Chapter 202: Planning the Operation (2/2)

After Ying Lan left, Bai Luochu checked the stock of the remaining medicinal ingredients. The sleeping incense had to be used on the Phoenix King Valley Elder, but an ordinary sleeping incense would be ineffective. She had to refine a stronger version in order to knock the elder out for a long time. She was looking for ingredients to refine the stronger incense.

As for those core disciples... Bai Luochu brought out the box with all her refined elixirs and rummaged through it. After searching for a long time, she finally found an unremarkable red ceramic bottle. She opened it up and confirmed that the thing inside was the one she had been looking for before closing the lid with satisfaction. She weighed it in her hand and muttered softly, “It seems like I will have to go ask him for a favor tomorrow. That old fox... I wonder if this elixir will be able to satisfy him.”

Who else could she be referring to other than the Second Prince, Pei Qingfeng?

The next day, early in the morning, Bai Luochu completed her morning cultivation and she entered the study room. She ground some ink and started to write on a piece of paper.

When Cai Ling entered to deliver breakfast, she was rather surprised, “Why is Mistress writing a visitation card so early in the morning?”

Bai Luochu was startled when questioned by Cai Ling. Instead of explaining herself, she asked Cai Ling in return, “Do you think he will meet me?”

“Mm... This servant doesn’t know. Normally, a card is supposed to be sent one day in advance. If they are busy, the card has to be delivered several days in advance.” Cai Ling carefully explained the use of the visitation card.

Bai Luochu felt awkward after listening to Cai Ling’s explanation, “I need a favor from him... However, is this too last minute?”

“Who is Mistress going to visit?” Cai Ling didn’t wish to crack down on her mistress’s character, hence, she asked prudently.

Bai Luochu looked up and replied, “I am visiting Pei Qingfeng. I have to ask him for a favor.”

Cai Ling laughed, “Since it’s the Second Prince, Mistress can feel at ease. Just go ahead and show up. The Second Prince doesn’t need to attend the imperial court assembly. He is free all the time.

Even if His Second Highness isn’t free, as long as you show up, His Second Highness will surely spare out some time.
