Chapter 114 The Female Coroner

After seeing Wei Xueqi off in the carriage, Hu Aman returned to Qianniao Temple.

Qin Jinzhi looked at Hu Aman and said, "Aren't you most eager to spar with Yun Que? Since everyone is here today, how about we have a match?"

An excited glint flashed in Hu Aman's eyes. "I couldn't be happier."

The same is true for larks.

The crowd immediately cleared a space.

They didn't get enough fun last time, so the two of them should have a proper competition.

Hu Aman threw her double-bladed axe to the ground.

With a solid lower body, step back with your right foot.

He spread his fists and suddenly attacked Yun Que like a tiger.

Yun Que also threw his sword aside.

Neither of them used weapons; their movements and fists clashed head-on.

Yun Que's movements were ghostly and unpredictable, while Hu Aman's martial arts were fierce and powerful.

This is a thrilling showdown of speed and power.

Cui Ying couldn't help but exclaim in amazement.

The Thousand Birds Guard recruitment requires both civilian and military personnel.

If what Qin Jinzhi said is true, then all of them need to be built.

The minimum standard for the Thousand Birds Guard is to be highly skilled in martial arts.

Otherwise, if they encounter danger, they might not even be able to save their own lives.

The martial arts skills of Yun Que and her three companions are unfathomable. This Hu Aman is actually on par with them and is fully capable of serving as a Thousand Bird Guard.

Cui Ying suddenly found it somewhat amusing, perhaps because Qin Jinzhi had been smiling more often lately.

She had forgotten what Qin Jinzhi was really like.

Those who lack real skills cannot keep her by their side.

In the end, with a slight advantage, Yun Que pointed his sword at A Man's throat and stopped an inch away.

Hu Aman laughed heartily, "As expected, Old Qin was right. I can't beat you. I'll train for a while and then we'll have another match."

The lark wiped the sweat from her face, her eyes filled with admiration.

She smiled and nodded.

Just then, there was a knock at the door.

Yun Jin opened the door and saw a thin little girl in patched hemp clothing standing in the doorway.

"Excuse me, is this Chidori Tsukasa?"

Yun Jin nodded. "What is it you need?"

The little girl took a notice out of her pocket.

"I'm here to take the Chidori Guard exam!"

Yun Jin immediately opened the door and said, "Come in!"

"Princess, someone has come to test the Thousand Birds Guard!"

Cui Ying's eyes lit up, but she was instantly disappointed when she saw who it was.

It wasn't because of what the girl was wearing.

It's because this girl is just too thin!

He was thin and frail, and his clothes were somewhat disheveled.

"What are your skills? Do you want to take the exam for a clerical or military position?"

The young woman stepped forward respectfully, her face showing some hesitation. "I don't know if a coroner is considered a civil or military officer."

Cui Ying's eyes widened. "You're a coroner?"

The coroner performs autopsies every day, and even men can do very little of that.

Coroners are usually from families that practice the profession; I've never heard of a female coroner.

The girl nodded, but looked somewhat dejected upon seeing Cui Ying's expression.

Perhaps Chidori-e wouldn't be able to accept a female coroner.

Suddenly, a voice came.

Why did you become a coroner?

The girl looked at the owner of the voice, her expression indifferent, "There's no reason, it's a family tradition."

Qin Jinzhi walked up to her, looked at the girl's thin face, and suddenly smiled, "I will personally supervise your exam, but the exam room is not here. Someone will notify you later."

There are always some women in this world who do things that are traditionally done by men.

They usually have a very great reason.

But who says that only men can do those things?

Who says women need some great reasons to justify their actions?

Women can do anything; they can do whatever they want without asking why.

A look of surprise flashed in the girl's eyes; she hadn't expected that there would actually be an assessment.

The person in front of me, dressed in a black bird-patterned robe, could not conceal his noble air.

And no one dared to contradict her when she spoke. Was this the princess?

"This humble woman, Bai Juanjuan, greets the Princess."

Qin Jinzhi looked at Bai Juanjuan kneeling on the ground and curled the corners of her lips. "Yun Jin, take her out to eat. Eat more."

Bai Juanjuan was pale and thin, and the skin around her mouth was peeling in two or three patches.

They looked like they had been starving for a long time.

Bai Juanjuan was surprised that Qin Jinzhi was so kind; the first thing she asked of her was to take her out to eat.

After Yun Jin led the person to the kitchen, Cui Ying said in disbelief, "This is the first time I've ever seen a female coroner! She actually dared to touch a corpse! She's incredibly bold!"

Qin Jinzhi said with a hint of sarcasm, "You don't dare?"

Cui Ying said with an exaggerated expression, "Of course I wouldn't dare! That's a corpse, just looking at it would give me nightmares!"

Qin Jinzhi's lips curled into a wicked smile, "Then you'll come with me tonight."

Cui Ying asked in confusion, "Where are you going?"

Qin Jinzhi said with a smile, "I'll take you to touch the corpse."

After she finished speaking, she turned and went into the house.

Cui Ying's hair stood on end!

What did she say?

What is she saying?

Cui Ying glared at Qin Jinzhi, who looked completely relaxed, and said, "Including Hu Aman and the others, there are only about twenty people. Aren't you worried at all?"

Qin Jinzhi sipped her tea. “What’s the rush? Your influence as the number one noble lady in the capital hasn’t even started yet. In a few days, the threshold of Qianniao Division will be worn down by people.”

Cui Ying didn't want to believe it, but Qin Jinzhi did indeed have the ability to control everything.

If it weren't for Qin Jinzhi's planning, she wouldn't have been able to wear this fourth-rank official robe so smoothly.

Since Qin Jinzhi has spoken, she will wait.

As soon as Qin Jinzhi announced that her shift was over that evening, Cui Ying rushed home.

Qin Jinzhi is a woman of her word, and she was terrified that Qin Jinzhi would actually take her to touch a corpse.

As night fell, Cui Ying prepared to go to bed.

She breathed a sigh of relief.

Suddenly, there were three knocks on the window.

Just as Cui Ying was wondering what was going on, the window decoration was pushed open from the outside.

She saw Yun Jin and Yun Que squatting by the window, grinning at her.

Is it too late for her to pretend to faint?

The two women nimbly flipped over and entered, lifting Cui Ying up directly.

After a gust of wind, the three figures disappeared.

The three arrived at a grove of trees outside the city.

Qin Jinzhi and Bai Juanjuan were standing in front of a grave mound.

After Yun Jin and Yun Que put Cui Ying aside, they picked up the iron shovel on the ground and dug open the grave mound.

Cui Ying's face was ashen. "Isn't it wrong for us to dig up someone's grave like this?"

As she spoke, she looked around, feeling a sense of unease creeping up her spine.

Qin Jinzhi turned to look at Bai Juanjuan, "Today's meal was quite palatable."

Bai Juanjuan smiled and said, "I have never eaten so much before. Miss Yunjin has given me more rice several times today, and my belly is still round and full."

Princess, you are such a kind person!

The world cannot accept female coroners.

So they can't get any autopsy work at all.

She often lived in constant fear of losing her life.

Today was the most satisfying meal she had ever had in her entire life!

Two meals still!

If she can pass the exam to become a member of the Thousand Bird Guard, she will definitely serve the county magistrate well!

Qin Jinzhi showed a satisfied expression when she heard that she had eaten a lot.

After a long period of decomposition, the smell of the corpse is generally unbearable for most people.

In addition, there's the appearance of the corpse inside.

Eat so much.

Will I throw up?
