On the day when Jiang Wantang was exchanged with her eldest sister, the first thing she saw was not the sedan chair, but the body of a dead maid dressed in wedding clothes.
She found gold paint in the nails of the corpse, poison in the throat bones, and a red thread in the palm of her hand that only belonged to the old warehouse of the East Palace. Only then did she know that today's game
The marriage was not a simple exchange of relatives, but someone wanted to use her to put an old case that had been buried for thirteen years into the coffin.
But before she could open her mouth, the imperial edict to confiscate the house arrived.
The newlywed husband, Pei Yan, was the abandoned grandson who was shunned by everyone in the capital; she became the abandoned son who was exiled to the border with the sinners. Everyone is waiting for her to die on the road, die
In the deserted city, he died in a marriage that was destined to be irreversible.
But Jiang Wantang refused to accept his fate.
She can do autopsies, identify poisons, and pry the sins of the living from the mouths of the dead. On the road of exile, she relied on a corpse to save her family's lives; in the wasteland of the border town, she relied on one murder case after another.
Digging up the old accounts in the court; none of those who used her as a stepping stone would have a happy ending.
They wanted her to be buried with them, so she stepped on their bones and led the whole family to turn over.
