Back at the mansion, Lin Xueqi walked into her boudoir and was thinking about whether to let Mo Xichen come in to talk to her or something, but Mo Xichen directly put his hand on the door and raised an eyebrow at Lin Xueqi, "Is the quasi-king coming in?" ”

Lin Xueqi was overjoyed, after the incident just now, she was still a little scared, it was good to have someone in the room to accompany her.

"Come in." Lin Xueqi stepped out of the way, gently closed the door, walked to the table, poured him a glass of water, and went to the bed to sit down.

"Why are you so attentive today?" Mo Xichen asked, because in normal times, Lin Xueqi poured water for himself, and he would pour water for him after he reminded him.

"It's nothing." Lin Xueqi lowered her head, fiddled with her fingers, and after a while, she said, "If you hadn't appeared in time, I'm afraid Duan Murphy and I would have died." ”

Her mind seemed to recall that time.

"Don't think about it." Mo Xichen came to her side, covered her eyes, and wrapped her body in his arms, he knew for the first time that the girl's body was so soft and so petite.

"yes, okay." Lin Xueqi agreed, and Mo Xichen let her go, but she was still a little reluctant.

Lin Xueqi pondered, she didn't understand, was Mo Yi just for the position of the crown prince? I moved to kill. He should have been planning for a long time, and her appearance in the past few days may have disrupted his plans, and it was time for the truth to come out.

"No, I'm going to ask Duan Murphy." If you want to say who is most familiar with Mo Yi now, it belongs to Duan Murphy, the former master and apprentice, and it was not in vain.

"You don't have to look for me, I'm here myself." Duan Murphy pushed open the door and looked at Lin Xueqi who was sitting on the bed, with a guilty face, "I'm sorry, I didn't invite you." ”

Lin Xueqi looked at her, didn't speak for a while, she turned her face, looked at the dark night outside the window, was silent, and the room was silent.

"There's nothing to be ashamed of, you're my mother's friend, what's polite." The distant voice sounded in an instant, and she spoke without any tone, and she couldn't tell whether she was happy or what she was feeling at this time.

Duan Murphy bit her lower lip and closed the door, she stood in front of the door, looking at her with a pair of clear eyes, and said in a deep voice, "I'm sorry, I lied to you." Once, I did accept Mo Yi as an apprentice, and I also taught him his medical skills, and I also taught him some poison techniques to defend himself, but I didn't want him to learn those ...... secretly."

"Stealing from school? If you can't control it yourself, don't complain about anyone. Lin Xueqi turned her head to look at her, her eyes full of ice.

Duan Murphy's hands were clenched, and her eyes gradually lowered, "I'm sorry, I didn't expect it to be like this, it was I who hurt Mo Xichen." As she spoke, her eyes turned red.

"Oh yes." She seemed to remember something, took out a pill, stepped forward and handed it to Mo Xichen, "This is the antidote, so that you can be fine, as for that...... I'm still researching, but rest assured, I'll do my best. ”

"I hope so." Thinking of the black fist mark, Lin Xueqi's eyes were also lonely, she didn't know how long Mo Xichen would live.

Mo Xichen took it, raised his head and took it, drank another cup of tea, and felt that his body was indeed a lot better, and he was very energetic.

"Now, can you tell us about Mo Yi, the incident when he secretly learned poison, and the emergence of your master-apprentice relationship?" All this is the most important thing for Lin Xueqi.

Because only by understanding his past may be able to make him let go of the burden of hatred, in this way, he will probably be able to hand over the antidote, right?

Duan Murphy recalled, his thoughts drifting into the distance, "That year, your mother was still there, and she brought you to the top of the Snow Peak when she just turned nine years old, and that year, I saw you for the second time. Thinking about it, the corners of her lips were slightly hooked, as if remembering that day, her childlike voice had not disappeared, and she called her 'Auntie' crisply.

"I see you are very pleasing to the eye, you also like me very much, often follow behind me, you were very cute at that time, you were also interested in pharmaceuticals at that time, I intended to take you as an apprentice, but you didn't agree to it in every way." Speaking of this, Duan Murphy's brows furrowed slightly, she didn't understand why she refused her kindness when she was obviously interested in pharmaceuticals.

Lin Xueqi propped her chin and said, "You better sit down and say, I look weird tired, raise my head and neck sore." "Lin Xueqi is like this, with a knife mouth and a tofu heart.

Duan Murphy chuckled and sat down with his sleeves brushed up, and at this time Mo Xichen poured a glass of water and pushed it to her, so as not to dry her mouth.

"Thank you." Duan Murphy stretched out his hand to take it, took a sip, and continued, "You played with your mother on the top of the snow peak for a few days, and then went back, and in those days, I was used to your laughter and laughter in the house, and in a trance, I seemed to hear your voice again and asked me to play with you." My maidservant Mingyu said that it was time for me to go down the mountain and rest, and she said that I had auditory hallucinations.

