Jin Wanyue then sighed, and Murong Jin looked at her.

"Is there any difficulty?"

Jin Wanyue looked at the seriousness on Murong Jin's face and said, "It's nothing, it's just that I feel that if a woman meets a man who treats her well, she will have a home and a loving partner. But if she meets a bad man, she will suffer terribly."

Murong Jin stared at her. "So, Madam has a husband?"

Jin Wanyue was taken aback. "No, raising insects is more fun than men."

"I feel sorry for my sister. Her Gu techniques are much more powerful than mine, but now she's lying in bed, unconscious."

"Besides, it's no use saying anything now; her natal Gu is gone."

Murong Jin didn't say anything. Losing her natal Gu was like losing half her life. Some bonds were so deep that they even shared life...

"Madam, there's no need to think so much. When the time is right, Her Majesty will wake up."

Jin Wanyue nodded, "That's true. Take me with you on this mission. I can cure these parasitic worms."

Murong Jin naturally wouldn't refuse, after all, he was a legitimate traditional Gu practitioner.

In the palace, Emperor Junlan looked at the newly delivered documents and said, "Zhao Delin, go to the Six Ministries and inform them to do everything in their power to assist the Regent and strengthen the city's security."

"Yes, Your Majesty."

After glancing out the window, Di Junlan continued working, reviewing the memorials and then reading reports on recent cases.

"master."

Ankerson climbed in through the window and landed in the room. "Your Majesty."

"You're back?"

Ankesen: "Well... but this time I have something to report."

Upon hearing this, Di Junlan exclaimed, "Corpse parasites?"

"Yes, those people are trying to control people secretly in order to create chaos."

"The Regent and his wife are ready to resolve this matter completely."

Emperor Junlan: "I understand. Arrange for the Imperial Guards to accompany them and protect them."

Ankesen: "Understood."

...

"Commander".

An Kesen looked at the guards beside him and said, "Protect Miss Yu well. She is the future mistress of the An family."

"yes."

The atmosphere in the city was somewhat heavy; some people were at a loss, while others were filled with anxiety...

They're all afraid that when they're alone, they might get bitten on the neck.

Seven days later, the army personally distributed the antidote at the gate of the government office.

"Don't worry, everyone. Even if you get bitten, you won't die from the poison, but we can't let our guard down because of that."

"It's best not to go out at night. Those people just want fresh corpses."

"Then they'll use the corpses to deal with us living people..."

Yu Jing'er was shouting from the side, and when the people who were getting medicine learned the reason, they all felt that those people were really not human.

"If we unite, those people will eventually be dealt with. We must trust Da Cheng, trust His Majesty, and trust the Regent."

Then a chorus of voices rang out: "Yes!!! We're united!!"

Murong Jin was drinking hot tea when Jin Wanyue watched the girl cooking at the stove outside. "This girl seems to have a good relationship with you."

Murong Jin's gaze fell on Ling Qiao'er. "Hmm."

Jin Wanyue: "..." She doesn't even deny it.

"Honestly, now that we've spent so much time together, what's your opinion of my little Lanlan?"

"Oh? What opinion does Madam wish to have?"

Jin Wanyue: "!?" Then she stared at Murong Jin, "You've slept with him, aren't you going to take responsibility?"

"I didn't sleep with him on purpose."

Jin Wanyue was dumbfounded. "What the hell! I never thought you were this kind of person, you scumbag!!! You're heartless after you've hooked up with me!!"

Looking at the man who was bristling with anger, Murong Jin suddenly realized that Di Junlan's sometimes bristling and angry appearance reminded her of someone else.

So it's because she looks like her aunt. It seems there's a genetic component to it.

When Lan Ziyao arrived, he saw Aunt Jin looking like she was about to explode.

"Oh, looks like I've come at an inopportune time."

Jin Wanyue looked at him and asked, "What are you doing here?"

Lan Ziyao shook his head. "I wanted to share some good news, but Auntie, you don't seem to welcome me very much. So just pretend I wasn't here."

"What good news?"

Lan Ziyao turned to leave, his voice tinged with arrogance, "I won't tell you, Her Majesty touched me a couple of times today."

Upon hearing this, Jin Wanyue immediately rushed over, grabbing Lan Ziyao's arm, her entire being filled with shock and excitement, "Really!!!! You mean really!!!"

Lan Ziyao looked at the happy person and said, "Really, I'm not lying."

"You're over forty, why are you still acting like a child?"

Upon hearing this, Jin Wanyue slapped him on the head. "What do you mean, in your forties? I'm only in my thirties. Don't you know you can't just casually reveal a woman's age?"

Lan Ziyao: "..."

Okay, he used to be so aloof, but now he's like a little clown.

Murong Jin looked at them and said, "The antidote requires specific ingredients; have someone go and get them."

Jin Wanyue returned to the main topic: "Da Cheng does not have the most important medicine, which is a unique antidote that can only be found in Jinling Kingdom."

Then, changing the subject, she added, "However, I do have some. Won't the Regent give me some pocket money?"

Murong Jin chuckled lightly, "With this matter resolved, I'll give you two shops, how about that?"

Jin Wanyue's eyes lit up. If she had a shop, she wouldn't have to worry about food and clothing. Then she realized she had no business experience. "Um, I don't know how to do business..."
