Emperor Feiyu fell ill. The news suddenly spread in the palace the next day. The court routine had to be postponed, which allowed Jiang Wen to visit Ye Ningjie earlier. The older man immediately came to Cheng Yue Palace.
"Miss Ning, what about the plan for making the antidote?" Jiang Wen asked carefully. He watched Ye Ningjie, who was sitting lazily in her chair.
"It won't work. Failed," Ye Ningjie replied. She looked at Jiang Wen and asked him to sit down. "I still haven't gotten the Swamp Bamboo."
Jiang Wen was a little surprised. "Have you obtained the Moon Grass yet? Where can you find that?"
Ye Ningjie did not answer immediately. She looked around before finally whispering. "I went to the black market."
"What?!" Jiang Wen immediately stepped back in surprise. How could that girl go to the black market? Hadn't she always been tightly locked up in this palace?
