Mr. Bai and Ms. Yu Danqing were unaware of these online rumors.

After they finished speaking, they said goodbye to Elder Lan and the others, and then left.

at the same time.

Hellow Military Academy.

After seeing the news online, the students in Ye Xingxue's class couldn't resist and rushed over to find him.

At this time, Ye Xingxue had not yet finished eating.

Everyone had a lot to say when they came over.

But when they saw Ye Xingxue enjoying her meal gracefully, everyone fell silent.

The words that were on the tip of my tongue were swallowed back down.

Ye Xingxue noticed the person outside the door, glanced over, and said calmly, "What is it?"

Before anyone in Night Snow's class could speak, his personal terminal beeped.

It was Ye Zeru who contacted him.

"Brother, someone is slandering you and your wife online. You should go online and check it out right away!"

Upon hearing this, Ye Xingxue basically guessed what had happened.

"Okay, I understand."

After ending the call, Ye Xingxue logged onto her personal computer and went online to take a look.

Just as he finished reading the gist of the content and was about to contact Yu Danqing, Yu Danqing contacted him first and told him what had happened in the private room.

After listening, Ye Xingxue said, "Okay, I understand. Please go online and check the news."

After ending the call, Ye Xingxue looked at her classmates who were waiting quietly outside the door and said calmly, "The results will be out soon, so don't spread the word yet."

The people in Night Snow Class had witnessed Ling Luo beating up Lin Yushen, so their impression of her improved a lot.

They felt she wasn't that kind of person.

Upon hearing Ye Xingxue's words, they immediately replied, "Yes, Your Highness!"

After saying that, he added, "Your Highness, please enjoy your meal. We won't disturb you any longer."

Then, he closed the door for Ye Xingxue and left.

Yan San didn't return to the palace with Ye Xingxue and Ling Luo a couple of days ago, so he didn't know what had happened between them and Elder Li.

Now that he's online and has seen the news, he's not angry. He said to Ye Xingxue, "They're practically courting death."

He didn't know what had happened, but he knew how amazing Ling Luo's potion-making skills were.

To actually make a fuss about this is just asking for trouble.

Ye Xingxue gave a faint "hmm" and didn't say anything.

"Your Highness, aren't you going to respond?"

"There's no rush yet."

If anyone should respond, it should be Yu Danqing and Bai Lao first.

On the other side.

Yu Danqing has already understood the situation online.

She snorted and told Elder Bai about it. After the two discussed it, Yu Danqing immediately went online and posted a message.

"Before the day before yesterday, I was too busy with work to have a chance to meet the Crown Princess. The fact that the Crown Princess took the place of the Crown Prince in the battle the day before yesterday morning was already a pleasant surprise, but what surprised me even more was the Crown Princess's understanding of medicinal plants."

"With the Crown Princess's guidance, Bai Lao and I spent a day and two nights successfully developing this stain remover!"

"This morning, after we successfully prepared the medicine, we specifically contacted the Crown Princess to thank her and invite her to dinner. Unexpectedly, His Highness the Crown Prince said that the Crown Princess had gone into seclusion to study."

"It seems that the dinner invitation will have to wait until the Crown Princess finishes her seclusion."

She had already posted her update when Mr. Bai reposted it.

“A while ago, my grandson told me that a younger peer had taught him a lot about medicine, but he didn’t say who it was. It wasn’t until he contacted me just now that I realized that the peer my grandson was talking about was the Crown Princess.”

"Under the Crown Princess's guidance, my grandson has made rapid progress recently. It seems that besides this matter, I'll have to invite the Crown Princess to dinner separately as well, hahaha~"

Bai Lao had just reposted it when Bai Ying liked it.

The netizens of the Lingliu Empire have indeed been waiting for Ling Luo, Ye Xingxue, Bai Lao, and Yu Danqing to send a message to respond to this matter.

They did not mention the post by Xiao Ma.

But everyone seems to think that they are actually responding to this matter.

In no time, netizens of the Lingliu Empire went crazy, leaving comments and asking what exactly was going on with Xiao Ma's post.

