Li Hongyuan didn't feel like eating, holding a cup of clear tea, and looking at documents.
It's almost autumn, and the south is rainy. The Emperor Father asked him to manage the flood control issue, which is very important.
Five or six staff members finished a plate of snacks.
There wasn't much to begin with.
They ate, and then trouble began.
In just a moment, several staff members felt stomachaches and couldn't hold it in; they all had to go to the toilet.
One or two might be fine, but all six members having this problem - that was strange.
Li Hongyuan waved his hand to dismiss them, and his gaze fell on the plate of snacks.
Only some residue was left.
Some staff members had diarrhoea for the entire day.
After the doctor came, he said they had ingested a large dose of Croton mixed with laxatives.
The staff members were drained.
