Chapter 1977 Fruit
After saying that, she carefully pried open the fruit with her injured hand.
Everyone rushed forward.
I saw that after the black and green peel on the surface was broken open, what was exposed was not the walnut they thought, but a fruit with a very dark color and smooth skin.
Nan Yan frowned: "What is this?"
Aunt Tongyun also looked carefully for a long time, shook her head and said, "This is not a walnut. What kind of fruit is this?"
No one knew Ran Xiaoyu and the others around him.
Xue Yun said: "This thing is called Malizi."
"Ma Xiezi? What is this?"
"No wonder you don't know each other. This is a kind of fruit produced in the Western Regions. It produces very little. Because it is toxic, it is rare for everyone to see it."
"poison?!"
When everyone heard this word, they were shocked.
Ran Xiaoyu immediately said, "You mean, is the tree in our yard poisonous?"
Xue Yun hurriedly said, "Miss Xiaoyu, don't panic. That tree is a walnut tree, but this fruit is not a walnut, but a chestnut."
Everyone looked at each other.
Nanyan whispered: "You mean, someone throws the fruit of this poisonous chestnut under the walnut tree?"
"It seems like this now."
Nan Yan thought for a while and said, "Take it to me and take a look."
Aunt Tongyun immediately stopped her: "Empress, this is poisonous!"
Nan Yan looked at Xue Yun again, and Xue Yun said, "I didn't explain it clearly just now. This kind of fruit contains trace amounts of toxicity and does not die. It makes people mentally paralyzed and will also cause symptoms of nausea and vomiting."
Nan Yan said: "How did you know?"
Xue Yun smiled and said, "The Xue family is engaged in medicinal materials business in Bailong City and has a lot of contacts with countries in the Western Regions. Our family also has these things."
"This can also be used as medicine?"
"Of course, any poison, if properly prepared, can be used as medicine."
She said, her eyes flashing at Nanyan.
Nan Yan immediately understood the meaning of her words, just like the marrow marrow they asked her before, which was also toxic, but it was also the antidote to save Ye Zheng.
Aunt Tongyun also said, "That's true, medicine and drug are not separated."
Xue Yun said again: "Our family punishes the servants, and they usually don't beat them. Just let the servants eat these numb chestnuts, eat one or two, keep the nausea and vomit for one or two days. It tastes even more uncomfortable than being beaten."
"oh?"
"So, the servants were punished once and were well-behaved, which was better than being injured after being beaten."
Nan Yan raised his eyebrows slightly.
He looked at the fruit in her hand again and said, "But I didn't eat this thing either?"
Xue Yun said: "It may not be necessary to eat it."
"oh?"
"After the Empress becomes pregnant, her physical condition will be weaker than that of ordinary people, and pregnant women will be more sensitive to smell and taste, so"
"So, I have actually smelled this smell, but I just can't feel it, so I'm affected?"
"good."
Xue Yun nodded and said, "Also, I just checked it carefully. There are several under the tree over there. These chestnuts are very similar to walnut fruits. They can hardly tell when they are mixed together, and their taste is also very light. In addition, this thing is not common in the Central Plains, so no one around the Empress can recognize it."
Nanyan was silent for a while.
Then he slowly said: "It seems that those who threw this thing here also have some understanding of the people around me."
