The mind-reading coroner drove the court crazy

Within the time it took to stick up an incense stick, most people had taken their seats, leaving only the throne and the empress's seat high above, and three empty seats next to them. Those should be the seats for the Regent of Yanhuang Kingdom, the Regent's Consort, and the Second Prince.

Suddenly, there was a cry of surprise outside the hall, and the second prince was escorted in, looking unattainable.

Occasionally, they could hear the young ladies and ladies praising him: The second prince of the Yanhuang Kingdom is indeed very handsome.

Lu Shiya was quite nice and couldn't help but curl her lips. "Just that weak and fragile thing, who would be so blind as to fancy such a thing?"

Her voice was neither too loud nor too soft, but just loud enough for the people around her to hear clearly. Suddenly, the surrounding tables fell silent as chickens, and no more disgusting compliments came out.

Qin Miaoxi looked behind him and asked, "The Regent and the Princess didn't come?"

Lu Shiya was silent, her eyes darkened. Suddenly, she saw the arrogant Second Prince walk up to their table. He smiled at them and said, "Coroner Qin, long time no see!"

Qin Miaoxi didn't look at him indifferently, but was busy tasting the tea brought by the palace maid.

Even though he was not given face, the Second Prince did not get angry. Instead, his smile grew wider. "This prince will not disturb Qin the Coroner while he is having tea. We will have plenty of time to get along and get to know each other in the future."

After watching him swagger away, Lu Shiya poked the person next to her suspiciously, "Are you familiar with him?"

"I'm not familiar with him, but he must be mentally ill." Qin Miaoxi didn't take his words to heart. This person couldn't stay in Jingzhao for too long. After choosing the noble lady, he would return to Yanhuang Country.

At this moment, the eunuch's shrill voice resounded throughout the hall.

"The Emperor and Empress have arrived!"

All the officials knelt down immediately, except for the two people sitting at the table with Qin Miaoxi, who stood straight. One of them had military merits and did not need to kneel, and the other was exempted from the kneeling ceremony because her husband's family had contributed to the national treasury.

Qin Miaoxi lowered her head, but felt a sharp gaze sweeping over her. It was the gaze of the emperor.

Soon the emperor and the empress walked onto the platform surrounded by the crowd. He waved to everyone, and they dared to take their seats.

The Emperor glanced at the empty seats of the Regent and his wife and said to everyone, "The Regent has just arrived in Jingzhao. Since the Second Prince has come to Longyuan Kingdom to choose a princess, why don't you ladies perform for the Second Prince so that he can understand."

The Queen and her husband followed suit, saying, "Yes! I wonder which young lady would like to perform?"

Soon, several talented young ladies in Jingzhao came forward to show off their talents, some dancing, some playing the piano, each displaying their talents.

The second prince's eyes casually passed over several people and soon fell on one place, but he saw that the woman had no intention of going on stage to perform. She was eating and drinking happily.

His eyes darkened, and he suddenly stood up and walked before the emperor, bowing and saying, "Your Majesty, I do have someone I like, and I beg Your Majesty to grant me marriage."

The emperor immediately became interested, "Which noble lady does the Second Prince have his eyes on?"

The Second Prince said calmly, "I want to marry Qin Gu, the official from the Jingzhao Yin Yamen, as my princess consort."

Silence, deathly silence.

The emperor also looked puzzled, "Second Prince, I didn't hear you clearly just now. Who are you talking about?"

"Qin, the coroner from the Jingzhao Yin Yamen."

Qin Miaoxi: “???”

This narcissistic idiot seems to be talking about himself?

The Second Prince looked at the Emperor suspiciously and asked bluntly, "Your Majesty, you think that a coroner like her is not worthy of me, but she once saved my life. We in the Yanhuang Kingdom are grateful and repay kindness. I will not despise her humble status. Please grant us marriage."

"Cough cough!"

Suddenly, a rapid cough was heard from below, and soon an official apologized, "I have been disrespectful in front of the palace. I beg Your Majesty to forgive me."

The emperor rubbed his eyebrows, with a splitting headache, and waved his hand to let him leave.

Don’t mention it, I almost choked just now. This second prince’s words are really shocking.

"Second Prince, it's not that I don't want to grant you a marriage, but a woman cannot marry two men. You should choose someone else!"

The second prince was slightly stunned. One woman marrying two men?

But he soon made his own interpretation. It seemed that the woman was old enough to be engaged, but it was only an engagement. With a noble prince like him proposing to marry her, what choice did she have? She could just cancel the engagement.

Thinking of this, he said nonchalantly: "I don't mind her getting engaged to someone else. If she marries me, she will be the prince's consort. I believe she should know how to make her choice."

The emperor's mouth twitched violently, and he patiently explained, "She's already married."

The Second Prince was stunned for a moment, then smiled and said, "Your Majesty, you don't have to feel that way. I sincerely want to marry her."

[And how can a married woman still show up in public, and do the work of a coroner? Do you really think you are a fool?]

The emperor's mouth was twitching, and even his eyelids were twitching. Is the prince of Yanhuang a fool? How can he not understand what people are saying?

His eyes subconsciously turned to Qin Miaoxi, who immediately understood the emperor's meaning and stood up and said, "Second Prince, I have indeed been married for a long time. My husband is Marquis Xuanping."

The Second Prince's eyes widened in disbelief. "You're actually married?"

Qin Miaoxi was speechless. It seemed that she had never heard anyone call her "Madam Hou"!

"Yes!"

The second prince still stared at her intently, and the next moment he said in shock, "Then you divorce me, I don't mind marrying a second-married woman."

Qin Miaoxi's expression suddenly darkened. "I do mind. My wife and the Marquis are deeply in love and have never considered divorce. Please don't force me, Second Prince."

A cold gleam flickered faintly under her nails. If this man continued to be ungrateful, she would have plenty of ways to silence him.

"If you marry me, you will not only be the Crown Princess, but it will also allow the two countries to form a marriage alliance. Don't be ungrateful." The Second Prince snorted coldly. In his opinion, Qin Miaoxi was just being spoiled. He looked up and said to the Emperor, "I only have eyes for her. If I can't marry her, then forget about the marriage."

The emperor's face turned gloomy, and he said unexpectedly: "Second Prince, this matter needs to wait for the regent to come and discuss it."

Fear flashed across the Second Prince's face. He stiffened his neck and said loudly, "I can decide my own marriage without going through the Regent."

"is it?"

A cold voice echoed throughout the hall, followed by a heavy voice. The eunuch outside shouted, "The Prince Regent and Princess Regent of Yanhuang have arrived."

A tall and mighty man walked in with a pretty and charming woman, instantly attracting everyone's attention.

Qin Miaoxi's pupils suddenly shrank. Is this the regent of Yanhuang Kingdom - the living devil Qin Guoliang?

Qin Guoliang and his wife walked past her. Chi Feiwan winked at her playfully. Qin Guoliang seemed to notice her little movement and glanced over inadvertently.

When his eyes met Qin Miaoxi's, his pupils shrank instantly, and the solemnity on his face turned gentle. He seemed to have a thousand words to say to her, but in the end he fell silent and walked up to the platform with Chi Feiwan.

"I have met the emperor."
