Forensic Imperial Concubine

The second group of ten imperial physicians was already on their chairs and writing in a hurry. Matthew reviewed the dos and don'ts written by the first group of imperial physicians. It was his first step into parenthood, and he was not sure about the things to be done. Thus, he was left with no other option but to seek advice from the experts.

It took almost two hours for all the physicians to finish their assignment. Looking at all the physicians in the room, Matthew drew out a few pieces of paper and asked, "Who is Ian Wang?"
