“Coroner Lin, the Empress is here.1‘
After Zhang Jinglin entered the room, he called for coroner Lin, who was in the middle of an autopsy. Upon hearing that the Empress had arrived, coroner Lin was so frightened that he hurriedly knelt.
” Greetings, Empress.”
“No need to be polite. Have you tested the results?”
Su Qing raised her hand and asked the coroner to get up. She kept looking at the poor pregnant woman. She had been dead for a long time. Her face was ashen, her eyes were black, and her face was swollen. Her lips were open, and her teeth were bleeding. Her eyes were wide open as if she was complaining about her grievances.
“The pregnant woman should have died of suffocation.
Coroner Lin spoke cautiously, but his tone was firm.
“What do you mean?”
Su Qing looked at him and asked. Coroner Lin pointed at the pregnant woman’s cheeks and teeth for Su Qing to see,
” Your Highness, look. The pregnant woman’s face has blood stasis, her teeth are rose-shaped, and there’s bleeding under her eyes. Livor mortis appeared early and is widely distributed. The corpse is slowly cooling. These are all symptoms of suffocation. I suspect that someone suffocated the pregnant woman to death.”
“Not bad; write an autopsy document!”
Su Qing nodded. This coroner, Lin, was quite skilled. He had described the symptoms of suffocation. If he dissected, he would also find blood stasis in the internal organs, blood stasis in the mucus membrane, embosom, lung edema, dark red blood flow, and so on.
in ancient times, very few people dissected the body unless they wanted to check if it was poisoned and what kind of poison it was. That was why they dissected people.
Under normal circumstances, the cause of death would be determined based on the coroner’s experience. The coroner’s document was a written document that could define the cause of death.
“Other than the mother-in-law of the pregnant woman, all the doctors and handymen on duty have to be interrogated.
Su Qing told Zhang Jinglin that she was the one who started this clinic and taught all the doctors. She didn’t want spies to sneak in, so she took this opportunity to investigate.
“Guard Li, bring some men over...” New novel chapters are published at novelhall.com
Su Qing called Bodyguard Li in and arranged for him to monitor everyone.
“Investigate everyone who had come into contact with her.
“The Empress has someone she suspects?”
Zhang Jinglin was accompanying Su Qing. When he saw that she had arranged for Guard Li to spy on everyone, he asked her in a low voice,
” Yes.” Su Qing nodded.
” I can’t be sure yet, but this person is very suspicious.”
Su Qing pointed at the pregnant woman and said to Zhang Jinglin,
“I guess this woman’s mother-in-law is already dead.
Zhang Jinglin quickly asked,
“There’s delicious food!”
Yun ‘er turned around and shouted excitedly at her brother,
“Brother, there’s so much delicious food.”
Ziqi only glanced at it and still had no appetite.
“Ziqi, let’s eat.”
Su Qing hugged Zi Qi and reached out to ease his furrowed brows.
“A man has to be able to bear the burden. Everyone will die. One day, your mother and father will also die. Those who are alive should still live well.”
“Yes, this child thanks mother for her guidance.”
Ziqi understood her mother’s words, but he was still sad.
“Eat well.”
Su Qing placed Ziqi on the stool and handed him a pair of chopsticks. “Mother made your favorite cherry meat. Eat it while it’s hot.
“Thank you, Mother.”
Yun ‘er was a sweet talker. She thanked her mother before picking up a lamb chop with her chopsticks. Her hands were small, but she was very strong. She steadily picked up a large lamb chop and gave it to Su Qing.
“Mother has worked hard.”
She picked up another piece and placed it in Ziqi’s bowl. Her big black eyes looked at her brother with grief.
“Brother, let’s eat.”
Su Qing looked at her daughter with relief. The little girl was drooling, but she still cared about others first.
Yun ‘er’s face twitched. She imitated the adults and sighed deeply.
“If only Rui ‘er were here. He loves to eat lamb chops made by mother.” ” You bully him when he is around but miss him again after he left.
Su Qing wanted to laugh when she saw her daughter sigh. She looked like a little adult with a rich expression.
Yun ‘er blinked and shook her head thoughtfully.
“I didn’t bully Rui’ er. I was teaching him martial arts!”
Su Qing remembered that her daughter had smashed Zhang Qirui into a mud monkey. In the end, Zhang Qirui was so scared that he lay on the ground and could not get up!
“Haha, Yun ‘er’s little mouth can turn black into white.”
Xiao Zeyu laughed loudly as he walked into the Cuning Palace. The moment he entered, he could smell the fragrance. “Qing ‘er is making delicious food again?”
Xiao Zeyu had a bellyful of anger in court today, but when he came back and saw his son, daughter, and wife, his mood instantly brightened.
“You’re in luck. Eat quickly!”
Su Qing smiled and handed him the chopsticks. Seeing the anger in Xiao Zeyu’ eyes, she asked casually,
” Did things go badly in court today?”
