Sun Mansion, Blue Moon Restaurant.

Sun Jinmeng was currently crying and complaining to Zhong's about how she was humiliated by him that day, but she did not mention anything about how Sun Jinzi saved his life. In her eyes, all of this was because of Sun Jinzi.

"Mom, you have to take revenge for me."

Zhong's closed his eyes and rested his mind, the prayer beads in his hand revolving non-stop, as if his soul had left his body.

Seeing that the Zhong's didn't pay attention to her, Sun Jinmeng went forward to hug her and act like a spoiled child.

"You idiot, when will you grow up? That little slut Sun Jinzi is no longer the same silly little girl who was ignorant of the affairs of the world. "

Zhong's suddenly sat up on the yellow praying mat and berated loudly: "She is the future First Prince's Consort now."

Sun Jinmeng had never seen Zhong's this angry before, she was so scared that she did not dare speak for a while.

Normally when he had suffered, the Zhong's would stick out for him.

Sun Jinzi would be marrying into the First Prince's Estate in two months. If he really made her into the Grand Imperial Consort, then her life in the Sun Mansion would probably not be an easy one.

These days, the Zhong's was constantly thinking about how to stop Sun Jinzi from marrying the First Prince. But due to the difficulty of the matter, the Emperor had already personally decreed that the marriage would be arranged.

"Mother, that little slut didn't marry into the First Prince's Estate and just bullied us like this. If she really marries into the First Prince, who knows how he'll take revenge on us?"

Sun Jinmeng saw that Zhong's's expression had calmed down, she knew her own mother's methods. With the huge Prime Minister's Estate behind her, the various powers in the imperial court would definitely have a way to take care of Sun Jinzi.

"You don't have to worry about that little slut matter in the future, I will think of a way."

Zhong's said in a stern voice, "If you dare to provoke that little slut again, I'll lock you up in Blue Moon Restaurant for three months."

Sun Jinzi could tell that Zhong's was not joking with him, so he did not say anything more.

little slut, you are an ant after the fall, you won't last more than a few days!

Outside Beijing, in a dark, damp, dilapidated temple.

It was still early in the morning outside, but the light in the temple was dim, making it difficult to see his face.

"You have done well in what I've arranged. This is your reward."

A woman's voice sounded, graceful and elegant. It sounded like the voice of someone who had lived a life of luxury.

"Thank you Madam for your reward!"

This time, the speaker was a middle-aged man with a deep voice.

But before he could finish, he fell onto his back with a dagger in his heart.

"After this is done, you should die."

After the woman finished speaking, she walked out of the temple. Not long after, flames lit up the area and the temple turned into ruins.

This was the third day since Sun Jinzi returned to the Jing Xin Yuan.

Lance's and Sun Jinning came to visit her and brought her most proficient cinnamon cake.

Sun Jinning took out a cinnamon cake from the box and said: "Second sister, this is a cinnamon cake that my mother made especially for you. When she heard that your vital energy and blood were weak, she especially added Chinese medicine to the cinnamon cake to replenish your energy and blood."

"Thank you, Third Aunt."

Sun Jinzi still hadn't come out from the pain of Mu Lan's death, so she was thinking of how to find the real mastermind.

That night in Jing Xin Yuan, Mu Lan used a hairpin to hold Sun Jinmeng hostage and nearly scared her to death. How could Zhong's mother and daughter let it go so easily?

But without solid evidence, even if the real culprit was the Zhong's mother and daughter, he wouldn't be able to avenge Mu Lan.

"Second sister, the City God Temple has a temple meeting in the past few days, why don't we go out together to relax? You are too stuffy in the mansion, it will not benefit your body."

Lance's laughed: "That's right! Zi Er, go out with your big sister and relax your mind.

Sun Jinzi thought that since she had been imprisoned in the Ancestral Hall, she had not gone out to take a walk, so she agreed to go out with Sun Jinning.

At the city's god temple, people were gathering, merchants were gathering, and the place was bustling with noise and excitement.

Sun Jinzi and Sun Jinning only brought two maids with them as they chatted and laughed along the way.

After Mu Lan died, the Qian's disease made Mu Tan return to the Sun Mansion to take care of her.

"I've always heard that there will be a lively event in the temple, but I never thought that there would be so many people."

Sun Jinzi spent most of her time in the Sun Mansion, and rarely came out for a stroll.

"Miss, that's Big Sister Mu Lan's favorite sugar girl." Mu Tan pointed at a small shop selling candy in the distance. Before she could finish speaking, her eyes had already turned red.

This was all a part of the past, a part of the past.

"Second sister, I heard that there is an acrobatic group over there from the Western Region.

Sun Jinning pulled Sun Jinzi and squeezed into the crowd. Mu Tan followed closely behind.

"Miss, wait for me, wait for me!"

Mu Tan shouted continuously from behind. With the crowd packed, the two of them quickly disappeared.

Sun Jinzi followed Sun Jinning and squeezed forward. The two of them spent a lot of effort before finally being able to squeeze onto the stage where the acrobats were performing, and they both panted heavily.

"Second sister, look at that Flaming Beast."

