Chapter 317 Lying will turn red ears
"What does it look like?" Dong Yue seemed to be definitely related to this snake.
"This snake is not very long, about a meter or so. It has a triangular head, which can be clearly distinguished from the neck, and has long tube teeth."
Dong Yue's heart skipped a beat. Could it be a five-step snake? Seeing that Ye Qingfeng couldn't tell, she quickly asked, "Is it because the mouth is upturned, there is an oval cheek socket between the nostrils and eyes, and the scales at the end are more keratinized?" High, is it particularly hard?"
Ye Qingfeng nodded quickly, "Sister-in-law, have you seen this kind of snake?"
Dong Yue's heart sank, "I went to fief the land today, and someone was poisoned to death by this snake."
Ye Qingfeng and Xie Laogen felt cold in their hearts.
died!
It is a miracle that Ye Qingfeng is still alive.
Liu Sanqiang came with the medicine box, just in time to hear this, "Is what you said true?"
Dong Yue nodded, took the medicine box, and found out what was needed to treat Ye Qingfeng's wound.
The study was quiet, and no one spoke.
After Dong Yue finished treating the wound, her mind was much calmer.
"This kind of snake is called five-step snake. It generally lives in mountainous or hilly areas. Most of them live near streams in valleys. Occasionally, they also enter village houses in mountainous areas. They appear in kitchens and bedrooms. In hot weather, they enter rocks and grass beside streams in valleys. , spend the summer in the shade under the tree roots, and spend the winter in the rock crevices and soil caves on the sunny hillside.”
Several people have a certain understanding of snakes.
Liu Sanqiang asked anxiously, "Is the Major General okay?"
"He's fine." Dong Yue thought, if she found out about Lin Hongnian's condition earlier, maybe he could still be alive.
Appeared in two different places, it is impossible to be the same snake, it is definitely artificial, and it is a bit far-fetched.
Because there are mountains in the fief, a spring has just been opened recently, which is also in line with the living habits of the five-paced snake. As for whether it is artificial in the chrysanthemum garden, it needs to be further determined.
Liu Sanqiang also thought of this possibility and asked Xie Laogen to go to the teahouse.
There were only three people in the study room. Dong Yue took out the snake venom from the medicine box and gave it to Ye Qingfeng, "This medicine is for treating snake venom. You should take self-defense with you."
Ye Qingfeng held it in his hand and looked at the delicate little bottle in front of him.
Liu Sanqiang also had it, and he wasn't jealous, but seeing Ye Qingfeng's precious little bottle, he still felt a little uncomfortable.
Dong Yue didn't have such thoughts, she came to the table, picked up a pen and paper, and started to draw.
Liu Sanqiang came to the side of the woman and looked at the painting that appeared on the drawing. Is this the five-step snake?
I saw it myself in the backyard of the Fifth Prince’s Mansion yesterday. I was too angry at the time, and because I was worried about Dong Yue, I didn’t look carefully.
"It's this kind of snake." Ye Qingfeng came to him excitedly, and when he saw the snake, he immediately spoke out.
Dong Yue sent the finished painting to Ye Qingfeng, "Are you sure?"
"Ok."
"I've seen this kind of snake." Liu Sanqiang didn't want other men to get close to the woman, so he hurriedly said.
Dong Yue asked anxiously, "Where is it?"
"Five Princes' Mansion, but it seems to be." Just now, Liu Sanqiang thought of that scene, felt it was impossible, and believed that he was not dazzled.
"Like what?" Dong Yue and Ye Qingfeng asked at the same time.
Liu Sanqiang is not happy.
Looking at Ye Qingfeng, "Your snake venom has been cured, you go back and rest first, I will go to you if something happens." Liu Sanqiang said, pushing Ye Qingfeng into the secret passage.
Ye Qingfeng wanted to say something else. Seeing Liu Sanqiang like this, it's not good for him to insist on staying.
Dong Yue didn't say anything, she sat on Liu Sanqiang's chair with her feet raised on the table, and when Liu Sanqiang turned around, she saw Dong Yue like this.
