The Young Lady Coroner: The Governor's Favorite

Lin Xian is best at dealing with the dead...

A little silicone can fill in a shattered face; a needle can make a skeleton speak. After a livestream goes disastrously wrong in a crematorium, she wakes up as a village idiot, nailed into a flimsy coffin from the start.

No parents? Her coroner father, who once dissected a corpse to deliver a baby, cherishes her like his own life.

Everyone bullies her? She makes the corpses “talk” and face-slaps the whole village.

Until Pei Yan, the red-robed eunuch, arrives on a trail of blood and perfume...

By day, he is the emperor’s sharpest blade. By night, he is the most obedient “suture model” on her examination table.

A salt merchant with a shattered face, mercury poisoning in an imperial tomb, a zombie army in a mine, a Crown Prince in bloodstained robes...

She examines bones, reconstructs faces, and dissects hearts, while also healing him, a loyal, dangerously obsessive man with a damaged body.

Later, all of the capital knows:

The Governor is ruthless, yet he pampers that little darling without limit...

She takes apart bones, he hands her the knife; she sews up corpses, he holds the lamp.

On the day of her lavish wedding procession, he bends down and kisses her bloodstained fingertips:

“I can’t give you children, but I can give you a long life. How about it?”

She replies, “Let me examine a corpse first, then we’ll talk romance.”

Corpses can lie, but bones and heartbeats cannot.

This is a story of mutual redemption that crosses the boundary between life and death, and a hilarious, sweet-and-angsty daily life between a “corpse translator” and a “real eunuch.”
