It was approaching sunset, and even though spring had begun, it was still very cold. The door to the study room was wide open, and a cold wind blew towards Luo Qingzhi in the study room. She shivered, and she looked at Qingshan Jun's letter and fell into deep thought.
.
"Your Highness, someone from the Ministry of Etiquette is here." The boy came to report.
Luo Qingzhi raised her eyes and asked, "What's the matter?"
"Here comes the wedding auspicious dress pattern."
Luo Qingzhi thought that it was indeed time to finalize the design today, "Let them leave it to you. I will let them know when I have chosen it."
"yes."
After a while, the drawings were sent over. Luo Qingzhi glanced at them briefly, not wanting to make a decision.
In the Jingzhao Mansion, the governor Yang Shen interrogated Gao Zhen in the inner hall.
Gao Zhen was still wearing Luo Qingzhi's cloak, and his eyes were cold. Yang Shen looked at him and asked, "Are you Luo Jinchao?"
"Yes." Gao Zhen responded lightly.
Yang Shen continued to look at him. Gao Zhen slowly raised his head and looked at Yang Shen. Unexpectedly, he found that Master Fu Yin was so young and looked to be in his early thirties.
Their eyes met, and Yang Shen said: "Princess An Ning is kind to me, but as the governor of Jingzhao Prefecture, even if you are her commander, I will not be partial."
Gao Zhen lowered his head slowly and did not respond to these words.
Yang Shen continued: "Tell me, what happened?"
Gao Zhen said: "I didn't hurt him."
"Then where did his abdominal injury come from?" Yang Shen asked.
"..."
Gao Zhen was silent at first and had no intention of speaking. Yang Shen was not in a hurry and changed the question.
"Have you had any issues with Zhou Jing?"
"..."
Gao Zhen was silent again.
Yang Shen said calmly: "Princess Anning is openly protecting you in the Imperial Academy. Many people have already prepared tips and are ready to interfere with her. If you still plan to do this and say nothing, then you will have to suffer the consequences in the end."
It will only be the princess."
When it came to Luo Qingzhi, Gao Zhen finally stopped being silent, "I didn't hurt him. He wanted to hurt himself with a knife. I went to grab the knife. During the argument, he stabbed himself."
"Why did he stab himself with a knife?" Yang Shen asked.
Gao Zhen frowned, pursed his lips, and said, "Should you ask Zhou Jing?"
Yang Shen said: "After getting your answer, I will naturally ask Zhou Jing."
Gao Zhen lowered his head and avoided his sight. Yang Shen was not annoyed and continued: "So, what's your answer?"
"......I have no idea."
Yang Shen asked: "Is it because I don't know how to answer, or why he stabbed me?"
Gao Zhen raised his head, looked at Yang Shen, and said, "I don't even know."
Yang Shen looked at Gao Zhen with firm eyes, squinted his eyes, and suddenly remembered that he had seen such a look on Luo Qingzhi's face.
"It seems that I can't ask anything else." Yang Shen chuckled and ordered, "Take Mr. Luo down and keep a good watch on him."
After Gao Zhen left, Yang Shen asked his subordinate about Zhou Jing's situation.
"Sir, the people in the Zhou Mansion say that Mr. Zhou is still awake and cannot accept our inquiries."
Yang Shen nodded but did not mean to urge him. The people under him couldn't help but be curious and asked: "Sir, why are you not in a hurry at all?"
"What's the rush?" Yang Shen asked.
"Although the people involved are only students of the Imperial College, one is the only son of the Minister of Industry and the other is the guardian of County Anning. This case may be heard by Datian at any time."
Yang Shen smiled and said, "Go to Heaven to listen? Wouldn't that be great? Then your Majesty would come down to hear the case, and I would be free."
"grown ups......"
"Okay, you go and watch this Luo Jinchao. You can't make any mistakes. I'll wait in the front hall." Yang Shen said.
"Waiting?" The subordinate was confused, "Who is it?"
Yang Shen didn't answer, just smiled lightly, told Gao Zhen to watch over him, and left the place.
As soon as he entered the front hall, someone came to report to him.
"Sir, Princess An Ning would like to see you."
"Please come in."
Luo Qingzhi just saw Yang Shen, smiled lightly, and joked, "Long time no see, you seem to be a lot more assertive."
Yang Shen looked innocent, "Didn't I already stand up to greet you?"
The two looked at each other and smiled, like friends they hadn't seen for a long time. Yang Shen smiled and said, "I know you are my savior, but you said you didn't want me to repay you back then."
When it came to repaying a favor, Luo Qingzhi raised her eyebrows unconsciously, "There's really no need to pledge myself to you."
Yang Shen spread his hands and said helplessly: "Then, I can't let you interfere in this case."
"Am I this kind of person in your heart?" Luo Qingzhi asked.
"That's hard to say," Yang Shen smiled, "after all, we are not familiar with each other."
"Okay." Luo Qingzhi shook her head, "I won't get involved in the case, you can just investigate it yourself."
Yang Shen squinted his eyes and thought for a while before saying, "Do you believe him that much?"
Luo Qingzhi said without any hesitation: "He said no, I believe it."
Yang Shen looked at Luo Qingzhi, but Luo Qingzhi was unwilling to explain the relationship between the two and asked softly: "I won't interfere in the trial, but it's okay to go and meet."
"certainly."