It was a very inelegant movement, and he frowned slightly.
Everyone said that he had no rules, and this woman seemed to have no rules than herself.
Dong Yue smiled, "Tell me, what did you find?" Chasing Ye Qingfeng away, I'm afraid the man discovered something that Ye Qingfeng shouldn't know.
"No." Liu Sanqiang subconsciously shook his head.
Dong Yue retracted her legs, got up, and walked towards the door, looking at the man with a half-smile, "When you lie, your ears will turn red."
Liu Sanqiang touched his ears subconsciously.
Dong Yue opened the door and went out.
It was already dark outside, but at this moment, Dong Yue's heart was surprisingly calm.
As long as Lin Hongnian's death has nothing to do with her, the big rock she hangs in her heart will finally fall.
Backing back to the backyard, I saw Zuo Qing and Qing Lan anxiously walking up and down the yard, and seeing Dong Yue coming, they rushed over.
"Ma'am, are you okay?"
"Ma'am?"
Dong Yue saw that they were worried, "It's okay."
"Who is holding a medicine box?" Qing Lan asked.
Dong Yue originally wanted to say that Liu Sanqiang was injured, but when they saw Liu Sanqiang taking the medicine box, they thought for a while, "He is injured, let me treat him, and they must insist on not letting others into the bedroom."
Zuo Qing and Qing Lan didn't ask any more questions.
Soon Chen's mother came and asked when to eat.
"Send it to the backyard?"
"Send it to the general?"
"No, he is hungry and looks for food by himself."
Zuo Qing and Qing Lan snickered.
I didn’t believe what Madam said just now, but now I believe it.
The maids brought the food soon, Dong Yue washed up after eating, and let Zuo Qing and Qing Lan go down.
Dong Yue lay on the bed, thinking about what happened in the past few days.
Thinking of what Chen Ma said again, Dong Yue felt a little strange.
Think about it carefully, whether I am too sensitive today.
What happened to Liu Hongnian first, and now it's Mama Chen?
Thinking, Dong Yue also felt tired, turned over and soon fell asleep.
As for Liu Sanqiang, no surprises, he has a busy day tonight.
the next day.
Dong Yue woke up, and Liu Sanqiang went to morning exercises.
After eating, Dong Yue is going to visit the fiefdom.
Liu Hongnian was buried today, logically speaking, she should go there.
Just as he was about to leave, Liu Sanqiang came back from the outside.
Look at that complexion is not very good.
"Yue'er, you want to go out?" Liu Sanqiang saw the woman carrying something and asked.
"Yeah." Dong Yue didn't feel in a hurry, seeing that the man obviously had something to say.
"You wait, I'm with you."
"Okay." Dong Yue asked Zuo Qing and Qing Lan to put the things on the carriage first, and followed Liu Sanqiang to the backyard.
As soon as she entered, Dong Yue asked, "What's wrong?"
Liu Sanqiang sneered, "Someone insisted on looking at my wounds." Thinking of the speechless state of Hubu Shangshu, he suddenly felt amused.
"Who?" Dong Yue's thoughts that had been put down suddenly flashed into her mind again.
"Housebu Shangshu Hao Yingyi."
"It's him?" Dong Yue thought it was unlikely.
Liu Sanqiang took off his court clothes with a smile, saw the woman frowning, stepped forward and touched her, "He belongs to the Fifth Prince."
Dong Yue understood what was going on, and said, "I came back from the study yesterday. Zuo Qing and Qing Lan asked me why I was carrying the medicine box. I said you were injured. Not long after I said this, Chen Ma came."
When Liu Sanqiang heard this, the smile on his mouth changed slightly.
Looking at each other, the two of them had a general idea.
Not sure yet, but now that the scope has narrowed, it's in their favor.
Dong Yue thought for a while and said, "Lin Dazhuang's son was poisoned to death by a five-paced snake yesterday, and he will be buried today. I'll go and have a look."
"I'll go too." Liu Sanqiang quickly changed his clothes, took Dong Yue's hand and walked.
