Chi Ping nodded gently and looked at the river, "Your Highness, the wind is blowing. Will the Chi family be the second Lu family?"

Zhou Xian shook his head, "No."

Chi Ping did not answer the conversation, and the two stood quietly for a long time.

"Do you know the chicks?" Zhou Xian said suddenly.

"Tonight Changkang will send someone to you. He is a little unconscious, like a child, but he is a person with origin and will be of great use in the future. You can take him with him." Zhou Xian tightened his cloak tightly, coughed a few times, and walked towards the mountain.

Chi Ping looked at his back, saluted respectfully, and said in a deep voice, "No."

When Chi Ping returned to the yamen, she saw a pool sitting cross-legged in a corner of the courtyard drinking tea. There was a charcoal basin on her feet, which was burning brightly. She got a small ball of table from somewhere and put some special tea fruits from Shengping.

The case was not yet settled, and the surroundings were in a mess, except for him sitting there alone, as if in his back garden.

Chi Ping walked over with a embarrassed face. Chi Shi didn't feel embarrassed. What's wrong with his brother's face?

"Brother Ninth, don't you feel uncomfortable?" Chi Ping lowered his head, looked at Sishui, and hurriedly shrank to Chi Shi's side.

Chi Shi handed him, it was wrong, he should have stuffed him a tea fruit.

"The people who lie and make my brother wait here don't feel uncomfortable. What's so uncomfortable about me who is so honest and upright?"

Chi Ping was a little embarrassed, "My ninth brother follows me. In this county government, I have a small house. Although it is a bit shabby, I can at least avoid the cold."

Chi Shi stood up. If possible, who would like to sit in the courtyard in the coldest days?

He was going to return to Beijing, but Sheng Ping had a lot of things to do, and Chi Ping's coroner must be unable to escape. She had some questions and had to ask clearly before she could have the intention to investigate the case next to her.

Chi Ping did not lie. It was indeed a very small room with books piled up. After two people entered, they felt very crowded.

"My ninth brother, please forgive me. My brother did not deliberately hide anything. Song'er's affairs were indeed because Zhang Xiaonian was too arrogant and had no choice but to lie. Song'er was no different from my parents and children in my heart."

Chi Shi frowned, "Who told you this? What I want to ask is, you are the coroner of the Chi family, why don't you know every question? Have you never seen the compulsory homework for the coroner of the Chi family?"

"You keep saying that you are interested in this, but I don't think so. The Chi family has many waste coroners, not one of you. If you feel forced, just go home and lie down as soon as possible, just like my father."

Chi Ping twitched, "You used to be in Youhai, did you say that to other brothers?"

Why don’t they beat you to death? Don’t you know that you are ranked ninth?

Chi Shi glanced at him in confusion, "To be honest, what's the problem? Brothers all think I'm right."

Chi Shi said, his voice becoming low, "Some people think coroners are very low-key and prosecutors are very small, but they are the first person to come into contact with the murder case. Coroners and prosecutors do not act like humans, close their eyes and examine the autopsy, and arrest people randomly. However, Liu's conscience is not eaten by dogs..."

What coroners do is very small, but for the victims, it is their only chance to speak out.

After hearing this, Chi Ping smiled bitterly, "Tell me the truth, don't scold me. Lu Song's father is classmates with me. You know, the Chi family did not have such a rule before, saying that there must be at least one male in every room to be a coroner."

"My grandmother competed with her aunt back then. She was born in the Marquis' Mansion and wanted to change the Chi family through the imperial examination. She looked down on those who were coroners and felt that they had no future. Her grandfather believed that the Chi family had today because of being coroners and could not lose their ancestors' foundation..."

Chi Shi listened and nodded, it was true. After the old lady gave birth to her first two sons, she devoted herself to letting them study, but she did not learn coroner, and her relationship with Mr. Chi became increasingly tense.

In this war, it was obvious that Mr. Chi won. The Chi family had an extra family rule, and there must be a man in each room to be a coroner.

"You know, we have three children in the family. The eldest brother and the eighth brother are both born from their legitimate mothers, but I am the only one of the concubines, so I can't escape. The ninth brother is smart, so I'm embarrassed to lie to you."

He said, sighed, and took out a copy of "Doctor of the Mean" from the wooden rack and handed it to Chi, "Your ninth brother, you understand at first glance."

Chi Shi took the book and opened it to see that the small characters on it were written neatly, almost all the blanks of the book were written, which were the annotations and experiences of the book.

"It's quite insightful, this book is very suitable for you," Chi Shi said with a pun and returned the book to Chi Ping.

She had seen Chi Ying's books, Chi Ping was not as good as Chi Ying, but she was much better than ordinary people.

Chi Ping took the book and stuffed it back randomly. He lowered his head in shame, "I have many elder brothers, and my mother is unwilling to let me stand up. The ninth brother is born by the legitimate son. I don't know how much the concubine's son is at home."

"At that time, I was arrogant and smart in other families. I had the ability to get a title on the list. I wish I could cut my flesh and blood and offer him out, leading the whole family to stand out."

"But our Chi family is not short of money, so why should we stick to the rules and cut off my only chance to turn things around? I feel sorry for Zhang Xiaonian because looking at him is like seeing a dream that he has not completed, but it's a pity that he..."

Chi Ping said and sighed, "Before the Lu family was destroyed, I didn't want to be a coroner at all. I lived a daze, thinking that one day I could be like my second uncle, and I could achieve great things late and get high school in one go."

"My mother was happy to see me like this. The Lu family was destroyed, and Lu Song's sister Lu Hui escaped. She knew that I had been classmates with her father and was a close friend. She knew that I was a coroner and asked me to go for an autopsy."

"She looked at my eyes like a sharp blade, which directly pierced the illusion of my imagination over the years... At that time, I thought, it would be great if I were the Ninth Brother..."

Chi Shi snorted, Chi Ping had already burst into tears at some point.

"What are you thinking? If you have broken big stones on your chest for nine consecutive years, Youhai will not have a second one if you count five hundred years ahead and five hundred years later!"

Chi Ping laughed out loud.

"As you cry and laugh, you build a stove, and the stove collapses... Your illusion has been exposed for so long, and you have learned this way. I think you are better off as a coroner, and you will continue to lie down!"

"What about your Chi family? Why don't you understand?"

Chi Ping instantly cried and said, "It's burned."
