I Married into the Princess’s Household and Used Forensics to Steady the Great Tang

Lu Shiyuan, a master forensic investigator, transmigrates to the ninth year of Wude in the Tang dynasty and becomes the son-in-law brought into the family to bring good fortune to Princess Pingyang, Li Xiuning.

Everyone in Chang’an thinks he’s a useless pretty boy who lives off his wife. Even the dogs can’t stand him.

Then one day, a baffling headless case at the Dali Court sends shockwaves through the court.

With a helpless sigh, Lu Shiyuan opens his case and pulls out a set of autopsy knives that leave everyone gaping.

Skeletal reconstruction, trace evidence collection, psychological profiling, ballistic calculations…

Using modern criminal investigation techniques from a thousand years in the future, Lu Shiyuan overturns one ironclad court case after another and drags one powerful clan after another to the pillory. The entire Great Tang goes mad!

Crown Prince Li Jiancheng: “Who said he was useless? Every assassin I sent ended up as one of his specimens!”

Prince of Qin Li Shimin: “Brother-in-law, please examine one more corpse. I’ll give you half the Great Tang!”

Princess Pingyang Li Xiuning watches as the court officials kneel to beg her son-in-law for guidance. Gritting her teeth, she corners him by the bed. “Lu Shiyuan, how many more talents are you hiding? If you don’t tell me everything tonight, you’re not getting out of bed!”

Lu Shiyuan toys with his scalpel and smiles. “Living off my wife while still wearing the pants is the highest virtue of a forensic investigator.”
