin was inexplicably a little proud. Is your own craftsmanship already mortgaged to the world? Delusion, it must be an illusion.

After Xiao Chenyi got this Konghou, it was stored in the study and never taken out.

The close guards had almost forgotten about it.

Who would have thought that on this day, the king would order to take this Konghou and put it in Miss Shen's room.

The close guards were a little excited, and felt that their own king was enlightened, knew how to get along with girls, and couldn't always play chess, engage in some music or something, and was more suitable for talking about Fengyue.

Xiao Chenyi waited close to him, and there were no maidservants, and all the affairs were taken care of by these guards. The close guards felt that it would be bad for us big men to be clumsy this time, and it would be bad if we broke the Konghou collected by the king again.

So he found a reliable palace maid in the palace to move Konghou.

Shen Yuan's expression was very different when she saw Konghou, and she was stunned.

Then I saw Xiao Chenyi take out two pieces of paper from his arms, which were piano scores.

The hand holding the paper shook slightly.

This sheet of music was handed to her from him, and it took four spring and autumn periods.
