The best detective among the artists, the heroine x the most wooden man among detectives, the hero
1
In the fifth year of Xin'an, Xu Xiu's father was falsely accused of treason.
On the day their home was seized, she saw her childhood friend Fang Lin talking with her father. Fang Lin looked furious, then turned and walked away. Not long after, her father struck his head against a pillar and died.
In the tenth year of Xin'an, Xu Xiu disguised herself as a man and joined the Court of Judicial Review, all for Fang Lin.
She had narrowly escaped death and returned to the world of the living. She swore to uncover the truth, avenge her father, and clear her family of the false charges.

Fang Lin had been at the Court of Judicial Review for five years. He had solved plenty of strange and baffling cases, but thought little of Xu Xiu's method of identifying criminals through portraits.
One mistaken deduction put Xu Xiu in danger.
After rescuing her, he found that Xu Xiu's hair had come loose, revealing that she was a woman. What's more, this stunning beauty looked remarkably like the childhood sweetheart he had searched for over the past five years.
The usually iron-willed Fang, a senior official of the Court, was now filled with bitterness and guilt.
He said sadly, "It's been years since we parted. How have you been?"
Xu Xiu didn't notice what he was feeling. She still thought they were arguing over a superior and subordinate's differences.
She sneered. "If you wanted to hurt me, why save me? Aren't you taking this act too far, Lord Fang?"

One night, Xu Xiu crept into Lord Fang's room in the dark. Just as she found what she was looking for and turned to leave, the candles suddenly lit up.
Fang Lin smiled with interest. "It's late. Here to pay me a visit?"
Xu Xiu waved the letter in her hand. Her voice was cold. "You were deeply involved in the Xu family's massacre. I've taken the evidence. See you in court tomorrow."
Fang Lin: "Not so fast. Take a closer look."
Confused, Xu Xiu opened it. The letter read...
It was a love letter confessing his feelings for her!
And it was signed Fang Lin?!
A Guide to Slacking Off at the Court of Judicial Review:
1. This is a very loosely imagined ancient setting.
2. Portrait artists existed as a profession in ancient times, but they weren't used to solve crimes like the heroine does.
3. The author revises obsessively. The version on Jinjiang is the definitive one. Thanks for supporting the official release.
Theme: May the world know peace and the seas be calm.

The latest chapter of the backend has been reviewed, but I have to go to bed now, so it's locked and I can't change it in time. Little cuties, just watch it tomorrow. Woohoo.
Peace of mind, little cuties, I have revised the details of the case starting from Chapter 18. Those who haven't read it can wait, and those who have read it don't need to know how to read it, because the specific plot has not changed, but some reasoning processes have been added to make the plot smoother. And, thank you again for your support~ (bow gif)
At this time, do you like the Xiao Jing in your memory or the A-Xiu now... I am not happy when I mention the relationship between A-Xiu and Xiao Jing.
As a first novel, the author is already very good, but the writing style and story direction are still very young. I hope that I can continue to work hard and write better works.
Finished with flowers
No updates tonight, double updates will be made up tomorrow
