Chapter 348 Fu Jin 55

"Khan Father, I think the Crown Prince's method is excellent. By conducting experiments on death row prisoners, we can more intuitively understand the harm of the longevity cream and avoid the irreversible consequences of directly trying it on ordinary people. In addition, secretly investigating the sales channels and sources will help us cut off the supply of the longevity cream." The Fourth Prince said in agreement.

"Khan Father, I think we should also send someone to investigate whether what is written in this booklet is true. Once we know the truth, we can take precautions early." The Ninth Prince said solemnly.

"That's right, Khan Father, I think Dai Xin is a talented person. Nan Huairen must have had bad intentions in the previous incident. We need to use this person, so we should prepare for the development of firearms as soon as possible." The Tenth Prince echoed. He believed that the most important thing at the moment was to be fully prepared for this. Although they were not fully aware of the ambitions of overseas forces, they must not pin their hopes on others.

"Khan Father, leave it to me. I'll see if they dare to come." The eldest prince said confidently. He might not be familiar with other affairs, but leading troops and fighting is his strong point.

Kangxi pondered for a moment, then slowly said: "Okay, I know what you are thinking. Fourth, ninth, and tenth brothers, you are responsible for thoroughly investigating the matter of Fushou Cream and make sure to find out the truth. Third, fifth, and seventh brothers, you are responsible for secretly bringing Dai Xin back and letting him continue to study firearms. Boss, the military camp affairs will be handed over to you."

"Eighth Brother, Fourteenth Brother, you two should immediately investigate all people and matters related to foreigners to see if anyone in the court is involved." Kangxi said with a gloomy face.

Afterwards, Kangxi asked them to get started, but it was too late and the palace gates were locked, so they could only disperse to discuss the matter.

The Eighth Prince was quite dissatisfied with the Tenth Prince and the Ninth Prince. He thought that he should have been informed of this matter. However, over the years, due to the support of the Ninth Prince and the assistance of the Tenth Prince, the Eighth Prince stood out and was even more dissatisfied in the eyes of Kangxi. Therefore, the Eighth Prince's dissatisfaction with the two became stronger. But he had tried various means, but failed to have a substantial impact on them. Helplessly, he could only watch.

After they left, Kangxi immediately sent his secret guards out of the palace to investigate the overseas situation. He knew that what Lao Shi said was true, but he needed to know the truth more accurately.

The next day, the entire palace fell into a dead silence, and the atmosphere was extremely dull and depressing. No one knew why the palace suddenly became so quiet, as if a silent storm was about to come. At the same time, the emperor and the princes all looked particularly solemn and serious, as if foreshadowing the occurrence of some major event.

The fourth, ninth and tenth princes secretly went to the prison and escorted several death row prisoners. Then, they divided the longevity cream into several portions, two of which were used by two death row prisoners, and the other two were used by two prisoners with larger doses. The last few death row prisoners were asked to swallow the longevity cream directly.

Unexpectedly, the prisoners who swallowed the fushou paste fell to the ground and died soon after. This scene shocked the guards watching around. Because in the early Qing Dynasty, people generally believed that fushou paste was an expensive medicinal tonic. Now seeing that it can directly kill people, people can't help but feel fear and vigilance. If this is true, it will surely cause an uproar and become a shocking event.

When they started this work, several elder brothers clearly warned them not to leak a word, otherwise they would bear the consequences. Now they know the seriousness of this matter and must not get involved. Even if the family behind them is powerful, they are powerless. Therefore, they can only cover their mouths tightly and dare not say a word.

After a few days, the rest of the people also gradually noticed it. Those who took less drugs felt uncomfortable after the supply was stopped, but they could still control it. However, for those who took more drugs, once the supply was cut off, the situation became uncontrollable. They could not bear the onset of drug addiction, and they bit the objects around them crazily, completely losing their minds. Some people hurt themselves, while others begged people around them to give them the longevity cream. Some people were usually very stubborn, but at this moment they knelt down and kowtowed, begging for mercy, begging others to give them the longevity cream.

The guards standing by were so shocked when they saw this. When the Tenth Prince and his men handed the longevity cream to those people, they seemed to lose all their energy in an instant, letting themselves be manipulated without any resistance.

Even more horrifying was that another person, like an out-of-control beast, rammed his head against a wall and committed suicide. Later, they had to tie up the remaining people to prevent them from committing suicide. However, it was incredible that the symptoms of these people became more and more severe like demons, even making them feel creepy.

The Fourth Prince, the Ninth Prince, and the Tenth Prince all looked solemn after seeing this, knowing that this matter was of great importance, and immediately sent someone to report it. When Kangxi saw this scene, it was exactly the scene of those people going crazy, and his face was full of anger.

After Kangxi saw these, he also saw what the Ninth Prince and his friends had handed in. After Kangxi saw them, his expression became more and more difficult to guess. But Liang Jiugong beside him could feel that the emperor was very angry. He couldn't help but feel a little worried, not knowing what would happen next.

Kangxi did nothing else but directly asked people to bring the people in charge of the court in these people's families to the place where the Ninth Prince and his men were doing these things. These people were confused and asked each other about it. No one knew anything, but some of the smart people knew that something had happened, and it was also a very important thing, and they thought it was related to them. But they thought a lot, and didn't know what it was, they just mentioned it in their hearts.

Kangxi had them brought there and handed them over to the Fourth and Ninth Princes. The Fourth and Ninth Princes looked at each other and followed Kangxi's idea to let these people in and look at the few people they left behind who were still alive. Now their faces and bodies were emaciated, as if only a skeleton was left. Their eyes were deeply sunken, revealing despair and fear.

"My Lords, please take a look first, and then speak." The Ninth Prince spoke directly. He didn't want these people to speak first, otherwise there would be too much to say.

