Chapter 57: Silence

"Master Xu, are you looking for me?"

Zhou Zemin came to Xu Tian's office.

"Student Zhou, sit."

Xu Tian cordially motioned for him to sit down opposite, "It's not a big deal for me to come to you this time, it's just that I heard a rumor recently, and I'm more interested, so I want to ask you." ”

"Master Xu, but it doesn't hurt to say."

Zhou Zemin pursed his lips and said.

"Hmm." Xu Tian looked at this student who usually had no sense of existence, and always felt that he seemed a little wary.

Maybe I also knew in advance that Zeng Yihuai's parents went to the house to find him?

Knowing that he couldn't ask too directly, he knocked on the side and said, "I heard others say that the fifth prince has something to do with Zeng Yihuai's death?" You have a good relationship with the Five Princes, you should know some inside stories, right? ”

Zhou Zemin pondered for a moment and said, "Master Xu, I don't know much about this matter. As far as I know, Zeng Yihuai died suddenly on his own. ”

Xu Tianmo rubbed his chin, his starry eyes were bright, he didn't speak, just stared at his hairline.

Although in terms of age, Zhou Zemin is eighteen years old, two years older than Xu Tian, who is a teacher, but for some reason, Xu Tian's clear eyes and calm eyes make him have an illusion as if he has been seen through, which makes him feel furious in his heart, and he subconsciously turned his gaze away, but his tone was quite calm, and said: "Master Xu, do you also believe the rumors from the outside world?" ”

Xu Tianmo's chin movement stopped, narrowed his eyes slightly, and said: "No wind and no waves, as a teacher, as the head of the first school of Tianzun Academy, and even more as a courtier of Dalan Tianzi, when I heard the rumors about the unfavorable five princes in this court, naturally I can't sit idly by, at least I have to have the right to know, right?" ”

Zhou Zemin thought about it for a while, and said a little embarrassed: "But Master Xu, the student thinks that you should leave this matter alone......

It can be seen that this Zhou Zemin still admires Principal Xu who rescued the suffering, but this is a kind reminder to remind him not to meddle in his affairs?

Xu Tian smiled, looking at Zemin's reaction this week, it was basically certain that the matter of the fifth prince was true.

continued to probe: "Zhou Zemin, Zeng Yihuai and the Fifth Prince are friends, and the relationship with you is also very good, do you know the reason why the Fifth Prince and Zeng Yihuai are friends?" ”

Zhou Zemin didn't look over: "Master Xu, don't ask, I don't know anything." ”

Xu Tian was silent for a moment before he said, "Okay, you go back first." ”

At this stage, he is still unclear about Zhou Zemin's details, and if he is not sure, it is obviously impossible to persuade him to come out and testify against the five princes.

Under this preliminary spying, he was even more sure that this Zhou Zemin was not so easy to break through.

"Then Master Xu, I'll go back first."

Zhou Zemin immediately got up and hurriedly said goodbye and left.

In the huge and bright office, Xu Tian was left alone and sighed.

"Well, it's not that easy......"

To make Zhou Zemin, the only witness, stand up, it really takes a lot of effort.

……

"What did you say?"

As soon as Zhou Zemin came back, the fifth prince asked him about the content of his trip to the principal's house, "Xu Tian really asked about this matter?" ”

"yes."

Zhou Zemin nodded, "He seems to really know." ”

"So...... Old man Zeng's family really went to look for him......"

The fifth prince's brows were habitually slightly tightened, and his eyeliner had already told him that the old man Zeng's family had gone to Xu Tian for help.

The fifth prince had a bad premonition in his heart, and asked, "What else did he ask you?" ”
