Chapter 1026

In the face of irrefutable evidence, Lan Yuxiang didn't dare to say any more, and just stood there with a calm face.

The pharmacists finished their elixir one after another, and everyone knew that no matter how well the elixir was refined, it was no better than Xia Yuanqiu, and they were hopeless to be the leader of this year's pharmacist competition.

After the meeting was over, Nangong Xinyue deliberately left Lan Yuxiang behind, and when everyone was gone, she sternly said to Lan Yuxiang, "Kneel down!"

Lan Yuxiang was taken aback for a moment, but he didn't dare to disobey, and knelt down in front of Nangong Xinyue with a plop.

The suzerain has always been very kind to her, treating her like his own daughter, but if he is strict, he is also very strict, especially when she does something wrong, punishing her is no less severe than anyone else, or even more severe.

She also always understood that it was because the suzerain had too high expectations of her, and hated iron for failure to punish her so severely. She had never complained about the suzerain.

But today, the way the suzerain looked at her was different from before. In those stern eyes, there was less distress and two more disappointment.

"Do you know why?" Nangong Xinyue asked.

Lan Yuxiang bit her lip and shook her head: "I don't know!"

"Do you really not know, or do you pretend not to know?" Nangong Xinyue frowned. She never imagined that the proud disciple whom she regarded as a treasure turned out to be such a vicious person who committed such evil deeds for her own selfishness. He still pleaded not guilty!

How could Lan Yuxiang admit it, she would never admit it: "I don't understand what master means, so I hope master will explain it clearly."

Nangong Xinyue raised her eyebrows, and she became more and more disappointed with Lan Yuxiang: "You have to make it clear, okay, this sect will give you a clear word. Tell me, did you put the poison in the wine that Xia Yuanqiu drank last night?"

Lan Yuxiang shook his head: "No, this disciple didn't do such a thing."

Nangong Xinyue snorted, and asked again: "This medicine cauldron today, did you change it?"

Lan Yuxiang shook his head again: "No, this matter has nothing to do with disciples."

Lan Yuxiang was very calm, very calm. It was this extraordinary calmness that made people even more suspicious. Nangong Xinyue was not a fool. She could tell who was telling the truth and who was lying.

She said: "Yuxiang, if you tell the truth, I will save face for you if I miss you as a master and apprentice, but if you are stubborn, don't blame me for not thinking of our years of mentoring and apprenticeship."

Nangong Xinyue used to be angry and severely punished her before, but she never said such words in front of Lan Yuxiang, which shocked Lan Yuxiang very much, she couldn't believe her ears, Shocked: "Master, are you going to ruin the friendship between you and me for an irrelevant person?"

"Irrelevant people? In your opinion, irrelevant people can be treated at will? Isn't the life of irrelevant people not life?"

Nangong Xinyue was heartbroken. The Lan Yuxiang in front of her was too strange, so strange that she couldn't see the true face of the person in front of her.

Perhaps, this is her true face.

Could it be that Lan Yuxiang has been pretending to be an obedient and sensible girl in front of her all these years?

Lan Yuxiang widened his eyes, looked at the unfamiliar master in front of him and said, "Then Xia Yuanqiu is just a cheap fox who only knows how to seduce men, and you actually scolded me for her?"

Nangong Xinyue said angrily: "Shut up, you are a lady from a great family, but you are so rude? What's wrong with that? Besides, Xia Yuanqiu is not the kind of person you said at all. How long are you going to lie to me?"
