Su Jin, a 28-year-old forensic doctor, was framed by her colleagues and caused a serious miscarriage of justice. Her mentor retired to protect her. When the laboratory exploded, she thought her life was over - but she opened her eyes and became Shen Qingci, the daughter of a criminal in the Tang Dynasty. Her father was falsely accused and imprisoned, and the original coward fell into the water and died. What was left to her was the lowly status of "the daughter of a widower" and the ostracism from the capital.
The work of men is despicable, and the autopsy of women is even more "ominous". But how can the spirit of the scalpel of a modern forensic doctor be afraid of the cold bones in the green coffin? In the case of the shop waiter's "drowning", she overturned the conclusion of "misstep" based on the distribution of body spots, and uncovered the truth about the shop owner's murder and hidden taxes; at the scene of the embroiderer's "suicide", she showed signs of forgery with a fractured hyoid bone, and the rouge mineral powder between her nails locked the slaves of the powerful.
Xiao Che, the judge of Dali Temple, is cold and taciturn but obsessed with the truth. When they first met, he questioned her for "exceeding the rules of autopsy". After seeing her again, she has shielded her from the harsh accusation of "immorality" and even took the risk to help her examine the corpses of officials in the name of "plague investigation". From the streets of Chang'an to the deep gardens of the palace, from the death of the bodyguards to the suicide of the county magistrate, she used silver hairpins to test for poisons and bones to analyze the cause of the disease, and used modern forensic knowledge to uncover layers of conspiracies, and even got to the core of the corruption of Li Linfu's party members.
Faced with the identity gap, the whirlpool of party strife, and the trappings of her colleagues, she fought for every step; Xiao Che's protection of shortcomings, the jade pendant of love, and the sacrifice of his life to block arrows allowed her to take off her armor. In the Jinluan Palace, she used animal corpses to verify acupuncture killing techniques, exposed the true face of the powerful traitor, and eventually became the "chief concubine", revised the autopsy classics, and opened a school.
With the green coffin as a guide and the bones as words, a modern forensic doctor who was frustrated in the workplace embarked on a path of forensic legend in the prosperous Tang Dynasty, and gained even more affection.
