Xiao Shi led the way while Gu Zeyan silently agreed behind him. No one knew what he was thinking. However, Xiao Qingya was a little surprised. Most importantly, Gu Zeyan didn't object to her following him. Wasn't he afraid that she would go against him if she knew his secret? Or did he have a motive for bringing him along?
When Xiao Qingya followed them in, Xiao Shi had already lit up all the lamps in the corridor. At the end of the corridor was a stone door. He turned the lamp holder on the right side of the door gently. With a creak, the stone door was opened. After entering, there was another passage that was neither long nor short. At the end of the corridor, Xiao Shi gently pushed the door. There was a room inside, and it had everything. It would not be a problem for him to live in it for a year or so. However, what surprised Xiao Qingya was not only these, but also the person in the room at this moment.
"Mo Xi greets Your Highness." Mo Xi, who was originally sitting in front of her dressing room, immediately stood up when she saw Gu Zeyan. However, when she saw Xiao Qingya beside him, she raised her eyebrows slightly. She was a little puzzled by Gu Zeyan's actions, but she could only suppress it in her heart and bow to the two of them.
"Tell this king clearly, what exactly is going on?”Seeing Mo Xi here, Gu Zeyan was relieved. He reached out and grabbed Xiao Qingya to sit at the table with him. Xiao Shi immediately poured tea for the two of them.
"It's Prime Minister Xiao's doing." Mo Xi calmly glanced at Xiao Qingya, who was sitting next to Gu Zeyan. Seeing that his face was calm and honest, and his eyes were even more calm, she felt as if she had no place to be at ease under his gaze. She could only continue resentfully," Prime Minister Xiao heard that Princess Wen was poisoned by His Highness, and he was indignant, so he secretly bribed the servant who brought wine to Yao Lian's room. However, Prime Minister Xiao did not expect that the Unfettered Pavilion belonged to His Highness. He only planned to get rid of the Unfettered Pavilion when he realized something.”
"Beloved Consort, what do you think we should do?" Gu Zeyan's face was cold. Although he had some admiration for Xiao Ruojun, it was more of a bone-chilling coldness. He would be satisfied after killing him. He turned to look at Xiao Qingya, who was still calm.
"Whatever your highness plans to do, whatever you do, it has nothing to do with me.”Xiao Qingya finally understood why Gu Zeyan had brought him along, but when she heard Mo Xi say that she was angry, she was probably even more angry that she didn't kill Gu Zeyan. There was only a bitter smile in his heart, but no one could understand this bitterness. He looked at Gu Zeyan, got up, and walked out. He couldn't help but laugh at himself. Father, where are you putting me? Should she thank her father for his sudden concern over the past twenty years?
"Inform everyone in the Unfettered Pavilion not to let me hear Xiao Ruojun's name tomorrow.”Gu Zeyan looked at Xiao Qingya's back and sneered. Since he, Xiao Qingya, didn't care, why should he, Gu Zeyan, care? "Leave Xiao Ruojun behind."
"Mo Xi understands." After Mo Xi gracefully bowed to Gu Zeyan, she sat back in front of her dressing room and began to disguise herself so that it would be easier for her to do things.
"After some time, you can disguise yourself as this king's male pet and serve me at all times.”Gu Zeyan pinched Mo Xi's chin and teased her for a while before he got up and left.
"Mo Xi respectfully sends off your highness." Mo Xi looked at Gu Zeyan in surprise. She did not understand what he meant, but since His Highness had already said it, she could only accept it.
"Where's the Princess Consort?" Gu Zeyan walked out of the secret chamber and saw that only Xiao Shi was waiting outside, so he asked.
"Xiao Shi saw that wangfei's face was a bit pale and didn't ask. wangfei said that if wangye asked, he would say that wangfei had returned to Qingya Residence.”Xiao Shi couldn't help but admire Xiao Qingya. Even when Gu Zeyan came out and asked him, he could predict things like a god.
Pale? Worry flashed in Gu Zeyan's heart for a moment before he sneered. His eyes were as cold as ever. Hehe, it seems that you still have feelings. This king wants to see how you will react if your Xiao family is destroyed overnight. Then, he remembered that Gu Zeluo was still on the verge of death. He couldn't help but hate Xiao Ruojun. He wanted Xiao Ruojun dead!
