When Jiang Ningwan saw that face, she suddenly remembered.

She had seen it in her previous life.

He had a romantic and unrestrained appearance, but one look at him sent a chill down her spine.

This is not a good person.

There were so many people around that Jiang Ningwan couldn't say much. She just whispered, "Be careful of the girl behind him."

Qin Shuangchi's eyes swept over the woman behind Xie Yongan, the dancer named Xiang Sui.

"What's up with her?"

"I'll tell you in detail when I get back."

As he spoke, the Fourth Prince opposite him had already cast his gaze over, sizing up Jiang Ningwan meaningfully and smiling at her.

Just being stared at by the Fourth Prince made Jiang Ningwan feel her hair stand on end and she felt uncomfortable all over.

Fortunately, nothing happened at the dinner tonight. Jiang Ningwan left early and returned to the room in the courtyard with Qin Shuangchi.

"You've been acting a little strange since you met the Fourth Prince today. Logically, you haven't met him before." Qin Shuangchi was confused.

Jiang Ningwan frowned and thought, "That dancer isn't from Dayan, but from the Nangu tribe in Chongnan. She's good at singing and dancing, and has a secret technique that can confuse people and make them tell the truth."

The reason why she felt this way about the Fourth Prince was because of this secret method.

In the previous life, when the fourth prince of Dayan visited, the emperor executed three officials.

They all make them reveal some secrets that cannot be told when they are off guard, such as corruption, murder of colleagues, or smuggling of weapons.

He was ordered to be executed on the spot by the emperor.

How can this not make people afraid?

In her previous life, she was not qualified to know too much, but everything that happened at that time was too horrifying, so she remembered that face deeply.

Qin Shuangchi was shocked after hearing this, "How do you know this?"

"Have you seen the Nangu people?"

Even the people of Dayan may not know this news.

When he went to Dayan, Xiang Sui followed the Fourth Prince and entered and left the palace at any time. Even the people in the palace did not know that Xiang Sui was a member of the Nangu tribe.

Moreover, he had never heard of the Nangu tribe.

Jiang Ningwan didn't know how to explain, so she just said, "Just believe me!"

"I will never hurt you!"

"You absolutely must avoid contact with them."

"I don't know how they trick people into falling for it."

This made Jiang Ningwan worried.

Qin Shuangchi recalled that Xiang Sui had been trying every possible way to get close to him along the way. Could it be for this reason?

"This needs to be told to other people so they don't get caught."

"Xie Lianyi is the Fourth Prince's eldest sister. They've been together before. Maybe Xie Lianyi knows something. Let's ask her."

Jiang Ningwan nodded, "That's right, we need to let them all know and keep them on high alert."

"Then we should split up. You go find Jin Lan, Pei Xunzhi and the others, and I'll go find Xie Lianyi and ask them."

The two set off one after the other.

Taking advantage of the night, Jiang Ningwan went out, but as soon as she walked out of the courtyard, she ran into Qin Beihuang.

The courtyards where the foreign officials lived were adjacent to each other, so it was not surprising that they met.

"Where are you going so late?" Qin Beihuang asked puzzledly.

"Can't I take a walk to get some fresh air?" Jiang Ningwan said and was about to leave.

But Qin Beihuang stopped him and advised, "Zhou Yu brought a few big black dogs this time, saying they were to guard the palace and also accompany His Majesty on hunting trips. His Majesty liked them very much and allowed Zhou Yu to take the black dogs on patrol."

"If you are bitten by a black dog, Zhou Yu will not be held responsible. It's too late now. You'd better not go around."

After hearing this, Jiang Ningwan became even more worried and decided to go find Jin Lan.

"Thanks for letting me know."

Leaving behind a cold remark, Jiang Ningwan's figure immediately disappeared from Qin Beihuang's sight.

Jiang Ningwan still went to find Shen Lanyi first, wanting to find out about the fourth prince's situation.

