At this moment, the surrounding students were so shocked that they doubted their ears.
Madam Hua’s words overturned their imaginations time and time again. They couldn’t imagine how someone could be so ruthless!
He was simply not worthy of being a human!
Hua Lan was about to go crazy from anger. He almost rushed over to cover Madam Hua’s mouth and warned angrily, “The Eldest Prince is here. Don’t be rude!”
Eldest Prince? Madam Hua was slightly stunned and looked at the young master in white beside Daoist Xuan Cheng.
Although she didn’t recognize the Eldest Prince, in terms of bearing, only this young master in white stood out among so many young people. Therefore, he could only be the Eldest Prince Chu Yi.
The Eldest Prince was actually here!
Madam Hua was a little confused at first, but she quickly came back to her senses and stood there with a straight back. Her expression was more self-righteous and more confident. With the Eldest Prince here, Master would also be afraid… Her son could be saved!
Chu Yi raised his eyebrows and looked at her. He asked, “Who are you? What did you mean just now?!”
His voice was as gentle and pleasant as jade colliding, neither fast nor slow.
The surrounding students also wanted to know the truth and couldn’t help but look at the Hua couple.
“You…” Scholar Han, who was dressed in green, exclaimed in a low voice. His eyes widened as he hurriedly pursed his lips and looked at Madam Hua hesitantly.
Chu Yi turned to look at Scholar Han and asked, “You know this Madam?”
“Your Highness, 1 can’t say that 1 know her. I just met her once.” Scholar Han bowed to Chu Yi and replied, “She’s Madam Hua from the Myriad Herb Hall!”
He quickly glanced at Madam Hua and added, “It was Madam Hua’s son who was sent to the Myriad Herb Hall after he fell off the horse.”
The students were stunned at first, then there was an uproar. They looked at each other in shock.
At noon, they went to Wumen Square with Scholar Han to complain. In the end, the Eldest Prince came to Wumen Square to see them.
As the representative of a group of scholars, Scholar Han complained to the Eldest Prince about Second Lady Gu’s various crimes. He accused Gu Ce’s daughter of bewitching the Eldest Prince in order to avenge Gu Ce and using sorcery to harm others with malicious intentions.
The Eldest Prince immediately asked them, “Do you know what sorcery is?”
Of course, these students didn’t know.
Since they didn’t understand, how could they accuse others of abusing sorcery?
At that moment, Scholar Han and the others thought that the Eldest Prince wanted to protect Second Lady Gu. Unexpectedly, right on the heels of that, the Eldest Prince suggested that they come to Wuliang Temple together. He said that he would invite the Temple Master to the Myriad Herb Hall to take a look at Young Master Hua and see if he was sick or if he had been under some evil spell.
Everyone felt that the Eldest Prince had a point. Hence, they followed the Eldest Prince to Wuliang Temple.
They were with the Eldest Prince the entire time. Every move of the Eldest Prince was in front of them.
They had watched with their own eyes as the Eldest Prince asked Daoist Xuan Cheng about sorcery and saving people.
From the beginning to the end, the Eldest Prince had been very sincere. He was open and aboveboard, and no one could find fault with his words or actions.
These students gradually wavered. They felt that the Eldest Prince looked glorious and did things reasonably. He didn’t look like someone who had been bewitched by beauty.
Just as they were about to set off for the capital, Madam Hua suddenly rushed over and said those shocking words.
Many students were a little stunned. Only at this moment did they match the unbelievable story told by Madam Hua with the matter of the Myriad Herb Hall.
The one with the most complicated expression was probably Scholar Han.
Shock made his mind a little chaotic, and he couldn’t think calmly. He blurted out and questioned Madam Tang, “Madam Hua, wasn’t your son under an evil spell by Second Lady Gu?”
After saying this, Scholar Han felt that he had misspoken again. He hurriedly looked at Chu Yi and was slightly relieved to see that he didn’t show any unhappiness.
The other students around him had the same doubts as Scholar Han. They all looked back and forth between Hua Lan and Madam Hua.
Chu Yi gently stroked his sleeves, his every move as elegant as the clouds. He seemed to be muttering to himself, “So it’s the Hua family.”
Hua Lan held his breath for a moment and quickly restrained his violent emotions. Fie looked refined again.
“Your Highness.” Hua Lan bowed solemnly to Chu Yi and said, “My son has been weak and sickly since he was young. Now, his life is on the verge of death. It’s just fate. However, Madam loves her son so much that she has hysteria. What she said can’t be trusted..”
