Chapter 439: Liang Yitan's cause of death

The black pot is backed, but it can't be memorized all the time. Pen & Fun & Pavilion www.biquge.info Yang Huairen didn't think that if another Song-Xia war broke out, he would definitely not be able to escape the involvement, if the Great Song Dynasty army and people suffered heavy losses, his life would not be saved even by Zhao Xu and Zhao Hao, and Empress Dowager Gao, he had no hope at all.

Therefore, the top priority is to find out the cause of Liang Yitan's death. But when Yang Huairen went to Liang Yitan's residence in Tongyuan County, it was already too late.

Liang Yitan has a special status, and his subordinates have already put his body in the coffin, and when it is dawn, he will be transported back to Xingqing Mansion in Western Xia.

If you want to do an autopsy again, it is impossible, those Xixia people only think that Yang Huairen poisoned their son-in-law, and their eyes staring at Yang Huairen are also full of hatred, if it were not for the hundreds of officers and soldiers of the Tongyuan County Patrol Battalion protecting Yang Huairen, I am afraid that they will be eaten alive.

In this way, Yang Huairen would not be able to come forward with some things, so he had to ask Song Tingyu, the commander of Tongyuan County, to replace him and ask Liang Yitan's subordinates about Liang Yitan's whereabouts after he left the Western Regions Building last night.

Liang Yitan's subordinates did not hide this point, but Liang Yitan was a little depressed after leaving the Western Regions Building, and did not go anywhere else, but went directly back to his warehouse in Tongyuan County.

After that, he scolded those subordinates who were beaten all over the ground and looked for teeth, and drank for a while, and then his mood gradually improved, and he went crazy for a while, and tossed until midnight before he was ready to sleep.

Liang Yitan has a habit of drinking a sip of tea before going to bed, no matter how late it is. His maid was also accustomed to waiting until he was about to fall asleep, making him a pot of tea, and waiting for him to drink before leaving.

And the little maid who was waiting for Liang Yitan to drink tea before going to bed last night found him drunk and lying on the bed, thinking that he might not drink tea if he was drunk today, but he hesitated and approached his bedside to take a look, only to find that Liang Yitan was out of breath at that time.

It was precisely because of Liang Yitan's sudden death that it caused a big panic in his inn and attracted the attention of the soldiers of the patrol battalion.

When the sky was slightly bright, Liang Yitan's men prepared to transport the coffin containing the corpse out of the city. This Tong Guan didn't dare to stop it, since the news of Liang Yitan's death would definitely not be hidden, then there was no need to prevent his subordinates from transporting his body back to Western Xia, causing more unnecessary misunderstandings and troubles.

The Xixia people only cared about transporting the coffin in a hurry, and they didn't care about the investigation of the Tongyuan County Order, and let them check it in the warehouse, anyway, when Yang Huairen poisoned Liang Yitan last night, many people knew that the murderer had been decided, and they could check it as they liked.

In fact, most of the small workers working in the warehouse are Song people, and they are also quite cooperative with the government's inquiries, but the clues they can provide are too few, and it is better than nothing.

There was only one extremely strange clue from the maid who made tea, that is, when Liang Yitan died, he had a smile on his face, and it seemed that he was still happy when he died, and he didn't receive much pain.

This is something that no one can figure out. It is said that Liang Yitan failed to tease the daughter of the shopkeeper of the Western Regions Building last night, and later his subordinates were beaten by Tianba's younger brother, and he himself was fooled by Yang Huairen, thinking that he had been hit by a poisonous Gu of seven insects, and he should be extremely depressed.

Judging from his performance after returning home, it also proves this, Liang Yitan scolded a group of beaten subordinates who accompanied him, and then drank alone in depression, and finally went back to his room to rest, all of which seemed to be in line with his mood at the time.

But after getting drunk, he was stupid and happy for a while, so what's going on? It is said that a glass of good wine relieves a thousand sorrows, but it is also said that it is even more sorrowful to use wine to eliminate sorrows, even if this kid has a big heart, he will not get drunk and get carried away, and completely forget about the fact that he was poisoned, right?

Well, even if he is mentally abnormal and forgets everything with a little drink, what about getting drunk and dying in his bed with a satisfied smile on his face? This doesn't make sense, can it still be laughed to death? How heartless is this?

In accordance with the method taught to them by Yang Huairen, the officials of Tongyuan County searched for many utensils in Liang Yitan's room and returned them for Yang Huairen to inspect, including his clothes, the food he had eaten yesterday, the remnants of wine in the wine jug, and the wine glasses and tea bowls that had been used for drinking and tea.

Sure enough, the hard work paid off, and Yang Huairen discovered something. When it comes to forensic objects, Yang Huairen is not a professional, and his knowledge in this area is just watching some TV series about forensics and forensics in later generations, and learning a little bit of forensic common sense from the TV series.

But as a genius cook, he is different from ordinary people in one thing, he has a superhuman keen sense of smell and taste. In Yang Huairen's view, Liang Yitan's death, if there were no obvious injuries, it was because of poisoning.

He can also guess what the level of Tongyuan County is, and judge whether the deceased is poisoned, their only way is to use a silver needle to probe the throat and prick the abdomen, and judge whether the deceased died of poisoning from whether the silver needle turns black.

However, this method can only find out whether the deceased was poisoned by impure arsenic, and many other toxic substances cannot be detected at all, so Yang Huairen decided to start with the food and drinks that Liang Yitan ate before his death.

There was still something left over from what he had eaten before he died, Yang Huairen sniffed it realistically, felt that there was nothing abnormal, and then ordered someone to catch some mice, feed them these foods, and observe the reactions of the mice.

At the same time, he also used a similar method to identify the wine, tea, and other things that Liang Yitan had eaten or drunk the day before his death.

Judging from Liang Yitan's reaction before his death, this poison should have been poisoned very quickly, and it should not have taken more than two hours, that is to say, when he was in the Western Regions Building last night, there was no sign of poisoning, and the time point of his poisoning should be after leaving the Western Regions Building.

Since he was poisoned when he got home, the food and the tea that he hadn't had time to drink were not very suspicious. The results of the rat test also proved this, but at the same time, it also proved that the wine he had drunk was also fine.

Just when he verified that all the food and drinks that Liang Yitan had eaten before his death were fine, Yang Huairen discovered the breakthrough point, which was the wine glass that Liang Yitan used to drink.

There is no problem with the wine in the wine jug, but it does not mean that there is no problem with the wine utensils he used to drink, Yang Huairen put the wine glass he used to drink under his nose and sniffed it carefully, and smelled a special smell that had not been seen for a long time.