Upon seeing the comments, Yu Danqing replied: "I only just learned about the post by Assistant Li. We worked hard for two nights and a day, and now that we have a result, Bai Lao and I are very happy and don't need anyone else to feel sorry for us."

"As for the so-called 'truth,' we just compared the prescriptions and found that the herbs used in the Crown Princess's prescription and Master Zhang's prescription are indeed the same. However, the usage, dosage, and order of the herbs are very different."

"The changes are so drastic that it is no longer the same prescription. I believe that anyone who studies pharmacy understands this."

"In addition, I believe that if a younger generation is more knowledgeable than us, we should humbly accept it, instead of relying on our seniority and, after discovering something, immediately questioning whether the younger generation is simply copying others without even trying it ourselves."

Yu Danqing's last sentence is the key.

After seeing this, netizens roughly understood what had happened.

People flocked to Xiao Ma's account to mock him.

In the hearts of netizens of the Imperial Empire, Elder Li's potion-making skills are higher than those of Elder Bai and Yu Danqing.

They couldn't understand why, if Ling Luo's formula was truly effective, the first person to successfully formulate it wasn't Elder Li, but rather Elder Bai and Yu Danqing.

Now you understand what happened.

But they refused to believe it.

They also rushed to Xiao Ma and Li Lao's accounts to send them private messages, hoping they could give them an explanation.

Li Lao and the others left the restaurant before finishing their meal, heading back to analyze and study the ingredients of the medicine given to them by Bai Lao.

They discovered that the ingredients of the medicine indeed came from the more than twenty kinds of medicinal plants that Ling Luo had mentioned.

They continued their research according to Ling Luo's instructions.

Mr. Li was aware of the online rumors, but made no response.

They studied it for another afternoon.

When they discovered that the fundamental research was flawed, they realized something was wrong.

He hadn't studied it in detail before, but now that he has, he finds that the medicine still doesn't work.

Old Lan and his colleagues also noticed this.

As for why Elder Bai and his team were able to succeed, perhaps...

It's because the prescriptions they used were different.

Upon hearing this, Xiao Ma said, "Could it be that Elder Bai and the others were able to concoct the potion because it had nothing to do with the Crown Princess? Was it just that the royal family asked them to do it to save face?"

Mr. Li had also thought about this.

But if that were really the case, it's impossible for Old Bai to involve his own grandson.

Furthermore, the medicinal plants used by Elder Bai and the others did indeed include creeping figs, just as Ling Luo had said.

Thinking of this, Old Li calmed down and said coldly, "It was the Crown Princess who tricked us. The prescription she gave us was fake, but the prescription she gave to Yu Danqing and the others was real."

Xiao Ma was stunned for a moment: "So, the Crown Princess is really that amazing?"

Although Mr. Li was unwilling to admit it, it seemed to be the truth.

Thinking of this, Old Li looked at Xiao Ma and said coldly, "You handle the things online yourself."

Xiao Ma panicked: "Teacher, can't we just reveal to the public that the Crown Princess tricked us? She's still a junior, how dare she treat you and the other masters like this—"

If he actually goes up and apologizes after this incident has blown up so much, he will become the target of the entire empire!

"And then let everyone know that we're abusing our seniority? Besides, even if she's a junior, she's still the Crown Princess of an empire. If, as the Crown Princess, she doesn't have any backbone when questioned, that would be a disgrace to the empire!"

"If this gets out, we'll be the only ones who lose face!"

He never showed his face in this matter from beginning to end; he could pretend he knew nothing about it.

Even if netizens speculate that he pushed Xiao Ma out as a shield, it's just speculation. There's no evidence, so netizens can't do anything to him.

Just as he was thinking about this...

His personal computer beeped.

Someone posted a video on his account.

He frowned and clicked on it.

But the moment he saw the video, his expression turned extremely ugly.

The video shows his conversation with Mr. Bai at the restaurant.

Although the other party didn't say anything, he wasn't stupid.

The moment he saw the video, he guessed that the person who posted it was Ye Xingxue.

He sent him this video to force him to apologize in person.
