After giving her contraceptives, she went mad, criticizing the prince for turning white-haired overn

Bai Zhi nodded quickly: "Yes, Miss."

After saying that, she ran all the way to Zhaohua Courtyard.

As Yu and Shen Rou sat in their chairs, seeing Shen Ning's resolute expression, a sense of unease rose in their hearts.

Madam Yu whispered, "Could this undergarment be fake?"

"I carefully selected all of Wan'er's clothes, and this bellyband is indeed the style she often wears."

As she spoke, she glanced at the girl in Shen Ning's arms and said sarcastically:

"Ning-jie, don't underestimate Wan-jie just because she's only a teenager. She's quite shrewd."

"She almost seduced the doctor in the manor before, and now she's provoking the Prince of Ming during the spring hunt."

"The Prince Ming's residence has even sent over the evidence; how could it be fake?"

She gave the old woman beside her a wink.

The old woman looked disgusted and threw a pink undergarment at Shen Ning.

"Look, is this Wan'er's?"

Shen Wan was weak and looked at the pink dress.

"No...it's not mine."

"I've never worn this color before."

"You still won't admit it!" Madam Yu scolded.

Shen Ning remained calm, her gaze sweeping over the undergarment before shifting away.

In her past life, she was also falsely accused in the same way, and it was this same undergarment.

She took off her cloak and covered Shen Wan with it, then hugged Shen Wan tightly in her arms.

"Whether it is or not, Second Aunt will know soon enough."

"Grandmother, if I find out the true owner of this undergarment, please deal with it according to the family rules."

"This matter concerns the reputation of the women of our Shen family. If Grandmother does not act according to family rules, I will personally go to the Kyoto Prefectural Government to report this to the authorities!"

Seeing Shen Ning's determination, Madam Yu's heart tightened.

Madam Shen sat upright in the seat of honor and said in a deep voice, "I'd like to see what tricks you can come up with."

As soon as Madam Shen finished speaking, a maidservant rushed over.

"Madam, Second Madam, the Princess Consort of Huainan has arrived. She says... she has come today specifically to annul the engagement."

The expressions of everyone in the hall changed.

Yu and Zhao exchanged a glance, their eyes flashing with barely concealed amusement.

Madam Shen's face darkened: "Has the Princess Consort of Huainan heard some rumors? Why would she come to annul the engagement at this time?"

Madam Yu sneered, "Wan'er has already climbed into Prince Ming's bed, can the Prince of Huainan's mansion afford to lose face like this?"

Madam Shen stood up: "Quickly, follow me to welcome the Princess Consort of Huainan."

"Madam, there's no need for such formalities," a clear female voice came from outside the door.

Everyone looked up and saw the Princess of Huainan leading her maids and servants into the front hall.

Behind him, the old woman was holding a letter of annulment.

Princess Consort of Huainan spotted Shen Wan and Shen Ning on the ground at a glance.

"It seems I've come at an inopportune time."

Madam Shen forced a smile.

"Has Your Highness come here regarding Wan'er?"

"It is indeed our Wan'er who has let the young master down, committing such a disgraceful act..."

Princess Huainan, expressionless, sat down in the high seat under the guidance of Old Madam Shen.

"Has Madam Shen resorted to family discipline?"

Madam Shen nodded emphatically.

"Yes. This matter concerns the reputation of the women of the Shen family, and I have no choice but to uphold the Shen family rules."

Princess Consort of Huainan gave a light snort: "In that case, let's come another day."

"Your Highness." Just then, Shen Ning spoke up.

"Does the Princess also believe that my sister seduced Prince Ming, which is why she came to the Shen family to break off the engagement?"

Princess Consort of Huainan laughed and said, "Second Miss Shen, the Huainan Prince's Mansion really cannot afford to lose face like this."

"I heard that the Ming King even sent a bellyband to the Shen family."

Shen Ning sneered: "So the princess concluding that it was my sister who did it?"

"However, my sister is in poor health, so it's better to break off this marriage with the Prince of Huainan."

Shen Ning originally thought that Shen Wan and the Crown Prince of Huainan were a match made in heaven.

But judging from the attitude of the Princess Consort of Huainan, even if Shen Wan marries into the Huainan Prince's Mansion in the future, she will still suffer grievances.

