The case of Princess Ying is top secret. Even if the palace has had a big uproar, very few people know about this news. Originally, Di Renjie should not have leaked the case to outsiders, but Zhang Zong was originally an insider, and Di Renjie also hoped that Zhang Zong could provide him with some help, so he still explained the case he learned in detail.

Princess Ying was detained in the prison of the Escort Province. The cells in the palace were different from those in the outside world. They did not have any iron fences, but were a very closed room. The doors were usually locked and must not be opened. There was a small door under the door, and the guards would usually put food in from here.

Because of Wu Meiniang's intentional harshness, all the food given to Princess Ying by the guards was raw, and the guards delivered food for one day at a time, and they no longer cared about it after giving it. Until later, they didn't hear any movement in the cell for several days, and the food handed over by the little door did not move at all. This felt that something was wrong. As a result, when the door was opened, the body was already smelly.

"I can't figure it out yet. Princess Ying was detained for a total of ten days, and the body had already started to rot when she was discovered. The weather is no longer as hot as before, and it will take several days for the body to rot. In other words, Princess Ying might have died just a few days after being in the cell, but she died after only a few days of hunger. This is too fast, right?"

Di Renjie finally showed a puzzled expression. Princess Ying was less than 20 years old. Such a young person usually has no big problem even if he was hungry for a few days. Moreover, although the food given by the guards was raw, if he was really hungry, raw food could actually be eaten, but it was not easy to digest.

Zhang Zong was also very surprised after hearing this. It was the first time he knew these details. According to common sense, it was indeed impossible to starve people to death for only a few days, but the other party died, which was a bit strange.

"Did Princess Ying have some illness? She fell ill during her detention and died because no one was taking care of her?" Zhang Zong thought for a moment before giving his own guess.

"I have asked, and I even personally asked to meet Princess Changle. As the saying goes, "No matter how good is a woman, the eldest princess also insists that the princess has no illness, but is healthier than ordinary people. She rarely gets sick since she was a child." Di Renjie replied with a wry smile again, and he had thought of this a long time ago.

"Then we can only find clues from the corpse, but if the corpse cannot be destroyed, how can we perform the autopsy?" Zhang Zong smiled bitterly at the end of his speech.

In fact, it is very simple to find out whether Princess Ying was starved to death. She just needs to dissection and check whether there is food in her stomach. If there is no food, even if it is not starved to death, it may be caused by the disease caused by hunger. If there is food, the problem will be even greater. It is not even ruled out that the deceased was killed by someone using secret methods.

However, in ancient times, it was obvious that death was the most important thing for people, and it was obviously unacceptable to destroy corpses. If it were ordinary families, in order to investigate the case, they might also convince the relatives of the deceased to agree. For example, Xu Wei's body was opened with the consent of his son Xu Kuan, and then the coffin was opened for examination. But the person who died now was the emperor's daughter-in-law. For the sake of the royal face, it was absolutely impossible for someone to use a knife to cut the body open and inspect it.

"The requirements put forward in the palace are very harsh. Not only can the corpse be destroyed, but people in the palace must also supervise it when inspecting the corpse. We even have to send a woman to check the corpse. The man must not get close to you. Brother Zhang, where do I go to find an experienced woman to take a corpse?" Di Renjie smiled bitterly again.

"Is there a female doctor in the capital?" Zhang Zong thought about it and asked again.

"No, studying medicine requires proficiency in the human body structure, so even a family of medical science will not let women learn medicine." Di Renjie shook his head again. He was almost driven crazy by this case now. It was obviously a very simple case, but he just had no idea how to start.

"This is troublesome. If a person who does not understand medical skills, even if he starts learning the contents of the Shunting Records, he will probably find it difficult to learn anything in a while!" Zhang Zong shook his head and said when he heard this. Even if he is a time traveler, he really has no choice now.

"I heard that there are female officials in the palace who understand medical skills, but this matter involves the queen. I am afraid that even if the female officials in the palace will not dare to tell the truth!" Di Renjie sighed again. He wanted to become a woman now, which would save a lot of trouble.

"Huh? By the way!" Zhang Zong suddenly slammed his high-high at this moment, as if he had thought of something. He immediately looked at Di Renjie excitedly and said, "Wen Po, they often deliver women, they should all understand certain medical skills and have a good understanding of the structure of the human body. If they teach them some key points of autopsy, they should be competent for autopsy!"

"Full...Full?" Di Renjie looked incredible when he heard Zhang Zong's proposal. It was not a pity that he was shocked. After all, Feng Po delivered a baby for a woman, but now he asked Wen Po to take a mortal exam. One birth and the other death are all two extremes. If it weren't for Zhang Zong, he would probably not have thought of this idea no matter what.

