Chapter 263: You are my only candidate

These three are all serious criminals.

Their sentences are all over thirty years.

In this world where the average age is only about 50, this is almost equivalent to sentencing them to death.

But there are other ways to reduce sentences, allowing them to be released from prison early.

Just like this time, acting as test subjects.

Testing once can reduce the time by two years.

But if they are unlucky and test a poison, then they can only blame their own bad luck.

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

If they are lucky they live, if they are unlucky they die.

After eating the white pill, they all shiver while waiting for the medicine to take effect.

But after waiting for a long time, they do not feel any abnormal changes.

It is not to say there are none, but the place of change is a bit awkward, making them not know how to respond for a moment.

The servant has sharp eyes, notices the change in a certain part of their bodies, and immediately whispers into the Daimyo's ear.

The Daimyo nods slightly, and then these three are taken to another room.

The three think the testing is over, but before they can breathe a sigh of relief, after arriving in another room, what they see are a few disheveled, ugly women.

Clearly, faces that they would feel disgusted by even looking at normally, but today, for some reason, they actually feel a heat in their bodies.

The servant closes the door and shuts all doors and windows tightly.

One month later.

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

"Have you heard? Daimyo-sama is going to have another heir!"

"Really? Daimyo-sama is already at an advanced age, probably nearly sixty, right? He can actually still..."

"Shh! Keep your voice down, do you not want your life?"

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

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

"Maybe Daimyo-sama takes good care of himself, after all, the Daimyo is different from us commoners, he eats precious things."

Two people dressed as farmers are whispering on the side.

Suddenly, another farmer comes over and says mysteriously.

"What you know is not the complete story."

"I know the truth of the matter!"

The other two farmers immediately become interested and keep asking.

"How do you know?"

"What is the truth?"

"Could it be that the child is not Daimyo-sama's?"

The mysterious farmer pulls the two into an alley and says lightly.

"The child is indeed Daimyo-sama's."

"But, Daimyo-sama actually borrowed a magical medicine."

The two farmers look at each other in confusion.

"Medicine?"