Shen Wan was raised in the Shen family from a young age, and was bullied by the second and third wives, which made her timid and weak-willed.

She didn't want her younger sister to be bullied after getting married.

The heir of the Prince of Huainan, though a man of extraordinary talent, was in his previous life a cowardly man who only listened to his mother.

Since they are not a good match, it's better to end it here.

"The princess is going to annul the engagement based on just a few words from others. Why don't you see for yourself today and see if what you hear is true?"

"Ning-jie, how can you protect Wan'er like this? There are witnesses and physical evidence, how could it be false?" Madam Yu said anxiously.

"That undergarment doesn't belong to Wan'er, could it be yours?"

Shen Ning sneered: "Whose it is, Second Aunt will know in a moment."

"Miss." Just then, Bai Zhi's voice came from outside the door.

Everyone looked up and saw a guard in black, leading two black dogs that were half a person's height into the front hall.

The two black dogs' eyes gleamed with ferocity, causing everyone present to gasp in shock.

The ferocious tiger dogs kept in Princess Chaoyang's residence were notorious.

The guards in black stepped forward and bowed.

"Ning Ying from Princess Chaoyang's residence greets Madam Shen and Princess Consort of Huainan."

"So they are guards from the Princess's residence." Old Madam Shen unconsciously tightened her grip on her cane.

"What are these two vicious dogs doing at the Shen family's house for no reason?"

Shen Ning: "Grandmother, didn't you want to know the true owner of the bellyband? Your granddaughter will show you right now."

She gently helped Shen Wan up and handed her over to Ziyu.

Taking advantage of the chaos, Ziyu helped the person back to Wutong Garden.

"What can you possibly discern from these two beasts?" Madam Yu said coldly.

Shen Ning smiled and said, "As everyone knows, black dogs can recognize human scent."

"Underwear can be faked, but scent cannot be faked."

As Shen Ning spoke, she picked up the pink bib and walked over to the Meng Hu dog.

The two dogs sniffed the bib, then suddenly grabbed it and threw it on the ground.

One of them bared its teeth and growled, its hind leg muscles tensing, and began sniffing around the front hall.

Everyone in the hall held their breath, fearing that the dog might bite them.

Madam Yu clutched her handkerchief tightly, her eyes filled with terror as she looked at the black dog.

Princess Huainan and her entourage, however, remained calm, watching the spectacle unfold.

The other black dog sniffed the bib on the ground, then suddenly broke free from the rope in Ning Ying's hand and turned to rush towards the backyard.

"Where is that black dog going?"

Ning Ying said, "They went to the backyard of the Shen family. They must have smelled something."

Upon hearing this, everyone tensed up.

Yu was a little restless and quickly got up from her chair.

"Madam, I'll go check the backyard..."

As she spoke, Madam Yu got up, preparing to leave.

Unexpectedly, the black dog suddenly darted out like a gust of wind and pounced on her.

"what!"

"open!"

Yu screamed and struggled violently.

The black dog, however, seemed to be possessed, clinging tightly to her sleeve.

Seeing this, Ning Ying suddenly tightened the reins and dragged the black dog over.

Yu was so frightened that she trembled all over and fell to the ground.

"Sister Ning, you did this on purpose!"

She scrambled to her feet and sat down in a chair.

Upon seeing the black dog in Ning Ying's hand, everyone in the hall gasped.

Thankfully, it didn't bite the flesh; with the black dog's bite force, the flesh might have been torn off.

Ning Ying led the dog to Old Madam Shen.

"Madam Shen, the owner of those personal items has been found."

"It is indeed your esteemed second wife."

The hall erupted in uproar.

Even the Princess Consort of Huainan found it hard to believe.

Shen Ning picked up the undergarment from the ground and threw it into Madam Yu's arms.

"Second Aunt, you must keep your personal clothing safe."

"Stop throwing all that dirty water on my sister."

"According to the Shen family rules, he should be whipped and drowned in a pig cage."

Madam Yu was both shocked and furious, trembling all over: "You're lying! How could this possibly be my personal clothing?"

"Wan'er isn't in the front hall now, so naturally the dog can't smell her scent!"

Shen Ning sneered, "What's the rush, Second Aunt?"

"Didn't the other Mongrel go to the backyard just now?"

"We'll find out soon enough what's hidden in the backyard."
