Feng Yuan opened his eyes, holding a dissecting knife in his hand. In front of him was a disemboweled female corpse - and the officials in the hall looked at him as if they were looking at the murderer.
The deceased was a concubine who was deeply loved by the saints. The coroner Feng Yuan was the last person to touch the body. The powerful people exerted pressure at all levels, forcing him to write "died of sudden illness". He sneered, turned his head and used a fine needle ground from bone to pick out a silver needle from under the tongue of the corpse - the whole crowd changed color.
Coroner? That is a hidden identity. His real skill is making the dead speak.
From the neglected mortuary to the side of the dragon chair in the Tai Chi Hall, Feng Yuan used only a scalpel to overturn the most filthy mystery of the powerful in the Tang Dynasty. When everyone believed that he was the meat on the chopping block, the body that should have been silent opened the first crack in the big lie for him.
