Murong Yu sat down to drink tea and waited for the result.
The Palace servants had already prepared a cup of tea.
Doctor Li briefly spoke about the results of his inspection, and Shen Zhiyan put on his slim gloves and started the autopsy.

Murong Ci took out the silk cloth from her pocket and said,
