, just continued to satisfy his curiosity: "So, the grace of saving life is probably fake."
Qin Mo remained silent.
Yuan Buwei understood immediately.
No need to ask more questions.
Many times, the authorities are often confused and blinded by a leaf. And once the leaf is uncovered, the truth is always unbearable.
And all these calculations may have been unfolded when Qin Mo came to the original body.
But...
"Nine years ago, I was just a little prince who fled south in a hurry. What virtue and what ability can make people pay so much attention?"
Yuan Buwei's words seemed to be questioning, but somehow, Qin Mo felt that he had seen through everything.
He had a calm attitude, and his tone seemed to be a casual conversation. Every word was plain, and there was even a smile on his lips, but it brought great pressure to Qin Mo.
Just facing the eyes of the prince, he always had a premonition that he would succumb sooner or later.
Qin Mo could sense the hesitation in his heart.
...No, I can't let His Royal Highness continue talking!
"Clang!"
A clear sound.
Qin Mo untied the black knife from his waist and put it in front of him. At the same time, his forehead hit the ground heavily.
Blood flowed all over his face.
He didn't wipe it off, just raised his head and looked at Yuan Buwei silently. In his vision blurred by blood, he only saw a pair of calm and indifferent eyes.
"I have failed His Royal Highness. Let His Royal Highness deal with it."
Qin Mo immediately closed his mouth tightly after repeating what he had said before in a muffled voice. He was deeply afraid that he would accidentally say something he shouldn't say in the eyes of His Royal Highness who seemed to see through everything.
... He made the choice long ago. If he betrayed the prince first and then betrayed that person because of a momentary hesitation, what would be the meaning of what he had done over the years?
His reaction was not unexpected by Yuan Buwei at all.
The original Qi Xuan was not bad to Qin Mo. On the surface, they were master and servant, but in fact, they were as close as brothers. After ascending the throne, he even handed over the position of the commander of the imperial guards to him. This was an important position that was directly responsible for the safety of the entire palace. If he was not an absolutely trusted confidant, how could he be assured to hand it over to him?
Trusted so much, and with the feelings of following for many years and sharing life and death on the battlefield, if Qin Mo was willing, he could have chosen to completely surrender to Qi Xuan and reveal the plan of the person behind the scenes. With Qi Xuan's generosity and the friendship between the two for many years, he would certainly forgive him.
If he didn't want to betray his old master, he could also be loyal to his subjects first, and then be loyal to his brothers. At least save Qi Xuan's life.
But he just kept silent, and at the critical moment of forcing the palace, he turned against Qi Xuan and sent Qi Xuan into the most complete desperate situation.
This has proved his loyalty and sincerity.
- Of course, it was to another person.
If the real Qi Xuan was here, I'm afraid he would be angry and indignant, unable to restrain himself. Qin Mo's attitude of waiting to be killed and being loyal and righteous would only make him more angry. Perhaps this would trigger the strange poison in his body, and he would be controlled by anger again and do something irreversible.
——Has the person in front of him ever thought about this?
When Yuan Buwei abandoned his detached perspective and put himself into the role of Qi Xuan, he found that there were so many conspiracies and tricks around him, and his overly pure heart could not bear these truths. No wonder Qi Xuan became so suspicious and violent later.
I'm afraid it's not just because of poisoning.
The study was quiet.
Only Qin Mo's rapid and nervous breathing could be heard.
The young man's originally neat robe had become messy at this time, his forehead was bloody, and he put the black scimitar in front of him. He raised his head slightly and put on a posture of waiting to be killed.
It seemed that Yuan Buwei could draw the sword at any time and then... kill him!
Yuan Buwei did not move, but just looked at him calmly.
This silent, cold, and unsmiling face is the same as before, and looks as loyal and reliable as ever. However, Yuan Buwei seemed to see another face full of sinister calculations behind the scenes from this face.
...Even if the original Qi Xuan was talented and knowledgeable, how could he have expected that someone would start to lay out early and secretly spy on him when he was the weakest and most embarrassed?
"Pa, pa, pa."
Yuan Buwei suddenly clapped his hands lightly.
"Loyalty is admirable." He had no anger on his face, and his tone of admiration was completely sincere.
This strange reaction made Qin Mo suspicious.
After nine years of getting along, he asked himself that he knew this prince very well. The other party did have a broad mind and temperament that encompassed the world. He could often see the big picture in many major events. His military talent was even more outstanding. He could see ten or a hundred steps in one step.
But no one is perfect, and he is not good at worldly human feelings.
To be precise, he spent too much of his mind on the battlefield, and he had the emperor's unremitting support behind him. No one's slander and slander had ever caused the emperor to misunderstand him and affected him on the front line.
He was protected by the emperor tightly. Over time, he lost his keenness in understanding people's hearts. He had a kind of purity that was rare in the royal family.
But today, he made Qin Mo unable to see through him.
Seeing this, Yuan Buwei said lightly: "Why, do you think I will force you to ask who is behind this?"
Qin Mo raised his head in astonishment, and his expression changed for the first time: "Your Highness?"
Yuan Buwei reached out and picked up the black scimitar, stroked the handle with his palm, and suddenly pulled out the scimitar.
"Don't be nervous, I won't kill you. I don't want to dig out any secrets from you. I'm just curious about one thing..."
The scimitar was slowly drawn out, and the instantaneous brightness was extremely dazzling.
In the light of the knife, a smile flashed across the man's cold face. In Qin Mo's eyes, it was indescribably bad.
In an instant, a bad premonition suddenly jumped into his heart, and Qin Mo suddenly widened his eyes.

