Forensic Imperial Concubine novel Chapter 736

"Change your clothes!"

"What's wrong?" Harper asked, confused at his sudden outburst.

"It's hideous!" Matthew unconsciously turned his head around. The truth was that it wasn't because the clothes were too repulsive but Harper would draw a lot of people's attention in those clothes. There was a possibility that they would be caught as soon as they entered the capital. It was not until then that Matthew realized how a beautiful appearance could sometimes bring some trouble.

Harper glared at Matthew before asking, "Did you just say that I'm hideous?"

"It's not you! I said the clothes are ugly!" Matthew explained or rather yelled. He didn't feel at ease while looking at those clothes. He could not understand why the citizens of the South Kingdom wore such kind of garments. They were bearing their arms and legs, and even their waists were very much exposed. It might be wrong but Matthew wanted to keep his wife's body to himself.

When Harper looked at the awkward expression on Matthew's face, she finally understood why he was acting so weirdly. "You know, these clothes are actually very conservative. I had worn more revealing ones before. So it doesn't matter."

"No way!" Matthew stubbornly insisted, becoming more upset as the conversation went on.

"We are going to sneak into the capital of the South Kingdom. If we don't wear their clothes, we're going to fail."

"I would rather fail!"

Harper's head was pounding. Finally, she came up with an idea to resolve their difference. She put on a cloak and covered her whole body with it. With that, Matthew decided to move forward although he was very much reluctant.

Since both of their faces were too recognizable, they each took a disguise pill. It could change their appearance and make their faces look like other citizens'. When they were among the crowd, they blended so well that no one would be able to identify them easily.

It was only then when the discontent in Matthew's heart was finally gone. But still, he carefully kept an eye on Harper's cloak. Whenever a small part of her skin was exposed, he would quickly stretch out his hands to adjust the cloak. Needless to say, it made Harper feel quite helpless.

The couple disguised themselves as merchants of medical supplies and entered the capital of the South Kingdom with ease. Then, they found an inn to stay at. The capital was bustling from every corner. There were vendors, merchants as well as local people who were bargaining with the vendors.

Looking at the boisterous crowd, Harper commented, "The busy crowds are only seeking their personal interests."
