The Abandoned Wife of a Military Family: Your disguise has been exposed again.

Chapter 185 Avoiding Suspicion
Yunwei can also perform autopsies, but in the Wei Kingdom, only coroners with qualifications granted by the Ministry of Justice can perform such tasks. Given her current situation, even if she could perform an autopsy, she would have to avoid suspicion.

However, the coroner's findings were almost exactly what she had expected.

"So, Miss Yun was murdered last night at 9 PM?" Liu Qian asked after the coroner finished his examination.

“That’s right.” The coroner nodded.

Yun Wei said, "Yesterday I took people to the outskirts to look for Yun Yao. We returned to the city around 3:45 pm. After that, I did not leave the city again. The soldiers at the city gate can testify for me that I took many people to look for Yun Yao and was stopped and questioned by the soldiers."

Yun Yao's body was found in the moat outside the city, indicating that she was murdered outside the city. According to the coroner's examination, Yun Yao died at 11:45 PM last night, when I was at the county princess's residence and had already retired for the night.

Liu Qian nodded, "Based on this evidence, the county magistrate can indeed be ruled out as a suspect."

“She said she was already in bed when Yun Yao died, but who knows if she secretly slipped out again after returning to her room? She was highly skilled in martial arts, and even though the city gates were closed, it would have been an easy thing for her to leave the city,” Yun Yueshan said, frowning.

Yun Wei sneered, "Are you really going to pin Yun Yao's death on me? Last night, at the end of the 7 PM hour, I was still drinking tea at the Regent's Palace. Do you think I'm so powerful that I could split myself up and go out of the city to kill Yun Yao?"

Yunyue Mountain was speechless.

"My lord, I've already said that Yao Yao's death has nothing to do with Weiwei. Why don't you believe her?" Madam Xu frowned, her tone tinged with reproach.

Yun Yueshan remained silent, looking dejected.

"Now that it has been proven that Yun Yao's death has nothing to do with me, I would like to ask Lord Liu to issue a notice to clarify things for me," Yun Wei said, turning to Liu Qian.

"That's only right," Liu Qian nodded in agreement.

"Furthermore, we hope that the true culprits who killed Yun Yao and her servant will be apprehended as soon as possible and brought to justice," Yun Wei continued.

Speaking of this matter, Liu Qian felt a bit of a headache.

Now, although the deaths of Yun Yao and her servant can be ruled out as unrelated to the county princess, the real culprit has not left any clues. Where is he supposed to go to apprehend him?
"This humble official... will certainly do his utmost." That was all he could say.

Now that everything was settled, he didn't linger and took his leave with the coroner and clerk.

Yunwei wasn't in a hurry to leave. She remembered something and asked Madam Xu, "On Father's birthday night, did you mention to him that you wanted to send Yunyao out of the capital first?"

Xu had long regretted this matter, because Yun Yao had an accident the day after she proposed it to Yun Yueshan.

When Yunwei asked, she hesitated for a moment before nodding and saying, "Yes."

"Which maid was on night duty in your courtyard that night?" Yunwei asked in turn.

"That night..." Madam Xu thought for a moment before remembering, "It seems to have been Chunlan. What happened?"

“You only brought this up with Father that night, and the next day, Yun Yao went to Putuo Temple to offer incense. It was also on that day that she was kidnapped,” Yun Wei said calmly.

"What is the relationship between these two?" Xu asked, puzzled.

"Yun Yao went to offer incense and was kidnapped because she knew her parents were going to send her away, but she didn't want to leave the capital," Yun Wei said.

"So, you mean that Yun Yao's kidnapping was all staged by herself, just so she wouldn't leave the capital? And that Chunlan told her that her parents were going to send her away?" Yun Qi immediately realized what was going on.

“That’s right.” Yun Wei nodded.

"She's already dead, why won't you let her go? Why insist on framing her?" Yun Yueshan roared. Madam Xu, realizing what was happening, also refused to believe it. "Weiwei, are you mistaken? Yun Yao wouldn't do such a thing. And if she orchestrated it herself, why would she let herself die?"

"That's because the person who helped her never intended to let her go. She was just stupid enough to conspire with a tiger without realizing it," Yun Wei said.

"Stop talking nonsense here and get out!" Yun Yueshan pointed to the door and said in an icy voice.

"My lord, what are you doing?" Madam Xu quickly pulled him back.

Yunwei said nonchalantly, "If you want to prove my innocence, even if you ask me, I won't come." After saying that, she walked away leisurely.

Madam Xu hurriedly sent Yunqi to chase after them.

Ms. Qi, heavily pregnant, walked slowly.

When she reached the gate of the mansion, Yun Wei had already left, and only Yun Qi was standing there.

"What did Weiwei say? Did she leave any message?" Madam Qi stepped forward and asked.

Yun Qi sighed, "She didn't say anything, she just left."

Thinking of Yun Yueshan's attitude, Qi sighed.

When Yun Yao was alive, her father-in-law doted on her. Now that she was dead, he felt even more sorry for her and couldn't stand anyone saying anything bad about her, even if it was true. Instead, he wanted to blame Yun Yao's death on Yun Wei.

This would make anyone feel bad.

Moreover, Yunwei had never received any affection from her father-in-law; all she had ever experienced was heartbreak.

If it were her, she wouldn't want to stay in this house any longer either.

It has to be said that Yun Yao's self-directed kidnapping not only made her father-in-law and mother-in-law feel sorry for her, but also caused Yun Wei to bear so much.

It can be said that she achieved her goal.

But no matter how much she schemed, what good did it do? In the end, she still lost her own life.

Was all of this worth it?
She probably never imagined that she would end up losing her life.
Did she regret it at the moment she died?
After sighing for a while, Madam Qi followed Yun Qi into the mansion.

Remembering what Yunwei had said, she immediately had someone summon Chunlan.

On the first day after Yun Yao disappeared, after listening to Yun Wei's analysis and learning that Yun Yao knew her father-in-law and mother-in-law were going to send her away, she had planned to expose the informant. However, she was too busy and forgot about it for a moment.

Only after Yunwei reminded her today did she realize that there was still one troublemaker she hadn't dealt with.

As soon as Chunlan arrived, Madam Qi said coldly, word by word, "The Third Miss is dead. She was killed by you."

Chunlan was startled and immediately knelt down, her face pale, and said, "Please don't wrong me, Madam. The Third Miss was clearly killed by the Second Miss."

"Nonsense!" Madam Qi slammed her hand on the table. "It was clearly because of you, you wretched servant, that the Third Miss went to the temple to burn incense and then conspired with thugs to stage a kidnapping. If it weren't for your nonsense, the Third Miss wouldn't have died!"

When Chunlan learned of Yunyao's death, she was already filled with fear and anxiety. Now, when the young master's wife confronted her, she was immediately terrified and collapsed to the ground, tears streaming down her face. She said, "I only told the Third Miss that she was going to be sent away and asked her to find a way to stay. I didn't know that the Third Miss would do something so extreme. If I had known, I would never have told her..."
