The story of all starts from the eighth year of Yuankang.

It was the eighth year of the succession of Emperor Sima Zhen, and the power of the court had been controlled by the empress Jia Nanfeng and her father and brother, and the entire Chang'an County of Luoyang City was spreading that Jia Nanfeng was a good man, ignoring the foolish emperor at all, looking for men everywhere for his own fun.

Mu Zhaozhong, the musician of the Chunhong Mansion in Luoyang City.

In the early years, he was also a famous top brand, proficient in piano, chess, calligraphy and painting, and it took ten taels of gold to chat and drink tea for an hour.

But the years are not forgiving, and after the age of thirty, my face begins to collapse, and my body is becoming more and more deformed and obese.

Most men like him end up taking a sum of money and living in seclusion in the countryside.

But he is not reconciled, even if there is no sincere counterpart in this life, he must make some fame and cling to the powerful.

But what else could he do until now?

The old bustard of Chunhong Mansion did not dislike him on the surface, and arranged the position of the top musician for him, but he did not complain about his hypocrisy and persistence in private.

One day, a businessman-like man came to dinner, saw him behind the screen, and asked, "Are you the Mu Xiaolangjun fifteen years ago?" ”

When Mu Zhaozhong heard this, he trembled.

No one has called him like this for many years, and this "Mu Xiaolangjun" instantly pulled him back to the glorious years of wanton spending time and drinking.

"Don't call it that, this is already a thing of the past." Mu Zhaozhong lowered his head and grasped his shakuhachi tightly with both hands.

"Hahaha, it's you." The man laughed, "Fifteen years ago, I could only look at you from a distance, and I couldn't eat and talk to you. It's really fate to be able to meet it now. ”

Mu Zhaozhong looked at the person who came in bright clothes, with a strong body, and was about the same age as him.

Over the years, when his face has aged and his figure has been out of shape, has he heard less ridicule and ridicule?

Therefore, he didn't dare to answer casually, and still half-lowered his eyes.

This person looked very happy, and shouted to the old bustard that he wanted to open a separate room to drink tea and drink with Mu Zhaozhong.

When the bustard heard this, she smiled, anyway, there is money to be made, she doesn't care.

Mu Zhaozhong was a little apprehensive, but with so many years of experience in reading people, he felt that the noble person in front of him had no malicious intent, so he followed him into the room.

This person introduced himself straight to the point: Qin Fengyi, a native of Hanoi County, and a businessman.

Mu Zhaozhong listened as he tried his best to find out if he had ever seen this person in his memory. However, he was too popular back then, but he didn't remember too many people.

Qin Qiyi didn't say anything, just chatted with him. Because he had eaten wine and meat just now, he just drank some tea.

Since then, Qin Qiyi has come to Chunhong Mansion every once in a while, only drinking and eating tea with Mu Zhaozhong, and when he is in a good mood, he also lets Mu Zhaozhong play and sing.

Mu Zhao also has a very special skill - voice changing, that is, sometimes male voice, sometimes female voice, especially when chanting, it is even more free.

If you haven't seen his real person, you think it's two servants.

Of course, Qin Qianyi is very rich, although he will not spend a lot of money, but at least he has ten taels of gold for a meal, which is very arrogant.

Gradually, Mu Zhaozhong also opened his heart to him, and said those depressed complexes in his heart.

Qin Qiyi also sighed for him, and asked: "Mu Langjun's appearance is actually much stronger than ordinary people, if you are willing, I can introduce some women to you, and be their guest of the scene, and you can also be prosperous and rich." ”

“…… I'm afraid it won't last long, right? In this industry, Mu Zhaozhong has never seen anything, and he is still a little resistant when he hears this proposal. Although there were princesses and ladies in the previous dynasty who had such men to serve, they were all young Xiaolangjun, and it was completely impossible for him to be at his age.

"How do you know if you don't try? I think Mu Langjun's appearance is more mature and beautiful. Qin Huiyi's face was full of sincerity, and he suggested sincerely.

He was a man of action, and within three days, he asked him to go out. And in a mansion, he met a noblewoman.

This woman is not very tall, not beautiful, and even a little ugly.

He was covered with jewels, but the expression on his face was extremely mean and full of resentment.

Mu Zhaozhong just sat in the room, burning incense and stroking the piano for her, and in the soft and quiet tune, the woman actually fell asleep.

He didn't dare to make a sound, but continued to play the tune gently.

As the depth of her breathing sounded, the scale was adjusted. Later, it was not a song at all, just a vocal sound, as if it could touch the heart.

When the woman awoke, she simply got up and walked away.

At that time, Mu Zhaozhong was still a little flustered, and he didn't know if he had offended this woman. You know, if such a woman is really a powerful character, she can also kill him.

But five days later, Qin Qianyi called Mu Zhaozhong to this mansion again, and still asked him to play the qin.

The woman looked at him, and then folded her clothes and lay down, and fell asleep.

Three hours later, she still didn't say a word, and left him ten taels of gold.

This time, Mu Zhaozhong was not afraid, and even a little proud. For he could now be sure that the woman was pleased with herself, or rather with her skills.

Every three or five times, Mu Zhaozhong will come here to play the piano and play.

Although he was also very curious about the identity of this woman, he was calm and did not ask, say or publicize.

Even when the people from Chunhong Mansion asked, he just said that some friends came to Luoyang City, and he went to accompany him.

After many times, Qin Qianyi simply let him live here.

Mu Zhaozhong didn't live either, and returned to Chunhong Mansion after Fuqin.

A month later, instead of sleeping, the woman asked him to make tea and chatted with him about the score.

Mu Zhaozhong naturally coped with it easily, and played a very distant and quiet shakuhachi music, which made people relax and settle.

Seeing this, the woman's expression also relaxed, at least she was much less angry than when she first saw her.

After that, it was to be expected.

After all, he was born as an Israelite servant, and he was still extremely good at these things.

After a few clouds and rains, the woman suddenly said to him, "This house is given to you, and I have rewritten the deed." ”

For such a heroic person, Mu Zhaozhong was also stunned. Although this mansion is not in Luoyang City, according to this area and scale, as well as the decoration and decoration of the house, it is a residence that he cannot hope for in his life.

So, who is this woman?

"You are also a poor man, you have a place to live, and you can be considered to have settled in this life. Even without me in the future, you can still live and live well, right? When the woman laughed softly, her eyes were full of brightness, and it did not seem to be half false.

At that moment, Mu Zhaozhong's heart seemed to be kneaded by something, and his eyes were full of the appearance of this woman.
