Ch. 563 - Clinical Trial [Part 4]

Finally, something was wrong.

Sun Shaozong was overjoyed at the moment. Although he could be certain that there was something fishy in this medicine with this unlucky name, he returned overnight without success, and there was also Prince Zhongshun watching closely. If he had no pressure in his heart, it would be an exaggeration.

Just waiting for Sun Shaozong to rush closer with enthusiasm, he couldn't help but feel disappointed.

The death row inmate vomited blood, but it was not because of poisoning, but because he had his tongue cut by a crab shell

Moreover, the injury was not very serious. He rinsed his mouth with tea, and the bleeding quickly stopped.

Sun Shaozong looked silently at the death row inmate. Seeing that he had been urged by the inner guards to eat the sea fortress again, but no longer dared to touch the plate of crabs, he ordered the eunuch to give the plate of crabs to another death row inmate.

However, the death row inmate next door was not very fond of this thing either. He only gritted his head and chewed on two of them before completely ignoring it.

However, this type of crab was a common freshwater crab in the north today, commonly known as the black-headed general. It had never been seen by Sun Shaozong before his time traveling, so it seemed that it had long been extinct.

The reason why it was called the black-headed general was that after cooking this thing, it did not turn red like other crabs, but rather had a yellow pincer black body. Second, it was because of its thick shell and numerous thorns, making it the most difficult to deal with in freshwater crabs.

In addition, this thing was not very large in volume, with very little meat inside, and it was extremely prone to death and spoilage when it came out of the water, so the common people rarely consumed this thing.

But the taste of this black-headed general was quite good. In terms of its freshness and deliciousness, things like Yangcheng Lake's hairy crabs were probably better than others.

As a result, this black-headed general became a frequent guest at the table of wealthy families.

Anyway, they didn't have to do it themselves. No matter how troublesome it was, the servants would do it, and it could also showcase their status and identity. It was like killing two birds with one stone.

When Sun Shaozong ate this thing, at least three or four servants were responsible for peeling the shells next to him; otherwise, that bit of meat wouldn't even be enough to taste. This thing had to be cooked while it was hot; if peeled out in advance, it wouldn't taste good.

At present, it was normal for this thing to appear at the royal banquet during the autumn high crab season.

Anyway, the Emperor wouldn’t be short of people to peel it.

Wait!

Thinking of this, Sun Shaozong's heart suddenly moved, and he quickly asked Chen Banxia to call Qin Ming, who was sleeping in the palace, to inquire. "Qin, did you also arrange to send a Supervisor to monitor you when you tried the medicine?"

"Yes, that's natural."

Qin Ming originally thought something unexpected had happened. When he heard that he was asking about this matter, his energy and spirit burst out, and he yawned, saying, "Without a supervisor, let alone whether there would be any negligence, these death row inmates are all masters of killing and profiteering. Who dares to let them be alone?"

That was right!

If it weren't for the supervisor's urging, the death row inmates who enjoyed this bite might even be careful to peel off a few and eat them.

But with someone urging behind them and no rule requiring them to eat all of this difficult thing, the death row inmates naturally hid it lightly.

As a result, the amount of food consumed by the death row inmates during their meals was more than a fraction of what a normal person would consume.

One should know that this thing was famous for its meatiness. Putting three or five of them together was not enough to fill the gaps between teeth. Even if he casually picked up a few chopsticks, it needed to start with at least ten.

And the crab was also a regular on the "ingredient balance" menu, especially after the black-headed generals were cooked, who would know if there was anything special about it?

Perhaps it was these details that successfully fooled the drug test for the "Recovering One’s Youth Pill."

"There is a trade-off between eating habits."

However, after hearing Sun Shaozong's words, Qin Ming shook his head and said, "But we still have to eat this thing as our main staple food. Even if our diet is incompatible, it's just diarrhea. Moreover, Prince Zhongshun often eats this thing, and we haven't seen anything inappropriate about him for most of the year."

"Isn't it true that the Prince hasn't used sandalwood before?"

Sun Shaozong casually pointed to the incense burner and said, "Perhaps there can be some mixed effect between these three!"

"This..."

Qin Ming frowned and pondered for a moment, "It's not without this possibility."

Just a glimmer of possibility was enough to try!