Several adults looked at each other, and although they were somewhat dissatisfied, they nodded helplessly. They knew that in this situation, it would be best to follow the arrangements of the Ninth Prince and see what happened next.

They didn't expect that they would encounter the most terrifying situation in their lives.

Of course, the Tenth Prince showed these people as experiments to the ministers. Now is the time when their attacks are about to begin, so they will not use the Fu Shou Cream today.

When several ministers saw those skinny and pale men tied to chairs, they couldn't help but look puzzled.

"My dear brothers, what does this mean?" At this time, a minister finally couldn't help asking. Even now, they didn't understand why they were brought here to see these death row prisoners.

The other ministers also echoed: "Yes, we don't understand what this means, please explain it to us, my brothers."

The Ninth Prince sneered and did not answer their questions, but turned to look at the Tenth Prince. The Tenth Prince nodded, indicating that they could begin.

"Ministers, don't be anxious. We will know the answer in a moment." The Fourth Prince said.

Although the ministers were a little anxious, they could only wait patiently. After a while, those people began to rage one after another, and then there were endless screams and pleas for mercy.

The ministers were shocked when they saw the pain these people were in. They had no idea what was going on. Not long after, seeing that these people were almost done, the Ninth Prince gave a signal and one of them was released. However, this person did not take any action, but just knelt in front of the guard beside him and begged for the longevity cream.

The guard holding the longevity cream moved slightly so that the ministers could clearly see how closely the man stared at the cream. They also witnessed with their own eyes how much the man treasured the cream, as if it were the most precious treasure in the world. This change was jaw-dropping and formed a sharp contrast with the state before the cream was used.

"Okay, ministers, what do you think of this?" The Ninth Prince asked, turning the beads in his hand. The ministers looked at each other, not knowing how to answer for a moment.

"Ninth Prince, what is the matter that has brought us here?" A minister stood up and asked. He was full of doubts and uneasiness, not knowing why the Ninth Prince suddenly summoned them here.

"Okay, since you want to know, I will tell you. This is the longevity cream. These people have become like this because of this." The Ninth Prince spoke directly, with a hint of anger in his voice.

After that, the Ninth Prince had someone explain in detail the harm and effects of Fu Shou Gao to these people. They talked about the serious damage that Fu Shou Gao did to human health and how it caused people to lose their minds and become weak.

"That's it. The reason I asked you to come here this time is because of this matter. I think there must be someone in your family who is taking this longevity paste. I just don't know if you know that the longevity paste can have such harmful effects." The Fourth Prince asked with a stern face, his eyes sharp and firm.

The ministers looked at each other, feeling fear and self-blame. They responded one after another: "We really didn't know about Fushou Cream." Before this, they had always believed that this Fushou Cream was just an ordinary tonic that could enhance physical fitness and immunity. Therefore, when they saw someone in their family was weak or needed nutritional supplements, they would buy and use Fushou Cream without hesitation. However, they never expected that this seemingly harmless medicine could hide such huge harm.

"I won't tell you anything else. It will be very difficult for people who have used the longevity cream to quit for the rest of their lives, and it will have a great impact on the body, making them extremely thin. But people who don't use it much can still quit. It depends on how you plan to do it. But the longevity cream will gradually decrease and disappear in the Qing Dynasty in a short time. The Qing Dynasty strictly prohibits the entry of this thing." The Ninth Prince said seriously.

Hearing this, everyone was shocked and nodded to show that they understood.

"It should be clear what you need to do." said the Fourth Prince.

"Yes, we are aware of this. We will take good care of the people in the clan and make sure this doesn't happen again." Everyone answered in unison.

At this time, they knew they had to make sure it was done well, and they also saw the pain of the people who took the longevity cream, so they clearly understood that they had to make a decision on this matter, and this was also an opportunity given to them by the emperor. If they could not solve this matter well, they would probably have a hard time explaining it to the emperor.

After telling them, in order to let the people of the Qing Dynasty know the harm of this longevity cream, these death row prisoners were taken to the execution ground, so that all the people could see these people having seizures, as well as their self-mutilation and violent appearance.

Fu Shou Gao, also known as opium, is a drug. It is extracted from poppies and has strong anesthetic and addictive properties. Fu Shou Gao once caused great harm in Chinese history. It not only damaged people's physical health, but also led to social unrest and instability.

The earliest drug was introduced to China by the British. In the middle of the 19th century, in order to open up the Chinese market, Britain began to dump a large amount of drug into China. Drugs were cheap and highly addictive, and soon became popular in China. Many people began to take drugs, which caused serious physical and mental damage. The popularity of drugs also led to unrest and instability in Chinese society. Many people lost their jobs and families because of drug use, and even embarked on the road of crime. The popularity of drugs also attracted the attention of the Chinese government. At the end of the 19th century, the Chinese government began to take measures to ban the sale and use of drugs. However, due to the strong addictiveness of drugs, banning the sale and use of drugs is not an easy task. In the early 20th century, the Chinese government began to take more stringent measures to ban the sale and use of drugs. These measures include strengthening the supervision of drugs, cracking down on the smuggling and trafficking of drugs, and strengthening the treatment and rehabilitation of drug users. After years of hard work, the Chinese government finally succeeded in banning the sale and use of drugs. The prohibition of drugs not only protects people's health, but also maintains social stability and security. The prohibition of drugs also lays the foundation for China's anti-drug work.

In short, opiate is a drug that has caused great harm in Chinese history. The Chinese government has taken a series of measures to ban the sale and use of opiates. After years of efforts, it has finally succeeded in banning the sale and use of opiates. The ban on opiates not only protects people's health, but also maintains social stability and security.
