The Red-Robed Coroner of the Dali Temple Breaks the Regent’s Zen

She transmigrates as an insignificant concubine-born daughter, and it's hell mode from the start! Drugged by her stepmother, forced into a proxy marriage to bring good fortune, then hunted down along the way. On a stormy night, she blunders into a secluded Buddhist temple and ends up sleeping with a Buddhist prodigy who has kept his vows for twenty years. When she wakes, she takes out three copper coins and slaps them on the table. “One night in a brothel in the capital costs five coins. Since you're a Buddhist prodigy, I'll give you a discount: three.” The prodigy's face turns livid, and from then on he goes mad pursuing his wife. She's a top forensic examiner from the 21st century, armed with autopsy skills that sweep across the ancient world! Human-skin lanterns, souls returning in borrowed bodies, princes spontaneously combusting… To her, it's all supernatural nonsense. With modern anatomy and toxicology, every vengeful spirit and demon is exposed for what it really is. She examines bodies, solves cases, takes down scoundrels, and gets revenge, blazing her way forward. From an unknown village coroner, she rises to become the top female coroner at the Court of Judicial Review, stunning the entire court! On the surface, he's a compassionate holy monk. In truth, he's a ruthless regent wielding power over the entire court. He keeps his distance from every woman in the realm, but for her alone, he breaks his vows, falls in love, and loses his peace of mind. When she's in danger while investigating a case, he scolds her for breaking the rules, yet stays by her side to protect her every step of the way. When she's poisoned by a strange toxin, he slashes his wrist on the spot and saves her life with his heart's blood. When she's framed as a witch, he tears off his kasaya in front of everyone and roars at the world: “I was never a Buddha. I am only her husband!” Human-skin lanterns, a hundred souls gnawing at the bones, hair combed at midnight, a blood-red wedding dress, a prince burned alive, poison at the imperial banquet… One bizarre case after another, one wrongful conviction after another. She examines the bones to uncover the truth, while he wields power over the court. Together, these formidable partners sweep away every demon and monster