But when he knocked on Shen Lianyi's door, she said, "I'm going to bed. Let's talk tomorrow if you have anything to say."

Jiang Ningwan didn't give up. "I have something urgent to do! I don't want to take up too much of your time."

Shen Lianyi's attitude was cold, "If there's something urgent, go find your cousin."

This confused Jiang Ningwan. Why was she so indifferent?

Did something happen?

She desperately forced the door open.

He broke in and saw Shen Lianyi sitting in front of the dressing table. She was the only one in the room and there was no danger.

"Why are you still forcing your way in?" Shen Lianyi was surprised and frowned unhappily.

Jiang Ningwan closed the door. "You were acting so abnormally. I thought something happened to you."

"You haven't slept yet? And you still refuse to see me."

"It's fine if you're avoiding my cousin, but why are you avoiding me?"

She hadn't spoken to Shen Lanyi for a long time. After the gathering at the Ling family that night, she went to Jinghong Pavilion, but did not see Shen Lanyi.

The guy's attitude was also cold. He just said that the painting she bought would be delivered as scheduled and asked her not to worry.

But she didn't go there to paint.

In short, Shen Lanyi and everyone related to her became abnormal.

Shen Lianyi turned back, combing her hair slowly, and said calmly, "Is there anything wrong? I really need to rest."

Jiang Ningwan sat down by herself, "The Fourth Prince is your brother. Do you know why he came to Daning this time?"

Shen Lianyi slowly took off the earrings and placed them in the jewelry box. "I don't know."

Jiang Ningwan was puzzled, "Do you know him well?"

"I don't understand."

Jiang Ningwan asked a lot of questions, but Shen Lanyi didn't know the answers to any of them.

Jiang Ningwan gradually became angry and said in a cold voice: "Then did you know that the dancer beside the Fourth Prince is from the Nangu tribe?"

Hearing this, Shen Lianyi froze.

He was stunned for a moment, then turned to her and asked in confusion: "Nangu tribe? What is that?"

Jiang Ningwan's heart sank. "You don't know? Do you really not know or do you not want to tell me? This is very important. If you know, don't hide it from me!"

Shen Lianyi said seriously, "I really don't know."

Jiang Ningwan told Shen Lianyi the secret method of the Nangu tribe to make people speak the truth. Shen Lianyi felt unbelievable after hearing it.

"Is there such a secret method in the world? I have never seen it before."

Jiang Ningwan was surprised and murmured thoughtfully, "So... when he was in Da Yan, the Fourth Prince never used this secret method to harm anyone?"

Even Shen Lianyi had never seen it before, let alone know how to crack this secret technique. If someone fell for it, wouldn't it be a dead end?

"Wang Wang-"

Suddenly, the sound of dogs barking was heard outside.

Jiang Ningwan came to her senses and immediately rushed out.

Find Jinlan first and ensure her safety.

Zhou Yu brought a few dogs with him specially, he must be coming for them.

There was a lot of noise in the garden, with a lot of dogs barking and a lot of cheering.

Jiang Ningwan followed the sound and saw Ling Jinlan and Ling Chaowen, but they were standing outside the garden, far away from the black dog.

"What happened? Why such a big commotion?"

She felt relieved to see that Ling Jinlan was fine.

Ling Jinlan grabbed her arm anxiously, "Sister, Zhou Yu is going too far!"

"look!"

Following the direction of Ling Jinlan's finger, Jiang Ningwan saw bloodstains on the ground and the corpses of several kittens.

Zhou Yu's five big black dogs were surrounding a black cat in the garden. The black dogs were obviously trained and could cooperate, chasing and blocking the cat. They surrounded the black cat and were ready to pounce on it and bite it at any time.

Ling Chaowen angrily said, "The Fourth Prince said that the wild cats in the palace were meowing and disturbing people's sleep, so Zhou Yu brought these black dogs to bite all the cats in the garden to death."

"He even made bets with his cronies on which one would be caught first, killing for fun. What a beast!"
