Qi Yuning said, "Shuangjiang told me today that she was nearly killed and two others were killed by Princess Rong in the Prince of Jin's Mansion. I think this venomous snake must be related to Princess Rong."
"Cousin Rong is only nine years old. How can she be so cruel at such a young age?"
Qi Yuning instructed Deqing, "Go to the clinic and ask Doctor Jin to come over."
Doctor Jin arrived three quarters of an hour later. He looked at the dead snake on the ground, stroked his beard and said:

Qi Yuning frowned slightly. It was indeed the case. "I have to send a few more people to protect Shuangjiang. If I find any evidence, I will not let her off easily. Even if she is a princess of the royal family, I cannot treat human life as worthless!"
