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

Yu emphasized the words "drowning in a pig cage," as if afraid Shen Ning wouldn't know.

"Second Aunt, what are you plotting to tarnish the reputation of the women of the Shen family like this?"

"What good will it do my fourth and fifth sisters if my reputation is ruined?"

"Does this mean that Fourth Sister and Fifth Sister won't be getting married in the future?"

Shen Yue and Shen Ran's expressions froze.

Shen Ning continued, "If I really let the nannies examine my body, then I'll be in a situation where I can't clear my name no matter what I do, since there's no smoke without fire."

As Shen Ning spoke, she glanced outside the hall.

Judging by the time, my elder brother Shen Yan will be back from Dali Temple soon today.

She wanted to show her eldest brother how the second and third branches of the Shen family were pressuring her.

So that the eldest brother doesn't think that these ungrateful wretches who take the big house's things are kind-hearted.

"Insolence!" Madam Yu slammed her hand on the table.

"Shen Ning, you have to undergo the examination today whether you want to or not, so that I won't be unable to explain it to General Shen when he returns."

"Guards, drag the second young lady back to her room and give her a thorough examination!"

As soon as Madam Yu finished speaking, the two or three old women rushed towards Shen Ning again.

One of the old women was very quick and snatched the hairpin from her hand.

She struggled desperately, but the old women were too strong. They roughly grabbed her arms and dragged her out of the hall.

As she walked to the front of the hall, Shen Ning caught a glimpse of a familiar figure.

She immediately broke free from the two maids holding her and suddenly turned around to smash herself against a pillar opposite her.

"Ning'er!"

At the critical moment, Shen Yan rushed over and grabbed Shen Ning.

"Ning'er, Ning'er, what are you doing?"

The moment Shen Ning saw Shen Yan, her eyes instantly reddened.

She threw herself into Shen Yan's arms and burst into tears with a sob.

She wasn't crying because she was being bullied by the second and third wives.

It was because her brother, who had died tragically in her previous life, was now standing vividly before her.

It made her feel like it was all unreal.

In his previous life, his elder brother Shen Yan and Shen Feng were shot and killed when they went to the border to retrieve their father's body.

At that time, she had lost her loved ones and had a high fever for several days in the Regent's Palace, almost causing her to miscarry.

It's so good to see my brother still alive.

"Big brother..."

Shen Ning's eyes were red and she reached out to hug Shen Yan tightly.

She didn't want to lose her brother, and she didn't want to lose her sister and father too.

She wanted to tell her brother that her eldest sister, Shen Rou, was not their father's daughter at all, but an imposter.

"Ning'er, what exactly happened?"

Shen Yan gently wiped away Shen Ning's tears and carefully helped her up.

Shen Ning's voice choked with sobs as she looked at everyone in the hall: "It was Second Aunt, they were the ones who wanted to force Ning'er to her death."

Upon seeing Shen Yan return, Madam Yu looked embarrassed.

She hadn't expected that Shen Yan would return from Dali Temple so early.

"Second Aunt, what exactly happened?" Shen Yan pulled Shen Ning into the hall.

"I wonder what mistake Ning'er made to have driven her to this point?"

Yu forced a smile.

"Your Highness misunderstands. How could I dare to force Ning'er? I've only heard some rumors circulating in the manor."

"Today, Ning'er and Rou'er went to Putuo Temple to offer incense and disappeared for two hours for no reason."

"Her personal maid said that she went to Putuo Temple to meet Ning Congwen, the son of the Vice Minister of the Ministry of Revenue."

"This caused a delay in returning to the Shen family. On the way, they encountered bandits, which resulted in the unnecessary loss of Fang Mama's life, and His Highness Prince Chen was also injured as a result."

"In order to clear Ning'er's name, I, as the head of the household, have no choice but to examine the Second Miss's body and quell the rumors in the manor."

Shen Yan frowned and looked at Shen Ning tenderly.

"I've heard about what happened at Putuo Temple. The Yanjing government will investigate this matter thoroughly. Were you injured at Putuo Temple?"

Shen Ning shook her head: "No, it was Granny Fang who saved me."

"Brother... I miss Father."

As Shen Ning spoke, tears streamed down her face, making Shen Yan feel even more heartbroken.

Shen Yan looked at Madam Yu: "Which maid or servant was gossiping? Drag them out and beat them to death. What kind of behavior is this, making things difficult for my sister here?"

"Please tell me, Second Aunt, which maidservant of my sister's is it?"

Is it White Dew or Angelica dahurica?

Shen Yan glanced sharply at Bai Zhi and Bai Lu, and Bai Lu immediately knelt down.

"Young Master, this servant did not defile the young lady."

"This servant witnessed with her own eyes that Miss and that Young Master Ning were having a secret rendezvous."

"Furthermore, Miss has been exchanging private letters with that Young Master Ning these days. If the young master does not believe it, he can send people to search Miss's room."

Shen Ning's lips curved into a smile.

Sure enough, the fish took the bait.

She had been waiting for Bai Lu to say those words.

Shen Yan's expression suddenly turned cold. He walked to Bai Lu's side and kicked her hard.

"You vile servant, how dare you defile Ning'er! Guards, drag Bailu away and beat her to death with sticks!"

As soon as Shen Yan finished speaking, three or five guards rushed in menacingly.

"Your Highness!" Madam Yu said anxiously.

"Your Highness's actions are merely an attempt to cover up the truth; what will others say about the Second Miss?"

"Big brother," Shen Yue, who was sitting on the side chair, spoke up.

"If Second Sister is truly still a virgin, why is she so resistant? She should just openly let the nanny examine her; why bother with this pretense?"

"Big brother," Shen Ning said gently.

"Let them take men to search. Ning'er is upright and honest, and would never have a secret affair with that young master surnamed Ning."

"If I didn't, I would appreciate an explanation from my second aunt!"

Madam Yu sneered: "It would be best if the second young lady didn't have it, so as to avoid tarnishing the reputation of the women of the Shen family."

"Guards, take men to search the second young lady's room."

At Madam Yu's command, an old woman led two or three maids to Shen Ning's Zhaohua Courtyard to search for things.

About fifteen minutes later, the old nanny next to Madam Yu ran in with a stack of letters on her face, all smiles.

"Madam, Your Highness, this was found in a box under the Second Miss's bed."

"Second Miss, you really did have an affair. This time, the old lady will definitely have you drowned in the pond," Madam Yu said smugly.

"My sister isn't that kind of person!" Shen Yan didn't believe it at all. He strode over to the old woman and took the letters.

The letters were opened one by one, and Shen Yan's expression changed instantly after scanning them.

He took the letter in his hand and threw it hard at Shen Yue.

"I would also like to ask my fourth sister for an explanation!"
