The Imperial Coroner

In the late Tang dynasty, a prestigious coroner exam welcomes an unusual contender: a talented young woman disguised in men's attire.

Chu Chu joins a knowledgeable prince to solve a tricky murder case, but a powerful eunuch is quietly undermining their efforts.

A forensic exam uncovers an oddity of Chu Chu's assailant. The duo rushes to the crime scene after the sudden death of another high-ranking official.

The investigation over Feng Shangshu's death gets increasingly complicated. After a run-in with Xiao Jinyu, Qin Luan furthers his ominous plan.

Against the Feng family's opposition, Jinyu fights for a chance to examine the victim's corpse. A key clue leads to a raid of a luxury restaurant.

As Xiao Jinyu inches closer to catching the elusive owner of Rugui Lou, he begins to notice a close family member might be hiding something from him.

The interrogation of two assassins exposes a crucial lead for the investigation. An old friend of Jinyu makes a hilarious introduction to Chu Chu.

Facing a displeased emperor, Xiao Jinyu has to defend his investigative approach. Chu Chu dives deeper into a conspiracy hidden under a plague.

Granted a special mission from the emperor, Xiao Jinyu takes Chu Chu on a trip to southwest China — but danger quickly follows suit.

Chu Chu and Leng Yue's friendship grows deeper as they face a risky situation together. A homecoming gets entangled with a criminal investigation.
