Chapter 75: Exposing the Trick



"Tsk tsk tsk, how heartless! I rushed all the way here from the capital to ask Divine Doctor Jiang to treat your legs. Not only did you damage my clothes, but you didn't even invite me to your house for a visit." Xu Zimo's eyes rolled and he said with a smile, "Jingheng, I miss my Aunt Xu very much. Why don't I go with you to visit her today? I just got two baskets of good things." He sent the servant to call Qian Niang.

Qian Niang walked in gracefully, carrying strawberries. When she saw that the person her husband was entertaining was actually He Jingheng, her face froze for a moment.

"Jing Heng, this is it! Do you know what this is called? I haven't even seen it before. You, a rough guy who has been in the military camp all day, must have never heard of it. This is called..."

"Strawberry." He Jingheng interrupted him before he could finish.

"H-How do you know?"

At this time, Qian Niang smiled awkwardly: "Master, this strawberry was really sent by the Crown Prince's Consort."

What?

Xu Zimo looked at He Jingheng in shock. That beautiful woman turned out to be Shangnian’s concubine’s daughter?

What kind of luck does He Jingheng have?

"My mother eats your strawberries every day, so you don't have to worry about them." After saying that, he left with Yuntian.

He really wanted to know how this little woman determined that Heningan did not die from falling off the cliff.

At this time, Shang Ruoyi was standing in front of County Magistrate Zhang.

"Really?" Magistrate Zhang's expression was cold, and his scrutinizing eyes fell on the coroner who was wiping his sweat next to him: "What do you say?"

"My Lord, the wound on the deceased's head was probably caused by falling off the cliff."

"Indeed, it is normal to get a head injury after falling from such a high place." County Magistrate Zhang nodded after hearing this.

"Where are the corpse spots?" Shang Ruoyi looked at the coroner with a cold gaze and said, "Wounds may lie, but corpse spots won't lie."

"Corpse... Livora..." The coroner hesitated for a long time without making any clear statement.

"The livor mortis on the body is concentrated on the back, which means that the deceased was lying on his back when he died. In addition, the weather is cold now, and once the livor mortis is formed, it is difficult to move or fade." She said in a cold voice: "When the body was found, it was lying on the ground. If, as you said, he fell to death, then the livor mortis should be concentrated in front of the body."

She said in a cold voice: "Could it be that he turned himself over after being dead for a long time?"

The coroner was speechless and trembling all over.

Upon hearing this, Magistrate Zhang shouted angrily, "How dare you! How dare you deceive me!"

The coroner fell to his knees with a thud: "Your Excellency, I am innocent! I was not clear-headed today and was careless for a moment. Please give me a chance!"

Magistrate Zhang snorted coldly: "No need, since the cause of death has been found, there is no need to bother the coroner to check again. However, I have many questions, and I hope you can answer them well." After he finished speaking, two officers stepped forward and dragged him away.

"Please spare my life, sir! I am innocent! Sir! Please look carefully!"

The coroner was dragged away, and Magistrate Zhang smiled and bowed to Shang Ruoyi, saying, "Thank you very much, Mr.

꽬人?

This name made her feel a little uncomfortable for a while.

"You don't have to be polite, sir. Just call me Shang Ruoyi."

Magistrate Zhang smiled and said, "I didn't expect you to know a little about autopsies." How could this be the extremely timid and weak person among the princes? Is it possible that the prince has an eye problem? Or... He couldn't help but make a bold guess, could it be that the person the prince was thinking of was not the one in front of him?

hiss······

"I just like reading some words about this, I didn't expect that I would get involved." Shang Ruoyi laughed. It was just an autopsy. As an agent, she not only learned how to kill people, but also learned how to understand different ways of death. For this reason, she even took further anatomy courses and became the most proud disciple of the anatomy professor.

"If it's true as you said, that He Ningan was thrown down, then this matter will be troublesome."

Just then, a servant came over and whispered something in his ear, and County Magistrate Zhang's face suddenly turned dark.

Seeing this, Shang Ruoyi said tactfully, "Since you are busy, I will take my leave."

After she left, County Magistrate Zhang asked coldly, "What's going on?"

"I don't know either. On the way to escort him back, I found that he suddenly died."

At this point, even a fool would know there must be some conspiracy: "Investigate! Ask the officials to investigate!"

When Shang Ruoyi returned home, He Jingheng suddenly came back. Qin was wiping tears beside her, and He Jingheng's eyes were full of helplessness.

"Look at you. You're so grown up, but you don't even tell your family when you go out? Do you know how worried your mother is?"

"Mom, I'm twenty, not twelve. What are you worried about?" He Jingheng was really annoyed: "Besides, I led troops to fight when I was twelve years old, and I never saw you cry like this."

Qin was choked by his words. Seeing this, He Yunyi stepped forward and whispered, "Mother is actually worried that you killed my second uncle."

He Jingheng: “…”

Seeing her brother's face darken, He Yunyi immediately said, "Brother, don't be angry." At this time, she saw Shang Ruoyi walk into the main hall from the corner of her eye, and she breathed a sigh of relief. The savior had come, and with her sister-in-law here, her brother would definitely not be angry.

"Sister-in-law, you're back."

Shang Ruoyi nodded and said to the old princess: "Grandma, that man is undoubtedly my second uncle."

The old princess sighed and said nothing.

He Zhiyuan sighed, "I didn't expect that my second brother would die like this."

Just then, a maid came in and whispered, "Old man, Master Jinghe has woken up."

"I see." The old princess stood up with the help of Aunt Li: "I'll go and take a look."

Shang Ruoyi narrowed her eyes slightly, Master Jinghe?

He Yunyi knew what she was thinking and whispered, "After seeing He Jinghe like that, grandma, for some reason, wanted to keep him in the mansion."

"Grandma said that?"

He Yunyi curled her lips and said, "I've heard from the elders in the mansion before that He Jinghe is the child who looks most like his grandfather. I think it's because of this that even though he has such a background, grandma still can't bear it!"

A hint of coldness appeared in Shang Ruoyi's eyes. Want to stay? dream!

"Since he's awake, I'll go take a look and see if there's anything I can do to help." Shang Ruoyi asked Yingxue to get her medicine box. She wanted to see what He Jinghe was up to.

"I'm going too!" He Yunyi is now like her little follower, wishing she could follow her twelve hours a day.

When Shang Ruoyi arrived at He Jinghe's residence, she heard him crying softly: "Grandma, my father died so tragically!"

A grown man crying like a fool.

"Old man, Mr. and Miss are here." Aunt Li said softly.

꿁꽬人?

Shang Ruoyi?

Upon hearing this, He Jinghe's eyes rolled back and he fainted.
