Chapter 44: Students
Every year, the admission day of Guozijian is also the most lively time in Jinling City, and each family is eager to move their families when they send their children to school.
Guozijian is in Wisdom Square, in order to ensure the learning of the prisoners, there are no shops within a radius of five miles, and there are no hawkers to sell.
Luo Chen and Qin Shu sent Gao Zhen to school, and along the way, the people around looked at them and whispered.
This time, Gao Zhen did not change his appearance, considering that there were few people in Jinling City who knew his appearance, and he enrolled as Luo Jinchao.
"Tut, the second son's appearance, the master is really relieved." Qin Shu said.
Luo Chen said: "There are all men in the Guozi Prison, what is there to worry about the master." β
Qin Shu sighed a few times and said, "You are really innocent, forget it, just let me think about it." β
Gao Zhen listened to the conversation between the two, but did not answer, just silently tightened his fingers and comforted himself, "It's all over." β
There are a lot of new students this year, Guozijian sent the old students to answer, and after walking to the door, he didn't let the entourage follow up, Luo Chen handed the salute to Gao Zhen, and asked: "Second son, be careful, can you remember the code?" β
Gao Zhen nodded.
Qin Shu also entrusted, "Don't be reckless in everything, remember to use the code to find us in case of trouble." β
"Got it." Gao Zhen said, looking at the two people in front of him who were only two or three years older than him, but now they were as verbose as elders.
Gao Zhen turned around and went in and registered at the gate.
"Name?"
"Luo Jinchao."
The people from the Guozijian began to check the list, nodded, and said, "That's right, let's go in." β
As soon as Gao Zhen stepped into the threshold, the man next to him shouted with some excitement, "Ah, Ah Zhen? β
Gao Zhen couldn't believe that he would meet someone he knew here, and he turned his head slowly, and saw a face that he didn't want to see the most.
The man was the same height as Gao Zhen, but he was much stronger, dressed in brown clothes, lined with dark complexion, which made him a little fierce, but his face was extremely gentle, he was excited and puzzled, and called again: "Ah Zhen, is it you?" β
Gao Zhen turned his head and said coldly: "In Xia Luo, this Lang Jun recognized the wrong person. β
Then, without waiting for any answer, he walked straight into the Guozijian.
Luo Chen and Qin Shu, who had not yet gone far not far away, saw it clearly, and without Luo Qingzhi's approval, they had already verified the identity of the man and reported it to Luo Qingzhi.
"Zhou Jin, the only son of Lord Zhou Ze, the secretary of the Ministry of Industry, is also, once the companion of the second son, after the palace change, he returned home and cut off contact with the second son."
Luo Qingzhi was a little dazed, looked at the two people in front of her who were obviously anxious, puzzled, and asked, "So, what are you doing to find out what this person has done?" β
Qin Shu raised his voice a little and continued: "Master, there is obviously something wrong with the second son and Zhou Jin, and the way Zhou Jin looks at the second son is also very strange. β
Luo Qingzhi chuckled and asked, "Then let me ask you, did there any conflict occur at the gate of Guozijian?" β
"Nope." The two of them spoke in unison.
"Then, did Zhou Jin verbally insult Ah Chao?"
"Also...... No. Luo Chen said.
"So, I don't understand, you went to check on people privately, and you hurriedly came to ask me, what should I do, I really don't know what you are worried about." Luo Qingzhi said.
Qin Shu walked around in place, as if thinking about the wording, and said after a while, "Master, I can tell you very clearly that Zhou Jin's feelings for the second son are not ordinary. β
"Not ordinary?" Luo Qingzhi asked rhetorically, but Qin Shu didn't answer again.
Qin Shu has been by Luo Qingzhi's side for ten years, and has never said so firmly that a person has a problem, Luo Qingzhi thought about it and said: "Okay, I know, you continue to investigate this Zhou Jin's matter, and then, send a message to Ah Chao, don't be reckless when you encounter anything." β
"Yes."
Luo Chen and Qin Shu left Luo Qingzhi's study, Luo Chen exhaled, but Qin Shu still looked very worried.
"Hey, are you alright?" Luo Chen asked.
Qin Shu shook his head, but his brows were still tightly locked.
"Although, I also think that there should be a gap between the second son and that Zhou Jin in the past, but, in fact, I don't understand why you are so anxious and pull me to check him." Luo Chen said.
"Looks." Qin Shu said, "The way that person looks at the second son is the way a hunter looks at his prey." β
"What?" Luo Chen was even more puzzled, but Qin Shu was already reluctant to say more.
"I'll check Zhou Jin, you go and report the news." After Qin Shu finished assigning the task, he left the county lord's mansion directly.
In the Guozi Prison, Si Ye Qi Zhen is explaining the rules to everyone.
"When entering the National Prison, one must not skip class, two must not leave early, three must not insult the teacher, four must not leave the prison without reason, five must not fight and fight, six must not form a party for personal gain, and seven must not ......"
By the time Si Ye finished reciting the 48 rules, many students were a little unable to stand.
"Okay, let's start allocating dormitories."
"Luo Jinchao."
"The students are here." Gao Zhen raised his hand and replied.
"Zhou Jin."
"The students are here."
"You two in one room."
As soon as Si Ye's voice fell, Gao Zhen immediately raised his hand and said, "Si Ye, I want to change my bed." β
"Huh?" Qi Zhen frowned and scolded: "In the Guozi Prison, don't you do whatever you want, even if you are ...... No, it doesn't. β
Listening to Qi Zhen's tone, Gao Zhen knew that he knew that he was an Anning County horse, and he was a little happy in his heart, thinking that Luo Qingzhi actually told Guozijian his identity.
