The coroner and the concubine doctor pursue the murderer in the Dali Temple

Chapter 520 Finding the Gu

As soon as Chu Yunxi got off the carriage, she ran towards the morgue. All the detectives she met stopped to look at her, thinking that something had happened. How could the princess run so fast with such a big belly?

Chu Yuanxi followed behind and shouted, "Yunxi, slow down, the body won't run away."

The detectives then realized that the princess was in a hurry to perform an autopsy. Many people couldn't help but think at the same time that the princess was so dedicated.

Chu Yunxi ran to the door of the morgue and stopped. After thinking for a while, she turned around and almost bumped into Chu Yuanxi who was running after her. Chu Yuanxi braked suddenly, exhaled, frowned and said, "Don't you know you are a pregnant woman? Can't you walk slowly?"

Chu Yunxi's heartbeat was indeed a little fast, but she still smiled and said, "Brother, just wait for me here. It's not very nice inside, so I don't recommend you to go in with me. Bai Yu can go in with me."

Bai Yu immediately jumped down from the tree and nodded seriously. It was indeed not a good look, but he got used to it.

It was the first time for Chu Yuanxi to work with Chu Yunxi, but people who came back from the battlefield always had great confidence, that is, I have seen many corpses, what is there to be afraid of?

So Chu Yuanxi said, "Since I'm here, let's go in together and see if there's anything I can do to help you. What's the point of standing outside the door?"

Bai Yu believed that they were all brothers who had returned from the battlefield, and sincerely advised, "General Chu, it's better not to go in. It's really not a good look."

It would have been better if he didn't say anything. After he said that, Chu Yuanxi's competitive spirit was aroused. "What's so bad about it? It's just a corpse, right? You, Bai Yu, can see it, but I can't?"

As he said that, he pushed the door open and walked in first. Chu Yunxi and Bai Yu looked at each other and saw helplessness in each other's eyes. There was nothing they could do. They had tried their best.

As soon as she stood next to the corpse, Chu Yunxi immediately entered working mode. This time, she only lifted up the head of Li Ruixian's body, revealing his cleanly shaved head. The smell rushed straight into her nose. Although the three of them were wearing masks, only Chu Yunxi remained calm. Bai Yu just frowned, but Chu Yuanxi felt nauseous, but he held it back when he thought of what he had just said.

Chu Yunxi stretched out her hand and said to Bai Yu, "Knife."

Bai Yu handed over a surgical knife. This was Chu Yunxi's special knife. She had been used to using the scalpel over the years. Whether it was for dissecting corpses or for opening the skull at this moment, this scalpel was sharp and handy enough.

Taking a deep breath, Chu Yunxi cut open the corpse's head.

When the head was first opened, Chu Yuanxi could still bear it, but he already regretted his impulsiveness. When Bai Yu held the lamp and approached the head of the corpse, and Chu Yunxi was searching inside with a scalpel, the brain marrow and other things hit Chu Yuanxi's eyeballs. He really couldn't bear it anymore, so he turned around and pushed the door to go out. Soon, the sound of vomiting was heard from outside.

Chu Yunxi shook her head. This was expected. Bai Yu was also inexplicably happy. It seemed that his performance when he first came here was not shameful. Everyone was the same.

After searching for nearly an hour, Chu Yunxi finally used tweezers to pick out a tiny poisonous insect and placed it on a plate beside her. She finally breathed a sigh of relief, as she had finally found out the real cause of Li Ruixian's death.

After leaving the morgue, Chu Yuanxi sat in the yard, his face not looking very good. Chu Yunxi washed her hands and walked over, patting his shoulder, "Brother, people who watch an autopsy for the first time are basically like this. Bai Yu vomited more than you before, don't take it to heart."

Bai Yu was speechless. Couldn't the princess give him some face?

Chu Yuanxi looked up at Chu Yunxi with an ambiguous look in his eyes, "Little sister, you are the daughter of the Marquis of Loyalty and Bravery, and later the princess of the Dingbei Palace. Why do you want to learn to be a coroner? This..." He pointed to the morgue behind him, "How can a girl do this?"

Chu Yunxi sat down opposite him. Chu Yuanxi's reaction was within her expectations. No matter in which era, whether it was coroner or forensic doctor, this job had always been accompanied by controversy. People needed such people, but they did not want the people around them to do this job. This was the same as working in a funeral home, which would be considered unlucky by secular people.

"Brother, work should not be divided by gender, and occupations should not be divided by nobility. Yes, I am the daughter of the Loyal and Brave Marquis's Mansion and the princess of the Dingbei Palace, but so what? Why do I always have to rely on such an identity to live? I can use my hands to speak for the dead and seek justice for the deceased. I feel very happy. I like my job. Is there anything wrong with that?"

"Yes, but..."

"That's good, big brother. The prince is the Supreme Court Justice, and I'm a coroner. I can help him. The prince has never looked down on me just because I'm a coroner. Moreover, if you just let me be a canary in the Dingbei Palace, trapped in the backyard every day, it would be more painful than killing me. What I'm doing is helping people and accumulating merit. Can you support me?"

Chu Yuanxi was completely defeated. He knew that he could never win the argument with his younger sister. He just felt sorry for her. She often worked in such an environment, smelling the pungent smell and enduring the nausea that ordinary people could not bear, just to find out the truth. Although what she did was great, it was really too hard.

"Okay, as long as you like it, big brother will definitely support you, and the whole family will support you, after all, you are our little sister." Chu Yuanxi finally smiled.

Chu Yunxi also smiled, stood up and hugged Chu Yuanxi's neck, and said coquettishly: "I know that big brother is the best."

Chu Yuanxi said with a fierce look, "Stop flattering me. You stink. Go back and take a shower."

Chu Yunxi stuck out her tongue and ran away holding up the hem of her skirt.

Chu Yuanxi shook his head. Little sister, when will she be more steady?

As soon as Chu Yunxi returned to the palace, she saw Hei Mu, who was sweating profusely from practicing martial arts, and Xiao Mubei, who was sitting nearby and leisurely eating cakes.

She walked to Xiao Mubei in surprise, pointed at Hei Mu, and said, "Is Hei Mu so diligent? Why is he practicing martial arts in the middle of the night instead of taking a rest?"

Seeing her, Xiao Mubei's unhappy mood finally calmed down a little, and he said, "Hei Mu felt that he was not diligent enough, so he insisted on practicing martial arts overtime and asked me to supervise him. Well, I have no choice but to sit here and watch him practice."

Chu Yunxi asked suspiciously: "Really?"

Xiao Mubei motioned Hei Mu to stop and asked, "Hei Mu, answer the princess' question."

Hei Mu said with a bitter face: "Princess, it is indeed my subordinate who wants to practice. The prince has definitely not forced me to practice."

Chu Yunxi suppressed her laughter and said, "Have you practiced enough? If you have, let's go. I'm tired and want to rest."

Hei Mu immediately disappeared.
