Huang Dongjie had promised his second son that he would make the Resurrection Pill. In fact, he was already confident in making the Resurrection Pill.
The problem was that Lu Changsheng needed more than a hundred years to collect the necessary materials to make the Resurrection Pill.
The Dongwu Royal Palace had existed for less than a hundred years, so it was impossible for them to collect herbs as well as Lu Changsheng. Besides, the Dongwu Royal Palace didn't make a living by collecting herbs.
"I have no choice but to go to the imperial palace. I hope that the collection of medicinal herbs in the imperial palace is complete.”
When Huang Dongjie saw that the herbs he had collected were not enough, he thought of the imperial palace.
The Great Xia Empire had existed for more than 800 years. The medicinal herbs accumulated over time were definitely beyond imagination. He had set his sights on the medicinal herb warehouse in the palace.
Palace
"Old Chen, are you sure that Fifth Imperial Uncle is really a backup plan arranged by the previous emperor for me?”
Huang Minglong couldn't help but suspect him. He wanted to see what King Dongwu was doing.
Reading books, playing chess, fishing, tending to plants, staying at home…Was this a human life?
Alright, this was the life of a human being. Huang Minglong was very envious. He also wanted this kind of life, but it was a pity that it was just a thought.
There was no problem with the Dongwu Martial Residence, but he was anxious. The Great Xia Empire was getting worse by the day, and the ancestor was more than 300 years old. He could reach the heavens in a single step at any time.
If the ancestor ascended to the heavens in a single step, the main pillar supporting Great Xia would completely collapse.
If King Dongwu was really a backup plan left behind by the previous emperor, then he should do something.
"Your Majesty, King Dongwu has his own plans. We can't expect everything from him. If we want the Great Xia Empire to last for a long time, it's not something that can be achieved by just one person's hard work.”
Chen Huaijiang was beginning to doubt his own judgment, but he couldn't overturn his previous words in front of the Emperor.
Please give the old man some face and don't ask why.
"How are the transcending powers? Can we continue to sow discord between them?”
Huang Minglong put the matter of Fifth Imperial Uncle aside and asked about the things he was concerned about.
"It's difficult. They're too worried about us. They all think that we're like a starving camel that's bigger than a horse.”
"They think that if they don't overthrow us first, there won't be a big fight between them.”
Chen Huaijiang was also mentally exhausted. Those transcending powers were each more difficult to deal with than the last. They all had their eyes on the Great Xia Empire, wanting to take a bite out of the sick Great Xia Empire.
"What a bunch of bastards. If only, if only our Great Xia had another Great Grandmaster, I wouldn't be in such a difficult position.”
Huang Minglong clenched his fists and said, suppressing his anger.
"Your Majesty, King Dongwu requests an audience."
Huang Minglong and Chen Huaijiang looked at each other when they heard the eunuch's voice.
What was King Dongwu doing in the palace at this time? Could it be that King Dongwu was really a backup plan left behind by the previous emperor and was starting to make a move now?
"Quick, quickly announce it."
Huang Minglong suppressed the countless thoughts in his heart and said.
"Greetings, Your Majesty. Oh, Prime Minister Chen is here too.”
Huang Dongjie came in and greeted him casually.
"May I know why Fifth Imperial Uncle has entered the palace?”
Huang Minglong went straight to the point.
"For the medicinal herbs."
"Medicinal herbs? There should be quite a number of medicinal herbs in the Fifth Imperial Uncle's residence. Could it be that the medicinal herbs that the Fifth Imperial Uncle requested were very precious?”
Huang Minglong asked curiously.
"Your Majesty, you might have misunderstood me. What I'm asking for is not just one or two medicinal herbs, but a large number of medicinal herbs.”
"Large amount?"
Huang Minglong and Chen Huaijiang looked at Huang Dongjie in confusion. Why did he need so many herbs for no reason?
"Your Majesty, you might not know this, but I've recently read a lot of medical books and am very fascinated by the art of refining pills. Unfortunately, the medicinal herbs at home are not enough for me to refine, so I specially came to ask for some medicine from Your Majesty.”
I understand. It means that the medicinal herbs in your house are not enough for you to waste, so you specially came to waste the medicinal herbs in the palace.
