The Xiao family has a precedent of burying someone immediately after their death without holding a funeral.
"You can't exactly exhume the body and perform an autopsy then, can you?"
The standard procedure is indeed as Xiao Qingyin described.
After a moment's thought, the Prefect of the Capital said to Xiao Shengyuan, "Lord Xiao, I'm sorry, but your mother will probably need to stay at the yamen. We will handle the case as soon as possible."

He said irritably, "This is a food box; I brought you your meal."