Therefore, without further ado, Sun Shaozong called on the inner guards to join forces and help the death row inmate strip off more than twenty black-headed generals.

Then, there was a long agony and waiting…

Half an hour later.

"Suck, suck again!"

Accompanied by the eunuch's rhythmic commands, two death row inmates gathered around the incense burner, swallowing smoke and tears streaming down their faces. From a distance, they seemed to be practicing immortality, but up close, they seemed to be smoking heavily.

Seeing that the sandalwood and spices had already burned almost half, Sun Shaozong couldn't help but urge, "Alright, quickly give them tea to moisten their throats, and then go to bed to test the medicine!"

The two death row inmates, like hearing the sound of heaven, gulped down tea and chewed on tea leaves before entering the palace surrounded by everyone.

The four large beds were still placed in the hall, and the private prostitutes were still waiting on the beds, but they no longer had the energy to come down from the beds to attract guests.

It was not tiring; it was mainly because they were used to sleeping in the dark and waking up at night. In the morning, it was always their time to get back to bed, and it was good if they could barely respond. Without being pressured, how could they have the intention to come and attract customers?

Fortunately, after yesterday's tempering, the two death row inmates had already let go of their shame. As soon as they entered the door, they stripped themselves naked and found a heartwarming one among the fat and thin circles. Going up there, they went straight to the end and got to work!

It could be said that the lighting equipment in these years has limited effectiveness. Even if dozens of candles were lit last night, how could they match the high-definition code-free sky and white sun?

As the war escalated, the lackluster eunuchs were also stirred up and offered suggestions, pushing this bustling scene to an unprecedented level.

And at this very moment…

A eunuch in charge of close observation suddenly shouted, "Lord Qin, come and take a look. This person seems to be a bit out of place!"

Upon hearing these words, Qin Ming naturally dared not neglect them and quickly approached to observe with Sun Shaozong and Chen Banxia.

But seeing the death row inmate on the bed in a state of panic, there was a hint of confusion on his face, clearly not feeling anything strange about him.

Even the little eunuchs who constantly provide technical support on the side were inexplicably tight.

However, among the three people who came forward to observe, two were renowned medical experts in the world, and the other could also work part-time as a forensic doctor. Naturally, they soon discovered the inadequacies of this death row prisoner.

"Bring the records from yesterday."

Qin Ming waved his hand, and the imperial physician immediately took out the file of the death row prisoner from the medicine box and presented it with both hands.

"Give it to me!"

Sun Shaozong took the lead and scanned everything at a glance, quickly finding what he was looking for on the second page; a description of last night's physical features.

He excitedly pointed to the record and said, "Although the record was not very detailed, the veins on his neck and forehead yesterday probably didn't swell as much as this time!"

"The pulse is not right either!"

Chen Banxia stretched his neck and looked at it for a while, also added, "It's too fast and too intense."

Qin Ming made his conclusion, "If he continues like this, there is a high probability that he will be hit by a stroke immediately!"

The death row inmate heard these three combos. His face turned pale with fear. How could he dare to continue to touch a woman's body?

Trembling, he slipped out of the bed and said, "Master, spare my life."

"Tie him to the bed!"

But how could Sun Shaozong allow him to retreat from the battlefield?

Besides, this guy was already a notorious villain and didn’t deserve sympathy at all.

Therefore, with an immediate command, several guards, like wolves and tigers, pressed this scumbag onto the bed.

But it was not possible for him alone.

Therefore, Sun Shaozong conditioned a heavy reward, "Whoever can let him vent his body, I will reward them with a hundred taels of silver and allow them to escape punishment and become virtuous!"

With this sentence, ten prostitutes were all excited. They rushed forward one after another and stacked on the death row prisoner. If the guards had not intervened in time, they might have suffocated the death row prisoner before the wind blew.

Seeing that this place was in full swing, Sun Shaozong didn't wait and ordered someone to notify the Imperial Kitchen. Then, he cooked 180 black-headed generals and sent them over to verify whether this was an isolated case.

"He's not breathing, he's not breathing anymore!"

As soon as he handed over the task, he heard the top-ranked private prostitute exclaim with joy, "Hahaha, he's not breathing anymore!"

Something finally went wrong!
