After a while, Duoling took Duan Gujin and Meng Yun to meet the Monarch.
They met the Monarch in a luxurious room in the Imperial Palace. Upon seeing Duan Gujin, the Monarch expressed his gratitude for Duan Gujin's recent intervention and offered to reward him with some treasures.
Duan Gujin slightly furrowed his brows, and said to the Monarch, "Your Majesty, I have just examined your body and discovered that you have been poisoned with a chronic poison. This type of chronic poison is not ordinary; it requires prolonged exposure to gradually develop an incurable toxicity within the body!"
"What? Is that so?"
The Monarch looked terrified and quickly asked Duoling.
Duoling promptly nodded and said, "Yes! Yes! It should be so. I have been thinking about it for a long time and couldn't understand what was going on. Duan Gujin, do you know how to detoxify?"
Duan Gujin's eyes flickered, judging from Duoling's expression that he truly was unaware.
