Medical Consort vs. Evil Sickish Prince - C320 Tracing the cause of death(1)

Liu Yanyu had intended to see a haggard, disheveled, and ghost-like Xiao Yi Xiu, but who knew that although Xiao Yi Xiu’s condition was very bleak, he was much better than he had imagined.

Xiao Yi Xiu was dressed in white, and there wasn’t even a trace of embroidery on the corners of his clothes. His expression was still calm. His hair was neat and tidy, and his clothes were clean. However, he had lost a lot of weight in just three short days. As he looked carefully into his eyes, he could see a deep pain mixed with sadness.

Liu Yanyu was on the verge of collapse, but when he saw Xiao Yixiu, he felt that he was actually in a better position. After all, Xiao Yixiu wasn’t crazy about her death, but Xiao Yixiu was different. He opened his mouth, wanting to comfort her, but no words came out of his mouth. Unknowingly, his face was wet and his heart felt cold.

“Yanyu, I have something to talk to you about.”

Liu Yanyu stared blankly for a moment before seeing Xiao Yixiu calmly open the dresser drawer and press his hand into the bottom. Then, he heard the soft sound of a clarinet, which slowly moved to the side, revealing a secret room.

Puzzled, Liu Yanyu followed Xiao Yixiu into the secret chamber. As soon as he stepped in, he saw that the two walls automatically lit up with lights. Only then could he see that it was only a shallow secret chamber.

In the middle of the room, there was a strangely shaped coffin. It seemed to be made from a piece of original logs that had been cut open and the trunk of the tree had been hollowed out. The inside of the coffin emitted a faint fragrance.

Even without asking, Liu Yanyu could already guess what the coffin was for. After taking two steps forward, his sleeves trembled, and his entire body was ice-cold. He actually couldn’t stop moving any further.

Xiao Yi Xiu stood beside the coffin quietly. The pain and sorrow in his eyes was mixed with gentleness as he rested his hand on the coffin to gaze at it.

After a while, he noticed that Liu Yanyu hadn’t come over, so he turned around and said, “Come over here. If you don’t look, how could you help me?”

Liu Yanyu’s tear stains were all over the place. He walked another two steps with much difficulty before shaking his head, “I … I can’t do it, Your Royal Highness, just let me go. ”

“Liu Yanyu!” Xiao Yixiu raised his voice, his voice seemingly unstable. It was clear that he couldn’t control his emotions as much as he could.

“This King needs your help, and it’s not to let you come sad for This King to see.”

Only then did he realize that the log had indeed been completely hollowed out, and there were even some bright green branches and leaves attached to it. The lid of the coffin was made of an entire piece of crystal, and it was extremely pure without a single flaw.

Xiao Yixiu pushed open the crystal coffin’s lid. The entire piece of thick crystal weighed at least a few hundred kilograms, but he had easily lifted it off the coffin and placed it beside the coffin.

Liu Yanyu looked into the coffin with rapt attention. He felt as if his chest had been smashed by thousands of soldiers and horses, and his entire heart had been shattered into countless pieces.

The woman in the coffin had her black hair flowing like a waterfall by her face. She was wearing only her close-fitting clothes, exposing her shoulders and limbs. This was clearly not disrespect to her, but was more convenient for Liu Yanyu to observe.

There were countless small wounds all over her body, but they were not caused by external forces. Instead, they had started from the inside and ruptured, perhaps because of repeated cleaning, only revealing her greyish white flesh. The original bloodstains had long since disappeared, making her appear even more miserable. Her lips and armor were bluish purple, and there were clear signs of poisoning when she was alive. With just a few quick glances, her cause of death became a mystery that could not be solved.

“This King wants to know how she died?”

Liu Yanyu didn’t say anything. His gaze slowly moved up her body, which was covered in wounds, and landed on her face. He originally wanted to see the symptoms of poisoning, but her beautiful face was still as beautiful as ever, causing his heart to ache.

After a long while, he slowly stretched out his hand and rolled up the eyelids of the corpse. He looked at her wounds and asked Xiao Yi Xiu, “My prince, can you allow me to be impudent?”

“You can do anything you want, but you are not allowed to … “Hurt her body.” She said she would be back. Xiao Yi Xiu didn’t know how, but he had to protect her body well. Even if she was going to break into pieces, he had to carefully protect her.

Liu Yanyu nodded. At this moment, his anger had already far surpassed his sorrow, and he was gradually beginning to understand why Xiao Yi Xiu was able to maintain such a calm demeanor.

The power of hatred was enough to keep one alive and even temporarily suppress pain.

Liu Yanyu was currently in the same mood.

Finding the murderer and avenging the princess was more important than useless grief.

His hand moved inch by inch from the corpse’s arm to the other, then inch by inch, including her long, straight legs. When he was doing this, he had no distractions in his mind. There was not a single trace of desecration on his face, only a faint trace of grief and anger that gradually increased from his solemnity.

There are only two possibilities. The first is that there is an extremely strong expert who has broken eight of her odd meridians, which I think is impossible because there are a lot of injuries on her body and they are caused by a burst of power from within. The combination of external forces is unable to create such a wound, but it is as if her meridians suddenly expanded and self-destructed. I have to explain this situation, only people who have strong thoughts of suicide will die because their meridians were split open by luck. ”

It was Helian Yu who found her and brought her back to Cheng Yang Inn. According to his memories, although there were traces of a fight, it was not intense.

“Right, so the second possibility is to commit suicide. If the opponent is strong enough to make her afraid …”

“Not to mention someone who isn’t that powerful, she wouldn’t even fear an army with thousands of men.”

Liu Yanyu nodded. He also agreed with his. She had never submitted to anyone. It was impossible for her to lower her head in fear and give up hope.

“That’s willpower control.”

Xiao Yixiu looked at him silently.

“I came back from the outer city and met a girl named Ding Fengzi in the epidemic area. Her father mentioned the plague Gu …”

“This King roughly knows what you’re talking about. Qing Li was looking into this matter before he left.”

“Maybe it’s because she found out something that led to …”

“Zhou Zhen and Little Chan went missing.” Xiao Yi Xiu’s face had always been as white as snow, but now it seemed to have turned even paler.

Actually, he shouldn’t have been able to think about it. Gu Qing Li’s disappearance first disturbed his mood, but then he no longer cared about other trivial matters. Suddenly, he remembered that when he was frantically searching for Gu Qing Li, someone seemed to have reported that Madame Zhou and her servant girl had also disappeared.

The bystanders were all aware that Liu Yanyu had reminded him of the culprit with a single sentence. It was only now that they realized they had to thoroughly investigate the people in the mansion.

After exiting the secret room, Liu Yanyu felt his legs go limp, and he couldn’t even walk.
