Forensic Imperial Concubine novel Chapter 649

By the time Josef returned to the Tranquil Hall to report to the emperor, Jason had already left.

"Your Majesty, the former empress has gone," Josef informed the emperor euphemistically. Hearing this, the emperor closed his eyes and let out a long sigh. After being married to the emperor all these years, the empress met such a cruel fate. Although she deserved it, he couldn't help feeling a little sad.

"Your Majesty," Andy carefully called out.

"I'm okay. How is Francis doing?"

"Prince Francis is taking a good rest in his mansion. Since his body is frail, I'm afraid it's going to take quite a while for him to recover. Fortunately, Prince Jason is back and can lend his help. Please do not worry yourself too much, Your Majesty," Andy comforted the emperor with a pleasant smile. "Your Majesty, with Prince Jason around, you seem to be in high spirits lately."

"Is Lucas back?"

"Prince Lucas has gone to help with the disaster relief. He has yet to come back," Andy cautiously replied. "Prince Lucas enjoys roaming around. The former crown prince was the one who sent him to help with the disaster relief. I wonder if he..."

"He is my son; I know he'll be able to handle this trivial thing well," the emperor interrupted Andy. 'Lucas, it's good for you to leave the imperial capital. Everything's in a mess here and even the palace isn't at peace. This won't be a good time for you to return, ' the emperor thought. Then, he ordered, "Well, you may now take your leave."

"Yes, Your Majesty."

With Andy gone, the emperor was now all by himself in the hall. He kept silent for a long time. The entire hall was so quiet that he couldn't even hear the sound of his breath. It wasn't until nightfall that a voice came out from the hall. "Someone, go to invite Matthew into the palace."

"Right away, Your Majesty."

A guest came to a remote yard in the imperial capital. Felton was in the middle of taking his medicine when he heard his steward, Mathias, came to report to him, "Young master, a guest is here to pay you a visit."

"Please send the guest in."

After placing the bowl of medicine down at the table, Felton said to the figure who came in, "It's late in the evening. Aren't you afraid that he might get jealous if he found out what you're doing?"
