At this mont, the coroner had already finished examining Auntie Tang’s corpse and was following behind the county magistrate, preparing to report to the two Great Masters.
General Situ and Prince Pu were glaring angrily.
The county magistrate felt tortured inside, caught between them like a re pawn destined to be a scapegoat.
To be honest, he wished he were dead at this mont. How could such misfortune happen to him?
However, since the task was done, he could not avoid reporting it. He had to brace himself and walk forward...
"General, Prince."
Upon seeing him approach, Prince Pu imdiately widened his eyes and said in a rough voice, "So, my daughter was definitely killed by them, right?"
"Um...!" The county magistrate took a secret glance at General Situ’s expression, noticing his eyes fixed intensely on him. Although he said nothing, the county magistrate still felt a sense of invisible pressure.
Indeed, neither the Prince nor the General could be offended. What should he do! The county magistrate felt anxious and suddenly, a flash of inspiration hit him. He quickly turned to the coroner behind him and said, "What are you standing there for? Hurry and report the examination results to the General and the Prince."
The coroner saw the county magistrate trembling, even he could see that.
In front of the General and Prince, the county magistrate was cowardly and feared being blad, thus deliberately pushing him out as a shield.
The coroner felt very bitter inside! However, given his low rank, even if he was to be a pawn, he had to brace himself and step forward.
Coroner: "Prince, General, the results of Auntie’s examination are in."
Prince Pu: "How is it?"
"It seems to be sudden death, with no signs of poisoning."
"Rubbish, what do you an by ’seems’? Do you even know how to examine corpses?" Prince Pu was furious to hear this, his daughter was usually free from any illnesses, how could she suddenly die without warning? This coroner dared say ’seems’? Completely fed up with life.
Faced with the Prince’s thunderous rage, the coroner’s heart trembled. He was an insignificant figure, before the Prince, he felt like nothing more than an ant.
So, minimizing his presence was the only way to preserve his life.
He carefully said, "Please calm down, Prince. I have examined thoroughly, Auntie Tang was indeed not poisoned."
"Not poisoned?"
"No."
"Impossible, there must be so hidden truth, otherwise how could a perfectly healthy person suddenly be gone?"
Auntie Tang was only around thirty, usually paying attention to beauty care, and looked like she was in her early twenties. But today, seeing her corpse, the daughter’s face seed to have aged ten years overnight, he almost didn’t recognize her.
In this period, what miserable events had she gone through, being tortured to such an extent within a month?
Prince Pu was convinced Auntie Tang was murdered.
The coroner felt extrely helpless, in his line of work, evidence is paramount. Without evidence, he dared not speak recklessly.
)
Prince Pu: "Yes, my daughter was definitely murdered."
He ca, turned around, pointed at Xuexue, and shouted aggressively, "It was you, it must have been you. You are managing the General’s Mansion now, only you had the opportunity and motive to harm my daughter."
Xuexue: "If Prince Pu insists on slandering , I have nothing more to say. However, don’t forget, this is under the emperor’s feet, and everything is subject to law, you cannot do whatever you please."
