Friends, I spent two whole years writing this book. I scrapped and rewrote the cases countless times before polishing it into the version you see today. Writing is hard work, so please support the official edition.
Pirated copies are incomplete. I only take responsibility for the official edition.
[An impossibly pampered princess who can't take the slightest hardship x a steady, patient Assistant Minister of the Court of Justice who gets put through the wringer every day]
Her birth mother vanished mysteriously. The court hastily closed the case, and no one ever looked into it again.
To uncover the truth, Xie Wanyuan, princess of Prince Rui's residence, marries Huo Yanzhao, Assistant Minister of the Court of Justice
Only to discover that this man is utterly ungrateful. On their wedding night, he runs away?
When Xie Wanyuan catches up with him, she finds that the ever-perceptive Assistant Minister Huo has become entangled in a locked-room murder case and is being named as the culprit.
Since he hasn't recognized his new bride, Xie Wanyuan decides to go along with it. Disguised as a maid, she uses her forensic skills to help clear his name.
Vengeful ghosts, a missing courtesan, human sacrifice, a white snake seeking justice...
The two join forces to solve cases, carefully untangling one bizarre and wrongful case after another until the truth finally comes to light.
But just as Xie Wanyuan is about to reveal her identity to Huo Yanzhao, she sees Huo Yanzhao's name clearly written in the list of suspects in her mother's disappearance.
*
Huo Yanzhao is upright and incorruptible, a master of martial arts, and has already risen to the rank of Assistant Minister of the Court of Justice at a young age. His career is on a smooth path.
The only thing that hasn't gone smoothly is that, on his wedding night, he chased a criminal and ended up being accused of murder...
Out of gratitude for the maid who helped him out, he reluctantly takes her into the Court of Justice to help with the investigation.
Who knew this maid would be so pampered that she can't even eat or sleep without fussing? She's a little princess through and through!
Huo Yanzhao can't stand her, until one day he realizes that the maid is his new bride, Xie Wanyuan.
Even worse, she seems to be planning to... divorce him as soon as the case is over?
Huo Yanzhao is stunned, a dark tide rising in his eyes.
[Reading Guide]
1. Important! The hero runs away from the wedding to help the heroine investigate! The heroine has no feelings for him before her identity is revealed!
2. Primarily a case-solving story with episodic cases. Set in a fictional Tang dynasty, so please don't nitpick the history.
3. Happy ending, both leads are each other's first and only. The heroine has a growth arc and isn't very mature at the beginning, so please be patient with her.
4. The cases have plenty of clues, so it's best not to skip chapters. You can try to guess the culprit in each case.
5. The autopsies reference Forensic Medicine, The Collected Cases of Injustice Rectified, and other works.
6. Please follow me on Weibo: @Jinjiang Mo Ran Shu Xiang. The relationship charts for the cases and characters are posted on Weibo to help with your deductions. Love you all~

Coming soon: "The Wuyuan Academy" (Mystery), pleading with teary eyes for your favorites~~
[Master detective who plays the pig to eat the tiger x brooding, obsessive, fiercely loyal general]
The renowned detective Ji Suhe made a name for herself at a young age. Criminals trembled at her name, and the common people revered her as an incorruptible judge.
Then an accident sent her plunging off a cliff.
After two years of recovery, she concealed her identity, changed her appearance, and returned to the capital.
By chance, Wuyuan Academy was recruiting students to learn autopsy and detective work, so they could seek justice for the people.
To investigate what had happened back then, she went to take the entrance exam. But the moment she stepped through the academy gates, she came face-to-face with a stone statue of herself.
Before she could recover, she saw a group of students carrying fruit and candles, respectfully placing them at the statue's feet and lighting incense:
"Lord Ji, please bless your students with success in their studies!"
Ji Suhe: ...
She had planned to take it easy at the academy and recuperate, but one unsolved case after another kept cropping up.
When she saw her classmates wrongly imprisoned and dozens of victims kneeling in tears, she couldn't hold back...
So much for keeping a low profile!
But once she started, she couldn't stop.
Later, the Minister of the Court of Justice personally came to ask her to investigate a case. Everyone praised her as the next great detective Ji.
Amid all the rewards and applause, Ji Suhe had only one headache
Could Lu Changyu, that "head teacher," stop secretly investigating her all the time?
**
General Lu Changyu is a master of martial arts, with countless military victories to his name. He is a great hero whom everyone admires.
When he returned from a campaign, he was eager to see Miss Ji, whom he'd secretly loved for years, only to learn that she had died beneath a cliff.
For the first time, the usually stern Lu Changyu's eyes reddened. He secretly vowed to avenge her.
Two years later, Lu Changyu joined forces with his father to establish Wuyuan Academy.
Then a female student arrived. She was brilliant at solving cases, but her appearance and mannerisms reminded him of Ji Suhe in every way.
After testing her several times, Lu Changyu concluded that she couldn't be the person he once knew. He took her for an imitator, a ridiculous copy.
He mocked her, deliberately undermined her, and did many awful things.
Only by doing so could he feel he was getting justice for Ji Suhe.
Until one day, he suddenly realized that this woman was Ji Suhe.
Lu Changyu's heart stopped.

Theme: Punish evil, promote good, and defend justice
Judging from the layout of the article, the author has indeed put a lot of thought into the whole story. Judging from the writing style, it's still a little bit behind. It's not that attractive, and the various atmospheres are just average, making it impossible to immerse yourself in. I hope to continue my efforts and create more good works.
The heroine is too smart, and the protagonist's aura is too awesome, hahahaha, wait for the next update
It feels like the small team that once fought side by side has been shattered.
After the second brush, I finished reading it in one sitting. Hurry up and write the next one, I can't wait [empty bowl] [empty bowl]
It took me two days to read it. I feel that the core points of the two elixirs are not explained clearly. Since the Immortality Pill does not require an antidote and only requires you to survive the drug addiction on your own, then the pill became popular in the capital three years ago. There must be many people who only took one pill and survived on their own. Don't you know that? Moreover, the few high-ranking officials who died in the underground palace didn't explain clearly what happened. They could survive on their own without pills, so why did they die? It couldn't just be that he was killed because he was a political enemy of the emperor, right? Overall, this book is really good in terms of the plot part of the unit drama, where the detective decrypts the puzzle, and so on. The final part that does not require an antidote feels like a forced reversal but the logic is not smooth. The emotional line part is really awkward. In the first few pictures, the heroine's head is jumping wildly, I don't know what she is doing? In addition, the details are a bit inappropriate. It feels like everything the protagonist does has to be written out in order to make up the word count. It's like watching a surveillance video, with no focus.
The reason why things keep getting worse is that everyone around them is a traitor, hiding everything from you and me, watching the two protagonists unraveling the chain like fools
The case is very exciting, but the emotional drama between the male and female protagonists is too awkward, especially in the early stages when the drama is not lost, which makes people feel heartbroken.
So who is the man with the tattoo on his arm, and why is he in the princess's yard?
Digging and digging in the little garden
Nice! The exciting main line of the case is also clear.
