Luo Lingwei glanced at Zhao Zhixian, but didn't say anything. She nodded and said, ”Okay, bring the corpse over. I want to examine it.”
When everyone heard this, they couldn't help but be a little surprised, even Whitey and the others. Although esteemed wangfei's knowledge and knowledge spread far and wide, this was the first time they heard that Luo Lingwei was skilled in coroner's work.
As soon as he said that, the dead body was carried by the servants. After almost a year, the corpse had completely rotted away. Now that he couldn't drip any more blood, he had to steam it up.
Luo Lingwei followed the method of evaporation and steamed the arm bone several times. Afterwards, she took it out and waited for the bones to cool down.
After everything had been prepared, Luo Lingwei looked at Shen Chunniang and said, ”Today, Shen Chunniang, if you don't report this, I will forgive you. Have you thought this through?”
Shen Chun Niang looked at Luo Lingwei's serious expression as tears welled up in her eyes. She kowtowed deeply to Luo Lingwei and said, ”May esteemed wangfei plead for justice on behalf of this commoner!”
”Alright, alright, alright. Let's start the autopsy.” As Luo Lingwei spoke, she took out a short dagger. However, she did not call Shen Chunniang to come over to drip blood, but rather called for Zhao Zhixian, Jiang Zifu, and Liao Zhou Mu.
”I'll have to trouble you three sirs to bind your bones with blood!” Luo Lingwei said with a faint smile.
The three of them looked at each other, not knowing what Luo Lingwei meant.
”Esteemed Empress, the three of us are innocent …” Prefecture Overseer Liao was somewhat puzzled and opened his mouth to try and explain.
”It's fine. You three can give it a try first.” Luo Lingwei said.
The three of them had no choice but to cut their own fingers and drip their blood on the bones. After that, the three of them asked incredulous questions.
”This... ”This …” Both Prefecture Overseer Liao and Prefecture Overseer Jiang pointed at the bone with their eyes wide open.
It turned out that when their blood dripped onto the bone, it seeped into the bone. However, this was different from what the coroner had said. As smart as Liao Zhou, he immediately understood that the coroner had accepted the bribes!
”Someone come!” ”Take this coroner away!” At this moment, Liao Zhou was so furious that his beard was crooked. As a stately father and mother, he was actually played by a vile character. If news of this got out, what could he do as a father and mother?
The servant heard this and immediately took the coroner into custody. Luo Lingwei pointed at Zhao Zhixian and said, ”And this Zhao guy, lock him as well!”
The messengers were stunned. Fortunately, Zhang Long and Zhao Hu reacted quickly. Each of them had a hand on Zhao Zhixian's shoulder. They kicked his knees and made him kneel on the ground.