"Fifth Imperial Uncle, there are quite a few medicinal herbs in the palace, but each of them has its own use. If he could support the Fifth Imperial Uncle with some medicinal herbs, it would be fine. However, if he wanted a large amount, it would be a little difficult.”
Huang Minglong didn't believe that Fifth Imperial Uncle would be able to refine anything. There was no way he would waste his herbs.
"Your Majesty, the medicinal herbs that have been accumulated for more than eight hundred years are wasted.”
"Seeing that I returned the military authority so quickly, you gave me some medicinal herbs.”
"Prime Minister Chen, regarding your daughter, shouldn't we..."
Huang Dongjie said as if he was discussing business.
"Your Majesty, King Dongwu is your uncle and an elder. If an elder has any requests, please give them some.”
Chen Huaijiang remembered that he still owed Dongwu Imperial Residence for his daughter's matter, so he also begged for medicine for Dongwu King.
"Since Old Chen has already said so, then I'll give one-thousandth of the medicinal herbs in the internal medicinal warehouse to Fifth Imperial Uncle.”
Huang Minglong pondered for a moment and made a decision.
"Not enough."
Huang Dongjie shook his head.
"Fifth Imperial Uncle, do you know how many medicinal herbs there are in the inner medicinal herb warehouse? Just using them as staple food can fill up thousands of people to death, and you still think it's too little?”
Huang Minglong was stunned for a moment before he raised his voice.
Is there so much? It seems that I remembered the capacity of the medicinal herb warehouse wrongly.
However, Huang Dongjie still felt that it was too little.
"Your Majesty, it's really not enough.”
Huang Dongjie laughed.
"It's up to you whether you want it or not."
Huang Minglong said in a non-negotiable tone.
"If I use the Resurrection Pill to exchange for it, how much can I add?”
Huang Dongjie said with a smile. He had thought it through. He would bring the herbs over first and buy some time. He would give them to them after he had refined the Resurrection Pill.
"Revival Pill, Fifth Imperial Uncle, are you really willing to use Revival Pills to exchange for medicinal ingredients?”
Huang Minglong needed the Resurrection Pill. The Resurrection Pill was for the old ancestor just in case. This life-saving sacred pill could also increase the old man's lifespan by a few years.
"Of course, how many herbs can I exchange for?"
Huang Minglong thought about it and gritted his teeth.
"How about 1% of the internal medicine storehouse?”
"Sure, but I have to choose it myself. Otherwise, it won't do without the herbs I want.”
Huang Dongjie agreed, but he suggested choosing the herbs himself.
"As you like, Fifth Imperial Uncle. When are you going to hand over the Resurrection Pills?”
"Very soon."
Huang Dongjie didn't give a specific time. It could be submitted in a day or two days. The specifics would depend on when Huang Dongjie refined the pill.
Seeing that the matter had been settled, Huang Dongjie followed the eunuch to the internal medicine warehouse.
"I want this, I want that too, and this…"
"I want 100 servings of this and all of this.”
Huang Dongjie was in a good mood. The herbs in the internal medicine warehouse were very complete, and almost everything he wanted was there. At this moment, he was holding a thousand-year-old ginseng king as he ordered the eunuchs to pack it up.
"King Dongwu, it's too much. Any more and it won't be 1%.”
The eunuch reminded him carefully.
"Is it too much? Why didn't I know? Go away, go away. I want 100 servings of this too.”
Huang Dongjie saw that the eunuch was not moving at all, so he carried a few large bags of medicinal herbs and threw them onto the carriage.
Huang Dongjie still felt that throwing away a few more bags was not enough. He wanted to go back and get a few more bags, but he realized that the eunuch had locked the door of the inner medicine warehouse.
"Petty!"
Huang Dongjie could only let it go, but he was very satisfied with his results.
The extra bags he carried were three to four hundred catties. In addition, he had secretly used Universe Creator to collect a lot of medicinal herbs when no one was paying attention. It was not much, but it was at least a thousand catties.
In other words, other than this 1% of the medicinal herbs, he had also earned about 1,500 catties of medicinal herbs. As for what would happen if the inner herb storehouse counted the herbs and found that there were fewer herbs, that was none of his business.
