No key?!
Su Xinmei's face was livid as she glared at Ye Zhen. "How can you not have the key? Master Qin gave you the key."
Ye Zhen looked at her with a smile. "Miss Su, may I ask when the herbs in the glass room were damaged?"
Su Xinmei pursed her lips tightly. "When we went there just now, we found that it had been destroyed. I'm afraid it was even earlier. I heard that you have been in the medicine field this afternoon."
"Yes." Ye Zhen admitted generously. "Does my presence in the medicine field prove that I damaged the herbs?"
"Who else could it be but you?" Su Xinmei asked.
Ye Zhen smiled. "I don't have the key. How can I get in?" Su Xinmei said aggressively, "Who knows if you'll get someone to make another key and hide it on your body!"
"I also want to know who else can get a new key!" Qi Jin asked faintly. The key to the glass room was very special. Except for the royal household, no craftsman could make the same key.
Su Xinmei knew that she had said something wrong. She lowered her head with a red face and whispered, "Apart from Lu Yaoyao, this student can't think of anyone else who would destroy the herbs in the glass room."
"Don't you have the key, too? Can't it be you who destroyed it? "Ye Zhen asked with a smile.
Su Xinmei's face changed. "You are slandering me."
Imperial Physician Huang's face was sullen. "Miss Su is your senior. How could she do such a thing?"
"Since she would not do such a thing, why would I destroy the herbs?" Ye Zhen looked at Imperial Physician Huang and asked in a deep voice.
"Since you say it's not you, what evidence do you have?" The curator asked.
Ye Zhen smiled and asked, "So, why was I the one who destroyed it? Where is the evidence? "
Su Xinmei said, "You have the key!"
"I have already returned the key to Master Qin." Ye Zhen said.
"Who would believe that you have returned it?" Su Xinmei asked.
Ye Zhen's face was still tranquil. She knew that the destruction of the glass room was aimed at her. However, such a frame-up was too crazy. The herbs were extremely precious and hard to cultivate. In order to deal with her, these people ignored the painstaking efforts of so many people and destroyed the herbs!
She was very angry and did not want to let this matter go so easily. They deserved the punishment they deserved!
"When these herbs were destroyed? You can ask the herb farmers in the fields. If you still don't believe me, you can ask Master Qin." Ye Zhen said coldly, "The herbs in the glass room are very precious. I hope that after the truth comes out, the person who destroyed the herbs will get the punishment she deserves!"
Qi Jin's expression was very ugly. When she heard that the medicinal herbs in the glass room had been destroyed, she had been suppressing her anger. "Where is Qin Fuzi?"
The curator sent someone to invite Qin Fuzi. After a while, someone came and said that Qin Fuzi was crying outside the glass door and refused to come in.
The curator stood up. "Yes."
Doctor Huang immediately followed the curator out.
Madam Huang snorted coldly and looked at Ye Zhen haughtily. It was as if she could already see the scene of Ye Zhen being expelled from the academy. "Us too."
Su Xinmei lowered her head and followed.
Ye Zhen looked back at Qi Jin. She believed that Qi Jin must be feeling the same as her at this time.
"Let's go and see to what extent the herbs have been destroyed." Qi Jin said.
When the group arrived at the medicine field, they could already hear the sound of Qin Fuzi's sad wailing from afar.
"My Fire Lotus, my Black Dragon Tongue! Who killed all of you?! " Qin Fuzi beat his chest and stamped his feet. When he thought that the Fire Lotus, which he had painstakingly picked, was now wilting, he was so sad that no matter how the people around him tried to persuade him, it was useless.
Ye Zhen pursed her lips and looked coldly at the mess in the glass room. The herbs had been uprooted, the petals of the Fire Lotus had been trampled, and not a single one of the dozens of precious herbs was left. All of them had been pulled out of their pots and thrown on the ground. Many of their roots had been broken.
Who was it that destroyed so many precious medicinal herbs just to deal with her? Did that person not know how difficult it was to raise these medicinal herbs?
"Lu Yaoyao, your heart is so vicious! You actually destroyed all the herbs in the glass room!" The curator was so angry that he gasped and glared at Ye Zhen.
Imperial Physician Huang said in a low voice, "Curator, is such a student still worthy of staying in the academy?"
"There is no evidence that it was Lu Yaoyao who destroyed the herbs. Imperial Physician Huang, how do you know it was her?" Qi Jin asked coldly.
Ye Zhen ignored them and walked over silently. She picked up the fire lotus from the ground and whispered, "Such a selfish and insidious person, even if he can deceive the heavens and the sea, he will not have a good life in the future."
"Lu Yaoyao, are you talking about yourself?" Huang Fuxiang looked at Ye Zhen contemptuously. She did not believe that the curator could not drive Lu Yaoyao out this time.
Ye Zhen glanced at the door lock of the glass room again. "The door lock is intact. It seems that someone came in with the key …"
"Enough!" Imperial Physician Huang snapped. "Lu Yaoyao, no need to find excuses. You destroyed the glass room. This matter cannot be settled by driving you out of the academy. You must be reported to the Empress Dowager. She will not let you off lightly."
Qin Fuzi's wailing suddenly stopped. He glared at Imperial Physician Huang and asked, "Who destroyed the glass room? I will tear that person to pieces! "
Imperial Physician Huang pointed to Ye Zhen. "It's her! Qin Fuzi, you should have known this day would come when you gave her the key. "
"Lu Yaoyao didn't have the key. How did she get in?" Qin Fuzi asked in a loud voice, "We have to get to the bottom of this matter. This morning, Lu Yaoyao returned the key to me. At noon, I also came to the glass room. There was nothing unusual with the herbs here. How could something happen when I turned around?"
Imperial Physician Huang's face changed slightly. "Qin Fuzi, you can't be so partial to her just because she is your student. You said that the herbs were fine at noon, but Lu Yaoyao came to the medicine field at noon. No one knows that she returned the key to you. This matter is strange."
"At noon, I also discussed with the Dean here when to send the Fire Lotus to the palace. If Imperial Physician Huang does not believe me, then go to the Dean and ask!" Qin Fuzi said angrily. "Don't think that Lu Yaoyao is easy to bully. You blame everything on her!"
Without waiting for Imperial Physician Huang to speak again, Qin Fuzi pointed to Huang Fuxiang and Su Xinmei. "Didn't you two come to the medicine field today? You are also suspicious! "
Huang Fuxiang immediately said in a panic, "I didn't come here. Qin Fuzi, you can't wrongly accuse me."
Su Xinmei originally wanted to say that the two of them only came to pick herbs, but now that Huang Fuxiang said it first, she could no longer explain.
She frowned at Huang Fuxiang, feeling a little flustered and annoyed.
