Chapter 45: The Eagle

Outside the prison, the guards sensed the movement in the distance, brought their warden, and stood outside with them. The warden, who was extremely familiar with Ji Xiaoguang, had a strange look on his face.

Originally, Ji Xiaoguang himself, as well as the palace guards, didn't seem to be able to let this warden come in person, but some things that happened before tonight made that person really complicated in his heart.

He couldn't wait to have some communication with Ji Xiaoguang, even if it was just eye contact.

Not long after, Ji Xiaoguang's sedan chair in front of him arrived first, and he saw that this Jingzhao Yin Ji Master was full of spirit, which was similar to the malaise of the previous few days.

He was a little surprised, he didn't understand what was going on with this guy, and then he didn't know if it had anything to do with the incident that had happened before tonight.

"Eagle, a guest, an important guest, the son of the former Zhongshu Ling, who is still turning clouds and rain during the day today, big man!"

Ji Xiaoguang laughed loudly while getting off the sedan chair.

At first, hearing Ji Xiaoguang's words, the warden known as the "eagle" had not yet reacted, and his expression was a little ignorant.

"Big shots?" He frowned and muttered to himself.

Immediately after, he saw that behind Ji Xiaoguang's sedan chair, he was surrounded by palace guards, to be precise, the one who was escorted.

It is Guan Kuo.

At this moment, he understood what was going on when he woke up Ji Xiaoguang, and there was a little surprise on his face.

He has nothing to do with these things, as well as this character, and naturally he is not as particular concerned as the daughters of various provinces or Ji Xiaoguang and others, so he didn't know the news of Guan Kuo's arrest until now.

Those scenes diluted the communication he couldn't wait to have with Ji Xiaoguang before, and he forgot about it for a while.

The palace general who escorted Guan Kuo asked the eagle with a cold face: "My lord, someone came to the palace during the day today, has that matter been done?" ”

Ji Xiaoguang was getting carried away, and he didn't care about the words here and the warden's facial expression.

The eagle arched his hand and said, "Your Majesty's will is naturally done, but I don't know...... What does this mean exactly? ”

"Now that it's done, it's good, let this one in now." The palace general faced the eagle's question, and his expression remained unchanged, because he already knew everything, just like the one who could still laugh at Gonggong Peng.

But the change that his words brought to the eagle changed from surprise to shock, because he could not have imagined that the ridiculous and questionable thing that someone from the palace had ordered to do in the evening was actually for this one!

Guan Kuo listened to the conversation between them silently, and also saw the change in their expressions clearly, and there were some doubts in his heart, he didn't know what the situation was, but he felt that the feeling of unhappiness had been reduced a lot.

He has already been in prison once, but now that he thinks about it, it is not so uncomfortable and tortuous.

Probably the biggest torture of being in prison is the hurdles in my heart that I can't get over.

Ji Xiaoguang smiled and looked at the heavily guarded prison that looked a little gloomy because of the arrival of night, and his face was incredibly satisfied, as if he had seen his beautiful wife on the wedding night many years ago.

Seeing that Ji Xiaoguang didn't want to communicate with himself, even if it was eye contact, the warden "Eagle" gave up and put down that kind of mentality.

"Trouble your lord to lead the way." The palace general nodded at the eagle.

Seeing this, the eagle nodded in response, then greeted several cronies and jailers around him, and walked to the front.

Ji Xiaoguang restrained his smile a little, but the smile was still on his face, and he followed behind with a swagger, and the officials around him also followed.

Then there were the palace guards, led by the palace generals, escorting Guan Kuo, who was struggling to hold the basket in shackles.

The stars are shining tonight, but there is still a gloomy and cold atmosphere around the prison, which may be the deep breath of wandering in the years that have been passed down for many years.

Guan Kuo has been imprisoned once, but it is not here, this place is extremely unfamiliar to him.

However, Ji Xiaoguang's happy expression and attitude made the atmosphere a lot more lively, Guan Kuo thought with a self-deprecating smile.

As we go deeper, a dark and damp aura greets us, and the inside can only be illuminated by torches, yellow-orange-orange, and people's faces look a little bizarre and even weird under that light.

The patrolling jailer saluted the warden Ji Xiaoguang and the others a little bit where he passed, first he was a little puzzled by such a battle, and then he saw the person who was surrounded and escorted by the palace guards with a serious face, and after careful identification, he realized that this was the Guan Kuo who had been very noisy recently, and he couldn't help but be surprised.

Guan Kuo didn't care what they thought of him, especially when he looked at himself as he held the basket in a strange posture, and grinned at them.

Those jailers frowned, thinking that it was really Qingshan who was easy to change, and his nature was difficult to change, I thought that this guy had changed, but now that he was caught, he didn't know how to do it, and he seemed to be very happy, it was really stupid.

Along the way, most of the cells are empty, and today's Northern Tang Dynasty, especially Chang'an, is still relatively stable, as for the little people who don't have a backstage, some have long been done, and there are really not many who can stay here.

After traveling a longer distance, the number of cells gradually increased, but it did not take into account the sight of many people lying on their stomachs and screaming for injustice, and all of them were lifeless, as if they were indifferent to anything, leaning against the corners, not speaking, not even bothering to raise their eyes, and their faces were unusually pale because of the lack of sunlight all year round.

It's really a lifeless place.

"Eagle, where are you going, is it possible, to treat such a 'big man', you have to deliberately choose a better cell?"

After walking for so long, although he was still full of interest, Ji Xiaoguang was no longer sitting in the sedan chair after all, and he rarely moved his legs and feet, and he felt a little uncoordinated with his hands and feet, which was not conducive to rope up, and the eagle's deliberate attempt to find a place really made him feel a little suspicious.

The eagle opened his mouth and was about to answer, but the palace general rushed ahead of him:

"Master Ji, have you forgotten that someone came to the palace today? For Guan Kuo, everything is specially arranged, and he naturally has to go to a special place. ”