"This... can this work? The wife gave birth to a child for others. If she went for an autopsy now, wouldn't she smash her signature? Will someone ask her to deliver her in the future?" Di Renjie said a little unacceptably.

"There must be a brave man under the heavy reward. Besides the stable mother, I really can't think of anyone who can be competent for the autopsy." Zhang Zong finally spread his hands.

In fact, there is no way to let Wenpo go for an autopsy, and he cannot destroy the body. He can only check the surface of the body. I guess nothing can be found in the end, but as long as there is a slight chance, he still cannot give up. What if he can really find any clues from the surface of the body?

Di Renjie hesitated for a while, and finally gritted his teeth and said, "Okay, I'll go find a private lady now, and I'll give it a try no matter what!"

After saying that, Di Renjie also stood up to inform him, and Zhang Zong also personally sent him out the door. Looking at Di Renjie who was leaving in a hurry, Zhang Zong couldn't help but sigh. Strictly speaking, this case was pushed into Di Renjie's hands. Unfortunately, he can only make some small suggestions now, and he doesn't know if he can help the other party?

In the next two days, Di Renjie did not appear again, but Xue Shao often ran to Zhang Zong, and he would bring some new news every time. However, it was new news, but in fact it was still the same. Princess Changle and others went to the palace to make trouble every day. Wu Meiniang refused to show up when she died, but she killed Princess Ying and committed suicide.

Princess Chengyang took this opportunity to play the family affection card. Not only did she not force Li Zhi to express her opinion, but she went to the palace from time to time to care about Li Zhi's health. She even made some dishes that Li Zhi liked and brought them into the palace, which made Li Zhi even more favored to this sister. Moreover, the more Princess Chengyang did not force him, the more Li Zhi was inclined to the side of Princess Changle.

During this period, Li Hong also looked for Zhang Zong again. Compared to Xue Shao, Li Hong learned more inside information. For example, he was sent by Li Zhi to persuade Princess Changle, but he was scolded a lot for this.

However, Li Hong was not angry, but was also very happy. It was not because Li Hong had any special hobbies, but because every time he was scolded, Princess Chengyang rescued him. This also means that his aunt had figured it out and began to turn to her side.

"Young master, come and have a meal. I've made the sweet and sour tenderloin you like!" As it was getting late, Wan'er's crisp voice came from the yard.

Zhang Zong also agreed, and immediately cleaned up the flower stall, then stepped into the small hall next to the kitchen. He saw that the food had been set on the table. In addition to the sweet and sour tenderloin, there was also one meat and two vegetables, and another soup. It has to be said that Wan'er's craftsmanship is better than that. As long as the guy who is picky to come and eats, he will definitely ask Wan'er to cook.

As soon as Zhang Zong sat down, Wan'er immediately sat obediently beside him and started serving the meal. However, Zhang Zong suddenly thought of something, so he smiled and said to Wan'er: "Yesterday I met the shopkeeper Wang Xiao of the ceramic shop. He said that the dog at home gave birth to a litter of puppies and asked me if I wanted it. I think it's good to raise a dog, what do you think?"

"Have a dog?" Wan'er frowned when she heard this, "Young master, do you like dogs very much?"

"No, it's just that I don't think you like going out normally and don't have any playmates, so I want to keep a dog to let you kill some time." Zhang Zong explained with a smile.

After spending time together, Zhang Zong found that although Wan'er was very polite to treat people and laughed before she saw the guests, in fact, this girl was not as cheerful as she was, and even a little closed. Except for Zhang Zong, she seemed to be extremely wary of outsiders. Even Xue Shao, who often came, she just maintained her superficial politeness, let alone made friends with other people.

"Thank you, young master, but Wan'er doesn't feel lonely in normal times. She can practice calligraphy and painting when she is free. In addition, she has so many flowers and plants at home. If there is a dog, she will definitely mess up the family. Of course, if the young master likes it, it doesn't matter if it is a single one!" Wan'er expressed her thoughts very tactfully.

Zhang Zong was quite helpless when he heard this. He was a quiet person and did not like to raise dogs. In comparison, raising flowers and fish, and even turtles were more suitable for him. The reason why he proposed this was just to use small animals to inspire Wan'er's love and cultivate her ability to get along with others, but unfortunately she didn't like it at all.

"That's it. If you want to raise any small animals in the future, you can take them home directly without discussing with me!" Zhang Zong had no choice but to say again. After saying that, he picked up the chopsticks and greeted Wan'er for dinner.
