Chapter 562 - 562: Not Dead



As expected, the emperor’s expression changed. He asked Ning Yue, “Why are you telling me this?”

“You’ll know when you hear it.” After saying this, Ning Yue continued to talk about the professional terms in forensic science.

In short, Ning Yue had a different attitude towards the emperor’s death this time.

“Algor mortis usually occurs between one and two hours. Livor mortis usually occurs between two and four hours after death. Rigor mortis usually occurs between one and three hours after death. It spreads throughout the body in four to six hours. The peak is reached in twelve to sixteen hours. After twenty-four hours, the rigor mortis weakens and the muscles soften. It’s called rigor mortis relief.”

After saying this, Ning Yue stopped. She felt that it was enough to say this. No matter how deep it was, there was no need for the emperor to understand more.

As long as he could understand what she had said before, that was enough.

The emperor thought for a long time and finally reacted. According to Ning Yue, his father should be having rigor mortis at this time because 12 to 16 hours was the peak of the development of rigor mortis.

But now, his father still looked asleep. There was no pulse and his temperature had dropped. This was not right.

Ning Yue did not say anything. She left time for the emperor to digest this information. After thinking for a while, she said, “I’m sorry, Your Majesty. If I want to take the Retired Emperor’s pulse, I might be disrespectful to him.”

“You can do whatever you want,” the emperor said.

Actually, there was nothing disrespectful with Ning Yue’s words of in-depth pulse diagnosis. She just placed her hand on her neck to check the artery.

However, in ancient times, touching the Retired Emperor’s neck was indeed a great disrespect in the eyes of the royal family, so Ning Yue had to say it in advance.

Since the emperor had allowed it, she could do as she pleased. At the thought of this, Ning Yue reached out to feel the Retired Emperor’s pulse and pressed her ear to his left chest.

Seeing Ning Yue’s expression, Jiang Ying’s feelings became even more complicated.

In all fairness, not to mention him, even the crown prince could not press his face against someone who everyone thought was dead.

However, because Ning Yue had doubts, she did so without hesitation.

Soon, Ning Yue’s expression became more and more serious. She straightened up and said to the emperor and Jiang Ying, “The Retired Emperor isn’t dead.” What? Hearing this, the emperor and Jiang Ying were shocked. “Are you serious? Father isn’t dead?”

Ning Yue nodded. “Yes, the emperor’s heartbeat is weak. There’s also a faint pulse on the artery on his neck. It’s not very obvious.”

“There’s poison, but this poison doesn’t seem to be the kind we’re thinking of. This poison can make people look dead. If we don’t check carefully, we won’t be able to find out if their hearts are beating.”

Ning Yue had also listened for a long time before she realized the Retired Emperor’s weak heartbeat.

The emperor’s expression became worse and worse. They all thought that the Retired Emperor had passed away and would not investigate thoroughly. Then, the Retired Emperor would have entered the tomb alive and did not see the light of day.

He did not dare to imagine what his father would do if that happened.

“Fortunately, I have you,” the emperor said with lingering fear.

If Ning Yue hadn’t discovered it, he would really have become a sinner.

Ning Yue did not say anything. She had no idea how to examine the Retired Emperor.

She wondered if blood extraction and instrumentation could detect the root cause.

Ning Yue sighed heavily and pretended to take out the first aid kit, but in fact, she took out blood drawing items and some medical equipment from her space.

After a while, Ning Yue realized that this thing was actually not considered poison.

Since it was not poison, there was no need for an antidote.

The emperor asked nervously, “Why don’t you use the antidote?”

“Time is needed for the medicine to take effect, which is five days later. During this period, we have to ensure the Retired Emperor’s nutrition,” Ning Yue said.

This was not difficult. He just needed a nutritional injection or something. There were these things in the space.

In order to ensure the safety of the Retired Emperor, Ning Yue thought for a while and decided to stay with Jiang Ying. At the very least, she would wait for him to wake up to prevent anything from happening again.

Days passed, and it was already the sixth day. The medicinal effect had slightly decreased.

If Ning Yue had not discovered this problem, no one would have taken the Retired Emperor’s pulse after confirming his death.

However, Ning Yue could not figure out who would want to harm the Retired Emperor. What was the benefit of harming the Retired Emperor?

Saying something disrespectful would harm the emperor more than harm the Retired Emperor..
