Forensic Imperial Concubine novel Chapter 630

Later that evening, Andy visited Matthew's mansion to deliver a message from the empress, requesting Harper to go to the Imperial Palace to make a diagnosis and give treatment for the emperor. However, Matthew refused this request at once without a hint of hesitation.

Hearing Matthew's response, Andy commented in a concerned tone, "Your Highness, His Majesty's health is of the utmost importance and he is in serious danger right now. The officials only believe in Lady Harper's medical skills. If she doesn't go there as soon as possible, I'm afraid that..."

Before he could even finish his sentence, Matthew cut him off and said, "Andy, do you really want my wife to go to the Imperial Palace, diagnose and treat His Majesty this time? How can I be sure that the empress won't seize the opportunity to hold her as a hostage in order to threaten me?" His voice sounded so cold, and the look on his face sent chills down Andy's spine. In the face of such a terrible person, he couldn't help trembling in fear deep inside. Even if the emperor were present, he still wouldn't dare to offend Matthew, let alone when the emperor was stuck in a coma. While struggling to remain composed in front of everyone, Andy steeled his resolve and said, "Well, His Majesty has slipped into a coma and needs to be treated right away..."

"Andy, my wife will head to the Imperial Palace with me tomorrow morning to diagnose His Majesty. On top of that, I'm going to ask some loyal officials to witness it. That is the best way. Otherwise, do you seriously think those officials would believe that my wife would go to treat His Majesty at this point in time?" The cold and stern look he had in his eyes was making Andy feel weaker and weaker in the knees with each passing second. At that moment, he only wished that he could bury his head into the ground just so he would not have to face Matthew under such terrible circumstances. Something was telling him that Matthew had become even more frightening than he was before.

"Your Highness... I understand. I'll inform Her Majesty right away,"

Andy responded very quickly, desperate to leave that place as soon as he could. It should go without saying that he did not intend to stay there for even a second longer. It made him feel like he was suffering in hell.

"Andy," Matthew called out all of a sudden.

"Yes, Your Highness," Andy answered at once. Hearing Matthew calling his name startled him so much that he trembled in fear once again, falling to his knees. "Is there anything else I can do for you?"

"Don't forget that your master is His Majesty, not Her Majesty," Matthew flatly said. Hearing Matthew's insightful warning gave Andy quite a fright.

"Yes, I've always been making sure to keep this in mind. His Majesty is the master I'm supposed to serve. Thank you for your kind reminder, Your Highness," Andy firmly replied. Then, he got up on his feet right away, leaving in such a hurry. Truth be told, he was aware that Matthew had already been suspicious of him. He had been living in the Imperial Palace for a number of years, so he already knew which response to give in such a situation would ensure his safety. After Andy left, Matthew simply returned to his room, thinking that it would be better to just sleep at this time.

The next morning, Harper was woken up by Matthew. Although she didn't really want to leave the comfort of her cozy bed, she still got up anyway. After all, she knew full well that there was an important job she had to do today. After getting freshened up, she went into the carriage with Matthew, heading to the Imperial Palace. Throughout the entire day, she had been feeling so sluggish. In fact, when she got inside the carriage, she even used Matthew's lap as a pillow and slept all the way.

The emperor was currently in a severe coma, and the officials were suspecting Felix. What was more, Matthew said that Harper would be treating the emperor under the watchful eyes of the officials. For that reason, all of them were there waiting for Matthew and Harper to arrive.

Before long, the two finally arrived. Without delay, one of the officials immediately asked, "Your Highness, is Lady Harper..."

"Head straight toward the Tranquil Hall," Matthew ordered in a rather cold tone. When they arrived at the gate of the palace, he didn't get off the carriage and asked the coachman to take them directly into the Imperial Palace.
