Novel Summary
Female Lead’s Perspective:
At five years old, Bó Ruò Yōu’s parents passed away. Her uncles looked for a Taoist Priest to divine her fate. Apparently, she was a woman who brought ill luck to her family and jinxed her father and mother, and it was asserted that she would die young, unable to live past the age of eighteen.
Under the banner of changing her fate, her uncles chased her out of the family door.
After she departed, her assets were seized, and her marriage contract was taken away. They wrested away everything, only waiting for her to die at eighteen.
They waited and waited, but before Bó Ruò Yōu even reached eighteen, what awaited them was how she used her corpse dissecting and bone examining skills to shake Jiangnan.
The influential and the nobility invited her to make the dead speak, the princes and marquises entreated her to redress an injustice for the living.
And behind her, also stood a man that could strike terror in the entirety of the Great Zhou Dynasty.
Male Lead’s Perspective:
Wielding the Embroidered Emissaries above, Assuming the Court of Punishments below.
The ruthless and intractable Huò Wēi Lóu had the power to subvert the courts and commons, but he snorted disdainfully at female charms.
Hence, on their first encounter, even if Bó Ruò Yōu came from an official family and possessed a matchless countenance, he still detested it like a worn-out shoe.
Later, after seeing her long, slender, and fair hands examining a female corpse in red robes, breaking past her ghosts and seizing back her life, clearing up the long-standing injustices of the past…
Huò Wēi Lóu: Truly fragrant, truly and genuinely fragrant!

Whoa, I just started reading and two people are already dead. How the deaths happened are still murky, with foul play suspected. The two main characters are involved with the investigation immediately and the plot gallops onwards from then on. It really has the vibe of an Agatha Christie mystery (albeit set in a historical Chinese dynasty setting), or Detective Conan/Case Closed. I haven't read a c-novel this tightly plotted in a while. I'm sure I wouldn't regret this one. Main genre here is obviously mystery, with romance just being a subplot.
Also, your brain better be online when you read this. Otherwise, it's going to be hard to follow the clues scattered like breadcrumbs that would solve the mysteries. It's par for the course for reading any mystery novels, I guess. Just saying. Of course, you can just read blithely and be prepared to be amazed every other page or so by the main characters' observations and conjectures, that's also a plausible way to read it 😅
Thanks for the warning, my brain went offline five years ago and never gone back on.
Can anyone tell me the name of this story? The plot is similar to this one. But her father is alive. She is an unfavorable daughter and her father is very dissatisfied with her bone dissection profession. If possible he won't even let her leave the house.She is a very good artist and can draw the portrait of dead only by touching the bones. She can also detect the death whether it was murder or natural death by looking at the bones. Ml is a official similar to modern day police. After seeing how professionally mc can handle these and can find out the reason of death he becomes interested in her because there is a case in his hand maybe his family matter where he needs her help. I had read only a few chapters and can't remember much there were two cases I remember . Ml met mc for the first time when she was drawing portrait of dead people burnt by fire accident. There was no way to identify who this corpse belong to. Another is a di daughter of a noble died from accident but she detected that it was murder because she was pushed down by her handmaid who did this as a revenge because the daughter had some kind of anger issue and to release the anger she used to whip the maids and the maid who killed her because when the daughter whipped her, at that time she was pregnant and she had miscarriage because of her. Perhaps lose the ability to give birth
