The Dali Temple Deputy Minister’s Female Coroner: Case Files

[The rating is low because it just opened!]

[Lazy, lie-flat coroner x aloof workaholic Vice Minister of the Court of Judicial Review]

Modern forensic pathologist Du Yexin was in a car accident and unexpectedly transmigrated into the body of a farmer’s daughter in Sui’an County, where she became entangled in a murder case.

To clear her name, Du Yexin had no choice but to use her modern forensic knowledge to find the real culprit.

Xu Mian, son of the Minister of Justice, solved the theft from the imperial mausoleum and was promoted to Vice Minister of the Court of Judicial Review. Carrying an imperial edict, he went to Sui’an County to reform the local officials.

The night before he left, his grandmother took his hand and said with a mysterious smile, “Du Yexin of Sui’an County is your betrothed. Bring her back while you’re there!”

A coroner speaks for the dead and seeks justice for the living.

Du Yexin cut open the dead man’s abdomen with a small knife and pulled out the mass inside. “My lord, look. The victim’s lungs are severely fibrotic. He died of suffocation.”

Xu Mian drew a sharp breath. She was certainly skilled at examining corpses, but this was too terrifying. Who would dare marry her?

“This humble woman is Du Yexin, my lord.”

Xu Mian spat out his tea. “I’m marrying her?”

-

To keep her by his side investigating cases, the hopeless romantic in him had a sudden idea and forged an “outrageous IOU.”

Du Yexin gritted her teeth. “You win. Fine, I’ll do it!”

After learning the truth, she packed her bags and prepared to leave.

But Xu Mian blocked her at the door, his eyes red. “Stay. I need you.”

Her once aloof superior had turned into a lovesick fool, but Du Yexin raised her fists. “Work is work, and feelings are feelings. Lord Xu, shouldn’t we settle the score for your scheming first?”

Later on,

everyone in the prosperous capital knew that the once aloof Lord Xu was henpecked and had been chased by his wife for three whole streets.
