Synopsis

[Beneath the western window, the wind stirs the green bamboo. I wonder if it’s an old friend coming by.]

[Cool, noble heir VS beautiful, clever coroner]

Xie Jun is a renowned modern forensic pathologist, famous for her autopsy skills and brilliant deductions.

By chance, she transmigrates into the body of a woman who shares her name.

Staying at an inn draws her into a murder case.

The cool, noble Assistant Minister of the Court of Judicial Review mistakes her for the murderer, leaving her no choice but to solve the case and prove her innocence.

But who would have thought that the icy official would take an interest in her and hire her as the Court of Judicial Review’s coroner?

Shen Heyuan is of noble birth, the son of a prince and the emperor’s nephew.

Cool and noble, righteous and radiant, peerless in all the world.

Though cold and distant toward everyone, he nearly loses control at a crime scene.

In front of everyone, he takes a stunningly beautiful, incredibly bold young woman back to the Court of Judicial Review.

Thus begins their case-solving journey: a minor case every three days, a major one every ten.

A little scene:

“A Nuan, don’t you remember me?”

“It’s all right. I’ll stay by your side until you remember everything.”

Cases include a headless male corpse, a white fox that rips out hearts, human-skin lanterns,

a corpse suspended in midair, a theater-stage affair, and more. They’re in no particular order. More cases may be added, so read the story for yourself.

Note: This is not traditional historical crime-solving! There’s romance, so proceed with caution if that’s not your thing!

For someone like me who enjoys suspense and mystery, this book is just average in terms of writing style—neither amazing nor difficult to finish. However, the plot is good, and the male and female leads are well-developed. The male lead is of noble birth but not arrogant, and his personality is cool but not cold. His relationship with the female lead develops slowly and steadily.

It looks pretty good so far.

As things stand, with the story not yet finished, I personally think the female lead and the second male lead are a better match. I'd be heartbroken if they didn't end up together, but please, author, treat Zuo Han kindly. Even if he can't be with the female lead, at least give him a nice girl. That's my only wish 🥺

Although the second male lead was also good, I still prefer Prince Yuan 😳

It was great, but it ended just as I was getting to the exciting part, leaving me wanting more.

I don't know why the rating is so low, but I'm glad I didn't miss it because of the rating. I read it for the historical detective story. I don't care if the romance is weak or lacking. It's a historical detective story with good writing and well-developed characters. The cases come one after another without dragging. There are two cases I remember very clearly. I recommend it.

This is one of the better female coroner novels I've read that I read! You guys should check it out 😳😳😳 I hadn't read it until a few days ago when it wasn't finished, but now that it's ending, I'll give it a review. There are still about ten chapters left, and I think the male and female leads could have gone a bit further with the intimate scenes 😳😳🥰

This book is still worth reading. The female lead is an excellent coroner with a cheerful and lively personality and mature interpersonal skills. As for the male lead, he is of noble birth, aloof, and deeply sentimental. I especially love his love for the female lead.

It's not bad. Hopefully, the later plot won't make it too easy to guess who the murderer is, and that the culprit is only revealed during the trial at the very end. The earlier parts should focus on finding clues, allowing the reader to connect the dots and guess who the murderer is. Good, keep it up! Make the plot even more mind-bending, ideally enough to cripple your CPU.

Author, could you please write a romantic subplot for Anqi?!
