After five years as a military slave, she finally crawled back to Shengjing from hell, only to face her entire family's scorn. Her brother said: "You filthy thing, ridden by a thousand men ...
Chapter 328 They were reborn together!
Although she had not worked as a shoemaker in the border area for many years, she had come into contact with thousands of corpses, complete, incomplete, hacked to death, hit to death, blown to death, stabbed to death... all kinds of corpses.
Just by looking at the wound, she could tell how he died.
By looking at the body, she could tell how long the person had been dead.
Every corpse will have livor mortis.
Different degrees of livor mortis also convey different information.
Therefore, even with just a quick glance, Su Rui could confirm that the spots on Rong Huan's arm were corpse spots.
But corpse spots only appear on corpses and will never appear on the skin of living people. Moreover, the area on the arm is not small. If it is a corpse, it must have been dead for more than three hours.
It was not Dongyue's habit for Rong Huan to not wear underwear. Perhaps she was afraid that the fabric would rub against the corpse spots, which might cause pain or even worsen the condition.
Because, even though she knew that she was protected and the wolf cub could not hurt her, she still instinctively raised her hand to avoid any possibility of being touched.
After quickly lowering her hands, Rong Huan was also testing her.
Rong Huan was worried that she saw it.
Because she would not be wrong.
But why?
How could corpse spots appear on a living person? And how could they appear on Rong Huan?
This goes against common sense and is absolutely impossible...
Thinking of this, Su Rui was suddenly stunned.
It goes against common sense...isn't she an existence that goes against common sense?
Since she can do it, why can't others?
The world is so big that there are all kinds of strange things. Even if something is unusual, it will not be unique.
'You shouldn't be this kind of person.'
Rong Huan's words from before somehow echoed in Su Rui's mind again.
Shouldn't she be this kind of person?
Why does Rong Huan think so?
She had never had any contact with Rong Huan, and she had never even heard of Rong Huan in her previous life. It was even more impossible for Rong Huan to know her. Whether in the previous life or this life, she would be an existence that Rong Huan would not notice.
Even if Rong Huan had come into contact with Yun Ji and planned to investigate herself after coming to Dongyue, it would have been impossible for her to investigate in such detail that she knew everything about her. It would also have been impossible to determine what kind of person she was based on the findings of the investigation. After all, no matter how she investigated, it would have been impossible to find out everything she had experienced in her previous life.
Unless Rong Huan knew her past life.
Carefully recalling the booklet given by the Honglu Temple, it was written in Rong Huan's life that six years ago, after her mother passed away, Rong Huan fainted from crying and lived in seclusion. The next time she appeared was at a palace banquet where she was almost raped by the prince who had died suddenly, mistaking her for a palace maid. After that, her brother died suddenly, and she decisively killed people to become the current Princess Regent.
Six years ago...
If they were reborn, it is very likely that they were reborn together!
Even in her previous life, when she drifted back to the Yong'an Marquis Mansion as a soul, Rong Huan might have seen something as a soul, so she was so sure of what kind of person she should be.
But if they were both reborn people, Rong Huan probably suffered no less than herself in her previous life. However, since Rong Huan was reborn, what was her purpose in coming to Dongyue?
Just because you know Yun Ji will ascend the throne, you want to marry her and become the queen?
Then why did she expose herself and the second prince?
She should have known that the second prince would never be able to inherit the throne.
Moreover, the current young emperor was single-handedly supported by Rong Huan, and she herself was already the Princess Regent. To reach this point, she must have planned for years and already had the entire East Moon in her hands. Even though she was only a girl, the young emperor would eventually grow up, and it would not be difficult for her to control the entire East Moon now. In fact, if the young emperor was disobedient, she could just replace him with another one, or wait until the time was right and ascend the throne herself. Why bother coming to Great Zhao to be an empress? Wouldn't that be more trouble than gain?
Also, there are the corpse spots on Rong Huan's body.
Why does Rong Huan have corpse spots after being reborn, but I don’t?
Is this the key?
"Chasing the Moon."
Su Rui shouted urgently, and Zhuiyu immediately rushed out from the darkness to the window and knocked lightly on the carriage.
"Go to the funeral home and check if there's any female corpse in her early twenties who's been dead for no more than half a day."
Female corpse?
Although he didn't understand why Su Rui suddenly wanted to find the corpse of a young woman who had just died, the duty of the secret guard was to obey orders and do it immediately without asking any questions.
Even though Shengjing City was located at the foot of the imperial city, there were still evil spirits among the tens of thousands of people. There was never a shortage of corpses in the charity cemetery, but it would take some time to find a specific one, especially when they had to be brought into Prince Yong's mansion quietly.
Therefore, it was not until late at night that Zhuiyue and Wuyu brought a stiff corpse into the side hall that had been prepared long ago.
As Su Rui requested, it was a young lady's body. Although she was not very pretty, she was young after all. Moreover, she had just died, so even though her face was blue, it was not that scary.
Just knowing that the other person was dead, and the fact that it was the middle of the night, no matter how bright the candlelight was, it still made people feel uneasy, especially Xiaoru, whose face turned pale, but she was forcing herself not to leave.
Wu Yu turned his body to the side, just blocking most of Xiaoru's view. The other half was blocked by Su Rui who was standing in front of the corpse, so he couldn't see much.
"This woman died from overwork, falling down in the field. Her husband's family sold her to a charity cemetery for a ghost marriage. I pretended to be a buyer and bought her back. They said she died at midnight." Zhuiyue recounted the young woman's situation.
Life is not easy. Girls from wealthy families have to work hard to survive, and girls from poor families in the lower class are even more vulnerable to being exploited. Although we feel pity for them, we have become accustomed to it.
Su Rui did not say anything about this, but reached out to lift the white cloth covering it and took a closer look.
The joints were stiff, indicating that he had died not long ago. There were corpse spots of various sizes on his body, and the compressed areas were more obvious.
Su Rui came closer and sniffed the female corpse's skin. Not to mention Xiaoru, even Zhuiyue and Wuyu, whose knives were stained with blood, felt their stomachs churning. However, Su Rui's expression did not change at all, as if this was not a big deal at all.
Everyone's admiration for Su Rui increased to a new level.
But Su Rui had no time to care about these things.
Although the female corpse had been dead for more than two hours, there was already a smell of decay on her body. Even if it was not strong, you could smell it if you got close. Those with a better sense of smell could smell it if they got close.
Moreover, the smell of a rotting corpse is particularly different. Perhaps it is due to people's fear of death. Once they smell it, they will never forget it and will instinctively resist it.
"Luo'e, bring the things here."
Luo E immediately took the prepared box to Su Rui and opened it.
Inside were various spices and powders, several boxes of which were the powders that Rong Huan took away from Fengyun Tower today.
Su Rui took out a box, poured it into a copper bowl, added a scented powder, ground it and stirred it, then used a brush to brush it on the face, neck and arms of the female corpse.