After trying to find out the answer he wanted from Qin Mo, he further verified Yuan Buwei's guess about the mastermind behind the scenes, and he released System 999 again:
"I'm here, where did Qi Xuan's soul go?"
Faced with this man who threw it away after use and was ruthless, System 999 wanted to refuse directly.
There is a saying in human beings that if you eat someone's food, you will be soft-hearted, and if you take someone's money, you will be short-handed. You have to show your attitude when asking someone to do something. However, this host is simply not a human!
Before, he locked it in a small dark room without blinking an eye, and released it when he needed it, using it as a universal search engine, and it was natural, without any guilt.
After being tricked once, System 999 is not as stupid as before, and has learned to bargain: [The host must agree first, and cannot block this system after asking questions. ]
Yuan Buwei: "... Hmm?"
System 999 saw that there was a chance, and immediately put his hands on his hips proudly: [Not only this time, if the host still wants to maintain a good relationship with the system and get the most timely system service, you can no longer block this system in the future. ]
...Does the host think it is still the original simple System 999? No, after two rounds in the small black room, it has become [Super Evolution·System 999]!
Yuan Buwei: "Then forget it."
Without a second of hesitation, Yuan Buwei grabbed the consciousness bound to the soul and was about to throw it into the small black room again. He would rather explore the answer himself than endure a noisy system all the time.
[Wait, wait, wait, I say! ] Seeing that he was about to go to the prison for the third time, System 999 was simply crazy, [Where did Qi Xuan's soul go, this system doesn't know. ]
Yuan Buwei immediately became interested: "You don't know either? Didn't you choose this identity?"
[It wasn't this system that took the initiative to choose him, but he took the initiative to give up his identity. ]
After a period of silence, System 999 chose to tell the truth. This is a treatment that none of the hosts had before.
[In this sea of universe, there are always many mysterious and incomprehensible phenomena in billions of worlds. For example, the tide of the river of destiny. If each drop of water corresponds to a person, ordinary people would not be able to see the water drops in the river of destiny in advance, but there are always some people who, because of some accidents, see the light and shadow refracted by the water drops at a certain moment - that is, they know the fragments of their future destiny in advance. Qi Xuan is probably such a person. ]
Yuan Buwei roughly understood: "... Then, he chose to give up and leave directly?"
System 999 gave a positive answer: [Therefore, the host can take over his life. ]
[As for Qi Xuan's soul, perhaps he left this small world with the help of the power of the tide of destiny, or perhaps he directly entered the reincarnation, which this system cannot detect. ]
"It seems that you are not completely useless." Yuan Buwei praised.
...At this time, he didn't seem to mind System 999's chattering. Maybe he even wanted it to say more.
...It was very real.
After being praised by him, System 999 was rarely excited: [That's right, this system knows a lot. ]
After saying that, System 999 reacted. ω思ωRabbitω网ω
——Isn't this the way it used to train those hosts in the past? If they do well, they will be encouraged more, and if they do not do well, they will be severely punished. Over time, the host will naturally become obedient.
Originally, it was about to use the same routine on Yuan Buwei, but who knew that he would be directly locked up in a small dark room.
Now...is it being used by the host in reverse?
Before System 999 could figure it out completely, Yuan Buwei said again: "Keep it up, I won't block you this time."
At least give it a little sweetness, so that the system will be more active in answering questions next time.
System 999: ...
...It's really a routine, it's confirmed.
It wanted to be tough and lock the host in the dark room, but it couldn't control its curiosity: [Host, why are you asking about Qi Xuan's whereabouts? Do you want to return the ownership of this body to him? ]
"No, just to confirm it." Yuan Buwei pondered, "Does this body allow me to do whatever I want..."
Chapter 6 Tyrant 6
At the other end of the General's Mansion, Yuanzhi Pavilion.
Because the old illness of His Royal Highness the Crown Prince relapsed, the Emperor specially sent a group of imperial doctors to stay in the General's Mansion to treat the Crown Prince.
And Yuanzhi Pavilion is the place to accommodate a group of imperial doctors.
The dusk mist had not yet dissipated, and several imperial doctors were calmly directing the medicine boys to collect the dried medicinal materials in the yard, with a leisurely look.
"Bang——"
Suddenly, there was a loud noise, and the thick courtyard door flew in.
The courtyard door slammed heavily on the ground, and a pile of dust and broken soil hit them head-on. They were so shocked that they turned around to look.
A very familiar figure strode in.
"His Royal Highness the Crown Prince?!"
The astonished expressions on the faces of the imperial doctors just appeared, and then turned into fear.
The Crown Prince who appeared in front of them had a completely different look from before.
His eyes were as dark as thick ink, his thin lips were pursed into a line, and his tight jawline looked extremely cold. His handsome and flawless facial features were covered with a layer of frost, and the murderous aura surging around him almost solidified into substance.
Yuan Buwei held the long sword from Qin Mo upside down, and the sharp blade flashed a bright cold light, which made people tremble with fear.
Someone trembled and said, "Your Highness, what happened?"
He stroked the handle of the sword with his hand, and his eyes swept over, exuding a fascinating anger and murderous intent, and a smile without warmth appeared on his lips.
"You poisoned me, and you dare to ask me what happened?"
The imperial doctors: "???"
... When did the prince get poisoned? Could it be that they didn't wake up today, so they heard it wrong... No, the point is that this has nothing to do with them!
Just reacted, before he could explain, the knife light in front of him was cold, reflecting the young man's face as cold as ice and snow:
"Good, very good! If it weren't for Commander Qin's accidental discovery, I'm afraid I would have been cured to death by you in this muddle!"
The imperial doctors: "???????"
... What? Commander Qin said? ! The dog thief harmed me! ! !
After being confused, he
