675. Heartbreak

Frightened by a poisonous snake, Yao Keqing had nightmares all night, and when he woke up the next morning, his face was pale and his expression was sad.

Song Ziqing touched her slightly blue eyes distressedly, "You sleep a little longer!"

Yao Keqing yawned, sat up and said in a muffled voice, "It's a nightmare when you fall asleep, it's better to be awake, so as not to be scared again in your dream!"

Song Ziqing sighed slightly, "Call the imperial doctor to prescribe a medicine that calms the nerves!"

Yao Keqing nodded, did not refuse, was about to say something, couldn't help but yawn again, bursting with tears rippling with water, Song Ziqing wiped her with his hand, and admonished, "After a while, the imperial doctor will prescribe medicine and eat it immediately, eat well and sleep well, nourish your mind, and don't do anything else!"

Yao Keqing nodded, bent down to lift her shoes, Song Ziqing squatted down early in the morning to help her put on her shoes, and helped her to wash, but Yao Keqing glanced at her and pushed her away, "It's just that I haven't slept enough, so I don't need to be so careful!"

Song Ziqing took the opportunity to hold Yao Keqing's hand, "I just want to see you more, and I can't bear to give you a second glance!"

Yao Keqing flew two pieces of red glow on his face, dyeing his pale face a little color, and asked someone to bring washing water, but Song Ziqing didn't speak, only looked at her with a smile.

After breakfast, the imperial doctor came over and prescribed a decoction to calm the nerves, and Song Ziqing watched Yao Keqing drink and fall asleep before leaving.

After Song Ziqing came out of the eldest princess's mansion, he went straight to the Hou Mansion in Changxiang, Jingzhao Shaoyin was already waiting at the side door of the Hou Mansion, and when he saw Song Ziqing coming, he stepped forward to greet him attentively, "General Song came at the right time, and the lower officials have just arrived, so let's go in!"

Song Ziqing bowed his head, Jingzhao Shaoyin turned sideways and asked Song Ziqing to step forward, Song Ziqing asked as he walked, "Have you found out the origin of the poisonous snake?"

Jing Zhao Shao Yin sneered, "For the time being, there are no eyebrows! The capital is so big, isn't it easy to hide a few snakes? I'm afraid it will take a few days!"

Song Zi said lightly, "What the adults said is reasonable!"

The voice could not hear joy and anger, Shao Yin was worried in his heart, looked at Song Ziqing's face, and asked cautiously, "What is the matter with General Song calling the lower officials today?"

"I've found some clues about the origin of the poisonous snake!"

"Oh?" Shao Yin said in surprise, "What clues? Can you tell Xia Guan Yi or Er?"

Although Song Ziqing only said that he had found some clues, since he dared to say so, it meant that he was at least ninety percent sure, Shao Yin was surprised in his heart, but he also admired Song Ziqing's thunderous speed very much.

"When I see Lord Yao, I will naturally know!"

Shao Yin was even more surprised in his heart, but he still couldn't think of a clue, and when he saw that Song Ziqing had gone away, he hurriedly followed.

When they arrived at Yao Chongming's study, the three of them sat down separately after seeing each other, Yao Chongming looked at Song Ziqing with a weak face, but because of the presence of Jingzhao Shaoyin, an outsider, it was not good to show that he was too close, so he had to show the politeness of the master's house, "Please drink tea, if you have anything to say, you can moisten your throat!"

Song Ziqing didn't touch the teacup in his hand, "Yesterday, Neiko was attacked by a poisonous snake after being splashed with tea, so it's better not to drink this tea casually!"

"Poof~" Jingzhao Shaoyin couldn't help but squirt out the tea that he had just drunk in his mouth.

"Offended, offended!" Shao Yin put down the teacup in embarrassment, wiped the water stains on his body with his sleeve, but never touched the cup of tea again.

Yao Chongming smiled even more embarrassedly, "The words of the virtuous son-in-law are serious! This tea is a good pre-rain dragon well, there is absolutely no problem!"

