After picking up a childbirth system, I pampered the harem

Just when several imperial doctors were helpless and scratching their heads in anxiety, good news suddenly came.

"Your Majesty, my subordinates followed your instructions and left two people alive. After being tortured and forced to confess, they revealed what kind of poison was quenched on the arrows." The leader of the guards came in and reported back to Emperor Jiaqing.

After Emperor Jiaqing left with Jiang Wan, they fought against the group of assassins and fought hard.

When the assassins saw that the assassination failed and knew that their reinforcements would arrive soon, they wanted to retreat.

But how could they let those assassins leave, entangle them, and prevent them from leaving.

Fortunately, the support came in time, and with the reinforcements joining in, the assassins soon became unable to resist and collapsed.

Because Emperor Jiaqing had ordered that they be left alive, they did not kill all of these assassins, but planned to capture a few alive for interrogation.

Those assassins are dead warriors, and they will take poison to commit suicide after being caught by them. However, they are not fools. They know that these assassins are dead warriors, so they are well prepared. When the assassins are about to bite the poison hidden in their mouths, they will commit suicide by taking the poison. Sometimes, they pinched their chins to prevent them from committing suicide.

They had just interrogated the captured assassin.

One of the two assassins had a tight mouth and was very courageous, so no matter how they tortured him, the other assassin did not confess. On the other hand, the other assassin couldn't bear it as well as his companions. Under their harsh torture to extract confessions, he finally couldn't stand it anymore.

After he learned from the assassin that Concubine Hui was poisoned, he did not dare to waste time and rushed over immediately to tell the emperor the news.

"What kind of poison is it?" When Emperor Jiaqing heard the words of the leader of the guards, he suddenly showed joy and looked at him eagerly.

Several imperial doctors also looked at him expectantly, waiting for his answer.

They are good at treating diseases, but they really don't know much about poisons.

The leader of the guards also knew that the situation was urgent and did not dare to show off. He immediately told the news he asked about: "The assassin said that they tempered the poison of curare wood on the arrows."

Curare, also known as the blood-throated tree, can reach a height of 40 meters. It blooms in spring and summer and bears small pear-like red fruits in autumn, which turn purple-black when mature. This fruit is extremely bitter and poisonous and cannot be eaten, but its seeds and juice can be used as medicine. (Note: The description of curare wood is quoted from Baidu Encyclopedia.)

"It turns out to be the poison of curare wood!" Doctor Xu exclaimed after hearing the words of the leader of the guards.

Naturally, Imperial Physician Xu had heard of the poison of this curare tree and knew that it was very poisonous. The person who was poisoned would suffer from the poison within an hour and die.

He didn't expect that the poison in Jiang Wan's body was curare.

Although he had heard of the name, he had never seen it before.

The other imperial doctors also looked ugly, obviously they also knew how powerful the poison of this curare tree was.

"Now that we know the poison in Concubine Hui, why don't we quickly detoxify Concubine Hui!" Emperor Jiaqing looked at several imperial doctors displeased and ordered.

"Your Majesty, you don't know something. Although I have heard of this poison, I have never seen it. This poison is also known as blood sealing the throat. There is no antidote. The poisoned person will die within an hour. "Mr. Xu sighed, and then explained to Emperor Jiaqing.

"Concubine Hui has been poisoned for almost an hour. I'm afraid..." Dr. Xu was speechless, but everyone knew what he meant.

Jiang Wan was afraid that he would die from the poison soon.
