Xu Baoyue transmigrated into a book. After her family was arrested and their property confiscated, she was exiled to Fengzhou.

Fengzhou may have a bountiful name, but its land is anything but. Aside from wheat and a few common wild vegetables, there is precious little to eat. Xu Baoyue brushed the yellow sand from her temples, then pressed down on the spiritual spring that kept bubbling at her fingertips. She smiled wearily:

No vegetables? No problem. I'll grow my own.

No water? No problem. Just look at my brilliant drip-irrigation system.

No money? No problem. I've got vegetables, so I'll open a restaurant!

The greatest shortage of all, though, was people.

She made her way through life one practical step at a time. Nourished by the spiritual spring, she grew beautiful without even realizing it.

A matchmaker came calling. "That figure of yours... Tsk... I suppose it's good enough for him."

Xu Baoyue: No, I'm not good enough for him.

As expected, the match fell through. The families who had been on the verge of becoming in-laws became enemies instead, and everyone in Fengzhou waited to see a joke at their expense.

They waited and waited. Xu Baoyue's restaurant flourished, and Gu Wulang came to her door to ask for her hand in marriage.

[Little scene]

One day, Xu Baoyue was lifted up like a little chick and set on top of a low wall. Gu Wulang stood before her in full military uniform.

"You were right to reject my proposal. You're only in your early twenties. You can't spend your life a widow because of me."

Is that really something to say before heading off to war?

Xu Baoyue kicked him. He was a great iron ox. After kicking him, she drew a pained breath at the sight of his gleaming armor. "I..."

The next moment, he slipped a candied date between her lips.

With the date in her mouth, she poked his smooth, jade-like chin. "You... Gu Wulang, come back to me without a single thing missing!"

Coming soon: The Book of Fate

After finishing her report, forensic pathologist Yi Zhou woke up in a coffin. The grave had already been filled in.

One day, a close aide to the emperor; the next, a county magistrate in a remote borderland. Ying Shuhong was demoted to the frontier for speaking frankly to the throne. The first case he took on was the murder and suicide of the father in Xinghua Village.

Yi Zhou was dug up, then used her forensic knowledge to clear her name. The road ahead was difficult. "The magistrate is investigating the case. I... can examine corpses."

The county office was short one person.

From stolen oxen to curses in a book of fate to the tragic death of a fake heiress... From the mountain frontier to the capital, they solved countless cases and brought the truth to light. People praised him as a reincarnated upright official, but he knew the truth: it was all thanks to a skillful hand.

From an unknown coroner to a woman suspected of being the Duke's daughter, she holds a silver scalpel in her hand. She is no soul meant for the inner chambers.