Seeing that the atmosphere was awkward, Shao Yin said, "Didn't General Song just say that there was a clue about poisonous snakes?"

Song Ziqing said slowly, "The juggling street in the west of the city has gathered a lot of people from the rivers and lakes who sell their arts, and a group of them make a living by playing snakes, they live with snakes day and night, they are familiar with the types and habits of snakes, and they are even more proficient in catching and feeding snakes! After the accident yesterday, I immediately asked people to go to the west of the city to check on these snake charmers, and sure enough, I asked someone who bought snakes from him the day before yesterday, and they were poisonous snakes! The number and variety are just the same as those found in the secluded pavilion yesterday!"

Shao Yin said happily, "So where did yesterday's poisonous snake come from?"

Yao Chongming was more concerned about where the snake went, "Who bought the poisonous snake?"

"It's a woman who looks like a maid!" Song Ziqing took out a portrait.

Yao Chongming glanced at it and frowned, "I've never seen this person in the mansion!"

"Of course Master Hou hasn't seen it!" Song Ziqing snorted, "Because this girl was just bought by a lady surnamed Tang from Ya Po in the house, this lady surnamed Tang found several tooth shops, just to buy a maid who is not afraid of snakes, and Mrs. Tang also brought the receipt of the maid in the tooth shop, not a lie!"

Tang thought that if he killed that girl, he would never be able to find her again, but he didn't know that the girl's death confirmed her crime even more.

Yao Chongming knew that the evidence brought by Song Ziqing was true, so he didn't dare to pick it up, Jingzhao Shaoyin took it and saw that it was true, and immediately asked sternly, "Where is this Tang clan now?"

Yao Chongming was a little embarrassed, "This ...... This Lady of the Tang Clan ...... It's crazy!"

The tranquilizer prescribed by the doctor was really effective, Yao Keqing slept dreamless all night until the afternoon before waking up, and suddenly felt in good spirits, although he missed the time for lunch, but he didn't feel very hungry, so he simply stopped eating, only ate two snacks and went to the study to read.

After only turning a few pages, Mama Fang came in with a stern expression, "Young grandma, something happened!"

Yao Keqing closed the book, and saw that Mama Fang's expression was as serious as she had never seen before, and Yao Keqing couldn't help but become serious, "What's wrong?"

Mama Fang took a few steps forward and got closer to Yao Keqing before she whispered, "The patriarch's wife is crazy!"

"What?"

Down crazy?

The book in Yao Keqing's hand fell on the table with a "snap", "What's going on?"

Yesterday, the Tang clan was still majesticly provoking himself, and even murdered himself with poisonous snakes, so why did he suddenly go crazy?

Mama Fang shook her head, "This old slave doesn't know, this is the news sent by Madame in the morning! There is also a letter to the young grandmother!"

Yao Keqing opened the letter and found out how the Tang family was crazy.

Zhu said in the letter that yesterday for Yao Qichen's marriage, the house was already very busy, and later it was a poisonous snake, and it was a life lawsuit, and the family was even more chaotic, and the manpower transferred everywhere was sent to a new errand before they returned to their positions, so that the courtyard where the Tang family lived did not have a servant to serve, and only a rough mother-in-law was left to guard the door.

Somehow, there was a fire in the house suddenly, and after the rough mother-in-law called someone to put out the fire, he rescued Tang who was trapped in the house, but after being rescued, Tang was hysterical and crazy, and only after seeing the doctor did he know that Tang was crazy.

It's just that Yao Keqing still thinks that the Tang clan is crazy, since the Tang clan can give birth to a method of killing people with poisonous snakes, how can he be the kind of person who will be scared crazy by just walking in the water? Thinking that Song Ziqing also went to the Changxiang Hou Mansion today, he should know, Yao Keqing didn't think much about it, just waited for Song Ziqing to come back and ask him.
