Lu Xingjian wouldn't listen to a word, his voice was eerily calm:
"Autopsy!"
He stood beside the corpse, watching the coroner examine the body, his mind completely blank.
I am temporarily unable to think.
How could this be the result?
impossible.
She said she wanted to be an empress.
He hasn't helped her achieve that yet.
How could she die?!
The coroner worked very quickly.
"Your Majesty, the deceased was a man."
"There was no ash deep in the throat, which shows that he did not inhale thick smoke before he died, and was burned like this after death."
"Aside from the burns, there were no other obvious external injuries on the body. The preliminary judgment is that he died from a broken neck."
Lu Xingjian's tense body immediately relaxed.
Only then did I realize that my back was soaked in cold sweat.
"How is that possible?"
Lu Youting did not believe the autopsy results.
I can't say whether I'm happy or sad.
"Wanwan is clearly in the house... Where is she?"
Lu Xingjian frowned and said:
"Block and search the entire area within a ten-mile radius!"
Steward Li hurriedly stepped forward to advise:

He quickly covered it up.
He said with some concern:

Lu Xingjian gave him a meaningful look.
His tone was cold.
With a hint of sarcasm.
"Uncle Thirteen is truly devoted to love."
Lu Xingjian mobilized enough people today.
In addition, the fire at the thatched hut had attracted a large number of people to this area.
News came quickly.
"A cannon has been found!"
"It's on the hillside just north of the burning thatched hut, which is within firing range."
"There were two corpses next to the cannon."
Lu Youting's expression changed drastically:
"What did you say?!"
The voices were all raised.
The guard who brought the news was also filled with lingering fear:
"We don't know who set up the ambush there, or who committed the murders."
"Otherwise, His Majesty might encounter misfortune!"
Lu Xingjian became increasingly calm.
She glanced at Lu Youting briefly.
"Continue the investigation."
