Qi Jin had already heard about this when she entered the school. Before coming here, she had asked a few people about it, including Lu Yaoyao. She knew very well that the truth was not what Teacher Tu and Huang Fuxiang had said.
Hearing that Huang Fuxiang still had not told the truth about her shooting the arrow from behind, Qi Jin's face darkened and her gaze sharpened. "Miss Huang, did Lu Yaoyao shoot the arrow at you first?"
The Curator frowned and looked at Qi Jin. "Doctor Qi, the truth is clear. Even Teacher Tu saw it. What else is there to ask?"
Qi Jin looked at Teacher Tu coldly. "Teacher Tu, why did I hear that Huang Fuxiang shot the arrow at Lu Yaoyao's back first and that she couldn't control the arrow?"
Teacher Tu coughed lightly. "I didn't see Huang Fuxiang shoot the arrow …"
"You didn't see it or she didn't do it. These are two different truths." Qi Jin immediately said sternly, "Our school will not tolerate any student who kills another student, nor will we tolerate any teacher who is biased."
The Curator frowned at Qi Jin. "Doctor Qi, what do you mean by that?"
Qi Jin said in a low voice, "Curator, we shouldn't make a hasty decision on this matter. We should investigate the truth."
"What do you mean by that? Are you saying that we have wronged Lu Yaoyao? "Mother Huang immediately asked sharply.
"If Huang Fuxiang hadn't shot the arrow at Lu Yaoyao first, why would Lu Yaoyao be so frightened that she would retaliate with the arrow? Stabbing someone in the back is despicable and shameless! If Lu Yaoyao hadn't dodged the arrow, who would answer to the Lu family? Are the lives of other girls worthless? "Qi Jin's face darkened as she asked sternly.
Huang Fuxiang's shoulders trembled and she hid behind Mother Huang.
Teacher Tu said, "Even so, Lu Yaoyao is fine. How could she shoot four arrows in a row …"
"So, she was lucky to have dodged the arrow, so she couldn't have been frightened into retaliating?" Qi Jin asked immediately.
Teacher Tu was speechless and didn't know how to refute.
The Curator looked at Teacher Tu and asked, "What is going on?"
Mother Huang said coldly, "This is my daughter's fault. Where is Lu Yaoyao? Call her over. I want to see how the Lu Clan raised their daughter to have such a vulgar and barbaric girl."
If it was in the past, she naturally would not dare to say such words. She had heard that Imperial Consort Lu was grounded by the Emperor. Did she still need to be afraid of an Imperial Consort that had already fallen out of favor?
"Madame Huang." Qi Jin said calmly, "No matter how rude the girls from other families are, they would never stab someone in the back."
Madam Huang pointed at Qi Jin and was about to scold her. But when she remembered that Qi Jin was the Empress Dowager's favorite, she swallowed her words. "Doctor Qi, is this how you side with your student?"
"I'm just stating the facts," Qi Jin said.
"Since Doctor Qi likes to talk about things as they are, then let's talk about things as they are." A woman about the same age as Qi Jin came in from outside the door, followed by Su Xinmei.
This woman was the other female medical officer in the Jin Kingdom's Imperial Palace. Although her position was below Qi Jin's, she had always been at odds with Qi Jin.
"Doctor Huang, what are you doing here?" Qi Jin raised her eyebrows and asked. Doctor Huang was not teaching at the Medical Center, nor was she in the Imperial Palace. Why would she appear at the Academy?
"Fortunately, I came today. Otherwise, I don't know how Doctor Qi would deal with my niece." Doctor Huang said coldly. Her figure was thin, and her eyes were filled with a harsh indifference.
Qi Jin smiled, "Why would I bother with a junior? It's just that … I don't think she's suitable to stay at the Medical Center."
"Hehe, then who's suitable to stay? That Lu Yaoyao you speak of? A student who destroyed the most precious glass room of the Medical Center to such an extent can still stay. Doctor Qi, you're really fair. "Doctor Huang sneered.
"Doctor Huang, what do you mean by that? What happened to the glass room? "The curator immediately asked.
Su Xinmei bowed her head and said in a low voice, "Curator, today Doctor Huang came to retrieve the Fire Lotus. When we went to the glass room, we found that the herbs inside had been uprooted. Even if we wanted to replant them … I'm afraid it's impossible to save them."
The curator stood up angrily, his old face flushed red. "Who is it? Who dares to destroy the precious herbs in the glass room? That's a capital crime! "
Qi Jin calmly looked at Su Xinmei. "There are only three keys to the glass room. One is with me, one is with Su Jiaoyin, and the last one is with Qin Fuzi. Su Jiaoyin, who do you think destroyed the glass room?"
"Doctor Qi, this student heard that Qin Fuzi gave the key to Lu Yaoyao." Su Xinmei whispered.
"So, you want to say that Lu Yaoyao did it?" Qi Jin chuckled. "How do you know she has the key?"
Doctor Huang said coldly, "Whether it's her or not, just find her and ask her."
The curator immediately ordered, "Go and call Lu Yaoyao."
Ye Zhen had long guessed that the incident that scared Huang Fuxiang like that today would not be easy to pass. She was not afraid of Huang Fuxiang making trouble. Her Huang family was not something she could not afford to offend. If she really made a fuss, the Huang family was not as powerful as the Lu family today.
She came to the curator's office and entered the door. Several pairs of eyes stared straight at her, especially the woman standing in front of Huang Fuxiang, who stared at her like a sieve.
"You are Lu Yaoyao?" The curator looked at Ye Zhen, his pair of white, thick eyebrows wrinkled. "Is it you who hurt Huang Fuxiang with an arrow?"
Ye Zhen bowed respectfully. "Curator, I was lucky to survive. In my anger, I lost control of the bow and arrow in my hand. Just like Miss Huang, I don't know why she shot an arrow at my back. This is inexplicable."
Huang Fuxiang pointed to Ye Zhen and cried, "You did it on purpose!"
"Was it not on purpose that you shot an arrow at my back?" Ye Zhen asked rhetorically.
"No! How did I know it would hit you? "Huang Fuxiang said confidently.
Qi Jin looked at her sternly. "Didn't you say you didn't shoot an arrow at Lu Yaoyao's back?"
Huang Fuxiang's face turned pale and she hurriedly looked at Madam Huang.
"The matter of shooting arrows can be put aside for the time being. The most important thing now is the destruction of the glasshouse." Doctor Huang said coldly. "Lu Yaoyao, why did you destroy the herbs in the glasshouse?"
Ye Zhen looked at Doctor Huang in surprise. "I can't get into the glasshouse. How did I destroy the herbs inside?"
"You are lying. Why can't you get in if you have the key?" Su Xinmei asked immediately.
"I … I don't have the key." Ye Zhen looked innocent. She really didn't have the key to the glasshouse. Early this morning, she returned the key to Qin Fuzi.
