Abandon the emperor as a prisoner

In the evening, the carriage returned to Yeling and returned to the Prince Regent's Mansion.

Jiang Haoxuan kept guarding beside Guan Xiaoluo's iron cage, pacing back and forth.

Finally, he saw Xiao Luo came back, being held by Gu Mingzhou with chains.

Xiao Luo was wearing Gu Mingzhou's silver sable cloak. The snow had stopped and the temperature was even lower. Even with the silver sable cloak on, Xiao Luo was still shivering.

Seeing Xiao Luo's fair face flushed with cold, the joy on Jiang Haoxuan's face instantly turned into distress.

He was happy that Xiao Luo was safe and sound, and what he felt distressed was that Xiao Luo was tortured.

Although it was Xiao Luo who was thinking about him, Jiang Haoxuan greeted Gu Mingzhou respectfully when he saw Gu Mingzhou.

"My subordinates see the lord."

Gu Mingzhou cast a contemptuous glance at Jiang Haoxuan, his eyes were icy cold, he was silent for a while, and suddenly revealed an evil smile, "Jiang Haoxuan, there is still the last dose of medicine prescribed by the imperial physician for Xiao Luo, go to the kitchen and ask someone to decoct the medicine!"

"Ah... this subordinate obeys." Jiang Haoxuan clasped his fists at Gu Mingzhou, and couldn't help sneaking a glance at Xiao Luo when he left.

For Gu Mingzhou's sudden kindness, Xiao Luo was a little confused.

"What are you still standing there for? Come here!"

Gu Mingzhou, who was walking in front, turned his head, wondering why Xiao Luo stood beside the iron cage and didn't move.

Xiao Luo subconsciously glanced at the iron cage beside him, confused.

Where should he go?

Isn't he a dog?

For a long time, the iron cage where the livestock was kept was his home.

My heart was full of doubts, but Xiao Luo didn't say a word, silently followed behind Gu Mingzhou, and followed Gu Mingzhou into a room.

This room is a wing room, but the layout is quite chic and elegant. Purple smoke rises from the incense burner, and the fragrance is refreshing.

However, such an environment made Xiao Luo even more uneasy. He tightly clutched the collar of the silver sable cloak with both hands, feeling an ominous premonition in his heart.

"You don't have to be so nervous." Gu Mingzhou turned his head and smiled faintly, "From today onwards, this room is yours."

"You...what do you mean by that?" Xiao Luo frowned, staring at Gu Mingzhou with vigilance in his eyes.

"Why, you've been a dog for so long that you can't even understand human language?"

Gu Mingzhou choked so Xiao Luo was speechless.

At this time, Jiang Haoxuan knocked on the door, "My lord, the medicine is ready."

"Come in."

Jiang Haoxuan gently opened the door, walked in with a steaming medicine bowl, and came to Gu Mingzhou's side.

"My lord..."

Gu Mingzhou took the medicine bowl from Jiang Haoxuan and handed it to Xiao Luo, "Drink it."

What came over his face was the bitter taste of the soup, which Xiao Luo was very familiar with. During the month that Gu Mingzhou left, Jiang Haoxuan would come to deliver medicine to him every day.

Xiao Luo was grateful to Jiang Haoxuan, even though he doubted Jiang Haoxuan's motives and behavior at first, he soon knew that Jiang Haoxuan was a good person.

When his back was just branded with the word "dog" by the branding iron, he was so ashamed and angry that he wanted to die. It was Jiang Haoxuan who gave him medicine while enlightening him, comforting him, and chatting with him.

"Why, you don't want to drink the medicine my king gave you?"

His attention was called back by Gu Mingzhou's voice, Xiao Luo explained softly: "It's just because it's too hot."

After that, he blew on the decoction, tested the temperature with the tip of his tongue, and drank it cautiously.

Seeing the medicinal juice flowing out from the corner of Xiao Luo's mouth, Gu Mingzhou narrowed his gray pupils and smiled mysteriously.

"Then, my lord, this subordinate will retire now."

Jiang Haoxuan cupped his hands towards Gu Mingzhou, turned around and planned to leave.

"Wait a moment."

Gu Mingzhou opened his mouth casually, Jiang Haoxuan stopped immediately, and saw behind Gu Mingzhou's hands, his handsome face turned evil with a smirk, "Wait a minute, the fun is about to begin."
