To divorce his wife, the top scholar preferred being cuckolded to wearing a red hat.

The three days are about to end.

Su Mingyue is still too busy to handle everything right now.

Physician Hu called Su Mingyue and Zhu Sha over, saying he wanted to take them to see the effects of the two prescriptions.

The winning side will have the final solution to eradicate the virus in Qingzhou City and will report to the imperial court, becoming a meritorious official in the Qingzhou City affair.

Zhu Sha never expected that a casual idea she came up with would develop like this.

At first, she just wanted Su Mingyue to know that her recipes were superior to Su Mingyue's.

But now, she felt uncertain.

If Su Mingyue had won, her prescription would have been widely circulated and sent to the imperial court for archiving. The court would have also regarded her as a meritorious official and rewarded her handsomely, which was not the outcome she desired.

No, she must win this match today.

She would never allow Su Mingyue to steal the spotlight in Qingzhou City.

If Su Mingyue steals the spotlight this time, the prince will pay even less attention to her.

"I don't know how to judge whether the prescription is good or bad. Should we base it on the number of people taking the medicine these past few days, or should we refer to other factors? Speaking of numbers, we had more people on our side yesterday and the day before. Today, I guess the medicine from the previous two days is working, and everyone's physical condition is better, so they haven't come to take the medicine. As for Miss Su, there were fewer people on the day before yesterday and yesterday, but today there have suddenly been more people." Zhu Sha spoke softly.

"Miss Zhu, please rest assured. Since this is a competition, we will be fair and impartial. We will examine the patients on both sides one by one to determine which prescription is better. The Prince also said that if both prescriptions are good, they can be used together and reported to the court to receive the court's reward."

It's definitely not acceptable to have her name mentioned alongside Su Mingyue's.

Between her and Su Mingyue, only one of them can step forward. If they both step forward, everyone will only focus on her identity.

“I naturally believe in the fairness between the Prince and you. Then please, Physician Hu and the Prince, begin. I also want to know whose prescription is better, mine or Miss Su’s.”

Physician Hu glanced at Su Mingyue, then at Zhu Sha, and seeing that they were all ready, turned to Xiao Zhan: "Your Highness, now that Miss Zhu and Miss Su have arrived, I shall begin."

"let's start."

"Let me announce the rules, there are three in total. First, from day one, we have been randomly tracking patients from both sides, and we will announce their reactions later. Second, we will take the pulses of patients from both sides on-site to see their recovery progress. Third, we will check for any other adverse reactions and compare the prescriptions from both sides to see whose prescription is more beneficial to the body's recovery. Eliminating the virus while ensuring that our bodies can recover to their original state is what everyone wants to see, right? These three conditions are the result of discussions between me and the other doctors. Do you two ladies have anything to add?"

"I'd like to add one point: I hope this is just a simple evaluation of the prescriptions, without involving personal connections. When it comes to connections, I can't compete with Miss Su. After all, she had the ability to get you and the Prince to revise my prescriptions on the very first day she came here."

"That's natural. Today we're just discussing prescriptions, nothing else," Physician Hu nodded.

"I have no objection, Physician Hu, please begin."

Physician Hu quickly divided into two groups with the other doctors to review the previous follow-up records. Then he had the twenty people brought over and took their pulses and asked them questions on the spot.

They were taking notes from time to time. Su Mingyue and Zhu Sha sat to one side, so it was impossible to see what they wrote or what the result was.

Soon, the second stage began.

He provided on-site medical consultations to patients.

The patients were all found on the spot; they signed up themselves. Afterwards, they were asked to vote and whose prescription they supported more.

Zhu Sha looked at the time, thinking that there should be some news from Pharmacist Song soon, but there was still no news when the second level ended and the third level began.

She couldn't help but feel anxious.

If she doesn't make a scene, what will happen if Su Mingyue wins?

After the second round ended, the third round quickly began, which involved comparing the side effects of taking the two different remedies.

These procedures were all completed by Physician Hu and the other doctors. Zhu Sha and Su Mingyue didn't interfere at all. The two sat to one side, one drinking tea with a calm demeanor, while the other kept her eyes fixed on Physician Hu and his team, afraid that they might do something underhanded.

By comparing the data at hand, the doctors can draw their own conclusions.

Suddenly, a patient rushed towards them.

"Dr. Zhu, save me, save me!" A young woman cried out. "I've been following your advice and drinking your medicine for the past three days, but my condition hasn't improved; in fact, it's gotten worse. I just started vomiting blood uncontrollably. You're a miracle doctor, please save me!" As she spoke, the woman knelt before Zhu Sha, begging her to save her.

Zhu Sha looked at the woman who had suddenly appeared, her face a picture of utter excitement.

"You say you've been taking my medicine all along, what proof do you have?" People who rush out at this time are bound to be slanderous.

Su Mingyue is truly despicable; she'll stop at nothing to win against her.

“I’ve been getting my medication from you, and I’ve finished all of it. I have no proof.”

"Without evidence, how can you prove that you took the medicine here? Did you take someone else's medicine and now you're feeling unwell, so you've come to me? I can help you, but you must clearly state where you took the medicine from, and you can't falsely accuse me."

The other person said that after taking her medicine, their condition worsened.

She wouldn't believe such an obvious flaw.

The young woman did not expect that Dr. Zhu, faced with her condition, would not rush to save her, but instead made her deny drinking her medicine.

She was so angry that she spat out another mouthful of blood.

"Miss Su, could it be that some people are playing tricks on the Prince to try and beat me?" Zhu Sha asked Su Mingyue.

Su Mingyue did not respond to her, but walked up to the young woman and took her pulse.

The young woman had a very strong reaction to the cinnabar, and the side effects were too severe. Her heart and lungs were damaged after drinking it, which is why she vomited blood.

"Dr. Zhu, people call you a miracle doctor, but instead of saving her, you're here arguing about whose medicine she drank," Su Mingyue sneered.

A hint of embarrassment flashed across Zhu Sha's face, but she quickly regained her composure.

"Of course I need to find out the details so I can prescribe the right treatment later."

"So what do you want her to say? That she drank it here and that this situation is because my recipe was wrong?"

"Doctor, can you save me? What's wrong with me? Am I going to die?" The young woman looked at Su Mingyue with a desire to live in her eyes.
