368 Coroner’s Work

Gu Qingxue’s casual words caused the expressions of the people present to change at the same time.

Granny Li was the first to stand out. She was the one who did not believe that Gu Qingxue was the murderer, but she tried to stop her. “Lady Gu, you mustn’t do this. The work of a coroner is something that only the lowest cla.s.s of people would do. It’s unlucky!”

Dissecting a person’s body was something only a person with a particular Bazi Chart could do. Ordinary doctors would not be willing to do such unlucky work. Unless it was a doctor who had caused the death of someone before and had to do it to earn a living, only then would they be forced to do the work of a coroner.

This kind of work was taboo to anyone, especially since Gu Qingxue was a woman. If this news were to spread, everyone would point their fingers at her spine and gossip.

“There is no n.o.bility or inferiority in a position. Besides, this is the only way I can prove my innocence. I would like to trouble Your Highness to send a few brave people over to illuminate the room for me,” Gu Qingxue said, she had already returned to her room to retrieve the knives needed for the autopsy.

Taking advantage of Gu Qingxue’s departure, Prince Heng came to Imperial Physician Qin’s side and asked in a low voice, “How confident are you in what you did just now?”

“Rest a.s.sured, Your Highness. Gu Qingxue is just a peasant woman in the village. She won’t be able to recognize the poison I used. Besides, how can a doctor do a coroner’s job well? Even an old doctor who has been practicing medicine for more than ten years might not be able to do it well, let alone Gu Qingxue,” Imperial Physician Qin said confidently.

With Imperial Physician Qin’s a.s.surance, Prince Heng’s originally worried heart calmed down. He casually found a few guards and held torches to illuminate Gu Qingxue.

Under everyone’s conflicted gazes, Gu Qingxue strode over and stood in front of the old village chief’s body.

Gu Qingxue looked at the old village chief’s body, her heart filled with mixed feelings.

She wanted to dissect the old village chief’s body, not just for her, but also so that the old village chief could die clearly.

Gu Qingxue undid the old village chief’s s.h.i.+rt, and under everyone’s gaze, she made the first cut.

The old village chief’s body was pitifully thin. Gu Qingxue easily cut open his skin with a single cut.

Princess Liuying was far away from Gu Qingxue. When she saw this scene, she could not help but vomit!

The other villagers were in no better condition. They were also in shock. They saw the old village chief’s body had been cut open by the knife, and his stomach was pitch black inside, they could not help but take a few steps back.

After Gu Qingxue cut open the old village chief’s stomach, she cut open his neck vertically and exposed his esophagus and trachea to the air.

The smell of blood spread in the air with the breeze, but Gu Qingxue did not stop doing it.

Not only that, she even explained to the people present patiently, “I suspect that the old village chief died of heart palpitations, but when I checked his pulse before, he didn’t have any heart disease, Since he suddenly died of heart palpitations, it was most likely caused by drugs. There are many poisons that can cause heart palpitations, but most of them are highly toxic. After consuming them, they will corrode his internal organs.”

Hearing Gu Qingxue’s calm explanation, the people looked at her as if they had seen a ghost.

Imperial Physician Qin, in particular, was not far from Gu Qingxue. He was so scared that his legs went soft when he saw the b.l.o.o.d.y internal organs.
