Chapter 5 Evidence

“Abbot, she was lying … Her phoenix hairpin was clearly on her … When I was being indecently assaulted by her, she even used her phoenix hairpin to threaten me! ”

Monk Yihan quickly made excuses!

Hua Qiyue was waiting for this!

She was as calm as water, leisurely saying, “Master Hanming, the phoenix hairpin isn’t on me, if you don’t believe me, please ask a female pilgrim at the side to do the body search!”

Her words were like a clap of thunder, scaring both Hua Mengshi and Lanzhu.

Lanzhu blinked and immediately whispered to Hua Mengshi. Her pale face slowly calmed down.

At least Master Hanming was the abbot here, and Hua Qiyue’s suggestion was the only way after all. Both sides told their stories, no one would know the truth.

Thus, the abbot asked one of the female pilgrims in the crowd to search on Hua Qiyue’s body.

Youshui returned with a bowl of warm water, she ws panic. The young miss had been framed many times, if she fell this time, no one would dare to marry her. With her personality, she would definitely suicide. Weren’t they forcing her to die?

Hua Qiyue took the bowl of water and drank to moisturize her parched throat.

After a while, the pilgrim who had personally searched on Hua Qiyue’s body groped around in confusion, shaking her head and said, “Master, I couldn’t find the phoenix hairpin.”

Hua Mengshi’s expression did not change as she indifferently looked at Lanzhu who was standing beside her.

Lanzhu’s eyes were widened as she looked at Hua Qiyue in disbelief.

Monk Yihan immediately screamed, “Impossible, impossible!”

Master Hanming frowned coldly. Hanyue Temple was a famous temple in Changjing City, and there was an endless stream of pilgrims every day. For the past two hundred years, there never was a disgrace thing happened except tonight.

Moreover, it was not as simple as it appeared to be.

Abbot Hanming asked his men to search Monk Yihan, but a cold voice stopped him.

“There’s no need to research. I know who took my phoenix hairpin away, it was her — my second young sister’s maid, Lanzhu!”

Hua Qiyue pointed at Lanzhu coldly, her eyes were like ice, her face were like frost, her body emitting an invisible cold and prideful aura with extremely confidence.

Lanzhu’s face was deathly pale, but after receiving Hua Mengshi’s comforting look, Lanzhu’s emotion was stabilized quite a bit.

“Eldest Miss, why would you slander me! How dare I to snatch your phoenix hairpin? ” Lanzhu lowered her eyes, avoid seeing Hua Qiyue’s ice-cold eyes.

“Abbot Hanming, please search Lanzhu immediately. My phoenix hairpin must on her!” Hua Qiyue was too lazy to talk nonsense with Lanzhu and directly asked the abbot.

She knew that Abbot Hanming was a righteous leader. Those people made trouble here, that’s courting death.

“This lady, may I trouble you to search Miss Lan? This matter happened in the Hanyue Temple, so I must uphold justice. If I offend the Second Miss, I hope that the Second Miss will forgive. ” Hanming said to Hua Mengshi in a low voice.

Hua Mengshi immediately shook her head, ” Not at all, abbot, just let people search. Lanzhu is innocent, she has nothing to be afraid of.”

While she was speaking, the pilgrim immediately went to Lanzhu’s side and started searching. Suddenly, she cried out as she took out the phoenix hairpin from Lanzhu’s belt!

That golden phoenix hairpin shone with a cold light under the light of lamp. Everyone sighed, and Lanzhu’s face turned deathly pale!

She had never thought that she would have the hairpin on her!

Lanzhu put that hairpin on Hua Qiyue when she and Monk Yihan knocked Hua Qiyue out. Why was it on her body?

“Lanzhu, you … How dare you did such a thing!” Before Lanzhu could regain her senses, Hua Mengshi took the initiative, pointed at her and berated her.

Lanzhu was so frightened that she got down on her knees, “Second Miss, please help me! I have never done such a despicable thing … It must be that when the Eldest Miss told me to go over and help her, she put it on me! ”

Everyone looked at Lanzhu, then at Hua Qiyue, didn’t know who to believe.

Hua Qiyue smiled coldly, Hua Mengshi’s heart trembled. Why did it seem like Hua Qiyue had changed into another person after she woke up?

She was clearly a cowardly person. In the past, whenever she was in trouble, she would tremble and shrink!

But now, Hua Qiyue’s eyes seemed to have electricity, she was full of inviolable cold aura!

“It’s not just the hairpin, I happened to see that thief’s face when I was chasing the thief. That person’s face was as white as a dead man’s, and there was even some powder on the ground. Look!” Hua Qiyue pointed with her finger, everyone looked down at the ground. There was some white powder on the ground.
