Chapter 493 Examining The Corpse Of Lady Rui (Part One)
In the afternoon, just after Yun Shang had lunch, Li Qianmo came in and whispered, "master, the
corpse of Lady Rui has entered the city. I am going to bring the coroners into the pce to make an
autopsy. Will you go with me?"
Yun Shang nodded her head, "since you are going to examine my body, of course I''ll go." Then she
asked Qian Yin to call her secret guards here to help her disguise her appearance. Yun Shang looked
at herself in the bronze mirror and found that there was something wrong with her eyes. But if she was
going to pretend to be Li Qianmo''s servant, she could just lowered her head. That would be all right.
Yun Shang asked Qian Yin to polish Qian Yin''s hand and tie her feet with a pair ofrge shoes. Then
she nodded her head to Li Qianmo and said, "let''s go."
As Li Qianmo and Yun Shang walked out of the courtyard, they saw two coroners waiting by the side,
and both of the coroners had a cloth bag on their back. Seeing that Yun Shang was following Li
Qianmo, they handed the two bags to Yun Shang naturally. Li Qianmo couldn''t help but frown, but Yun
Shang took it quickly and made eye contact with him, indicating that she didn''t mind. Li Qianmo
coughed to cover his mouth and pretended to be calm.
Li Qianmo got on the carriage, and Yun Shang and the two coroners followed behind the carriage. Yun
Shang saw Li Qianmo poke his head out of the window several times along the way and look at her
from time to time. Yun Shang knew that Li Qianmo was worried about her. After all, she was from a
royal family that she seldom walked like this.
She wanted to find an opportunity to remind Li Qianmo that as she had disguised herself, Li Qianmo
should only treat her as a servant. If he continued to behave like this in the pce, she would be
recognized sooner orter.
As soon as they arrived at the gate of the Imperial Pce, Yun Shang walked forward and helped Li
Qianmo get off the carriage. She whispered her requirements to Li Qianmo''s ear, and Li Qianmo
responded yes in a hurry. As they entered the Imperial Pce, he no longer paid any attention to Yun
Shang just as she wanted.
The corpse of the fake Lady Rui was ced in the meeting hall. When Yun Shang and Li Qianmo
entered, they smelled a pungent odor of the corpse. There were many people in the hall, including Su
Qi, the seventh prince, Lady Hua Guo and the butler of Prince Rui''s mansion.
Li Qianmo curtsied to Xia Huanyu. After he drew himself together, he said to Li Qianmo with a frown,
"let the coroners have a look. See if the body is really Lady Rui or not."
Li Qianmo answered and turned to the two coroners. The two coroners rushed towards the coffins,
followed by Yun Shang, unwrapped the two cloth bags, and opened them in front of everyone. There
were all kinds of tools, including tweezers, sticks, silver needles, and some thing that Yun Shang
couldn''t name.
The two coroners took their tools and started to prepare the examination. Yun Shang stood up and
looked at the corpse in the coffin.
The woman was in a water pink dress, and all the clothes and essories she wore were familiar to
Yun Shang. Yun Shang really had those things in her mansion, but she didn''t know if they were stolen
by her people or fake. The body wasn''tb, and its hair was scattered, which was covered with

coffins. Its face, as Yun Shang thought, had already aged a lot. It was not that easy for Yun Shang to
recognize its general appearance. Yun Shang observed the body for a while. She had to admit that the
mastermind behind the plot had also put a lot of efforts into it. With this flickering sight, the person
looked quite like Yun Shang. The body had disguised her appearance. But if she had, she would have
been discovered when her body was rotting.
"She was stabbed by a sharp weapon with an arrow in the chest and died thirteen days ago. She didn''t
change her face, and the skin was in good shape. Therefore, she should live in a rich family all year
round with a six inch long foot and no disguise." The coroner looked at the body for a long time, and
slowly stated the conclusion.
"ording to your words, is she really Lady Rui?" Xia Huanyu frowned and looked a little cold.
The coroner hastened to exin, "I can only assure that this woman didn''t have a change in
appearance. She is five feet high, and has good skin. Moreover, her feet are six inches long. Moreover,
the time of her death is in line with the time of Lady Rui''s disappearance. We haven''t concluded other
things yet. It needs confirmation from people in the Prince Rui''s mansion. It''s better someone who
serves Lady Rui everyday, because it''s known to all that Lady Rui is tall and short. "
Hearing that, Xia Huanyu squinted and kept silent for a while. Then he looked at the butler of Prince
Rui''s mansion and said, "Butler Luo, have you got it?"
The Butler quickly went forward, bowed to him and said, "I understand. But her highness doesn''t like to
be served by too many people, so Lady Rui is always served by Miss Qian Yin. But we don''t know
where Miss Qian Yin is now. I really don''t know who can assure these things."
"Well, it''s easy to find a pair of shoes once worn by Lady Rui. But the height is..." The seventh prince
was silent for a moment. He looked down at the coffin and said, "Your majesty, I guess Lady Rui must
often make clothes for herself. Go and see what the shop have measured for her."
Hearing this, the Butler quickly responded, "yes, your highness. I''ll prepare it right away."
Xia Huanyu nodded his head. Then the Butler left in a hurry. Yun Shang lowered her head and looked
at her toes. She stood silently and said nothing. Then, she heard the Lady Hua Guo say, "Lady Rui is
just a woman, but there was a vicious culprit who had asked for her death! I really want to skin the
murderer alive! " She gnashed her teeth in anger.
