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

Luo Qianmo shook his head with some distress: "No, I asked the magistrate of Nanguan County about some details yesterday. Each of the victims died under mysterious circumstances, and their faces looked extremely painful, as if they were killed by the same person. I suspect it is indeed a serial murder case. However, their deaths resembled poisoning, but no poison could be found. There were no fatal wounds on their bodies, and even senior coroners could not determine the cause of death."

I showed Xuanqing and Xuanzhu the victim's condition, but they were also clueless. The perpetrator is even more elusive; not a single trace was found at the crime scene. The case is very complex, and I'm afraid it won't be solved anytime soon.

Empress Qin was initially very nervous, but upon hearing this, she immediately breathed a sigh of relief. It turned out that there was no progress in the case, and she had worried for nothing.

On the surface, Empress Qin looked at Luo Qianmo with concern and asked, "Is this case really this difficult? Then, Mo'er, what do you plan to do?"

Luo Qianmo's expression was resolute: "Since I have agreed to take on this case, I will definitely investigate it thoroughly and will not disappoint the Empress Dowager. I plan to issue an imperial edict to summon talented people from all over the country to see if anyone in the common people can find out the cause of death of these people. At that time, this case will be solved."

Hearing Luo Qianmo say this, Empress Qin almost couldn't help but laugh.

"Luo Qianmo, Luo Qianmo, I thought you were hiding your strength all along, but I didn't expect I still overestimated you! If a senior coroner can't determine the cause of death, there are still court coroners, and if that doesn't work, there are imperial physicians. But you actually thought of summoning doctors from the common people? Haha, I'm afraid that once this imperial edict is issued, you will become the biggest joke in the world!"

……

By the time Fang Qingyou arrived in Nanguan County, it was already broad daylight.

Fang Qingyou originally intended to go directly to the villages in the northwest of Nanguan County to practice medicine, but when she arrived in the center of the county town, she found a large crowd gathered in front of a wall at the vegetable market, seemingly looking at something.

On either side of this wall stood a row of solemn-looking guards with swords.

Fang Qingyou then remembered that she had heard that this wall at Caishikou was an "official wall" where the imperial court would post any announcements, such as arrest warrants, conscription orders, and general amnesty decrees.

These announcements were all closely related to daily life, and Fang Qingyou also wanted to take a look to see what the Yunyue Kingdom's court was announcing.

However, Fang Qingyou became depressed when she reached the notice board.

Because the people standing at the front of the notice board were all adults, forming a tall "human wall" layer upon layer, and because of her short stature, she couldn't even see the notice, let alone get a sliver of vision!

Fang Qingyou felt like she had been hit with a thousand points of damage, and had no choice but to obediently stand at the back and wait for the people in front to leave before she could see.

However, the waiting process was truly agonizing. Listening to the snippets of conversation among the people in front of her, Fang Qingyou was itching with impatience, wishing she could see the announcement immediately.

Just then, a polite voice came from behind Fang Qingyou: "Young man, may I ask how to get to the South Gate?"

Fang Qingyou didn't react at all; she never expected that this "little brother" was calling her.

"Young man, could you tell me how to get to the South Gate?"

Fang Qingyou still did not react.

Until someone reached out and patted her on the shoulder: "Young man, could you tell me how to get to the South Gate?"

Fang Qingyou felt like her shoulder bones were about to be shattered. Who was it that hit her with such force?

I turned around with a frown, only to see a bright and sunny young man's smiling face.

The young man had bright, heroic eyes, a handsome face, and a tall, elegant figure. He carried a long sword on his shoulder and exuded an air of unrestrained chivalry.

Fang Qingyou, a die-hard fan of good looks, was stunned. This was practically a glimpse of the handsome young master Xiaoyao.

"Young hero, where did you say you were going?" Fang Qingyou's anger vanished instantly, and she smiled so much that her eyes crinkled.

"South Gate. Young man, do you know how to get there?"

“I know. Young hero, just follow this road straight ahead until you reach that crossroads. See that crossroads? Then, turn right…” Fang Qingyou was directionally challenged and could never distinguish between east, west, south, and north, but she tried her best to describe the detailed route.

After listening, the sword-wielding youth smiled and clasped his hands in thanks to Fang Qingyou, saying, "Thank you, young brother."

"You're welcome." Fang Qingyou never thought of herself as a fangirl; she just had a weaker resistance to stunningly beautiful faces.

"Aww, I wish this were the modern era, I really want to take a picture with him..." Fang Qingyou watched the sword-bearing youth leave until someone accidentally bumped into her, at which point she reluctantly looked away.

At this moment, Fang Qingyou noticed that the "human wall" in front of the notice board had finally opened up a bit, and she quickly filled in for herself.

A bright yellow notice was posted on the notice wall, with two bold and powerful characters written at the top: Imperial Edict.

"Imperial edict, imperial edict! I never expected it to be an imperial edict!" Fang Qingyou exclaimed excitedly. This was the first time she had ever seen an imperial edict since she transmigrated to this strange world.

In fact, Fang Qingyou had seen the imperial edict in her previous life, but that edict was sealed in a museum exhibition hall.

After reading the contents of the imperial edict, Fang Qingyou's eyes lit up with excitement.

Fang Qingyou was very fortunate that in her previous life she had loved studying ancient medical books since she was a child and was very familiar with ancient characters, so she was able to easily understand the contents of the imperial edict.

The imperial edict stated that the court was summoning talented individuals from across the land to assist in solving a series of murders, with a reward of one hundred taels of gold.

When Fang Qingyou saw the hundred taels of gold, she felt as if everything in front of her was glittering gold.

Fang Qingyou carefully read the imperial edict several times to confirm that her understanding was correct.

Throughout this process, wave after wave of people came and went around Fang Qingyou, and in the end, they all shook their heads and left.

By the time Fang Qingyou realized what was happening, she found herself all alone in front of the notice board.

Just as Fang Qingyou was about to take down the imperial edict, a clear voice suddenly called out from behind him: "Young brother!"

This time, Fang Qingyou was particularly sensitive to the voice and immediately turned her head, whereupon she saw the handsome young swordsman who had asked for directions earlier.

"Young hero, what's wrong?" Fang Qingyou thought she must be smiling beautifully.

"Young man, I'd like to ask for directions again. How do I get to the South Gate?"

Fang Qingyou was taken aback. She had given such detailed directions just now, so how come she couldn't find this handsome young hero?

Seeing the confusion on Fang Qingyou's face, the handsome young swordsman said somewhat awkwardly, "Young brother, I'm sorry, I forgot the route you mentioned."

Fang Qingyou suddenly realized that the handsome young hero hadn't forgotten how to get there; he was simply a complete directional idiot.

However, the way he blushes is so adorable and cute...

The handsome man is in trouble. Should she save him, save him, or save him?