"Anyway, no." Qi Zhen continued.
Gao Zhen thought not to make trouble for Luo Qingzhi, so he didn't speak.
In the end, Gao Zhen and Zhou Jin's bedroom was arranged in the far corner of the east courtyard.
Seeing that there was no one around, Zhou Jin immediately approached Gao Zhen and said eagerly: "Ah Zhen? β
Gao Zhen immediately took a few steps back in disgust, "I said it, you recognized the wrong person." β
Zhou Jin took a few steps closer and said, "Although we have been separated for ten years, every time I was able to enter the palace, I saw you in the dark, I knew it was you, Ah Zhen, don't be like this, I had no choice back then." β
Gao Zhen didn't want to pay any attention to it, and opened the door to wait for Luo Chen's letter.
Zhou Jin grabbed his hand, Gao Zhen shook it off violently, and slapped him to the ground with a backhand.
"You, when did you learn martial arts." Zhou Jin was a little shocked.
Gao Zhentou didn't reply, he walked out of the door directly, and came to the west courtyard under the plum tree, according to the previous agreement, every day, Luo Chen would come to meet under the plum tree.
This is a desolate place for the country's eunuchs, and no one usually comes, so it is very hidden.
The time has come, Gao Zhen waited for a while, and Luo Chen really came over the wall.
"Second son."
Gao Zhen smiled, and when he saw the familiar person, he put aside the troubles just now, and he asked, "Is Ah Luo okay?" β
Luo Chen smiled, "But it's only been separated for half a day, and the master is not good." β
Gao Zhen let out an "oh" and said, "Everything is fine here, my bedroom is in the far corner of the east courtyard." β
Luo Chen nodded, "I know, the master asked me to tell you, don't be reckless in case of trouble." β
"Hmm," Gao Zhen nodded.
Luo Chen continued: "Three days later, the master will come to the Guozi Prison to interrogate the prisoners, but the master is worried that they will not tell the truth, she hopes that you can find a way to meet them in advance to see if you can know some inside information. β
"Okay." Gao Zhen nodded.
Luo Chen heard a voice not far away, "It seems that there are people, then I'll go first, second son, take care." β
"Okay."
As soon as Luo Chen left, Gao Zhen also heard the sound of hurried footsteps, and he quickly thought of a reason in his mind and walked out unhurriedly.
The person who came turned out to be the business of the company.
"I've seen Si Ye." Gao Zhen saluted respectfully.
Qi Zhen asked, "What are you doing here?" β
Gao Zhen said: "On the first day I came to Guozijian, I was a little curious, so I walked around, but I seemed to be lost. β
Qi Zhen's eyes were suspicious, but he didn't delve into it, he got a little closer to Gao Zhen, lowered his voice and said: "Don't think that with the county lord of Anning as your backer, you can do whatever you want in the country, you are just from a poor family, maybe in a few years, when the county lord is tired, you can only leave the county lord's mansion obediently, so, stay honest, don't wander around." β
The corners of Gao Zhen's mouth twitched, but he also held back his anger, and said a little calmly: "Yes, Lord Siye." β
Qi Zhen was a little surprised when he saw Gao Zhen so calm, he was annoyed in his heart, and said: "The county lord is older than you, and one day he will think that you are naΓ―ve and a burden." β
Gao Zhen still saluted respectfully and said, "Xie Siye reminds me that I will work hard." β
Back in the dormitory, Qi Zhen's words were recalled in Gao Zhen's ears, and he began to recall, "That second brother should be older than Ah Luo, so Ah Luo likes mature people......"
Gao Zhen was a little distracted, and he didn't notice Zhou Jin who was getting closer and closer.
When Gao Zhen felt the power on his back, he shivered for no reason, and stayed away in an instant, realizing that it was Zhou Jin again, and he was already angry, "What do you want to do, I will go and tell Si Ye tomorrow that you must change your bed." β
Zhou Jin was aggrieved on his face, "I just don't understand, why don't you recognize me?" β
Gao Zhen didn't want to talk nonsense, hugged the futon from the bed, pushed open the door, and prepared to leave.
"Where are you going? Ah Zhen. Zhou Jin was a little flustered.
Gao Zhen ignored it, closed the door with his backhand, and locked the door by the way, allowing Zhou Jin to bang on the door.
The voice was too loud, and the inmates in the surrounding dormitories opened the doors one after another and inquired.
"What's the matter? What is the noise? β
Gao Zhen didn't want to explain, and after thinking about shouting for a while, Zhou Jin stopped, but he knew that Zhou Jin hadn't stopped yet, and he had alarmed Siye.
"What's going on with the noisy noise?" Qi Zhen's tone was obviously displeased.
Seeing Gao Zhen sitting alone on the stone bench, Qi Zhen's expression was instantly disdainful, and he said in a weird way: "What's wrong?" Luo students. β
Gao Zhen turned his head to look at Qi Zhen, and his eyes seemed to say, "You are so naΓ―ve." β
Without waiting for Gao Zhen's explanation, Zhou Jin, who was released by the other prisoners, immediately explained, saying, "Si Ye, it's okay, Ah Luo is playing with me." β
"Is that so? Luo students? Qi Zhen was waiting for his answer.
Many things flashed through Gao Zhen's mind, thinking, "If you can't even solve such a small matter, and you have to bother Ah Luo, will Ah Luo also feel that he is too young and naΓ―ve." β
"Huh? Luo students? Qi Zhen asked again.
Gao Zhen sighed and said, "I'm sorry, Si Ye, it's the student who is wrong, and he shouldn't have made such a joke with Student Zhou." β
