Zhu Cheng heard the words of the old coroner outside the door, his heart skipped a beat, and he quickly signaled his personal soldiers to go in and help.
In his opinion, his son-in-law's personality was somewhat unpredictable—aside from treating his daughter genuinely well, none of his actions were expected by others, and his attitude towards others carried a hint of arrogance. He was not unfriendly, but he couldn't be considered amiable either.

Zhu Yu stood nearby, watching Lu Qing settle Jia Jun's body and leaned in to ask quietly, "Did he die limp or rigid? Is there any warmth left?"
