Qin Zhixi raised her eyebrows slightly, the anger on her face subsided, and an unfathomable smile appeared instead.

But I saw a group of mermaids rushing in. The person at the head is Qin Yueyang's maid Pothos. Behind the green pothos was a group of maids and guards of the Qin Mansion. Two of the guards grabbed Diao's hands on the left and the right, as if they were holding a prisoner with an unforgivable crime.

"What are you doing, don't let her go soon!" Seeing this, Qin Yueyang immediately shouted in a deep voice. Ah Diao was his guest, and even more so his boss's sister, how could he tolerate Ah Diao being treated like this in the Qin Mansion?

Ye Qingchen didn't say anything, but his expression was as cold as frost.

The guards didn't dare to disobey Qin Yueyang's will, and hurriedly let Ah Diao go.

"Young Master, Ah Diao stole the Seven Star Flowers in Xinya Garden. Pothos said coldly.

Hearing this, all the people of the Qin family present except Ye Qingchen all had strange expressions on their faces.

"I didn't!" Diao retorted, rubbing his pinched hands.

"You still quibble, the stolen seven-star flower in Xinya Garden was found on your body. A maid behind the pothos accused.

"Yes, and we also saw you enter the Xinya Garden, and you have been in front of the Seven Star Flowers for a long time. One of the guards spoke.

"Seven Star Flowers, isn't that Yueyang's mother's favorite flower before her death?" Qin Zhixi said quietly.

Ye Qingchen glanced at Qin Zhixi indifferently, and then turned his gaze to Qin Yueyang. Qin Yueyang's face was expressionless at the moment, and there was a hint of coldness on her handsome and clean face.

"Diao, tell me what's going on. Ye Qingchen said lightly. Diao is pure in nature, and it is absolutely impossible to steal. At this point, someone must have framed him.

"Sister Ye, I didn't steal it. Ah Diao looked at Ye Qingchen, the corners of his mouth sank, and his voice was dyed with a hint of crying.

"It's okay, I know you didn't do it. Tell your sister what happened. Ye Qingchen comforted softly. Her voice seemed to have an inexplicable magic, and Ah Diao gradually calmed down.

"When I was walking around the house, I overheard someone saying that the flowers in Xinya Garden are the most beautiful and the most beautiful, so I went to take a look. There were a lot of flowers and plants in there, but it was still the most beautiful of the Seven Star Flowers, so I stayed in front of the Seven Star Flowers for a while. But I didn't pick it up, and I went out after reading it. Not long after I came out, I heard that the Seven Star Flower had been stolen, and I was still wondering how it had been stolen when it was fine just now. Then a few people came to me and said that they wanted to search my body, and I resisted, but they grabbed me and didn't let me move, and later, they searched for the Seven Star Flower on me. However, I did not steal it, and the Seven Stars bloomed so beautifully there, how could I bear to take it off? However, I do not know why the Seven Stars are in my sleeve. ”

After Ye Qingchen listened, his eyes became colder.

"Diao, you tell Sister Ye, among these people, who searched your body, and who grabbed you and didn't let you move?" Ye Qingchen's voice was as cold as ice.

"She, and him... Diao looked around and pointed to a few people. Finally, she looked at the pothos in front of her and said, "And the pothos." ”

"Good. Ye Qingchen nodded. "You said that the flower was the seven-star flower stolen by Ah Diao, is there any evidence?"

"The Seven Star Flower was found from Diao's body, the evidence is ironclad, do you need other evidence?" said Lu Luo.

"What's the trouble of wanting to add sin?"

"Miss Ye is right, just because the Seven Star Flower was found from Ah Diao's body, it does not mean that Ah Diao is the murderer. However, the Seven Star Flower was Aunt Xinya's favorite during her lifetime, and it was also an extremely precious spiritual plant, so it was picked and must be investigated. Qin Zhixi said.

"Miss Zhixi, we have all seen Diao enter Xinya Garden with our own eyes, and only Diao has entered today, and there is no one else except her. ”

"Yes, there is no doubt that Diao is the murderer, and we have seen it with our own eyes. ”

......

The maids and guards spoke one after another, and the spearhead was all pointed at Ah Diao.

For a time, Diao became the target of everyone.

"This... Qin Zhixi frowned, and her face was embarrassed.

"This person is dressed so plainly, it must be the first time to come to a place like our Qin Mansion. When you see the Seven Star Flowers, you may think that it is a rural place, and you can pick it casually. ”

"Not bad. This woman is ugly, and her mood must be the same as her appearance. ”

"Everyone in the house knows that the seven-star flowers in Xinya Garden can't be picked, and they have been safe and sound for so many years, why did something happen to her when she came?"

......

Among the young people of the Qin family present, several of them received Qin Zhixi's eyes and spoke one after another.

"Shut up for me! I believe this matter was not done by Diao! You guys hurry up and get out of here!" Qin Yueyang suddenly roared at this time, and everyone was startled by his momentum, and they all fell silent.

Qin Zhixi smiled coldly, others were afraid of Qin Yueyang, but she was not afraid.

"No matter who did it, then this matter must be investigated no matter what, isn't it? Otherwise, someone stole the Seven Star Flower this time, and someone will steal other things next time, wouldn't my Qin Mansion have no rules?"

"I don't, Sister Ye, Ah Diao doesn't, Ah Diao will never steal!" Ah Diao sat on the ground weakly and cried loudly. She has lived with her grandfather in the thunderstorm grassland since she was a child, and the people there are kind and simple, and they have never been so sinister and framed.

Ye Qingchen couldn't bear it, but he also understood that the weak eat the strong, and people's hearts are sinister. This is always the way the world has always been. If Diao wants to grow, he must endure the wind and rain, but the process will be extremely painful.

Ye Qingchen tugged at Qin Yueyang's sleeve and shook his head lightly at him.

She knew that Qin Yueyang wanted to help them, but she preferred to let the truth come out and give Ah Diao a clean slate!

"You say, Ah Diao stole the Seven Star Flower, right? So, let me ask, among these people here today, who has ever touched the Seven Star Flower?"

"I... One of the guards said weakly.

"Okay, is there anyone else?" Ye Qingchen then asked.

No one responded.

"There is a special powder on the petals of the Seven Star Flower, which cannot be washed off within three days if it is stained with this powder. In addition, the powder of the Seven Star Flower will appear light purple when it encounters the water soaked in Shou Wu. Ye Qingchen said leisurely, "Who picked the Seven Star Flower, you will know if you try it." ”

Qin Yueyang looked at Ye Qingchen and stopped talking.

The pothos lowered her face slightly, and the corners of her lips hooked up with a sneer of disdain. Qin Zhixi raised her eyebrows slightly, and a touch of sarcasm quickly crossed her eyes.

"However, for the sake of fairness, I still need to bother Old Man Qin to invite an experienced pharmacist from the house to come over. ”

"Someone, go and ask the Great Elder. Old Man Qin commanded. Everyone was stunned. The Great Elder is the only Dan Master of the Qin family, and his status is noble, and the old family master actually invited the Great Elder to come over for such a small matter.