"Prepare a horse for this king." Gu Zeyan's affection for Xiao Qingya had completely disappeared because of Gu Ze's poisoning. At this moment, even if Xiao Qingya died in front of him, he would not waver. The only thing in his mind now was to wake Gu Zeyan up.
Gu Zeyan returned to the Prince's mansion and hastened his horse to Luoyang Prince's mansion before he could even sit on his chair. He entered the mansion without waiting for the announcement. His footsteps were hurried, which showed how worried he was about Gu Zeluo's situation.
"How is Luo?" Gu Zeyan hurriedly walked to Gu Zeluo's door and asked the butler.
"The situation is very bad, and the young prince has not woken up.”The butler answered worriedly. The butler would only address Gu Zeyan as the young prince when Gu Zeyan was present.
Gu Zeyan pushed the door open and entered. Just as he walked to Gu Zeluo's bedside, he saw Gu Zeluo frowning uneasily. His face was ashen as he listened to Gu Zeluo's words." Yao Lian, don't, don't come over. Quick, go quickly."”
"Luo, how long has it been like this?" Gu Zeyan frowned and asked with an unpleasant expression.
"Four days." The butler replied respectfully.
No, the timing isn't right. If it's only been four days, why did you tell us this half a month ago? Could it be that there was no such phenomenon at that time?
"Were there any symptoms before?" Gu Zeyan sat at the side and lowered his head to ask.
" Speaking of symptoms..." The butler pondered for a moment and immediately said,""Half a month ago, Young Master Yao Lian from the Carefree Pavilion persuaded the young prince to come back. The young prince often had nightmares and woke up in a cold sweat.”
"Just this?" Gu Zeyan narrowed his eyes and looked at the butler, hoping that what he said was true.
"Replying to your highness, this lowly one doesn't dare to lie.”The butler immediately knelt down to show his loyalty.
"Got it. Take good care of this king. If anything goes wrong, this king will bury all of you.”Gu Zeyan ignored their reactions and went to another room to meet those quacks.
"Greetings, Freedom King." When the group of imperial physicians saw Gu Zeyan walk in, they immediately knelt down.
"Please don't be polite. What illness does the Prince of Luoyang have?”Gu Zeyan didn't even look at them. He sat on the chair and lowered his head to sip his tea as he asked directly.
"Replying to Your Highness, we are incompetent and have not been able to find out what illness the King of Luoyang has.”One of the imperial physicians answered with his head lowered, cold sweat dripping down his forehead.
"What are you doing? You can't even find a disease?" Gu Zeyan's tone sank, and the teacup in his hand shattered. The group of imperial physicians were so frightened that they all knelt on the ground and trembled.
"Your Highness, please calm down. We will do our best.”another imperial physician replied.
"Humph!" Gu Zeyan snorted coldly and said," Take good care of her."”After saying that, he stood up and returned to the residence. He could not sit here and wait for nothing now. He still had things to do.
In the evening, Meng Jun immediately went back to the mansion to see Xiao Qingya when he learned that she had returned. However, he was stopped by Xiao Shi as soon as he entered the mansion. Baili Qingkong and Shui Lichen also rushed back and handed Shui Lichen over to Xiao Shi before going to find Gu Zeyan.
"Your Highness, Qing Kong has returned." Baili Qingkong reported to Gu Zeyan.
"En, watch over this prince's residence tonight.”Gu Zeyan ordered Baili Qingkong. He walked to the Elegant Residence and pushed the door open. Seeing that he was reading a book in the study, he sneered and looked at Xiao Qingya's expression." Beloved Consort, how about playing chess with me tonight?"”
"Since your highness has invited me, I will naturally accompany you.”Xiao Qingya looked at him with a pale face. He knew that this was a disguised form of house arrest. Was she afraid that he would help the Xiao family? The moment his mother was beaten to death, the Xiao family had already cut off all ties with him, Xiao Qingya. But why did he still feel heartache? Who was this for? He didn't know, couldn't explain, and didn't want to know. He just treated everything tonight as a dream.
