Shen Ruojing then interrupted her, “If Consort Luo really died from anger because of my mother, then I would have nothing to say. But did she really die from anger?”

Upon hearing this, the head of the Luo family and Mother Luo immediately looked at her.

At this moment, Princess Consort Yan’s fingers tightened, and she hastily said, “The imperial doctors in the palace have said that it was due to anger, and her pulse also showed signs of excessive liver fire...”

Shen Ruojing slowly walked over to the body. “It’s just a pulse diagnosis. I suggest sending the body directly to the forensic department for an autopsy.” However, as soon as she said this, Mother Luo’s face changed drastically. “No!”

The head of the Luo family also angrily yelled, “This is... going too far! Going too far!

Shen Ruojing looked at them puzzledly.

Princess Consort Yan “kindly” explained to her, “Your Highness, you grew up in China since you were young, and you might not be familiar with some customs in Country A. Here, we emphasize burial for the dead, and everyone is buried in the ground to ensure the integrity of the body after death. An autopsy would be the greatest insult and disrespect to her.

The head of the Luo family’s gaze was gloomy, and he angrily said, “Consort Luo indeed had a bad temper and had offended you without knowing your identity, but there is no need to humiliate her like this when she’s already dead...”

Mother Luo cried even more miserably.

Listening to their words, Shen Ruojing rubbed her temples with a headache. “So, you just want your daughter to die like this without knowing the reason?” Mother Luo was stunned.

Shen Ruojing continued persuasively, “Have you ever heard of young people being easily angered to death? Consort Luo indeed had a bad temper, but she looked healthy. Would she really die from anger? Don’t you want to know the real cause of her death?”

With every mention of dying from anger and having a bad temper, the head of the Luo family became increasingly furious. He yelled, “She’s already dead! Why do you continue to humiliate her?!”

Shen Ruojing sighed. “I’m not humiliating her; I’m just being realistic.”

Mother Luo then looked at Shen Qianhui, who was sitting on the platform.

Her daughter had been angered to death by Shen Qianhui, yet now Shen Qianhui could sit high on the platform, receiving their kneeling salutes.

Moreover, because of the child in her belly, she couldn’t be punished at all!

Why?!

Suddenly, Mother Luo looked at Shen Ruojing, clenched her fists, and asked,

‘Your Highness, are you sure my daughter didn’t die from anger?”

Shen Ruojing nodded. ‘Whether she did or not, we can find out the truth after an autopsy.”

Mother Luo sneered. “Performing an autopsy is not impossible...”

The head of the Luo family immediately looked at Mother Luo and said, “Have you gone mad?” This chapter is updated by ɴovelFɪre.net

Mother Luo lowered her gaze. “However, in Country A, an autopsy is considered the greatest disrespect to the deceased. If Your Highness performs an autopsy and finds that my daughter died from anger, can you promise me one condition?”

Shen Ruojing slowly asked, “What condition?”

Mother Luo spoke up, “l want you to perform the ritual of kowtowing three times and bowing nine times in front of my daughter’s tombstone, declaring to the world, as a way to repent for the sins of you and your mother!’

This was a complete slap in the face of the royal family!

Princess Consort Yan immediately stepped forward and held Shen Ruojing’s arm. “Your Highness, you must not agree! Doing so would tell the whole nation that you and your mother have committed a grave mistake, and both your position as the princess and your mother’s position will be lost!”

The Queen Dowager frowned and scolded, “Nonsense!”

Making a princess kneel and bow three times and kowtow nine times to a deceased consort?

This was simply humiliating!

Moreover, Shen Ruojing was the only child of Emperor Jing Zhen. If something happened to the child in Shen Qianhui’s womb, Shen Ruojing’s son might be the future crown prince candidate. If she did this and lost her position as a princess, how could Chu Yu inherit the throne?!

In this instant, Queen Dowager thought a lot.

But Mother Luo stared at Shen Ruojing. “Since you want to humiliate my daughter’s body like this, what’s the problem with me doing this to you? Your Highness, do you dare to promise me?!”

Shen Ruojing narrowed her eyes, and after a while, she smiled. “l dare.

The two words made everyone present slightly shocked.

Emperor Jing Zhen stood up and ordered the guards beside him. “Call the forensic doctor!’

‘Yes.”

Soon, a forensic doctor was led in.

When Princess Consort Yan saw the forensic doctor, she sighed with relief.

The forensic doctor’s scalpel then cut through Luo Consort’s abdomen and chest, revealing her intact heart.

After examining it, the forensic doctor said to the Queen Dowager, “Consort Luo indeed died from anger. She received a strong stimulus when she was angry, which excessively activated the sympathetic adrenal system. This then released large amounts of adrenaline and noradrenaline, causing blood lipid levels to rise, activating platelets, promoting plaque rupture, and inducing thrombus formation. All of this led to a heart attack...”

Upon hearing this, Shen Ruojing narrowed her eyes slightly.

Princess Consort Yan sighed. “This... forensic doctor, quickly sew up Luo

Consort’s abdomen... it’s really too damaging to her dignity...”

As soon as she finished speaking, Mother Luo shouted, “Your Highness, do you see it now? My daughter was indeed killed by anger! What else do you have to say?!

The Queen Dowager frowned and looked at Shen Ruojing with disdain.

Wasn’t this woman quite smart when she was in China?

How did she end up causing trouble when she arrived in Country A?!

She then glanced at Princess Consort Yan.

Princess Consort Yan stepped forward. “Family Leader Luo, Matriarch Luo, the princess just wanted to clear Consort Shen of the charges, and she was too eager. Don’t be angry. This matter is indeed our royal family’s fault...”

Mother Luo pushed her away. “Don’t play the good person here. The princess just promised me. She can’t go back on her word, can she?!”

Family Leader Luo also took a stand. “The princess must give our Luo family an explanation!’

Shen Ruojing’s gaze fell on the body, and she frowned.

(Something’s not right...)

When she took the pulse, she noticed that Consort Luo’s pulse was abnormal, and it was impossible for her to have died from anger. It was normal for the imperial doctors not to find out, but how could the forensic doctor be wrong?!

She then looked at Princess Consort Yan, only to see her exchanging a glance with the forensic doctor.

Shen Ruojing immediately understood.

The Queen Dowager also coughed and was about to speak, but saw Shen Ruojing swiftly walk to the body in a few steps, grabbing the forensic doctor’s hand.. “What is this?”
