The scumbag wanted to wipe out the whole family, but rebirth ruined him!

When Yu Ying'er heard Zhao Huayin's scolding, she shrank back.

"I...I am...I didn't..."

I couldn't utter a complete sentence for a long time.

"You tell me!"

Yan Qi said to Mu Xiao behind him.

Mu Xiao stepped forward and bowed.

"The guard reported that this woman wanted to send some food to a prisoner named Zhou Pei in the prison, but a jade pendant of excellent quality was found hidden in the food.

When the truth was revealed, the woman offered a large sum of money to the guards to give the jade pendant to the prisoner.

However, your Highness's rule is very strict, and no one in the city defense camp dares to act privately."

After Mu Xiao finished speaking, he looked at Yan Qi with great pride. Today, in front of Miss Zhao, he must take the initiative to talk about his master's merits.

After hearing what Mu Xiao said, Zhao Huayin became even more silent. It seemed that the rumors were true.

Seeing Zhao Huayin's reaction, Yan Qi wanted to step forward and kick Mu Xiao right away.

"Let's get down to business!"

Yan Qi said in a deep voice.

Upon hearing this, Mu Xiao immediately said seriously,

"According to her account, she was from the Shangshu Mansion and was delivering this item on behalf of Miss Zhao. However, when her master said he wanted to confront Miss Zhao, she became obviously flustered.

The master saw through this woman and knew that she must have framed Miss Zhao, so he brought her to the Shangshu Mansion and asked Lord Zhao and Miss Zhao to confirm it. "

"Reporting to Your Highness, this woman is indeed from my house."

Minister Zhao bowed to Yan Qi and said,

"Yinyin was kind-hearted. When she was ten years old, she went to the Fahua Temple with her mother to burn incense. On the way back, she saved an orphan girl who was being bullied by a bully.

This girl has been raised in our house, and Yinyin has always treated her as her own sister.

It is possible that Yinyin asked her to give something to someone else, but this Mingyuejue was left to her by Yinyin's grandfather, and she would never give it to anyone else. Your Highness, please understand!"

After listening to what Minister Zhao said, Yan Qi said nothing, but turned his gaze to Zhao Huayin.

"I have always carefully kept the Mingyue Jue given by my grandfather. I have never given it to anyone else, and I will never give it to anyone else!"

Zhao Huayin bowed softly, but her tone was unusually firm.

"So, this woman is stealing and framing someone?"

Yan Qi's voice was slightly cold, and it sounded like thunder to Yu Ying'er's ears!

If these charges were proven, I would be dead.

"I didn't, I didn't, I didn't steal! It was my sister who said that Mr. Zhou was a very good man.

I thought that Master Zhou was suffering in prison, and if I sent my sister's token to him, Master Zhou would have something to remember him by.

I'm thinking about my sister!"

"Humph!"

Zhao Huayin sneered.

"From what you said, you are clearly worried about Mr. Zhou, how come you are worried about me? If you are worried about him,

You could just give your own things away, but why are you giving my things away?"

"Mr. Zhou is the one my sister likes. How can I compete with her?"

Yu Ying'er had an innocent look on her face, tears in her eyes, and looked very fragile.

"presumptuous!"

Before Zhao Huayin could speak, Minister Zhao had already shouted angrily.

"Who told you that Yinyin likes that guy? A girl's reputation is so important. Are you trying to ruin Yinyin's reputation?"

Zhao Huayin stepped forward, pulled Minister Zhao's arm, and comforted him softly.

"Father, don't be angry. Since the Fourth Prince is here, I will explain the matter clearly."

"Your Highness, please understand! I have only seen the scholar's calligraphy and paintings in Pin Ya Ju. Out of admiration for his excellent works, I once exchanged a few of his calligraphy and paintings with him in Pin Ya Ju. That's all."

"that is it?"

Yan Qi asked softly.

Mu Xiao couldn't help but look at Yan Qi. How could his master be so gentle?

