Chapter 551 Find the cause of death
Master Fu took a piece of paper and a pen.

Every time he typed a paragraph, he stopped and recorded a number on the paper.

Tang Nineteen looked at it for a while, and saw the way.

The numbers recorded by Mr. Fu are exactly the same as the handwritten lowercase numbers recorded in the red box on the right side of the ledger page.

Master Fu continued to rattle, and dropped a few more numbers, each of which matched the lower case numbers on the ledger.

Flying with his fingertips, he finally finished counting the last lowercase number written in the account book, but he did not put down the abacus. With a crackling sound, he put the abacus on the table: "Sure enough."

"Five thousand 210 nine, the numbers on the two abacus are actually the same." Tang Nineteen also found out.

Lord Fu pointed to the blank column under the row of lowercase numbers on the account book: "Princess, this number should have been filled in here."

Tang Nineteen seemed to understand something: "I've already figured it out, but I don't even have time to fill it in. Could something happen to her after the number is calculated?"

"It should be so."

"It doesn't take much time to record this number. What is the reason why she didn't have time to write down this number? Or, is there no way to write down this number?"

As Tang Shijiu spoke, he began to check around the table without missing a single word.

It is very likely that the place where the third wife was killed was this table.

Master Fu also looked around carefully.

Soon, the two discovered something strange at the same time.

"Master Fu, you saw that the black lacquered chair was covered with water stains."

The black paint, it is easy to see the traces of water stains, it is on the back of the chair, along the top of the back of the chair, four or five stripes, spread down about a palm high, and then paste into a piece, and then go down, there is no water stained.

Master Fu compared the water stains, and raised his hand: "I see, the lines and direction of the water stains should have dripped from this position, and there is a barrier here, so the water stains did not continue to spread to Instead, it is smudged here, and it becomes a paste."

Tang Nineteen suddenly thought of something: "Master Fu, I'll sit down, come and take a look."

Tang Nineteen pulled out the chair, sat down carefully, and slowly leaned towards his back.

A miraculous thing happened, the place where the water stain was finally smeared happened to be her shoulder.

"Princess." Lord Fu's tone suddenly became agitated, "Your Majesty may know the cause of the third lady's death."

Tang Nineteen already had a bold hypothesis in mind: "Master Fu, tell me, let me see if it's what I think."

"Wangfei, have you ever heard that there is a kind of torture called "Tiejiaguan?"

"Although I have never heard of this name, I understand what you mean, so you continue."

"Tiejiaguan was established during the time of Taizu. It is mainly used to extract confessions by torture. The criminal staff lifted up a prepared mulberry paper and covered the prisoner's face. With a burning knife in his mouth, he sprayed it vigorously. , a fine mist was sprayed, the mulberry paper was damp and softened, and it was immediately stuck to the face. The criminals then covered the second sheet and did the same thing. If the criminal confesses during this period, he can kick his legs to express it. If he does not confess, he usually covers it until the second sheet. When there are five pieces of mulberry paper, the person will not move. This kind of punishment is not like beating people will leave traces. After death, five pieces of mulberry paper are stacked together, dried and uncovered. Mask, so it is called Tiejiaguan.”

Tang Nineteen nodded: "It seems that we have thought about it together. I still have a bold guess. Even though this sticker will not cause any traces of suffocation on the face, the deceased will definitely struggle during the death process. There is no trace of binding on the third lady's body, and there is no trace of struggle in the room, and what we saw just now, the number on the abacus is not enough to fill in, it is very likely that she was fainted before she was killed."
