Chapter 115 Cut Sleeve

Yun Que and Yun Jin kicked the coffin open.

Cui Ying's gaze involuntarily drifted into the coffin.

With just one glance, she felt like slapping herself ten times.

She ran off to the side and vomited violently!

The air was filled with the smell of rotting corpses.

Qin Jinzhi frowned slightly, and Yun Que immediately handed her a silk handkerchief.

The three of them took a step back and covered their noses.

Bai Juanjuan showed no unusual expression, but instead asked, "Princess, may I move the body out? I can't do anything while it's in the coffin."

Qin Jinzhi nodded.

Yun Que and Yun Jin were about to go up and help, but Bai Juanjuan waved them away.

"Ladies, please step back a bit. This corpse has been decomposing for some time, and there will be bodily fluids leaking out. Don't get your clothes dirty."

She smeared some dirt on her hands and then directly lifted the body out of the coffin.

When Cui Ying turned around, she saw Bai Juanjuan holding a corpse that consisted only of its body.

There were two dark holes around the eyes.

"yue..."

At this moment, she wanted to apologize for her prejudice during the day.

Qin Jinzhi said, "This is your test."

Bai Juanjuan's eyes lit up, and she took out all the scattered limbs from the coffin and placed them on the bamboo mat she had brought.

Then, she took out a pry bar, silver needles, feathers, and a craniotomy tool from her cloth bag one by one.

She saw signs that the body had already been examined, but only a rough examination had been performed.

I figured it was probably the person who was assessed last time.

She will definitely be hired if she can detect more problems.

Qin Jinzhi pulled Cui Ying, who had her eyes tightly closed, over.

"You'd better open your eyes, or this corpse will appear in your backyard."

Cui Ying suddenly opened her eyes. A devil! A great devil!

She said, "How could Qin Jinzhi possibly be associated with kindness!"

When she opened her eyes, Bai Juanjuan had already disemboweled the corpse.

Cui Ying gripped her hand tightly.

She knew that if she really wanted to make a difference...

These are all things she has to go through.

If you're in a high position and can't even see a corpse, what kind of future do you have?

Seeing that Cui Ying's face was pale, Yun Jin took out a silk handkerchief and handed it to her.

Cui Ying took the handkerchief and covered her nose and mouth, though she had to be strong.

But she still trembled uncontrollably as she clung to Qin Jinzhi.

About half an hour later, Bai Juanjuan stood up.

“Princess, this person died of intracranial hemorrhage. He was probably first struck on the temple, causing him to lose consciousness and fall to the ground. Then he was repeatedly hit on the back of the head and died. Also, he should have taken Chrysanthemum Yang Powder before he died.”

Qin Jinzhi and the other two raised their eyebrows after hearing this. "Juyang San?"

Seeing the three people's somewhat amused expressions, Cui Ying quickly asked, "What is Juyang Powder?"

Bai Juanjuan scratched her head, a little embarrassed, and then said, "Juyang San is for men who prefer male-male relationships, um, to enhance their pleasure."

Cui Ying stared wide-eyed at the corpse on the ground, "You're saying he liked men?"

Bai Juanjuan felt somewhat embarrassed, after all, in this era, homosexuality was a very outrageous thing.

An enigmatic smile appeared in Qin Jinzhi's eyes. "Go on."

Bai Juanjuan pointed at the corpse and said, "Juyang Powder will damage the body. Long-term use of Juyang Powder will cause flower-shaped red spots on the tongue and the man's genitals, and the eyes will turn pink. It's a pity that these three organs are gone, otherwise I could tell how long he had been taking it."

Qin Jinzhi chuckled softly. What venting?

It turns out it was to destroy evidence!

Li Chao's son, Li Mi, was a homosexual; he had been having an affair with the murderer before he died.

There must have been some kind of argument, and Li Mi was beaten to death by the murderer.

The eyes, tongue, and genitals were gouged out because if they were discovered, it would leave evidence that Li Mi was gay, and the person who killed Li Mi was afraid that the investigation would trace it back to him.

Qin Jinzhi asked, "Was the severing of the limbs and the removal of these organs done by the same person?"

Bai Juanjuan nodded. "Judging from the time it took for the wound and the blood to clot, it was done by one person, but not entirely. The initial wound on the corpse's left arm should have been done by another person. Considering the condition of the corpse, it should have been a man who was not very strong."

Qin Jinzhi turned to Yun Jin and said, "Have your men investigate which man Li Mi is associating with."

So this is what Li Chao was afraid of?

If people find out that his son is gay, the Li family's reputation will be in jeopardy.

He might not even be able to hold onto his position as Minister of Justice.

What role does Wei Ziming play in all of this?

If all the wounds were inflicted by one person, then that person must be acting on orders. To be able to mobilize Wei Ziming's men, besides being a member of the Wei family, must be someone of high rank and power.

Li Chao's illegitimate daughter was raised outside the city while pregnant, and his son was a homosexual.

Li Chao has quite a strong mental fortitude; no wonder he served as Minister of Justice for so many years.

Qin Jinzhi felt that once this mystery was solved, she would immediately reap a sweet reward.

In that case, why not just ask the person involved directly?

Qin Jinzhi looked at Bai Juanjuan and said, "You'll be joining the Thousand Birds Guard tomorrow. If you have any questions, ask Vice Envoy Cui."

Bai Juanjuan was stunned for a moment, then knelt down on the ground with tears in her eyes, "Thank you, Princess!"

Yun Jin and Yun Que buried the soil back up.

"Yun Jin, you take Bai Juanjuan and Cui Ying back."

After saying that, she took Yun Que to the house outside the city where Li Chao's illegitimate daughter was imprisoned.

When Qin Jinzhi entered the woman's room, all the servants in the house fainted.

She sat down at the table in the room, and Lark lit the candles.

The woman on the bed had her hands bound with silk and a chain around her ankles.

His mouth was gagged and tied up.

His eyes were fixed on Qin Jinzhi.

Qin Jinzhi looked at the person on the bed and asked with some doubt, "Your father seems to love you a lot. He's so afraid of you dying that he's even willing to protect your unborn child."

The woman glared fiercely at Qin Jinzhi.

Qin Jinzhi remained expressionless. "Yun Que, tear the gag out of her mouth. Don't even think about biting your tongue to commit suicide. Biting your tongue to commit suicide is a lie. You won't die; you'll just feel pain."

Yun Que tore off the woman's strip of cloth, and the woman looked at Qin Jinzhi with a wary expression.

Who are you?

Qin Jinzhi crossed her legs, stared at her now larger belly, and asked, "Whose child is in your belly?"

The woman closed her eyes and stopped looking at her.

The woman's resolute attempt to kill herself last time, coupled with the servant's panic, proved that this wasn't the first time she had attempted suicide.

She didn't love the child in her womb either, otherwise she wouldn't have attempted suicide multiple times.

Despite the commotion, Li Chao still managed to save the woman's unborn child.

This doesn't look right at all, does it?

Qin Jinzhi pulled the dagger out of her boot and threw it on the ground.

The dagger made a crisp sound when it hit the ground.

"Answer me, and I'll give you a chance to die."
