I have been experimenting with medicine in the Palace of Longevity for 30 years

Chapter 117

He Pingan returned to Xiancaotang and found that the business of the pharmacy was much better than before.

In the whole pharmacy, shoulders rubbed against each other, it was very lively.

He greeted Hong Xifei and entered the backyard.

Although he was disturbed when he was divination the secret just now, he still found out some clues.

According to the result of the divination, the monk came from the Alchemy Department of the Palace of Eternal Life.

It is impossible to guess who it is, but among the Alchemy Department, the only Taoist cultivator who can use the alchemy tripod to make utensils and wear purple Taoist robes is Fang Xiandao.

This range has narrowed down a lot.

And there was only one person left with that Taoist cultivator at the fourth rank.

Gongsun Yuanyi, the direct disciple of Tao Zhenren, the master of refining medicine.

On the second day, He Pingan was on duty as usual.

He sneaked into the Alchemy Division last night, but he didn't find Gongsun Yuanyi, and he seemed to be out.

In order to avoid alarming others, he returned to the Immortal Cottage.

At this time, the divine consciousness was faintly scattered, and he found out that Gongsun Yuanyi had returned to the Alchemy Division, and was having a secret conversation in Tao Zhenren's room.

He Ping'an's consciousness approached, but found that there was a restraining formation arranged in the room.

Although this formation can't stop He Ping'an's consciousness, if it is forcibly probed, it will inevitably arouse the vigilance of the two people in the room.

He Pingan had no choice but to slowly withdraw his consciousness.

On the way back, he saw outside the Hall of Eternal Life, a few people dressed as officials talking to the captain guarding the gate.

He didn't care, and took back his consciousness directly.

After about half a cup of tea, Master Wang suddenly came down from upstairs with a serious expression on his face.

"Ping An, did you leave the city the night before yesterday?"

Master Wang asked.

"Yes, I was out of town on an errand."

He Pingan answered truthfully.

The time Master Wang asked was exactly the time when He Pingan took Lu Yong to find Liu Ruoxiang.

Yang Qing stood up and asked, "Old Wang, what happened?"

Ever since his cultivation reached the upper third rank, he has become the person with the highest cultivation in the Department of Medicine. Even when he met Master Wang, he would always call him Old Wang.

Fortunately, he didn't live next door to him, otherwise he would have to be careful about the lady at home if he called her like that.

"Something happened."

Master Wang's expression became more and more serious, and he said: "Just now Jingzhao Mansion sent people to arrest him, saying that Ping'an colluded with them and killed the three guardians of Lichun Courtyard, as well as Liu Ruoxiang, the oiran."

Jingzhao Mansion is in charge of the security of the entire Xuanyang Gyeonggi, including the former Changle County Government, which is also under the jurisdiction of Jingzhao Mansion.

Yin Nai of Jingzhao Mansion is an official of the third grade. Previously, the Changle County Government did not dare to provoke the Palace of Longevity, but Jingzhao Mansion was not afraid.

Han Li interjected from the side, "Do they have evidence for this matter?"

"Brother He can't be wronged for nothing."

Master Wang glanced at Han Li, and said, "The other party doesn't want to talk about the specific situation."

"That's right, safe, now the people of Jingzhao Mansion are waiting at the gate of the Hall of Eternal Life with a summons, I will accompany you for a walk."

Master Wang is quite enthusiastic.

Yang Qing quickly said: "I'll go too, if the other party is overpowering, with me around, the other party will not dare to act rashly."

Master Wang nodded: "Then let's go together."

With Yang Qing, a third-rank cultivator, the other party would indeed be wary.

"I am coming too!"

Han Li quickly raised his hand, ready to pack his things.

"What are you going to do?"

Master Wang glanced at him sideways and said, "It's useless to go with your little cultivation."

Yang Qing said at this time: "If he wants to go, let him go."

