Forensic Imperial Concubine novel Chapter 692

Then Cynthia was directly taken to the Sleek Palace. There, Harper was sitting on the swing in the yard, making a kite leisurely and waiting for her maid to feed her. She never got a feeling of being under house arrest.

Cynthia froze for a moment and didn't know what to say. The Sleek Palace was where the empress lived. The former empress was forced to commit suicide, and the palace remained unoccupied. But unexpectedly, Harper stayed in this palace even though she was just a prince's wife.

"Your Highness, it feels so nice to meet you," Cynthia greeted her with a pleasant smile, and then bowed at once.

Harper looked up at her and then continued her work with the kite. "It seems Francis has invited you as well to the Imperial Palace."

Cynthia immediately understood the underlying meaning of her words. It was not Harper who asked her to come to the Imperial Palace, but it was Francis. She had no clue why he kept Harper in the palace and also brought her here.

"General Ken of the palace guards brought us here. He said you are here." Cynthia's voice was gentle and pleasant. Harper smiled, hearing her words.

"Yes, I just said that I would leave the Imperial Palace as a guest was coming to visit me. But now, the guest has been invited in. Give Lady Cynthia a stool. It's been so boring in the palace and I'm not allowed to go out. So I decided to fly a kite to kill time." Harper waved her hand at a maid.

"Thank you very much, Your Highness," Cynthia thanked and sat down. She quietly watched Harper making the kite for some time with Forsythia's assistance. Anabel fed a piece of cake to her from time to time, and she enjoyed it very much.

"Your Highness, you have been enjoying yourself."

"I am not someone who treats oneself badly. As long as I can make myself happy and pleasant, I won't lead a bad life. Now that I have fallen into someone's custody, I think it's better to adapt to the situation and keep myself pleasant than to suffer from hardship and endure agony." Harper looked at Cynthia and found that the kite was almost ready. She only needed to tie the kite line.

Cynthia didn't observe the painting on Harper's kite at first, but as Harper picked it up, her sight fell on it. She was so embarrassed the moment she saw it, and Amy's face too turned red. It was a portrait of a beautiful naked lady!

"I'll try it first and check if it flies." Harper shook the kite. As the kite spread wide, the naked lady on the painting looked more vivid. Cynthia couldn't bear looking at the picture directly, so she looked away immediately.
