Chapter 1200: Chapter 1200 Coroner
"I will certainly uncover the truth. My daughter won’t die in vain; there must be blood for her blood."
"As long as Prince has evidence, feel free to take Xuexue’s head any time."
Prince Pu glared angrily, "Don’t think that your sharp tongue can deceive everyone. I don’t buy it."
"Prince Pu, just report to the authorities. Why waste words?"
"You...!"
Xuexue’s composed demeanor further infuriated Prince Pu. He immediately ordered the servant to report to the Yamen, instructing them to bring the coroner to examine Auntie Tang’s body. When the evidence is irrefutable, let’s see how Situtu Xueer can argue!
Since today is the anniversary of Auntie Tang’s death, the gates of the General’s Mansion were wide open, allowing people to come in and pay their respects, a kind of folk custom.
Upon hearing this, the surrounding residents, knowing that Prince Pu was unwilling to accept the loss of his beloved daughter, quickly went to report the case to the Yamen. Immediately, they flocked to the General’s Mansion to watch the commotion, and soon, the mansion was surrounded by a dense crowd.
In less than Half a Cup of Tea’s time, the county magistrate quickly arrived with his subordinates.
Realizing that it was Prince Pu who reported the case and accused the General’s Mansion, this almost terrified the county magistrate to death.
Neither Prince Pu nor General Situ were people he could afford to offend. However, he had no choice but to come! After careful consideration, he came hurriedly with his men, thinking that if a blade is to fall eventually, let it be swift to avoid prolonged suffering.
"Haha...!"
Just as the county magistrate stepped into the inner hall, he saw the anxious face of Prince Pu and involuntarily smiled. Suddenly, realizing the atmosphere was not right, he quickly covered his mouth with his hand.
In his eagerness, Prince Pu didn’t notice this detail. Seeing the county magistrate had arrived with his men, he immediately seized him, "County magistrate, you must uphold justice for me. My daughter was in the bloom of youth, healthy as can be, yet she died mysteriously overnight with too many suspicious points. Magistrate, please investigate thoroughly for me. Was my daughter murdered? If she was indeed killed, I won’t let the culprit go, even if it means presenting a petition to The Emperor."
Upon hearing these words, the doctor was also shocked in his heart.
The rumors outside were indeed true. Although the Prince held no real power, he was close to The Emperor, so if he casually spoke ill of someone in front of The Emperor, it couldn’t be ignored.
"Yes, yes, Prince, rest assured, I will do my utmost."
Who knew before the county magistrate’s words were finished, a series of fierce coughing erupted from the side by Situ Yongjie, "Cough cough cough...!"
The county magistrate understood this signal, the General was warning him to be impartial and not make secret maneuvers behind his back.
Caught in the middle, the county magistrate looked troubled, glancing at Situ Yongjie and then at Prince Pu, both being revered figures, unsure of what course to take at that moment.
Prince Pu grew impatient, "County magistrate, why are you still standing there? Get on with the job!"
The county magistrate, perspiring on his forehead, hurriedly lifted his sleeve to wipe it and said, "Yes, yes."
After saying this, he shouted at one of the men behind him who looked like a coroner, "What are you standing there for? Get over here quickly."
"Yes."
The person, as it turned out, was indeed the coroner, and today he was there to examine Auntie Tang’s body.
The white cloth covering Auntie Tang was slowly removed.
The body had clearly been arranged, dressed in a shroud, with her hair neatly combed. However, even with a thick layer of powder, it couldn’t conceal the haggardness of her visage from when she was alive.
