Nantang's mind quickly flashed back to the scene from seven days ago where Su Yan crouched in a corner, surrounded by dozens of venomous snakes.
Following that, they had not gone far when the piercing screams of a servant and a Princess came.

The sweet taste of strawberry milk spread from her mouth, diverting her attention from the pain in her arm.
Passing through alleys and winding stone pathways, they finally arrived at the location of the Emperor's banquet.
All the court officials of third-rank and above were present.
A circle of guards patrolled attentively, stationed meticulously around the perimeter.