Sun Jinning cheered and pointed at a man who was spitting fire from his mouth on the stage. He wore a fiendish mask on his face.

That person sprayed out flames as she walked towards Sun Jinzi and the others. For some reason, she had a bad premonition in her heart.

"Get out of the way!"

An imposing voice exploded in the air like a clap of thunder, and the noisy crowd immediately quieted down.

He saw that the person wearing the mask did not spit out flames this time. Instead, he spat out a few bright silver needles.

Sun Jinning and Sun Jinzi did not even have time to react before they were pushed to the ground, escaping the silver needles that were shooting towards them.

The moment the two of them fell to the ground, they heard several screams of pain behind them. Those silver needles had hit the few people who were watching the show. They rolled on the ground in pain and not long after, they stopped moving.

"You are here?"

That familiar voice would ring in his mind hundreds of times every day.

The overly frightened crowd scattered. Jin Chupei wanted to chase after the murderer, but he was afraid that Sun Jinzi would be tricked again, so he could only give up.

Those who had been poisoned by the poison all had dark black blood flowing out of their orifices. Those silver needles were highly toxic.

Sun Jinning said with a face full of fear, "I saw that Second sister was too bored in the manor, so I wanted to take her out to relax, but I didn't expect that …"

Sun Jinzi was much calmer, but the moment she saw Jin Chupei, she calmed down.

Jin Chupei then escorted the two of them to a calligraphy and painting shop in the city's god temple. These few days, they had been there to watch the show, but few people came to ask about it.

"Boss, I've booked your restaurant today."

Jin Chupei said as he took out money bag s from his bosom and threw them over. The silver he gave could buy two of these shops.

"Big Sis, everything is fine now, don't be scared."

Sun Jinzi comforted the green faced Sun Jinning and saw that she seemed to have thought of something.

"Why would that man want to kill us? Say, do you think it's someone that the auntie sent out? "

Jin Chupei was also a little suspicious. Today, he was in his study room reading a book, when someone shot out an arrow from outside the window. The arrow was tied to a piece of paper.

Regardless if it was true or false, when he heard that Sun Jinzi was in trouble, he hurriedly rushed over from the manor.

"Why didn't the murderer do it in the middle of the road? You have to wait for your own appearance before you make your move? "

Could it be? Jin Chupei immediately shook his head again.

Sun Jinzi helped Sun Jinning to sit down on the chair. What happened today was beyond her imagination.

Other than Zhong's mother and daughter, there seemed to be no one else who wanted to kill him.

Sun Jinzi looked at Jin Chupei, he had thousands of things he wanted to say, but the words were left at his mouth, "Sixth Prince, long time no see."

These words were a long time no see, causing Jin Chupei's heart to slightly ache.

This was the first time the two of them had met since the last time Sun Mansion had left him, yet it was under such circumstances.

"First Prince's Consort, don't you think that what happened today was strange?"

Jin Chupei's mind kept replaying the scene of Sun Jinzi encountering danger, as well as the letters he had received today. He could not help but be certain that this was a premeditated assassination.

"His Highness the Sixth Prince's words are very polite."

It had been a long time since she last left the Sun Mansion, so the news of her coming to the temple was definitely something that no one else would know, it must have come from someone in the house.

Sun Jinning stood up and continued, "Second sister, I think it was aunty who sent someone over. Ever since you were betrothed to the First Prince by the Emperor, Aunt and Third Sister have been plotting to get rid of you. Last time when I went to look for Third sister, I heard aunty say that she wanted to find a way to prevent you from becoming a First Prince's Consort. "

"Zhong's?"

"Big sister, we don't have any solid evidence, so we can't lie. I don't think Auntie will be so cruel. "

Sun Jinzi was a little skeptical in her heart, but how could Zhong's, with his experience and scheming, choose to assassinate him in broad daylight? Such a foolish decision could only be done by one person, and that would be Sun Jinmeng.

"Second sister, aunt has already sent out assassins to kill you, why are you still speaking up for her?"

Sun Jinning frowned, she looked like she was fighting against an injustice.

Jin Chupei folded his arms across his chest and sank into deep thought, his gaze never moving away from Sun Jinzi's body again.

If the killers were sent by the Mrs. Zhong, then who sent people to inform him?

This doubt lingered in Jin Chupei's heart for a long time. This time, the assassination attempt was definitely not as simple as it appeared on the surface. He did not dare to think about things that were deeper.

"His Highness the Sixth Prince, Second sister, stop thinking about that. It must be Aunty and the others." Sun Jinning turned around and glanced at Jin Chupei, and then walked towards the door, "There's nothing left to do now, let's go back first! Sun Mansion is definitely safer than this place. "

As she said that, she pushed open the door, a flustered and flustered figure rushing in from outside, waiting for her body to stabilize herself, then realised that the person was the servant who followed Sun Jinning out.

"Miss, your wife is not feeling well, I've sent word for you to return as soon as possible."

Sun Jinning exclaimed: "What? "My mother's body wasn't feeling well. When we came out just now, she was still fine."

"The person who came said that I don't know what happened to Madam, but she suddenly fainted in the garden."

Sun Jinning then followed the servant and ran in the direction of the Sun Mansion.
