After being replaced, she changed from a miserable daughter-in-law to a lucky wife

Chapter 526 Look carefully

Rouyue kowtowed to Wei Zhen and said, "Sir, this involves a woman's reputation. I'm sorry I can't say anything."

Wei Zhen frowned: "Rou, this concerns your life and death."

Rouyue lay on the ground: "If you must know, please ask the coroner to verify the cause of Miss Hu's death."

Xia Wanniang looked at the woman covered with white cloth on the ground, her eyes filled with dark and unclear emotions.

Wei Zhen asked someone to invite a coroner.

The coroner saluted towards Wei Zhen, then lifted the white cloth and began to perform an autopsy on Miss Hu.

"Madam, Miss Hu looks very pale." Xuan Qing said in a low voice.

Xia Wanniang nodded in agreement: "What else did you see?"

Xuan Qing watched the coroner start to check from the head, "It seems like she just changed her clothes."

"Why do you think so?" Xia Wanniang looked at Xuan Qing with some curiosity.

Xuan Qing: "If I were sick and resting in bed at home, I wouldn't be dressed so neatly."

Xia Wanniang asked back, "If it's for the sake of a woman's reputation, what if you let her wear it before you send it to her?"

Xuan Qing thought about it seriously: "It's possible, but why not put on shoes?"

Xia Wanniang looked at Miss Hu's body and found that she was indeed not wearing shoes: "It's quite strange."

The coroner had already examined her fingers and found that her nails were broken, with some silk threads or something like that hooked out from the broken part.

He carefully removed these things with tweezers, placed them on a tray aside, and then began to check other places.

When he examined Miss Hu's abdomen, he found something different and pressed it gently.

But he was a little unsure, so he turned around and bowed to Wei Zhen: "Sir, I would like to ask the midwife to help check it."

Wei Zhen nodded and asked the bailiffs to carry Miss Hu's body to the back court. A midwife was also invited into the back court.

Zhu Yao pulled Xia Wanniang's sleeve and said, "Husband, Madam."

Xia Wanniang turned to look at her: "What's wrong?"

"Taste...taste...not...right." Zhu Yao tried to figure it out for a long time before saying it.

Xia Wanniang became interested: "What does it smell like?"

"There is...there is...the smell of saffron...and it's very...very light." Zhu Yao tried hard to finish the sentence.

The other children's brains became active. The coroner examined the abdomen and found the problem. He asked the midwife to help check. Then they heard what Zhu Yao said.

"Mother, this Miss Hu..."

"Shh!" Xia Wanniang made a gesture to silence everyone: "Watch carefully and see if the final result is the same as you thought. Observe carefully."

The children stopped talking and began to look at the yamen lobby seriously.

After a while, the midwife came out, bowed to Wei Zhen, and then left.

A bailiff whispered a few words into Wei Zhen's ear and then retreated.

Wei Zhen looked at the coroner and nodded at him.

The coroner understood: "Sir, after my examination, Miss Hu died of excessive blood loss."

Boss Hu and Mrs. Hu looked incredulous: "How, how is it possible? How could my daughter die of excessive blood loss?"

The coroner looked at the two of them and said, "Your daughter is pregnant. Did you know that? She took a lot of blood-activating and blood-stasis-removing drugs, which caused heavy bleeding."

"No, it's impossible. My daughter is still a virgin. How, how could she be pregnant? You must have done a wrong test." Mrs. Hu shook her head in disbelief.

Wei Zhen summoned the midwife who had just performed the autopsy: "What was the result of your examination?"

"Your Excellency, Miss Hu is no longer virgin and is showing signs of miscarriage." The midwife replied seriously.

Madam Hu looked at Rouyue and said, "It was you. You must have given my daughter the medicine. You killed her. Return my daughter's life to me."

After she finished speaking, she was about to tear Rouyue apart, but was held down by the bailiffs.

Rouyue looked at Mrs. Hu calmly and said, "Ms. Hu knew she was pregnant and wanted to abort the baby without letting anyone know. I didn't agree."

She paused and continued, "But I promised to keep it a secret for her. Now it's not a secret anymore, and I don't have to hide it for her."

As she spoke, she looked at the four maids kneeling over there and said, "I think they know what's going on better than me."

After saying this, Rouyue knelt down straight and stopped talking.
