After tossing for so long, it was dark when Gu Jiao came out of the mansion.
It stands to reason that even if it is dark, it is nothing. Shengdu is so prosperous, and there is business in the middle of the night, but it is really unfortunate that she has encountered a curfew.
Pedestrians on the street began to decrease sharply, and shops on both sides closed one after another.
Gu Jiao was fascinated.
What the hell is this
Did she forget to look up the almanac when she went out
She had inquired about it, and the gates of the inner city of Shengdu only closed at 2 o'clock. At this time, Xu shi had just passed, and she still had half an hour.
It seems that today is too late to inquire about the news of the hospital.
You have to get out of the city as soon as possible, and you can't walk, otherwise you won't be able to catch up.
Gu Jiao quickly locked a carriage parked in the alley.
I haven't done this kind of robbery for a long time, and I've done it all day today.
The driver is not there.
I don't know if I was doing something else, but there was someone in the carriage, and the candlelight showed a man's figure.
Gu Jiao planned to take out the mask and put it on, but as soon as she touched it, she found that the mask was gone.
It looks like it's dropped somewhere.
Forget it, there is no mask without a mask. Gu Jiao smeared a piece of wall ash on the wall and smeared it on her face, then clenched the dagger in her hand and walked over to the carriage, pressing the dagger against the opponent's neck.
"do not move."
She threatened with a low, youthful voice.
This is a young man, wearing a plain white long shirt, a dark blue gauze over the outer layer, a jade belt around the waist, an elegant and delicate side face, and long eyelashes.
Rao had seen Xiao Heng so beautiful in the world, and still had to admit that he was a beautiful man.
He looked as old as Xiao Heng, with a noble temperament, calm and unhurried, and there was no trace of panic in him when the knife was placed on his neck.
Gu Jiao said, "You take me out of the inner city, I won't hurt you, South City Gate."
The young man did not say yes or no.
At this moment, the driver came back: "Sir, I asked, but the boss said that it is not ready yet, so let's come back in two days. Are we going back now?"
Gu Jiao sat on the man's side and stuck the dagger on the man's neck. The threat was obvious.
The young man said, "I want to go out of the South Inner City Gate."
Across a curtain, Gu Jiao could also feel the driver stunned: "Didn't you just come back? Why do you have to go out again? There is a sudden curfew in the city tonight, and we won't be able to come in if we go out."
The young man said nothing.
The driver Xu was accustomed to taking a man's acquiescence as a deterrent, he murmured a few words, and said, "Okay, okay, I can't beat you."
The coachman took the outer seat and drove the carriage to the inner city gate on the south.
But as the saying goes, when people are unlucky, they get stuck in their teeth when they drink water.
It was obvious that the city gate was closed ahead of schedule due to the curfew.
"You can't get out, sir," said the coachman.
The young man still didn't speak, Gu Jiao understood that he was waiting for her answer.
Gu Jiao held a dagger against him in one hand, and opened a gap in the curtain with the other to see if there were any inns along the way.
The young man suddenly said, "I advise you not to stay in the inn lightly, you will be arrested if you don't have a rune."
"What is the symbol?" Gu Jiao asked.
The young man said unhurriedly: "The certificate for people from the outer city to enter the inner city."
Gu Jiao was about to ask how you knew I was from the outer city, but she felt that the words were superfluous. If she was from the inner city, she should go back after the curfew, instead of hijacking the carriage and leaving the city quickly.
Gu Jiao glanced at him and asked, "Then do you have a rune?"
The young man said: "Inner city people have fish charms, so they don't need charms."
Gu Jiao knew that Yan Guo's fish talisman was something to prove her identity.
Gu Jiao looked at him: "Where's your fish charm?"
The man didn't move.
Gu Jiao glanced at his waist, removed his purse with one hand, and took out a bronze fish charm from it.
"Sir?" the coachman asked outside. "Who are you talking to? Is there anyone in the carriage?"
Gu Jiao's dagger moved and gestured to him with her eyes.
The young man said lightly, "Where is there an inn nearby? It's not closed."
The driver felt that he heard the voice, but his son refused to say that he couldn't catch him and said, "Go back two miles, there seems to be an inn."
"Go there," said the young man.
"Yes." The coachman drove the carriage to the inn.
The young man said again: "The carriage is parked here, you can go to the neighborhood to find out if there are any other inns."
"Yes."
The driver went as he said.
Gu Jiao knew how to use this method to push the driver away. Of course, Gu Jiao didn't think he was thinking of her, but most of the time he was worried that she would knock the driver unconscious.
It's a brainy one.
Thinking of something, Gu Jiao asked again, "Will you report to the official?"
The young man said calmly, "Do you think the government can search the entire inn in the inner city overnight?"
"Yes." Gu Jiao nodded.
It seemed that he had guessed that she would not be staying in the inn he had found for her.
What a smart guy.
Still beautiful.
Gu Jiao couldn't hold back, and looked at him up and down again, and inadvertently saw a little bit of beautiful jade fingertips showing slightly at the wide sleeves.
