Chapter 3201: The Probability of Getting the Medicine from Sister Nian Is 0

Nie Qingru raised her chin and ordered her subordinates, “Go and investigate.”

The small pills on the black market were very famous.

After a while, the person she had sent to investigate returned.

“Empress, I’ve found it.”

“Hm? Where?”

“This kind of small pill was seen in the black market in the past, but it has rarely appeared since a year ago. Everyone knows the wonders of this medicine, so those who manage to get it act low-key. It’s very difficult to find a specific buyer,” he said softly.

Nie Qingru frowned fiercely. Her gaze turned cold and she impatiently said, “If you can’t find the buyer, why don’t you check the seller?! Do you even need me to teach you this?”

“It’s… it’s because…” The man’s face turned pale and cold sweat broke out on his back. He was still stammering and could not speak for a long time.

Nie Qingru’s expression became more and more impatient and solemn.

“I’ll do it.” Shadow stepped forward and gestured for the man to leave.

“… Yes, yes.”

The man was relieved. He looked at Shadow gratefully, pursed his lips, and found a corner to hide.

Nie Qingru saw a subtle change in their interaction. Her eyes narrowed dangerously. She adjusted her shawl and slowly said, “Tell me what happened.”

“Yes.”

Shadow did not beat around the bush. “Empress, we found out that the seller of the pill is… Qiao Nian.”

He indeed did not beat around the bush.

However, this was clearly the name Nie Qingru did not want to hear the most.

“It’s her?”

Nie Qingru couldn’t help but be surprised.

Shadow continued with his head lowered. “Yes. Do you still remember the Miracle Doctor from Rao City that Tian Chen found for you when your migraine acted up?”

“I thought she faked her identity to save Lu Zhi.” Nie Qingru was expressionless.

She remembered this.

That was the first time Qiao Nian had seen her.

She could smell the Ji family’s b*stard’s scent from that pair of unruly eyes. The insufferable arrogance that the Ji family could not hide was vividly displayed in the young girl!

In a way, compared to the Ji Qing she gave birth to, Qiao Nian was more like Ji Wusun.

She was cold, indifferent to the world, and calculative. Whoever dared to provoke her would have the favor returned to them a hundredfold. She was unwilling to suffer for half a day!

“That’s not a fake identity.” Shadow saw that her face had paled. He took a deep breath and said in a low voice, “She’s indeed the famous Miracle Doctor of Rao City on the black market. The reason why this Miracle Doctor is so famous on the black market is because she knows how to make this medicine. She’s very close to Zhong Yiliu of the Pharmacy Association. Even Zhong Yiliu praises some of the medicine she makes… That small pill is one of them…”

This was not good news.

Nie Qingru supported her forehead with her hand, closed her eyes, and thought. “If I ask her for it directly, what are the chances of her giving it to me?”

Shadow stole a glance at her expression and helplessly said, “… The probability is 0.”

Nie Qingru opened her eyes and looked at him arrogantly. “0?”

Faced with her question, Shadow had to tell the truth. “With your current relationship with her, it’s fine if she doesn’t know it’s you. We might be able to get the medicine through other channels. If she finds out this is the only medicine that can save Young Master Qi, she might block our drug purchasing channel without hesitation.”

This wasn’t the most terrifying thing.
