On the Night I Broke Off the Engagement, I Found a Disgraced Crown Prince. I Made My Fortune Dissecting Corpses

As Yu Zhaochun dissects corpses with her bone knife, she can not only see where the dead hid their private stash, but also livestream crime scenes to the blind, sickly beauty she found at the mass grave!

Others solve cases through deduction. She solves them by taking the sickly beauty's hand to "watch the replay in high definition," then uses the dead's resentment as a powerful tonic for her delicate companion.

From then on, one digs graves with a knife and makes money off the dead, while the other pretends to be blind and coughs blood to calculate the magistrate's reward money. Together, they turn a dilapidated funeral home into the most profitable "underworld agency" in the Great Sheng dynasty!

Her newly appointed scholar fiancé thinks touching corpses is unlucky and comes to break off their engagement. She slams her bone knife into the table and extorts a whopping forty-eight taels, plus two racks of pork ribs, with interest!

When a local tyrant and gentry hire someone to frame her, she hauls three rotting corpses to the county yamen in the middle of the night and stages an "on-site dissection," frightening corrupt officials into wetting themselves and confessing on their knees!

The powerful in the imperial court all consider forensic examiners a lowly class. But she intends to take her human-shaped cheat all the way from the county town to the imperial city, dissecting her way through them. Any noble clan that dares talk back will find her digging up their ancestral graves to examine the bones!

But the sickly fellow in her home, who spends all day acting pitiful to wheedle braised pork out of her, is getting more and more suspicious. Every time assassins attack at night, all he has to do is yawn through the window lattice and their necks snap.

Then the imperial guards arrive, carrying five hundred taels of gold, begging the deposed crown prince to return and take charge. Yet Young Master Shen clings to her abacus and refuses to let go. "Mistress, don't sell me. How about I offer you the whole empire to cover my medical bills?"

Come on in and see how this money-loving female coroner uses a single butcher's knife to turn the scheming deposed crown prince into her personal lucky cat!
