Chapter 132: Itachi are my only candidate

These three were all serious criminals.

Their sentences were all over thirty years.

In this world where the average age was only about 50, this was almost equivalent to a death sentence for them.

But there were other ways to reduce sentences, allowing them to get out of prison early.

Just like being a test subject this time.

One test could reduce their time by two years.

But if they were unlucky and tested a poison, they could only blame their own bad luck.

Every time they tested medicine, it was equivalent to walking through the gates of hell for these people.

If they were lucky, they lived; if they were unlucky, they died.

After eating the white pills, they all shivered, waiting for the medicine to take effect.

But after waiting for a long time, they didn't feel any abnormal changes.

It wasn't that there were no changes, but the place where the changes occurred was somewhat embarrassing, leaving them not knowing how to respond for a moment.

The servant had sharp eyes, noticed the changes in a certain part of their bodies, and immediately leaned into the Daimyo’s ear to whisper.

The Daimyo nodded slightly, and then the three were taken to another room.

The three thought the testing was over, but before they could breathe a sigh of relief, after arriving in the other room, they saw several disheveled, ugly women.

Even though they would normally feel disgusted just looking at these faces, today, for some reason, they actually felt a heat in their bodies.

The servant closed the door and tightly shut all the doors and windows.

One month later.

A piece of news quietly began to spread within the Land of Fire.

"Have Itachi heard? The Daimyo is going to have another heir!"

"Really? The Daimyo is probably nearly sixty now, right? He can actually still..."

"Shh! Keep your voice down, do Itachi want to die?"

"Isn't this the topic Itachi brought up?"

"However, the Daimyo is truly heroic, to be able to conceive an heir at such an advanced age, he is truly worthy of being our Daimyo."

"Maybe the Daimyo is well-maintained; after all, the Daimyo is not like us commoners, he eats precious things."

Two people dressed as farmers were whispering on the side.

Suddenly, another farmer leaned in and said mysteriously.

"What Itachi know is not the complete story."

"I know the truth of the matter!"

The other two farmers immediately became interested and kept asking.

"How do Itachi know?"

"What is the truth?"

"Could it be that the child is not the Daimyo’s?"

The mysterious farmer pulled the two into an alley and said lightly.

"The child is indeed the Daimyo’s."

"But, the Daimyo actually used a magical medicine."

The two farmers looked at each other in confusion.

"Medicine?"

…………

Similar rumors were spreading everywhere in the towns of the Land of Fire.

People couldn't distinguish between true and false.

Commoners just treated it as after-dinner conversation.

Even if they were interested, they had no channels to learn more information.

But those wealthy merchants and nobles all took it to heart.

It was hard for commoners to raise a child, but for these wealthy people, raising a child was nothing.

Being able to have a qualified successor was the most important thing for them.

And it was much easier for them to find out the truth than for commoners.

Nobles could go to the Daimyo to probe, and wealthy merchants could bribe people around the Daimyo to get information.

In short.

Not long after, they all knew the truth of the matter.

The sixty-year-old Daimyo had actually made a concubine pregnant!

This news immediately excited them.

And after continuing to explore, they found that the matter shifted back to Senju Hoshiya.

For a time, the wealthy merchants and nobles who wanted to visit and buy medicine were endless.

But none of them saw Senju Hoshiya.

Senju Hoshiya had left all of this to Boss Jiao to handle.

"Ten million per dose, no bargaining."

This was the bottom line Senju Hoshiya gave to Boss Jiao.

As for how much Boss Jiao could increase on this basis, that was Boss Jiao’s ability.

In any case, this was a highly profitable industry.

The money spent on researching medicine could be said to be not worth mentioning.

After handing over everything to Boss Jiao, Senju Hoshiya hid at home to enjoy the comfortable atmosphere.

"Why didn't Itachi tell me about this?"

Yuan Yuan Yuan Shizhi sat opposite him, sipping fragrant tea with him.

Senju Hoshiya smiled and said.

"No need to worry, this is just for publicity."

"That child cannot threaten Itachi, nor can it threaten Senju Senju Liya."

Yuan Yuan Yuan Shizhi’s eyes flowed, and she said softly...

"After Senju Senju Liya is three years old, I might go back."

Senju Hoshiya nodded and said.

"I will be your eternal backing."

"At that time, I will always arrange a clone by your side to protect your safety."

Yuan Yuan Yuan Shizhi bit her lip and couldn't help but roll her eyes at him.

"Itachi actually don't even say a word to keep me?"

Senju Hoshiya said with a smile.

"Are Itachi willing to stay for me?"

"I thought Itachi cared more about your ambition."

Yuan Yuan Yuan Shizhi was silent.

Then she said softly.

"I am willing to stay for Itachi."

"But I also know that your goal is not just a small Hidden Leaf."

"Rest assured, I will seize the position of Daimyo, not just for myself, but also for your future plans."

The smile on Senju Hoshiya’s face faded.

Then he sighed.

"Itachi’ve worked hard."

Yuan Yuan Yuan Shizhi shook her head gently and said.

"This is the path I chose, so I will naturally continue to walk it."

"After all, with Itachi behind me, I have no fear anymore."

Senju Hoshiya smiled and pulled her into his arms.

"Worthy of being Senju Hoshiya’s woman, go ahead and do whatever dreams Itachi have, I will definitely support Itachi with all my might."

Senju Tsunade was now the Hokage of the Hidden Leaf.

Once Yuan Yuan Yuan Shizhi went back to seize the position of Daimyo, the entire Land of Fire would be completely under Senju Hoshiya’s control.

At that time, whatever Senju Hoshiya wanted to do, it would be much easier than it was now.

The promotion of this pregnancy medicine could also be done easily.

Instead of using small schemes to make it spread.

"Father, Mother."

Senju Senju Liya’s voice was childish, but it also had a sense of majesty.

She looked at her mom and dad hugging together and said seriously.

"I have already prepared, I can follow Mother at any time."

Pfft.

Yuan Yuan Yuan Shizhi couldn't help but laugh out loud, then hugged her cute daughter tightly in her arms.

"Senju Senju Liya is the best, actually knowing how to worry about Mother."

"But don't worry, it's not the time yet, Senju Senju Liya just needs to stay obediently with Father."

"When I pick Itachi up, Itachi will be the candidate for the Daimyo of the Land of Fire."

"The only candidate."
