[Faked Death] [Regent] [Autopsy] [Strong Heroine] [Mystery]
The first thing Ye Zhaozhao did after transmigrating was attend her own funeral.
She had become the Ye family's eldest legitimate daughter, poisoned to death and already lying in a coffin, waiting to be buried.
The moment Ye Zhaozhao pushed open the coffin lid and sat up, the entire mourning hall erupted into chaos.
Her stepmother fainted on the spot, her half-sister dropped her chopsticks into the soup, and only the regent, Shen Du, who had come to pay his respects, stood perfectly still, eyes narrowing.
Ye Zhaozhao touched the marks around her neck and the needle holes in her arm. Something was wrong. The original owner hadn't died of illness. Someone had killed her.
In her previous life, Ye Zhaozhao had examined over a thousand corpses. She could identify how someone died just by touching the body.
In front of all the guests, she spoke up at once. "Who says I died of an illness? Take a look at this needle mark, then smell the almond scent in the coffin."
The mourning hall erupted. The Ye family tried to hush her, the capital prefecture wanted to investigate, and Shen Du stepped in front of her, shielding her from the "calming tea" the Ye family offered.
Ye Zhaozhao looked up at him. "Why are you helping me?"
Shen Du replied quietly, "I've always been interested in interesting dead people."
From that day on, she examined corpses, traced poisons, and hunted down killers, while he deployed troops and toppled powerful clans. Together, they turned the whole capital upside down.