Gu Jiao is not strictly controlled by hand, but this hand is too long to be caught by someone—
Gu Jiao couldn't help thinking of the hand she saw at the station.
Isn't it the same person
No, the surname Mu is written on the fish talisman, and the one at the station is the son of the Su family.
Gu Jiao got off the carriage.
She wasn't sure if the man would report to the officer, but she still didn't go to the inn.
She went to the brothel.
The other party shouldn't have guessed that she will go to the brothel for the night, right
…
Gu Jiao stayed in the inner city for one night, and when the city gate opened at dawn, she used the same method to sneak out of the inner city with a carriage.
Nan Shi Niang stayed up all night and waited in the yard all night. When she finally saw Gu Jiao coming back, she held Gu Jiao's arm with a loose expression: "It scared me to death, I thought something happened to you... You last night Where did you go?"
Gu Jiao didn't want to worry Nan Shi Niang, so she just said lightly: "I was stranded in the inner city due to the curfew last night, and I stole someone's fish charm and lived in the inner city for the night."
"Is there a curfew in the inner city?" Nan Shi Niang was very surprised. "Shengdu rarely has a curfew. Something must have happened in the inner city."
Gu Jiao thought to herself, is it because I sneaked into that person's mansion and was discovered, so I disturbed the entire inner city
What kind of big man is that? Did you make the whole inner city curfew
Forget it, no one knew it was her anyway.
Nan Shi Niang said: "I didn't tell Xiao Shun. I asked Xiao Shun to sleep first. He just got up and asked me where you were. I said you went shopping. But Yan'er knows."
Gu Yan was the worst kid in the family. Apart from his poor health, he was smarter than anyone else.
Gu Jiao couldn't hide from him that he didn't return overnight.
Gu Jiao went to Gu Yan's room, sat down beside the bed, looked at Gu Yan's wet and red eyes, curved her lips, and said, "I'm fine."
Gu Yan slowly rested her head on Gu Jiao's lap.
…
Gu Jiao accompanied Gu Yan for a while, then went to the main room to have breakfast and then went to Tianqiong Academy with Gu Xiaoshun.
There are twelve halls in Tianqiong Academy, Gu Jiao was assigned to Mingxin Hall, and Gu Xiaoshun was assigned to Mingyue Hall.
They first went to the small duty room designated by the academy to pick up books, and then went to their respective classrooms.
The uniforms are custom-made according to the size of the two and will be available in a few days.
Gu Jiao entered the classroom.
The classrooms in the State of Yan were not the same as those in the State of Zhao. They used low desks, small stools, and two students at one table.
There are four tables in each row, for a total of eight rows.
Most of the tables were occupied.
Everyone bowed their heads to study, or chatted in groups of three or five, but for a while, no one noticed that a new student came to the classroom.
Zhong Ding is also in Mingxintang
He was sitting in the third row near the inner wall. There was no one around him, so he waved to Gu Jiao excitedly.
Gu Jiao was really afraid of his noise, pretended not to see it, and went to the empty table in the last row by the back door with the book in her arms.
Zhong Ding was disappointed: "Didn't you see me? Brother Xiao!"
He stood up and screamed at Gu Jiao!
All right now, everyone from Quan Ming Xin Tang looked at Gu Jiao.
Gu Jiao was dressed in Tsing Yi, and tied a simple teenage bun with a blue hairband. She had a clean temperament, and her eyes were cold, but there was an eye-catching birthmark on her young face.
Mingxintang was silent for a while.
Zhong Ding blinked at a loss, covered his mouth with his hand, and continued to talk to Gu Jiao in the air: "Brother Xiao... Is my voice a little loud?"
Gu Jiao really wanted to stun him with a stick.
what do you say!
However, this kind of collective gaze didn't last long. A young scholar suddenly ran in outside Mingxin Hall and shouted loudly, "Young Master Qingchen is coming to class!"
The silent Ming Xintang exploded in an instant.
"What? Young Master Qingchen?"
"Are you sure you read it right?"
"Why did Young Master Qingchen suddenly come to the academy?"
"Yes, doesn't he never come to class?"
"Let's go! Go and see!"
But before the crowd rushed out, the bell of the academy rang.
Everyone reluctantly returned to their seats.
Gu Jiao was not interested in seeing that young master Qingchen, she just felt that the name was somehow familiar.
She was thinking about it, and suddenly felt that everyone's eyes returned to her again.
No, you look at your son Qingchen, and what do you see me for
The next second, a young man in a sky blue uniform walked towards the back row and sat beside Gu Jiao without saying a word.
Gu Jiao: "..." Why are you sitting next to me? Can't you see so many vacancies ahead
Gu Jiao ignored him, didn't even look him in the eye, just took out a book lightly and flipped it over pretendingly.
Soon, the teacher who taught the class entered Mingxin Hall.
All the students stood up and bowed their hands in a salute: "Master Jiang!"
Under the cover of the sound of greetings, Gu Jiao heard the gentleman Qingchen beside her ask casually, "Is my fish talisman still working?"
"cough!"
Gu Jiao choked!
