The Divine Doctor and Adorable Consort: The Demonic Emperor is Too Cunning

The guards felt that Fang Qingyou looked ordinary and was too young, while this handsome young swordsman was chivalrous and had a dignified air, so he might actually have some skills.

Fang Qingyou felt hurt because she had guessed what the guards were thinking. Sure enough, there are always people who judge others by their appearance in any era.

She may look quite ordinary now, but you should know that she was a genius doctor, and before she transmigrated, she was definitely a stunningly beautiful woman with an exceptional presence.

Fang Qingyou looked down at her sallow hands, then at her flat chest, and clenched her fists tightly. She was determined to get her body in good shape as soon as possible and become beautiful again!

Along the way, Fang Qingyou learned from the leading guard that they were all guards in the palace, and that the imperial edict she had taken down was one they had posted not long ago. In addition to Nanguan County, the same imperial edict was posted in Yunjing City and other suburban counties.

In other words, there was more than one imperial edict, and there was also the possibility that imperial edicts in other places could be torn down by other people.

In other words, someone will be taking her job!

Compared to the others, her only advantage was that she was closest to the Nanguan County government office where the deceased's body was kept.

Thinking of this, Fang Qingyou became nervous; she was determined to get her hands on that hundred taels of gold.

Therefore, Fang Qingyou said to the head guard with a righteous expression, "Brother Bing, let's hurry on our way. If we can find out the cause of death of those victims sooner, we can bring the murderer to justice as soon as possible and prevent the next victim from being harmed. Saving lives is like putting out a fire, and every minute of our time is extremely precious."

The head guard, who had initially thought Fang Qingyou was quite ordinary, couldn't help but look at her more closely after hearing her words. He thought more highly of her and nodded, saying, "You're right. Saving lives is urgent, and we can't afford to delay!"

With that, the lead guard instructed the other guards, "Brothers, quicken your pace and try to get to the county government office in Nanguan as soon as possible!"

A group of guards quickened their pace, while the handsome young swordsman remained unhurried, though his speed was noticeably faster.

Fang Qingyou practically ran to catch up with them.

Throughout the process, Fang Qingyou could feel the admiring gazes of the handsome young swordsman upon her.

Fang Qingyou blushed. She was actually quite virtuous, with her own selfish motives. In her past life, she had never lacked money, but now she felt that she had lost all her integrity in order to make money.

Fang Qingyou became even more determined to stay away from this handsome young swordsman. He was just too innocent, and his pure gaze made her feel utterly ashamed.

Fortunately, Fang Qingyou was soon taken to the county government office in Nanguan County.

As Fang Qingyou stepped into the county government office, she was still thinking that she was going to see that arrogant county magistrate again. In fact, she was more looking forward to seeing the "magistrate" with the most beautiful legs.

The truth is that Fang Qingyou was not taken to the main hall of the county government, but directly to the morgue.

Upon reaching the outside of the morgue, the head guard divided the group of guards into two groups, taking only two guards with him into the morgue, while the rest of the guards stood guard outside, ready to be dispatched at any time.

At the same time, the head guard said to Fang Qingyou, "This is the morgue. The five bodies inside are all victims of this serial murder case. The coroner's supplies are ready and can be brought up at any time, and you can examine the bodies at any time."

Fang Qingyou was somewhat surprised that the autopsy procedure was so simple. She had originally thought that the county magistrate would first ask her questions, such as her place of origin and family situation, and then someone would test whether she really knew medicine.

"Brother Bing, please bring up the coroner's supplies now." However, Fang Qingyou didn't ask any further questions, attributing all the reasons to the imperial edict.

Everyone knows this is an imperial edict, and only those with real skills would dare to open it, unless they really don't want to live.

Fang Qingyou was unaware that the simple procedure was not due to the imperial edict, but because the person who received the edict was Luo Qianmo, the most special prince of Yunyue Kingdom.

"Alright." The head guard turned around and glanced at the two guards behind him, then they withdrew to prepare.

Soon, the two men carried up a table containing the coroner's items.

Fang Qingyou glanced at the supplies on the table. There were no modern dissection gowns and matching scalpels, only some simple knives and medicinal herbs.

However, Fang Qingyou was not troubled, as she was quite familiar with the methods used by ancient coroners to examine corpses.

Fang Qingyou first found a jar, mixed Atractylodes lancea and soapberry in it and burned it to remove the odor. Then she applied sesame oil to her nose, put a small piece of ginger in her mouth, and then folded five pieces of cloth into five simple face towels.

Fang Qingyou put one of the face masks on herself; it was just the right size to completely cover her mouth and nose.

Fang Qingyou originally wanted some mint wrapped in a face towel, firstly to remove the odor, and secondly to refresh herself.

However, there was no mint among these coroner's supplies, and given the urgency, she didn't make any further requests.

Fang Qingyou prepared the remaining four face masks for the three guards and the handsome young swordsman.

However, before they put on their face masks, Fang Qingyou gestured for them to first apply sesame oil to their noses and hold ginger in their mouths, just like she did, and all four of them cooperated.

After that, Fang Qingyou put on gloves, selected a few handy tools, nodded to the leading guard, and indicated that he was ready.

The head guard opened the door to the morgue, and as soon as the door opened, a stench of decay hit them.

Even with the medicinal smoke from burning Atractylodes lancea and Gleditsia sinensis, even through a face towel, even with the smell of sesame oil and ginger, the stench was still particularly noticeable.

The three guards' expressions turned ugly, but Fang Qingyou remained unfazed, as did the handsome young swordsman.

Fang Qingyou, who walked into the morgue, seemed to have suddenly become a different person. She was no longer the cheerful person she was before, and her expression became extremely serious and earnest.

Seeing her like this, the three guards realized they had underestimated her, while the handsome young swordsman's admiration for her only grew stronger.

Fang Qingyou didn't notice their expressions at that moment, because her mind was completely focused on the five corpses.

Next came the autopsy process. Fang Qingyou decided to start with the most recently deceased person, because the closer the time of death, the easier it would be to find clues.

However, before examining the bodies, Fang Qingyou bowed to each of the five deceased as a sign of respect.

In fact, Fang Qingyou could determine the order in which the five corpses died based on their smells, but she wouldn't draw any conclusions unless she was completely certain.
