The Empress Dowager was extremely sad and asked the emperor to take King Rui's body back to the capital.Yan Chi immediately set out to welcome his father's coffin.Qin Guan used the bone steaming method to inspect the male corpse in the Jin Palace. At the same time, Yan Chi rushed to Shuoxi and met his father's personal guard Fan Xin. Fan Xin blamed himself in pain for failing to protect King Rui. Yan Chi said that he would definitely avenge his father.
Qin Guan discovered that the cause of death of the deceased was that he was hit on the head with a blunt weapon, and the deceased had suffered multiple abuses and beatings during his lifetime. It was speculated that the identity of the deceased might be related to the King of Jin's Mansion. He suggested that Zheng Baishi and Li Muyun look for clues from the list of guards and servants of the King of Jin's Mansion.However, Li Muyun revealed that the identity of the deceased may be Song Xiwen, a person who should have been detained in the Imperial Examination Department, which shocked Qin Wan.
