The Chinese Army Camp, outside the Pill Department.
There were constant noises.
He Ping'an was stopping a middle-aged, thin man dressed as a third-grade official, and seemed to be arguing with him about something.
"Master Gao, please remember that I asked for fifty kilograms of chalcedony mushroom before, but I only got twenty kilograms as a gift. And this purple monkey flower, I asked for thirty-five kilograms..." "
He Pingan asked.
Today, the transfer envoy brought the medicinal herbs, but He Pingan found that the quantity of the medicinal herbs was not high.
I happened to see the transfer envoy from the transfer envoy department passing by nearby, so I stopped him and asked him why.
Before he finished speaking, He Pingan's voice was rudely interrupted by the third-grade official.
"Master He, I'm only responsible for transportation. As for why there are only these spiritual herbs, I don't know!"
The middle-aged man replied impatiently.
Since Daxuan's army entered southern Xinjiang, the previous supply channels for elixirs and other raw materials from the Eternal Life Palace have been unable to arrive.
It can only be transferred to the transshipment department responsible for transporting grain and grass.
And this middle-aged man is the third-grade transfer envoy of the Ministry of Household Affairs and the chief officer of the transfer envoy department.
"Really?"
"Master Gao?"
He Pingan glanced at this person meaningfully. His consciousness had already discovered the remaining spiritual herbs on the spiritual boat where the luggage was stored.
The spiritual herb has clearly arrived, but he didn't send the elixir department. Could this person be trying to make things difficult for him?
I'm afraid that he will be kicked onto the iron plate.
"Of course, this is the only spiritual grass. There is nothing extra. You can take it if you like it."
"I am busy with worldly affairs, and I also have to be responsible for the Holy Emperor's affairs, so I won't chat with Lord He!"
Envoy Gao Zhuan met He Ping'an's sharp gaze, avoided it without any trace, and looked to the other side.
Feeling guilty, she didn't dare to look at him at all.
Then he realized that he, a dignified third-grade household official, could be afraid of him, the head of the Alchemy Department, and became a little angry.
Emperor Longqing moved out and wanted to suppress He Ping'an.
Hey, it’s pretty fierce!
He Ping'an saw that the other party was so aggressive. Originally, he didn't care about such little scum at all.
And he also has his own method for the source of spiritual grass.
Even without this channel, I can still get spiritual herbs.
But if the other party deliberately makes things difficult for me, if I just tolerate it like this, I will really waste my reputation as a Dragon Riding Martial Saint.
Even the group of alchemists who follow him will definitely look down on him.
"If that's the case, then I'll go look for the spiritual grass myself!"
He Ping'an's eyes drifted towards the spirit boat suspended in mid-air intentionally or unintentionally, and he spoke.
"He Ping'an, don't push yourself too far!"
Seeing that He Ping'an seemed to have discovered the hiding place of the spiritual grass, Gao Zhuan envoy sternly threatened: "You are just a first-level medicine tester. You were lucky enough to get an official position. I don't know where the shit luck came from, and you got to be a refiner." The head of the Pharmacy Department, do you really think you are a green onion?"
"I told you that the spiritual grass is on the spiritual boat, but I won't give it to you!"
After finishing speaking, Gao Zhuanyuan turned around and prepared to leave.
In his heart, He Ping'an didn't have the guts to stop him, otherwise, the supply of spiritual grass behind him would definitely be deducted by half.
Even if He Pingan goes to the higher authorities, he won't be too worried. He has too many ways to deal with officials like He Pingan who have no roots and no foundation and have climbed up completely by luck.
Ha... He Ping'an almost laughed angrily. He had seen arrogant people before, but never such an arrogant one.
Wu Fan was so arrogant that he got himself killed.
The two princes of the Dragon King of the East China Sea were also skinned and cramped by themselves.
You, a small official of the third rank, but only a third rank of Confucianism and Taoism, how dare you be so arrogant.
I don’t know whose relationship is behind it!
What is unbearable? Green light appeared in He Ping'an's eyes, and he was about to activate the soul-stirring technique.
At this moment, he had a thought in his heart and put away the mana surging in his body. However, his body flashed and once again stood in front of the high transporter, preventing him from leaving.
"He Ping'an, you are looking for death!"
With a thought in Gao Zhuan's heart, righteousness burst out from his chest, and he was ready to take action.
But just as the light came on, a breeze blew in front of him, immediately blowing away the awe-inspiring righteousness in his body.
"who is it!"
Gao Zhuan turned his eyes and looked at the two figures who had just appeared beside him. He was about to get angry, but when he saw the appearance of the people coming, his expression changed and he quickly bowed and saluted: "I have seen the real Chongyang!"
The two people who suddenly appeared were Master Chongyang and Master Changchun.
"Who are you and why are you so aggressive here?"
Master Chongyang frowned and glanced at the third-grade official in front of him.
There are at least hundreds of officials above the third rank of Daxuan. He is the top monk of the Daxuan Dao Sect, so naturally he will not recognize all the officials above the third rank.
At most, you only need to know first-grade officials.
"Gao Zhaojiang, the transfer envoy to Xiaguan, and Liu Yongnai, the Minister of Household Affairs, are Xiaguan's teachers. They pay homage to the Chongyang Master."
Gao Zhaojiang bowed and saluted again, quickly introduced himself, and promptly introduced his teacher Liu Yong.
"Hubu Liu Yong?"
When Master Chongyang heard Liu Yong's name, he obviously thought about it and was a little impressed.
When Gao Zhaojiang saw the change in Master Chongyang's face, he knew that reporting the teacher's name was indeed useful. He was overjoyed and complained first: "The official was passing by the elixir department, but he was harassed and insulted for no reason by the chief He Ping'an. I couldn't control it for a moment..."
"Really?"
Master Chongyang looked suspicious and turned to the side to look at He Pingan.
Master Changchun looked unbelieving and wanted to defend He Ping An, but he didn't understand the truth.
As expected of a Confucian, he is really good at distorting facts... He Ping'an was silent for a moment, and was about to explain, but his heart moved again.
What is going on? How come these two old immortals have come to my place?
"The area within three feet of me belongs to the elixir department!"
As a voice sounded, Haoran's righteousness suddenly burst out outside the pill department, and dazzling white light shot out in all directions. When the white light subsided, a middle-aged Confucian scholar in white robes appeared in front of everyone.
"Master Liu, why are you here?"
Master Chongyang's eyes were not disturbed by the white light, and he immediately recognized the person's appearance and asked in surprise.
"Hey, you are here too, you awesome guy?"
As soon as Liu Sheng appeared, he saw Chongyang Zhenren's master and disciple, and then he saw He Ping'an, and his eyes suddenly lit up.
As long as He Ping'an is here, that's easy to say.
As for Gao Zhaojiang, he didn't take it seriously at all.
Before Master Chongyang could answer, he heard a cold and sharp voice from outside the elixir department: "Your Majesty is here!"
As the voice fell, Emperor Longqing was seen walking over, followed closely by Chen Daban.
When he saw Master Chongyang and Liu Sheng, Emperor Longqing looked surprised and asked curiously: "Two seniors, are you here too?"
...