Then, I went down. The capital is indeed very prosperous, but behind this prosperity, how much darkness is there? Some officials filled their pockets, beat and insulted their subordinates, and bullied the weak, and some ordinary people did not dare to stop them at all, and could only say in their hearts that those who were bullied considered themselves unlucky. Duan Murphy laughed at himself.

"That day, I was bored in every way, so I chose to quietly enter the palace, wanting to find you and surprise you, but I don't know which house you live in, so I went to see each one, after all, idle is idle.

So that day, I looked at him, he was alone in the courtyard looking at the scriptures, what attracted me was not his seriousness and diligence, but his eyes, clear and innocent, which people in the palace did not have. ”

But the innocent little boy that day became what he is now, she didn't believe it, but she had to believe it.

"Then I met him, and he wasn't surprised, he just looked at me with those big, round eyes, and smiled, and the smile was clean, and he said, 'Big sister, are you here to play with me?' His voice was crisp and his voice was good, and that was my first impression of him. ”

"In other words, that was the first meeting between you and Mo Yi." Lin Xueqi looked at Duan Murphy, she didn't expect that the Mo Yi in Duan Murphy's mind was completely different from the current one, it was completely the opposite, no wonder she was very disappointed.

"Yes, since that day, I have often gone to the palace, I read to him, he told me about the palace, I also taught him some medical skills, let him help people heal and save people, and also taught him some basic poison techniques to protect himself. But I never thought that the original teenager would become what he is now. Duan Murphy covered his head, looking very painful.

Lin Xueqi opened her mouth, and the words stuck in her throat were still not spoken.

"Don't blame yourself for it, keep talking, how he stole his studies, how your relationship broke down." In fact, how the relationship broke down, they had already guessed, and it was just a superfluous move to say this.

Duan Murphy sighed and covered his forehead, "He, like Xue Qi, has become interested in medical skills, I accepted him as an apprentice, and he agreed rudely, I am very happy, because I finally accepted an apprentice I like."

But I didn't expect that day I would take him out of the palace and back to the top of the Snow Peak, and take him to see his senior sister Mingyu, but I didn't want to see the book that was full of deadly poisons during my absence.

I don't know why he is so much more interested in making drugs than in pharmaceuticals. By the time I saw it, he had almost finished the book, and I snatched it and scolded him, saying how could he read it. I thought he would listen, I thought he would. ”

As she spoke, Duan Murphy left a line of tears, her voice whimpered, and her speech began to slurre, until Lin Xueqi gave her a handkerchief, and she didn't get better.

He kept saying that he would not learn, but after I sent him back, he became strange, and every time I went to look for him, he was a little alarmed, until that day, I saw some medicine bottles from his courtyard, and by the smell of it, I could know what he had refined.

I don't know how much he hates the palace, I told him that this is not a joke, it will kill, not only did he not listen, but he also began to create his own poison, I couldn't save him, so I had to cut off relations with him, and since then the master-apprentice relationship has been separated. ”

"You cut off relations with him and never care about him in the future, so he began to intensify his efforts, poisoning Mo Xichen and causing him to be in a coma for a few years, don't you know? Duan Murphy, don't tell me you don't know! Lin Xueqi looked at Duan Murphy and frowned, she didn't know where she got her anger from.

"I'm ......" Duan Murphy's eyes dodged, she pursed her lips, and finally stood up and walked towards the door.

Lin Xueqi looked at her departing back and was silent, "Just now, I lost my temper." ”

Tonight, if her maidservant hadn't saved her, she would have died, but she was still murdering her, but if she hadn't murdered her, would she have known her mistakes?

Break off the relationship, ignore it from now on, and go their own way. Duan Murphy thought that Zi Moyi should not be out of line in this way, after all, her impression of him was still stuck when she first met him, and she naively thought that he was still that innocent child.

"I know how you're feeling at this moment, it's complicated, isn't it? You don't know how to face her. It's okay, from tomorrow onwards, it's all a new day, and today's events are all over. Mo Xichen comforted.

"Go to bed early, I'll have to wake up early tomorrow." With that, Mo Xichen stood up and walked towards the door.

Lin Xueqi looked at him, bit his lower lip, and seemed to muster up a lot of courage, "Don't leave tonight, accompany me." ”

That's what you're waiting for. Mo Xichen's heart was like a villain's ambition, he knew that tonight's incident was likely to make it difficult for Lin Xueqi to sleep, he calculated that Lin Xueqi might let him stay, not surprisingly, he guessed correctly.

"Okay, I'll be with you." Mo Xichen came to the side of the bed with a flat face, helped Lin Xueqi to lie down, moved a chair to sit down, looked at her uneasy eyes, and said with a smile, "Don't worry, with me, it will be fine, sleep in peace, good night." ”

"Okay, good night." Saying that, as soon as Lin Xueqi closed her eyes, she immediately fell asleep, tonight's incident had already exhausted her physical strength, and she didn't sleep all the time, just trying to find a time for Mo Xichen to stay.
