The timing of making a move on the Lance's seemed to be even worse.

Sun Jinzi had always suspected that the cold poison on her body was related to the Lance's.

After all, the matter of her saving Imperial Consort Yu the last time had left a deep impression on her.

And to her knowledge, Lance's had never been skilled in medicine.

”Mu Rong, send the message down, keep an eye on Aunt Lan.” She really wanted to see how Lance's, a mere aunt, could have so much courage and ability to do so.

”Miss, don't worry. This servant will do my best to handle this matter.” Mu Rong wasn't good at persuading others, but doing these things was her specialty.

Early in the morning, the city was bustling with noise and excitement.

”Your Highness, we have been in the The Jin Dynasty for so long and we haven't done anything yet. Will His Majesty blame us? ” The little maid looked at Princess of Dongchu and carefully spoke.

Yesterday, she had received news from the Easternum, but in truth, the Emperor of the East Chu was already very unhappy about Sima Yuzhu coming to the The Jin Dynasty for so long, and not being able to accomplish even one thing.

The little maid had long known about Emperor of the East Chu's attitude towards him, and at this moment, these words were merely a tactful reminder to Sima Yuzhu.

”What's the rush? Haven't you seen that I've been working on something recently?”

Sima Yuzhu was used to being spoiled, when had it ever been a little maid's turn to criticize her? She immediately glared at him, filled with displeasure.

”Please forgive me, Your Highness. This servant deserves to die ten thousand times. ”

Seeing the maid act like this, Sima Yuzhu was annoyed. ”Stop acting like this, it's boring.” She just kept saying that she was going to die, and she didn't know if there would be anything new.

”Let me tell you, if someone asks, you can tell them the truth. This Princess isn't anything, he didn't do anything.”

How could she, a princess who could lead soldiers, only think about seducing men?

Her other goal during this trip was to find someone in Easternum who had been missing for a long time.

She didn't know that person's appearance, nor did she know his name, but she knew that he had a characteristic, and a pair of talismans that could quickly identify him.

Right now, she still hadn't found that person. However, she would soon have news of him.

And Sun Jinzi's cold poison was evidence.

”Your Highness, don't tell me you already have a clue?” The maid said.

”There is indeed, but don't ask me, I don't want to say it right now.”

Sima Yuzhu rolled her eyes slightly. She was not completely confident so she temporarily did not want to mention this matter.

At the same time, Sun Jinzi had Mu Rong send out people to keep an eye on the Lance's, and she had indeed received news.

”Miss, it has been my duty for Lance's to not go anywhere these few days.”

”I know, but you must know, she has never been anywhere. It is not because of her duty, but because of her limited identity. Thus, she is unable to go anywhere.”

”Then what should we do?” Mu Rong knew from Sun Jinzi's words that she had always suspected her.

If she didn't go anywhere and did nothing, it was clear that they wouldn't get any good news at all.

That was why the Lance's had to make a move in order for them to obtain the information they needed.

”If you don't have a chance to go out, then create some opportunities.”

Sun Jinzi looked up slightly, her eyes clear and bright.

Mu Rong still did not understand.

”Lance's is most concerned about her precious daughter, Sun Jinning. If she knew what happened to her daughter, she would definitely not ignore her.”

”This servant understands.” Mu Rong replied.

She understood Sun Jinzi's intentions. As the saying goes, hitting a snake or seven inches is the same as grabbing onto the seven inches of Lance's; she would naturally listen to him.

Soon, it would be summer. When that time came, perhaps everyone would have to go to the manor outside the city to take shelter during the summer. When that time came …

But it's been too long.

Sun Jinzi thought silently in her heart, then shook her head. Since Mu Rong left with such confidence, perhaps the other party would have already made a decision.

Recently, the cold poison on her body had become more and more powerful, and he was not moving for a while, as though all the blood in her body was going to freeze solid. His hands and feet were ice-cold, and only by temporarily consuming the pills concocted by Ji Zi would she be able to keep her blood from warming up again.

”Yah, Miss, why are you so cold?” Mu Tan was at the side tidying up the bed, and seeing Sun Jinzi take out a medicine bottle to eat, Mu Tan finally came over to take a look, and the result shocked him greatly.

”I'm fine.” It would be useless to say that he had something to do, so he might as well be a little stronger himself.

”I will go look for Aunt Lan.” Mu Tan had long blamed the Lance's in her heart.

He wholeheartedly believed that it was the doing of the Lance's.

Sun Jinzi immediately pulled her back.

”You're going to look for her? Have you thought about what to say? ” Was he going to directly accuse her of giving him medicine? And then force her to hand over the antidote?

How could she admit to being such an intelligent and hardworking woman like the Lance's? Let alone the fact that Mu Tan had no tone of voice, even if she had a tone of voice, the Lance's would still be able to force the words out of her.

In any case, it wasn't that Sun Jinzi didn't have the means to see the Lance's.
