"Tsk tsk tsk, how heartless! I rushed all the way here from the capital to ask Divine Doctor Jiang to treat your legs, and not only did you damage my clothes, you didn't even invite me to your house for a visit." Xu Zimo's eyes rolled and he said with a smile, "Jing Heng, I haven't seen my aunt for a long time and I miss her very much. Why don't I go with you to visit her today? I just got two baskets of good things." He sent the servant to call Qian Niang.

Qian Niang walked in gracefully, holding strawberries. When she saw that the person her master was entertaining was actually He Jingheng, her face froze for a moment.

"Jing Heng, this is it! Do you know what this is called? I haven't even seen it before. You, a rough guy who spends all day in the military camp, must have never heard of it. This is called..."

"Strawberry." He Jingheng interrupted him before he could finish.

"H-how do you know?"

At this time, Qian Niang smiled awkwardly: "Master, this strawberry was really sent by the Crown Prince's Consort."

what?

Xu Zimo looked at He Jingheng in shock. That beautiful woman turned out to be Shangnian’s concubine’s daughter?

What kind of luck does He Jingheng have?

"My mother eats these strawberries every day, so you don't have to worry about them." After saying that, he left with Yuntian.

He really wanted to know how this little woman determined that Heningan did not die from falling off the cliff.

At this time, Shang Ruoyi was standing in front of County Magistrate Zhang.

"Really?" Magistrate Zhang's expression was cold, and his scrutinizing eyes fell on the coroner who was wiping his sweat next to him: "What do you say?"

"My Lord, the wound on the deceased's head was most likely caused by falling off the cliff."

"Indeed, it is normal to get a head injury after falling from such a high place." County Magistrate Zhang nodded after hearing this.

"Where are the corpse spots?" Shang Ruoyi looked at the coroner with a cold gaze and said, "Wounds can lie, but corpse spots can't."

"Corpse... Livorno spot..." The coroner hesitated for a long time and couldn't make out a clear answer.

"The livor mortis on the body is concentrated on the back, which means that the deceased was lying on his back when he died. In addition, the weather is cold now, and once the livor mortis is formed, it is difficult to move or fade." She said in a cold voice: "When the body was found, it was lying on the ground. If, as you said, he fell to death, then the livor mortis should be concentrated in front of the body."

She said coldly: "Could it be that he turned himself over again after being dead for a long time?"

The coroner was speechless and trembling all over.

Upon hearing this, Magistrate Zhang shouted angrily, "How dare you! How dare you deceive me!"

The coroner fell to his knees with a thud, "Your Excellency, I am innocent! I was not thinking straight today and was careless for a moment. Please give me a chance!"

Magistrate Zhang snorted coldly: "No need. Since the cause of death has been found, there is no need to trouble the coroner to check again. However, I have many questions and I hope you can answer them." After he finished speaking, two officers stepped forward and dragged him away.

"Please spare my life, sir! I am innocent! Sir! Please look carefully!"

The coroner was dragged away, and Magistrate Zhang smiled and bowed to Shang Ruoyi, saying, "Thank you, madam."

lady?

This title made her feel a little uncomfortable for a while.

"You don't have to be polite, sir. Just call me Shang Ruoyi."

Magistrate Zhang smiled and said, "I didn't expect you to know something about autopsies." How could this be the extremely timid and weak lady that the prince mentioned? Did the prince have a problem with his eyes? Or... He couldn't help but have a bold guess. Could it be that the lady that the prince mentioned was not the one in front of him?

hiss······

"I just like reading some books on this subject, but I didn't expect to use them actually." Shang Ruoyi laughed. It was just an autopsy. As an agent, she not only had to learn how to kill, but also had to learn to understand different ways of dying. For this reason, she even took further anatomy courses and became the most proud disciple of the anatomy professor.

"If it's true as you said, that He Ningan was thrown down, then this matter will be troublesome."

Just then, a servant came over and whispered something in his ear, and County Magistrate Zhang's face suddenly turned dark.

Shang Ruoyi saw this and said tactfully, "Since you are busy, I will take my leave."

After she left, County Magistrate Zhang asked coldly, "What's going on?"

"I don't know either. On the way to escort him back, I found that he suddenly died."

At this point, even a fool would know there must be some conspiracy: "Investigate! Investigate for me!"

When Shang Ruoyi returned home, He Jingheng had already returned. Qin was wiping tears beside her, and He Jingheng's eyes were full of helplessness.

"Look at you. You're so old, but you don't even tell your family when you go out? Do you know how worried your mother is?"

"Mom, I'm twenty, not twelve. What are you worried about?" He Jingheng was really annoyed: "Besides, I was already leading troops to fight when I was twelve, and I never saw you cry like this."

Qin was choked by his words. Seeing this, He Yunyi stepped forward and whispered, "Mother is actually worried that you killed my second uncle."

He Jingheng: “…”

Seeing her brother's face darken, He Yunyi immediately said, "Brother, don't be angry." At this time, she saw Shang Ruoyi walk into the main hall out of the corner of her eye, and she breathed a sigh of relief. Her savior had come, and with her sister-in-law around, her brother would definitely not be angry.

"Sister-in-law, you're back."

Shang Ruoyi nodded and said to the old princess: "Grandma, that man is undoubtedly my second uncle."

The old princess sighed and said nothing.

He Zhiyuan sighed, "I didn't expect that my second brother would die like this."

Just then, a maid came in and whispered, "Madam, Master Jinghe has woken up."

"I see." The old princess stood up with the help of Aunt Li: "I'll go and take a look."

Shang Ruoyi narrowed her eyes slightly, Young Master Jinghe?

He Yunyi knew what she was thinking and whispered, "After seeing He Jinghe like that, grandma, for some reason, wanted to keep him in the mansion."

"Grandma said so?"

He Yunyi curled her lips and said, "I've heard from the elders in the mansion before that He Jinghe is the child who looks most like his grandfather. I think it's because of this that even though he has such a background, grandma still can't bear it!"

A hint of coldness appeared in Shang Ruoyi's eyes. Want to stay? Dream on!

"Since he's awake, I'll go and take a look and see if there's anything I can do to help." Shang Ruoyi asked Yingxue to get her medicine box. She wanted to see what He Jinghe was up to.

"I'll go too!" He Yunyi is now like her little follower, and she wishes she could follow her twelve hours a day.

When Shang Ruoyi arrived at He Jinghe's residence, she heard him crying softly: "Grandma, my father died so tragically!"

A grown man crying like a fool.

"Madam, the young lady and the young lady are here." Aunt Li said softly.

young lady?

Shang Ruoyi?

Upon hearing this, He Jinghe's eyes rolled back and he fainted.
