Emperor Ning nodded and sat down. The coroner came in, and slowly walked in front of emperor Ning. Emperor Ning asked, "how's the test going?"
The coroner said, "Princess Hua Jing died miserably. There are many scars on her body, including the marks of whips and the holes in the path cut by a thin blade, and her fingers were clamped. Moreover, the belly of Princess Hua Jing seemed to have been hit heavily, leading to the miscarriage in her belly. What really increased her death was the scars on her neck, which should be caused by a sword. And she took a fatal blow from it.
Emperor Ning put his hand on the armrest of his chair, and he knocked his fingers carefully. He had not loosened his brows since he left the Imperial Palace, and now his brows knitted more tightly.
"Have you found anything else?" Emperor Ning's voice was quite calm.
The coroner said hastily, "I found this in Princess Hua Jing." The coroner took out a few things from his sleeve and handed them to Emperor Ning. The eunuchs standing by the side immediately took them over, and opened one by one for emperor Ning.
"I found that there are letters and tokens from the Third Prince of the state of Yelang as well as letters of her and Li Jingyan." The coroner said softly.
Emperor Ning nodded and looked at the letters in the eunuch's hands. He read them one by one carefully, without saying a word for a long time, and said faintly, "put them away."
Emperor Ning's eyes fell on the woman lying on the couch. She was dressed in a servant girl. Emperor Ning felt that the maid looked familiar, so he did not speak for a long time.
