Chapter 41: My body is weak
Old Man Shi took two steps forward, "You mean my grandson was thrown into the well?"

Nan Xi opened Xiaodong's tightly clenched right hand and picked up a piece of cloth.

"This should be torn from a person. If he can't think about it, why is he holding this?" Nan Xi looked at Shi Jia's parents-in-law very puzzledly: "Besides, a six-year-old child, how can you think Would he be suicidal?"

This is almost impossible.

Mrs. Shi's eyes flashed when she saw the piece of cloth in Nan Xi's hand, and then she lowered her head and continued to cry.

"My grandson! How do you want grandma to live?"

Nan Xi stood up, handed the strip of cloth in his hand to Xia Rui behind him, and then said: "Take Xiaodong's body back."

The wife of the Shi family refused to let him go: "Where are you going to take my grandson? He is already dead, and you still want to torment him and prevent him from being buried in peace?"

After saying that, he slapped his thighs and started crying.

"My grandson...how come you are a short-lived person like your father..."

Nan Xi frowned, but before he could say anything, Li Qingmo made a gesture.

Lan Jue stepped forward and pulled Shi's mother-in-law away, and then together with Xia Rui, they lifted Xiaodong's body sideways.

Mrs. Shi's wife still wanted to stop her, but as soon as she stood up, she met Li Qingmo's cold eyes that seemed to have no warmth at all.

"The king now suspects the cause of the child's death and has taken him back for autopsy. If you are worried, you can follow him, but if you dare to stop him, you will be punished with the same crime as the murderer."

The Shi family's wife was so frightened that she didn't dare to say a word. She took two steps back and poked Old Shi with her elbow. The two exchanged glances and followed him to Jing Zhaoyin.

In the morgue, Xiaodong was lying next to Mi Yingping's body. The two corpses were only one step away. Nan Xi looked at the mother and son and couldn't help but sigh.

"Don't worry, I will definitely help you find the real cause of your son's death so that you can reunite safely underground."

Nan Xi took off Xiaodong's clothes and found no external injuries, but there were knocks on the back of his ankle and the back of his head.

"My lord, look."

She spoke subconsciously, and then remembered to ask Li Qingmo to stay outside.

Just when he was about to change his name to Xia Rui and Lan Jue, he heard footsteps approaching behind him. When he turned his head, he saw Li Qingmo's face.

His voice was very soft, as if he was afraid of scaring Nan Xi: "What did you find?"

Nan Xi pointed at Xiaodong's mouth and nose and said: "There is sand and foam in his nose and mouth. There are light spots on his body. His skin has shrunk to the shape of chicken skin. The surface is white. There are foreign objects in his nails. They should be in the water." Struggling and clinging to the four walls of the well."

Li Qingmo understood, "It was drowning."

Nan Xi nodded: "Yes, but he had bruises on the back of his head and ankles. Combined with the cloth strip he was holding in his hand, I suspect that he was pushed in and caught the moment he fell. He grabbed the murderer's clothes and tore them off."

In the lobby, Li Qingmo was sitting at the top, while the Shi family's parents-in-law and their eldest son and daughter-in-law were kneeling on the ground.

"Meet the Regent."

Li Qingmo's eyes swept between the four people, and finally stopped on Shi Daru and his wife Zhang.

"Who are you Mi Yingping?" Li Qingmo asked.

"Yes..." Shi Daru spoke subconsciously, and then continued after a pause: "She is a commoner's sister-in-law."

Mrs. Zhang echoed, "Yes, she is my sister-in-law."

"Where's Shi Xiaodong?"

"Yes...he is Cao Min's nephew." Shi Daru's tone was a little strange.

Li Qingmo took another look at him and asked, "Both mother and son are dead, do you know?"

Mrs. Zhang wiped away her unnoticeable tears and said, "A commoner woman got pregnant, and she and her husband went to worship Guanyin to fulfill her wish. I just heard about it when I came back."

【What a coincidence. ] Nan Xi had doubts, [If you don’t go early, you may wish to go later, but at this time? 】

Li Qingmo looked at Zhang: "When did you go?"

Zhang: "Yesterday at Chenshi."

"When did you find out about Youxi?" Nan Xi suddenly asked.

Zhang glanced at her, with obvious hesitation in his tone, his eyes flickered, and he glanced at Shi Daru beside him. The two exchanged glances, and then replied: "A few days ago."

Nan Xi frowned: "I knew you were happy a few days ago, why didn't you think about fulfilling your wish until yesterday?"

Mrs. Zhang was stunned by the question, and Mrs. Shi's wife answered it for her. "Because she was suffering from severe nausea, we were worried about letting her go. Later, we used a folk remedy and the symptoms of depression were gone. We just left yesterday."

Shi Daru and Mr. Zhang nodded repeatedly: "Yes, that's it."

[Why are these people reacting so strangely? 】

Nan Xi looked at Li Qingmo.

Li Qingmo also looked over and said, "Ask whatever you want."

His tone and eyes seemed to be doting.

Nan Xi once suspected that he had seen it wrong.

[Why is the villain suddenly so gentle? 】

[Forget it, let’s not think about it for now, business is more important. 】

Nan Xi said "yes", and then asked Mrs. Shi's wife: "What folk remedy did you use?"

Mrs. Shi's mother-in-law hesitated and couldn't speak, and a layer of sweat appeared on her nervous forehead.

The old man Shi next to her had been looking at her with strange eyes since just now. His honest face could not hide his words. It was obvious that this so-called folk remedy did not exist at all.

At the very least, Old Man Shi, as one of the family members, was unaware.

Nan Xi asked Zhang again: "What's the folk remedy?"

But Mrs. Zhang suddenly held her stomach, looking very painful: "It hurts, my stomach hurts so much."

Shi Daru and the Shi family's parents-in-law immediately became nervous.

"Oops, maybe it's fetal force!"

"I must have been kneeling for too long."

"I was scared!"

Each of the three people has an explanation.

Nan Xi walked over: "Don't worry, I am the doctor."

She knelt down and held Zhang's wrist, feeling her pulse.

Zhang's eyes flashed frequently and he winked at Shi Daru.

Shi Daru pulled her hand back.

"No need, let's just go find the doctor."

Mrs. Shi's wife also nodded: "Yes, she has an old problem. She will be fine if she goes back to take some folk remedies and rest."

Li Qingmo: "My king is weak and she is responsible for the treatment. You can rest assured."

After saying that, someone helped Ms. Zhang to the room in the back hall and asked her to lie on the bed.

Zhang's nervous body was tense, and she clutched Shi Daru's hand tightly and refused to let go.

Shi Daru was a little anxious: "What does Mi's death have to do with us? She deserves it. What is in my wife's belly now is the only seedling of our Mi family. If there is fetal force, I..."

Nan Xi raised his head lightly: "What's the fuss about?"

Her eyes were serious and a little cold, and her voice was not loud, but it was very intimidating.

Then she took her hand back and said, "She just has abdominal pain caused by menstruation. It's not a problem."

The three historians were shocked.

"what?"

"Message?"

"how can that be!"

Even Mrs. Zhang sat up in shock, "How can I have menstruation when I'm pregnant? You are simply a quack!"
