Chapter 361 Mistery All Over The ce (Part One)


    Yun Shang turned around and looked at the female corpse on the ground. After a moment of silence,


    she felt something was wrong. When she knew that the prison was set on fire at night, she thought that


    she was the target. As soon as Hua Jing was put in prison, the prison was set on fire. What a


    coincidence.


    It was not until now that Yun Shang realized Xia Houjing also died in the prison. If the assassin only


    wanted to kill Hua Jing, it would cost a lot for doing this.


    Yun Shang frowned and fixed her eyes on Prince Jing, who had never spoken the whole time. His


    identity had just been known to the public the day before yesterday. It was also the day before


    yesterday that Xia Huanyu and his father issue an imperial edict for alliance. Since the heavenly prison


    had caught a fire yesterday, and the crown prince of the state of Xia, Xia Houjing had died in it.


    It was a perfect n to kill two birds with one stone. Both she and Prince Jing were taken into the


    storm. If they took a wrong step, their reputation would be ruined.


    Not far from the room where Hua Jing was held, it was the cell of the crown prince Xia Houjing. It took


    them several steps to reach the corpse. Different from the corpse of the fake Hua Jing, Xia Houjing was


    lying on his stomach with his face facing the ground so close to the ground that his face, which was not


    covered by the quilt, seemed not to be burned. Frowning, Emperor Ning ordered his servants to turn


    over the corpse.


    Xia Houjing''s face was extremely fine and not burnt at all. He closed his eyes, and his face was full of


    pain and anxiety. His hair was almost burned to ashes. Yun Shang looked at him, and knew that he


    was the real Xia Houjing from one nce. Even the best human skin mask could be seen with slight


    marks around the hair line. However, even this corpse''s hair had been burned to ashes, not a trace of


    wearing a mask was seen.


    Xia Houjing was really burnt to death, but Ning Hua Jing was not. What was the murderer''s intention?


    Yun Shang frowned and felt confused about it.


    Xia Huanyu had already been brought in. He paused a little at the sight of Xia Houjing''s corpse. After a


    long while, he said, "it''s Jing''er''s corpse." He looked a little pale.


    Emperor Ning nodded, "it happened in the heavenly prison of the state of Ning. I will find out the truth


    as soon as possible and give the crown prince of the state of Xia an exnation."


    Yun Shang noticed that Xia Huanyu had stared at the corpse for a long time. Then he squatted down


    and touched Xia Houjing''s face. he kept silent for a long time before he suddenly stood up. he

    stumbled and then raised his eyes. "The crown prince''s corpse was first ced here and let the


    coroner check it. If it''s finished, please notify me, emperor Ning, so I can also ask someone to bring the


    corpse back home."


    Emperor Ning hummed and agreed. After a while, he looked up at Prince Jing and said, "the cooking


    oil in the prison is too strong. Qingyan, please send the emperor Xia back first."


    Hearing this, Prince Jing paused. He looked up at Xia Huanyu and then at Yun Shang. She knew that


    he was worried about her, so she said quickly, "I''ll go back to the pce with my father. Go ahead."


    Prince Jing nodded and walked out of the prison with Xia Huanyu.


    "When will the coroner be here?" Emperor Ning said calmly with no expression on his face.


    The head of the court of Justice said in a hurry, "Your majesty, he will be there soon."


    But it was nearly an hourter than Yun Shang thought. When she walked around alone in the prison,


    she found something strange, the gas was too strong. It had been almost two hour since she had left


    with emperor Ning, but she felt the gas didn''t seem to fade at all. Logically speaking, though the prison


    was very solid, it didn''t need so much tress oil. It was eye-catching with so many tress oil whether


    bought or transported.


    When Yun Shang returned, the coroner was already there. He had started to examined the corpse of


    Xia Houjing.


    "He was suffocated to death not burning to death." The coroner took a handkerchief and wiped his


    hands gently.


    Yun Shang looked at Xia Houjing and frowned. "His body was buried on the ground with his head


    facing down. Perhaps he didn''t want to be choked by the smoke, so he buried his face on the ground.


    He was so close that he almost choked."


    The coroner shook his head. "The cooking oil is very heavy with a little poison, and even if he leans his


    face on the ground, there will still be a gap, which is impossible that he hasn''t breathed in any smoke."


    "So, Xia Houjing was killed in the first ce and then the fire started?" Yun Shang couldn''t help but


    frown. If that was the case, then the culprit''s main target should be Xia Houjing, or rather, Luo Qingyan.


    The coroner nodded and walked towards the cell of Hua Jing with emperor Ning.


    In front of the female corpse, the coroner bowed his head to check the corpse for a moment and asked


    softly, "I''ve heard that Princess Hua Jing is pregnant?"


    "Yes, she''s about four or five months pregnant. I don''t know the details." Yun Shang said gently. She


    had just examined the corpse, but the abdomen of it was indeed a little swollen, so she did not pay


    much attention to it.


    "This corpse is not pregnant. If what you said is true, it shouldn''t be princess Hua Jing." The coroner


    said in a low voice, splitting the mouth of the corpse with his hand, and checking its eyes and ears


    before he said, "she was burned to death."