Gao Zhen was temporarily detained in the Jingzhao Mansion Prison, but according to Yang Shen's instructions, his hands and feet were not shackled, and he was quite dignified among the prisoners.
Luo Qingzhi's steps were light, but Gao Zhen still raised his head and spotted her immediately.
Almost instantly, Gao Zhen changed from a frown to a smile.
"Arlo."
Luo Qingzhi was also obviously happy, "I came to see you and brought you something." After saying that, she handed the bundle to Gao Zhen.
Gao Zhen took it but didn't want to open it. He just stared at Luo Qingzhi and said, "Aluo, I don't have it."
"I believe you." Luo Qingzhi did not hesitate.
Listening to Luo Qingzhi's affirmative answer, he sighed slightly and opened his mouth several times, but in the end he still couldn't speak out.
Luo Qingzhi saw his hesitation, but she didn't force it. She took out a few drawings from her arms, handed them to him, and continued: "This is the pattern of the auspicious dress for next month's wedding. You pick one."
Gao Zhen didn't make a move, so Luo Qingzhi asked softly: "What? You don't want to marry me?"
"No!" Gao Zhen replied immediately, "No, Aluo, I thought so."
Luo Qingzhi nodded, "Then you don't have to think about anything. I will take you home within three days at most."
"Go home..." Gao Zhen muttered silently, raised his eyes, his eyes were dancing, and grabbed Luo Qingzhi's hand, "Aluo, Zhou Jin's injury is really not caused by me, he wants to hurt
I went to grab the knife, but accidentally let go and he stabbed me."
"Then, why did he hurt himself?" Luo Qingzhi asked the same question as Yang Shen.
Gao Zhen lowered his head slowly, not daring to look directly at Luo Qingzhi.
Luo Qingzhi stopped pressing, "It's okay. If you don't want to say it, just don't."
"I'll leave first and come back to see you tomorrow." Luo Qingzhi said.
Gao Zhen saw Luo Qingzhi slowly walking away, closed his eyes, and shouted, "Aluo, I, I..."
Luo Qingzhi walked back to the cell door, held his hand, and whispered, "He likes to appreciate you, right?" After all, she still called out a word, but from Gao Zhen's wide eyes, she knew,
Gao Zhen understood.
Gao Zhen retracted his hand and whispered: "Dirty, very dirty."
Luo Qingzhi spread her palms, because she touched the wall of the cell, there was some dust on her palms, "I'm dirty too."
Gao Zhen subconsciously stretched out his hand to clean the dust from Luo Qingzhi's palm, muttering to himself, "It's clean now."
When he was about to take it back again, Luo Qingzhi grabbed him, pulled him towards her with a strong force, kissed the back of his hand devoutly, then looked into his eyes and said sincerely: "Now you are clean too.
"
Gao Zhen's heartbeat was beating very fast, as if it was about to burst out. Fortunately, Luo Qingzhi let go of her hand in time and saved his heart.
Luo Qingzhi said gently and carefully: "I know everything, don't be afraid, I'm here."
Gao Zhen nodded, "Aluo, come and take me home quickly."
When Luo Qingzhi left the cell, Yang Shen stopped her, smiled and said, "It seems that this person treats you differently."
"If he loses a hair from you, I will settle the score with you." Luo Qingzhi said calmly.
Yang Shen smiled and said, "It seems that I want to repay the favor with my body, but I really can't do it."
"Let's go." After Luo Qingzhi said that, she didn't even bother to leave.
Of course she didn't know that after she left, Yang Shen put away his smile, entered the cell, opened Gao Zhen's cell door, looked at Gao Zhen again, and said unceremoniously: "You are not worthy of her."
Gao Zhen retorted: "Even so, she is still mine."
Yang Shen chuckled, "You know, this is my territory."
"So what?" Gao Zhen asked with raised eyebrows.
Yang Shen continued: "Luo Qingzhi is the person I like."
Gao Zhen was not surprised and looked at Yang Shen, imitating the way Yang Shen looked at him just now.
"You are not worthy of her."
"Hahaha." Yang Shen laughed, "Now, you are a bit worthy of her."
Gao Zhen didn't answer. He sat cross-legged on the ground, opened the package sent by Luo Qingzhi, and looked through the contents.
Seeing Gao Zhen like this, Yang Shen said "boring" and left the room.
Gao Zhen carefully looked through the things Luo Qingzhi brought, without noticing Yang Shen's departure. When he looked through the auspicious clothing patterns, he thought of the two people worshiping each other in their clothes, and the corners of his mouth raised, filled with happiness.
appearance.
He put down the drawings and continued to look through them. There were Warring States policies brought to him by Fan Li, soft protective armor brought to him by Luo Chen, and Qin Shu also brought a book.
Gao Zhen opened a page and closed it instantly, a blush creeping onto his cheeks.
Gao Zhen sighed deeply and thought, "Unconsciously, I have met so many people."
There was a sound of footsteps. Gao Zhen was confused, thinking it was Yang Shen who had left and returned. Without raising his head, he said angrily: "I know I'm not worthy of A Luo now, but you are even less worthy."
.”
After a while, without hearing Yang Shen's answer, Gao Zhen suddenly raised his head. The man in front of him was wearing a black brocade robe. The man pulled down his hat. Gao Zhen's eyes were startled, and he slowly stood up and walked towards the man.
The light was projected through the gap, and the person who came was very beautiful, but his face was indifferent.
