“Is Prince Heng willing to be Gu Lingyue’s guarantor?” Gu Qingxue’s clear and cold voice rang out, successfully drawing everyone’s attention to her.
Prince Hengs fierce gaze also turned to Gu Qingxue. If looks could kill, he would have shot a hole through Gu Qingxue. “What do you mean by that, Doctor Gu?”
“Since Prince Heng feels that Gu Lingyue didn’t use the princess to harm the young prince, you should naturally vouch tor her. Otherwise, without any evidence, how can we believe Your Highness! words?” Gu Qingxue also looked at Prince Heng without fear.
Previously, Prince Heng had sacrificed his sister, the Noble Consort, in order to protect his residence. At the time, Gu Qingxue knew that her father’s death was related to Prince Hengs residence, but she had no choice but to bear with it.
Today, Gu Lingyue’s actions were equivalent to placing an opportunity to destroy Prince Heng in front of her. She naturally had to grab it.
“Your Majesty, the most important thing now is to arrest Gu Lingyue as soon as possible. Otherwise, if we let this vicious woman get away with it, who knows how many innocent people will be killed?” Imperial Duke Zhan stood up at this moment, cupped his hands, and bowed as he suggested.
Prince Heng realized that Gu Lingyue had become the target of public criticism and an indescribable sense of anxiety rose in his heart.
“Ahh!” Prince Heng was able to bear with it at first, but when he felt the pain, it was as if the pain was going to devour his mind. It was so painful that he could not help but groan.
Prince Hengs servant quickly reached out to support him and asked with deep concern, “Your Highness, are you alright?”
Prince Hengs eyes turned white from the pain, and his face turned ashen at a speed visible to the naked eye. “My chest, cough cough, my chest hurts!”
As he spoke, Prince Heng suddenly coughed violently. Then, in front of everyone, he suddenly vomited out a bunch of black bugs.
The black worms looked like the black maggots on the ground. The moment they landed on the ground, there was an indescribable stench that made the people around him scream and hurriedly retreat to keep a distance from him.
“All of you, stay away from him. What he vomited is a kind of poisonous insect from the Southern Border. If you get even a little bit infected, you’ll die!” Fei Yuge’s sharp senses recognized the venomous insects on the ground. She used her handkerchief to cover her mouth and nose after she finished speaking.
After everyone heard this, they all distanced themselves from Prince Heng and mimicked Fei Yuge, using handkerchiefs to cover their noses and mouths, afraid that they would be affected.
Even Prince Hengs servant was shocked by this scene. He subconsciously let go of Prince Heng and quickly dodged to the side.
“Save, save me… Blargh!” Prince Heng extended his hands helplessly to the crowd in an attempt to ask for help. However, everyone avoided him and looked at him in shock.
Prince Hengs mind had gone completely blank. He could even clearly feel the worms wriggling in his body. The feeling of sharing a body with other living creatures made him extremely terrified.
He had to spit out all these bugs without exception.
With this thought, Prince Heng used the last bit of his strength to reach for his throat.
“Wait a minute…!” An extremely bad feeling rose in Gu Qingxue’s heart. She wanted to stop him, but she was too late..
