Legend has it that in ancient times, someone offered an elixir of immortality to the King of Jing. When the gatekeeper was about to take it inside, he learned it was the medicine for eternal life and consumed it himself.
The King of Jing was furious and ordered the guard to be put to death. The guard then asked someone to intercede on his behalf, explaining to the King that he had eaten the medicine to test its effects for His Majesty.
Hearing this, the King of Jing decided to spare his life.
