Mo Xuewei was preparing to deliver the final blow.
"Senior shouldn't know about these things, right?" She continued with a smile, "That's true. How could Tang San tell you these things? If you knew, would he still be able to take those things with him?"
"The value of those things is no less than that of regularly detoxifying Dugu Yan. Moreover, if Dugu Yan could take the right immortal herbs, her future might not be so predictable. Senior, don't you feel wronged?"
What should have been his was taken by a blond brat who called him "brother," and he didn't even tell him the truth when he took it. Such a precious thing, and it could potentially affect Dugu Yan's future. How could Dugu Bo not be angry? Not feel wronged?
He treated Tang San like a good brother and helped him with everything. Tang San actually treated him like a fool and tried to take advantage of him.
This is infuriating no matter how you look at it, isn't it?
However, Dugu Bo forcibly suppressed his anger. He calmed himself down, telling himself not to act impulsively. Perhaps... what Xue Qinghe said wasn't true...
But if it weren't true, how could he know so much?
The ulterior motive in Dugu Bo's mind directly refuted the reasons he had given Tang San.
Tang San just tricked him into thinking he knew nothing.
What's wrong with this statement?
No.
Dugu Bo's expression was incredibly handsome; he was simply bursting with barely suppressed anger.
Mo Xuewei looked at him with a smile and extended an olive branch: "This is a pill that I have searched for by all means. There is only one in the world. After taking this pill, you will be detoxified immediately. However, this detoxification will not clear the toxins from your body. It will not affect the effect of the poison, but will only purify the side effects of the poison. This is beneficial to you, senior. But unfortunately, I have searched for many years and only have this one."
Mo Xuewei took out the pills again and placed them on the table.
Dugu Bo was naturally surprised when he heard this news.
But his gaze couldn't help but drift towards the pill: "Is what Your Highness said true?"
"Of course, I have no reason to lie to you, senior," Mo Xuewei affirmed.
"I have traveled the continent for so many years and have never heard of such a pill," Dugu Bo said, reasonably expressing his doubts.
Mo Xuewei said directly, "Didn't that senior also guard the Yin-Yang Well of Ice and Fire without knowing the great uses of the immortal herbs inside?"
"..." Dugu Bo choked, speechless.
This…
That makes a lot of sense, doesn't it?
"This pill is of no use to me. I think Senior Dugu needs it more."
Mo Xuewei's meaning couldn't be clearer, and Dugu Bo wasn't stupid either; she was obviously asking him if he wanted to join Xue Qinghe's camp.
Dugu Bo hesitated.
He had already promised to support the Fourth Prince Xue Beng, so of course he wouldn't go back on his word. Although he was unrestrained and unconventional, he was a man of his word. How could he possibly go back on his promise?
but……
Looking at the pill on the table.
What if Xue Qinghe is telling the truth?
What if this pill really can cure Dugu Yan?
Dugu Bo was caught in a dilemma.
He had to choose between his family and his promises, and he didn't want to give up either of them.
Seeing Dugu Bo struggling was within Mo Xuewei's expectations.
At this point, we have no choice but to bring up those romantic tales about avalanches.
"I know what you're considering, senior. My fourth brother must have invited you to be his advisor, right?" Mo Xuewei said calmly.
Dugu Bo remained silent, which was taken as tacit agreement. Mo Xuewei continued, "He must have told the senior that he suspects me, right?"
"..."
Dugu Bo was even less inclined to answer.
This involves a royal power struggle.
He doesn't readily admit whether something is true or not if there's no evidence.
"It's not impossible that the thief is crying 'stop thief'," Mo Xuewei said, narrowing her eyes. "Besides, he's not some fake playboy; he's a real playboy."
The second half of the sentence was so light and airy that even Dugu Bo found it a little creepy.
His intuition was right; Xue Qinghe was never as simple as he appeared on the surface.
Mo Xuewei tapped the table lightly, seemingly lost in thought. "Senior, there's no need to rush to give me an answer. Some things can wait until you've confirmed them before making a decision. My fourth brother, he's even infertile. If it weren't for the fact that he shares the surname Xue, he'd probably already be exiled to the border, wouldn't he?"
Losing fertility due to frequenting brothels is a disgrace to the royal family.
Dugu Bo was greatly shocked upon hearing this.
Is this even possible?
He hadn't thought about that.
"Senior Dugu, you know a bit about medicine, right? You could go and check on my fourth brother's condition. But once you do, you must keep it a secret, otherwise it would be bad if Father found out," Mo Xuewei said quietly, giving him a heads-up.
Dugu Bo knew, of course, that this matter could not be spread. Regardless of whether it was true or not, it was something that could not be discussed. It concerned the very interests of the royal family, and whether it was confirmed to be true or false, it could not be spoken of.
Dugu Bo stood up, not intending to linger. "Let me go and confirm this matter, Your Highness. I shall take my leave."
After saying that, he left the Education Commission office.
Qian Renxue watched Dugu Bo leave. Once he was out of sight, she put away the pills on the table and asked, "Is the avalanche really as you described?"
It hasn't been that long, has it? Slow-acting drugs shouldn't take effect so quickly. Besides, if we let Dugu Bo confirm it now, wouldn't that prove that Xue Beng was drugged?
Qian Renxue looked at Mo Xuewei with some confusion.
Mo Xuewei smiled at her and said, "Your Highness, don't underestimate the medicine produced by the system. It's true that Xue Beng was drugged, but the drugs have already dissolved. Dugu Bo can't detect it. He will only think that Xue Beng was caused by excessive indulgence, and in fact, Xue Beng did indeed indulge excessively."
"..." Qian Renxue remained silent, only looking at Mo Xuewei.
After listening to the conversation between Mo Xuewei and Dugu Bo, she realized that Mo Xuewei was quite adept at using intimidating language.
She could lie without batting an eye, and it all seemed so natural; it seems her training was really effective.
Qian Renxue couldn't help but smile. "That's good."
"Of course!" Mo Xuewei, always ready to oblige, stood up, glanced at the time, and said, "It's getting late, Your Highness. Let's go get something to eat; I'm a little hungry."
"Who told you not to eat breakfast before you left home? I prepared it for you, but you insisted you weren't hungry and wouldn't eat. How come you're hungry now?"
"Now that I've used my brain and talked, the situation is different; of course I'm hungry!"
"Oh, so what would you like to eat?"
"Braised prawns! Mapo tofu! Braised eggplant!"
"..."