"Yes. Because I later discovered that paintings do not represent a person's character. I should refuse to associate with people with bad intentions, right?"

Zhao Huayin's eyes were burning.

"Yes, you did a great job."

Yan Qi smiled slightly.

"But I have never said who I like. I don't know why my sister has such speculations."

Zhao Huayin stared at Yu Ying'er with sharp eyes.

"This……"

Yu Ying'er was speechless for a moment. Zhao Huayin did mention Zhou Pei several times, but she never said that she liked him.

Zhao Huayin pressed forward step by step.

"I mentioned this person's paintings to my sister before, and she seemed very interested. Could it be that she wanted to express her feelings?"

Zhao Huayin squatted down and gently stroked Yu Ying'er's cheek with her bare hands.

"If you like this man, you only need to tell mother and she will make the decision for you. But do you know what the punishment for theft is?"

After saying this, he looked at Mu Xiao, who took a step forward and said,

"Depending on the value of the stolen items, the punishment could range from caning to beheading!"

"Sister! Sister! I didn't steal, sister!"

Yu Ying'er hurriedly came up and grabbed Zhao Huayin's hand.

Zhao Huayin stood up and dodged Yu Ying'er's hand.

"Ying'er, since the day you came to the Zhao Mansion, have the people in the mansion ever treated you harshly?"

"Never...never."

Yu Ying'er felt guilty and didn't dare to answer.

"If that's the case, why do you want to put me and the entire Shangshu Mansion in an unjust position?"

When Zhao Huayin said this, what emerged in her mind was the tragic scene of the Zhao family being destroyed in her previous life. She thought of her parents' untimely deaths and her own death.

Zhao Huayin's eyes couldn't help but turn red, emotions were surging in her eyes, and every word seemed to be shouted from the bottom of her heart.

Yu Ying'er seemed to be frightened by Zhao Huayin's appearance and did not dare to answer for a moment.

Yan Qi did not expect Zhao Huayin to have such a big reaction, but Zhao Huayin's expression at this time made him feel that the little girl must have suffered a great injustice.

With a cold face, he walked up to Yu Ying'er and stood with his hands behind his back.

"It seems that the matter has been clarified. What do you think about how to deal with this woman, Minister Zhao?"

Minister Zhao stepped forward and protected Zhao Huayin behind him, then looked at Yu Ying'er and said,

"When my mother Yinyin was young, she ate vegetarian food with her mother at Jing'an Temple. Every year, she would pester her mother to go to the temple. Whenever she met someone in need, she would never hesitate to help.

I've been so sincere to you, but now you're the one who hurts Yinyin's heart. Isn't that repaying kindness with hatred?"

Yu Ying'er was obviously panicking, and she knelt down at Minister Zhao's feet and begged, "My lord, my lord, I really didn't mean to harm my sister, please believe me!"

Although he had already confirmed that Zhao Huayin was the person who accompanied him back then, Yan Qi was still shocked when he heard the words "Jing'an Temple" from Minister Zhao again.

Zhao Huayin actually asks to go to the temple every year. Could it be related to me?

"Your Highness, this woman has a vicious mind and actually repays kindness with enmity. Our Shangshu Mansion will no longer keep such a person in the mansion. Your Highness, please deal with her according to the law!"

Minister Zhao said to Yan Qi.

"If it is handled according to the law, it will be easy to handle."

Yan Qi spoke softly.

Yu Ying'er looked at Yan Qi, who was standing beside her like a devil, and was so frightened that she fainted.

Zhao Huayin looked at Yu Ying'er lying on the ground and couldn't help but sneer in her heart. She was still the same as in her previous life, fainting at the slightest provocation. Her body was really "weak"!

If you still want to act, forget it.

Zhao Huayin winked at Liuyun, and Liuyun picked up the tea beside him and splashed it on Yu Ying'er's face.

"what!"

Yu Ying'er sat up suddenly.

"Sister wakes up really quickly!"
