The mind-reading coroner drove the court crazy

Seeing this, Liang Hongkai could only try to smooth things over, "Young Marquis, Lord Sheng! Let's talk it out."

Sheng Mingyuan didn't know what he was thinking about. He glanced at Fan in his arms and said in a deep voice, "Okay, please ask Qin the coroner to help find an inner room for my wife to rest."

This time, Qin Miaoxi didn't need to say anything. Liang Hongkai quickly led the way and asked the yamen runners to invite a doctor to reassure him.

The room suddenly became quiet. Qin Miaoxi looked at Sheng Mingyuan with scrutiny and asked calmly, "Master Sheng, I have a question for you."

Sheng Mingyuan lowered his eyes and responded indifferently, "Please speak, Mr. Qin."

"Why did the skirt you bought appear on Miss Wang?"

Sheng Mingyuan's eyebrows were filled with indifference. "What do you mean by this, Mr. Qin? I'm sorry, I don't understand."

"I saw with my own eyes the dress you bought. Why is it not on your wife but on Miss Wang instead?"

Sheng Mingyuan stared at the dress in her hand in confusion, "Isn't this what my wife wears? I don't know who Miss Wang is. It's just a skirt, can't Miss Wang buy it herself?"

"This skirt only comes in this style."

Sheng Mingyuan shrugged helplessly, "Then I don't know."

Seeing his clueless expression, Lu Qingchen sneered, "You don't know? Miss Wang disappeared that night wearing this very dress. Lord Sheng, you actually say you don't know?"

Sheng Mingyuan said sincerely, "When I returned home that day, I immediately gave all the clothes I bought to Madam. The servants in my house can testify to this. As for what Madam does with it, I will not care, let alone ask."

Qin Miaoxi stared at him meaningfully. This man was really interesting. He said that he loved Fan, but whenever something happened, he would push Fan aside to block it. Such love and care was quite unique.

Since Sheng Mingyuan said he didn't know, she had to point it out: "You mean, your wife took your clothes and gave them to Miss Wang, who she has a conflict with?"

"I don't know." Sheng Mingyuan pondered for a moment and said, "Perhaps you can ask Miss Wang who gave her the skirt."

"Of course!" Qin Miaoxi nodded with a half-smile, "Of course we will ask."

Sheng Mingyuan didn't say anything else, but sat down on the chair and closed his eyes to rest.

Qin Miaoxi and the other two met in the back hall to exchange ideas.

Lu Qingchen cursed and said, "There must be something wrong with this man. His wife is in a coma, but he sits there calmly as if nothing happened. In my opinion, his love for his wife must be fake."

The three of them felt the same way. After looking at each other, Qin Miaoxi said, "I'll go to the inner room and take a look."

Inside the room, Fan Lihua was lying on the bed with a pale face.

Qin Miaoxi walked forward, gently lifted Fan Lihua's sleeve, and her pupils suddenly shrank.

No wonder she had that kind of resistance just now, it turned out to be...

Just then, Fan Lihua woke up slowly. She looked at Qin Miaoxi blankly, then became angry again. "Where is my husband? Where did you hide my husband?"

Qin Miaoxi avoided her sharp nails and said, "Your husband is waiting for you outside..."

Before she could finish her words, Fan Lihua struggled to get out of bed and look for someone.

"He was the one who inflicted the injuries on you, wasn't he?"

The other person froze in place. [How did she know I was injured? What else does she know? No, I can't harm my husband.]

"No, I fell on my own."

Qin Miaoxi looked directly into her eyes and said, "It's easy to distinguish between a fall injury and a whip injury. I can explain it to you in detail."

Fan Lihua pursed her lips and said no more.

"It doesn't matter if you don't say anything. If you assault the family of an imperial official, the government will definitely intervene. They'll investigate everyone around you one by one and quickly identify the target. I'm afraid that person will be stigmatized and later..."

She glared at him, "Shut up, are you trying to kill us?"

Qin Miaoxi stared at her intently, "No, I just want to help you."

A flash of pain flashed across Fan Lihua's face. "What are you doing helping me? My husband is only suffering because he doesn't have children. I'm sorry for him. I can't let him have a stain on his body."

"So Miss Wang really is having an affair with Lord Sheng, and you're sharing your husband?"

Qin Miaoxi's words exploded in her mind like a bolt from the blue. Her face was pale with ashes, and she stammered, "I... I don't understand what you are saying."

"My husband only flirts with those women. Once they have children, they won't see each other again. Yes, I am the woman my husband loves most."

Qin Miaoxi listened to the self-PUA words in her heart and shook her head speechlessly, "Madam Sheng, being asked to share is a form of plunder. If he really cares about you, he won't do anything to make you sad and painful."

Fan Lihua stared at her in astonishment, lowered her head thoughtfully, and murmured softly, "Is that so?"

"If you don't love yourself, who will love you?"

Her words were like enlightenment, and no one had ever said them to Fan Lihua.

Her husband told her that the Sheng family was the most important thing; her parents told her that even if she lived well in her husband's family, she should not forget her parents' family; her mother-in-law told her that a woman who could not carry on the Sheng family line was a waste, and it was only because the Sheng family was kind that they did not divorce her.

She seems to have forgotten how to love herself?

"You went to give Miss Wang the clothes that Lord Sheng bought that night, right?" Qin Miaoxi looked at her with sharp eyes and boldly guessed those incredible possibilities.

Fan Lihua stared at her in shock, and nodded slightly after a long moment. "Yes, the Wang family approached my husband not long after they arrived in Beijing. They wanted to marry their daughter off to him as a concubine, to continue his family line."

"Master Sheng agreed."

Thinking of the Wang family's later behavior, she was certain that the Wang family had found a backer, and it should be Sheng Mingyuan.

Fan Lihua bit her lip tightly and nodded in response, "Yes, my husband promised the Wang family that as long as Miss Wang gets pregnant, he will take her in."

"You don't agree with this?"

She chuckled self-deprecatingly, "How could I disagree? How much say do I have in this matter?"

Qin Miaoxi did not comment on this. In this marriage, Sheng Mingyuan held an absolute dominant position.

"Then why did you attack Miss Wang at the palace banquet?"

Fan Lihua's eyes flashed with ferocity, "That bitch is so delusional that she actually wants to challenge my position as the legal wife."

After she finished speaking, a sweet smile appeared on her face again, "My husband said that no matter how I treat those wild women outside, it's okay. This is a manifestation of his love for me."

Qin Miaoxi couldn't help but smack her lips. This Fan was completely brainwashed! Even now, she still thought Sheng Mingyuan loved her.

"Did you actually meet Miss Wang that night?"

"Yes, she did. After receiving the clothes, she mocked me and I slapped her."

"and then?"

"Then I left."

Qin Miaoxi paused, "Have you seen her maid?"

"No, she was the only one in the yard."

This coincided with what the maid said, and she looked at Fan Lihua deeply.

"Since you trust your husband so much, how about we make a bet?"

"What are you gambling?"

"Just bet on whether he loves you or not?"
