Days as a Coroner at the Court of Judicial Review

[A clever coroner who plays dumb x a scheming, obsessive assistant minister of the Court of Justice] Let's see who gets the better of whom.

When the emperor flew into a rage, rivers of blood flowed. Of an entire family of loyal patriots, only one little girl escaped death.

Fifteen years later, Shen Chu was once again mired in trouble. To stay alive, she had no choice but to examine corpses and investigate cases. As soon as she showed her talent, she caught the attention of Lin Huaiyan, the jade-faced devil and assistant minister of the Court of Justice.

From then on, Shen Chu had to devote herself to examining bodies and solving cases by day, while constantly keeping her guard up against the assistant minister at night.

Shen Chu: My lord, I really don't know medicine, understand the law, or know how to investigate cases.

Lin Huaiyan: No matter. I'll clear your father's name.

(The heroine isn't obsessed with romance. This isn't a power fantasy. Slow burn, focused on personal growth.)

Everyone knew that Lin Huaiyan, heir to the Prince of Ling, was peerlessly handsome, and countless women were enamored of him. He, however, looked down on women.

He punished treacherous ministers and overturned wrongful cases.

Who could have imagined that the man who struck fear into corrupt officials and evil spirits alike would fall into the hands of a little coroner of unknown origins who was afraid of dying? He willingly braved tiger's dens and defied the emperor's wrath, all to help her be reborn from adversity!