Then he whispered to Master Wang: "Xiao Han, the ancestor is the relative of Emperor Xuanming, although he is now in decline, he can help a little."

He Ping'an's heart moved, no wonder this kid's family is so rich, it turned out that it was all passed down from his ancestors.

Hearing Yang Qing's voice transmission, Master Wang thought for a moment, nodded, and the four of them went together.

From the beginning to the end, the three Wang Zhushu did not ask He Pingan what he did out of the city, and whether it had anything to do with the case investigated by Jingzhao Mansion, but instead made He Pingan feel a warm current in his heart.

Under the vermilion gate outside the Hall of Eternal Life, three people dressed as policemen were standing there.

Seeing He Pingan and the others approaching, the eyes of the three lit up, and they hurriedly greeted them.

One of them, a middle-aged man with a dark complexion, who looked like an old farmer, took a few steps forward, and smiled at Master Wang from a distance, "Master Wang, I'm really sorry for your inconvenience."

"This Ping An brother, we will definitely take him over safely and send him back safely."

"There's no need to be too polite to arrest the head. This is He Pingan from our grass department. Let's accompany him there."

Master Wang said, it seemed that the two had known each other before, and they were relatively close.

On the dark face of Xing Butou, he was taken aback for a moment, and then said: "That's a good relationship, just to catch up with Master Wang!"

Along the way, Master Wang was like a clingy goblin, trying to learn some facts about the case from Xingbutou.

This case was not reported by Lichun Court, but by a watchman.

Lu Yong was already arrested yesterday by the Jingzhao Mansion. Because of He Ping'an's special status, it was delayed until today.

He Pingan didn't have much worry in his heart. No one saw the two of them fighting that night.

In the Jingzhao Mansion Yamen, the criminal arrester took He Pingan and the others to the lobby of Jingzhao Mansion, and then went to report to the governor.

Not long after, Jingzhao Fu Yin came out with a smile on his face, and greeted Mr. Wang and others one by one, looking extremely enthusiastic.

At first glance, it looks like an old fritter in the officialdom.

Jingzhao Mansion Yin's surname is Lou, and his single name has the character Hai. He is a middle-aged man with a medium build and a slightly happy appearance. He has a three-inch long beard under his jaw.

"Master Wang, logically, I shouldn't bother you to come over this matter."

"Brother Pingan, I can see that there is no problem at first glance. How could he commit murder and arson?"

Lou Hai's round face was full of kindness, and he said with a smile: "But the top is pressing hard, and three people died and one is missing. I can't explain it here!"

What they said was polite, but they actually said that the higher authorities were very concerned about this case, and even though He Pingan was a member of the Palace of Eternal Life, they could not favor one another.

Master Wang said with a smile on his face, "Lord Lou, you're being polite. Before we came, the subordinate officer specifically reported to Commander-in-Chief. Your Excellency instructed us to fully cooperate with Jingzhao Mansion in handling the case."

Lou Hai was stunned for a moment, then smiled and said, "Such a trivial matter, I really shouldn't disturb the Commander."

Master Wang's words were also very particular, on the surface he cooperated with all his strength, but in fact he said, I have already reported this matter to Commander Tang Wang, and you should be careful when handling the case.

Almost there.

The two fought each other's wits, and after about half an hour, when the head of the criminal arrester had almost passed on the people, they were formally promoted to the court for trial.

The corner of He Pingan's mouth twitched, and he came to this Daxuan by himself. In just a few years, this is the third time to go to court.

If you count the cases that the avatar Luo Xiang helped to handle, then the number will be even more.

It is said that since the lawyer Luo Xiang disappeared in West Market, many people have looked for him.

It's just because the litigator asks for a cheap price, and as long as there is a grievance, the litigator can help the people resolve it.

On the lobby of Jingzhao Mansion, Lou Hai was wearing a crimson robe and a black gauze on his head. He slapped the gavel and shouted: "I am promoted!"
