Forensic Imperial Concubine novel Chapter 760

"Your Majesty, what Prince Kile wants is an explanation from you. But instead, you just keep on blaming me. Before everything is cleared up, you already put the blame on me. Could it be that you're trying to conceal something even bigger and you're just using me to distract everyone's attention?" Harper said, still calm as ever.

"Lady Harper, be careful with your words!" Lance said in panic while his eyes started to widen.

Harper stood up and started to walk around while she spoke. "It's the South Kingdom's fault that Prince Kile was attacked at your banquet. I was framed to be blamed for that assault, which only shows that you're incompetent. If you think that just because the new emperor had just been crowned in the Bright Dynasty, you can stir up trouble and get away with it, you're wrong. We're not afraid of you at all."

"Lady Harper, you're distorting the truth. Everyone saw that it was you who did it!" Lance furiously said. He could not help but think, 'What a shameless woman! Obviously, it was her who tried to kill Prince Kile. But she wants to blame the South Kingdom instead! She is so shameless!'

"Did you really see with your own two eyes that it was me who attacked Prince Kile? Or did you only see the hidden weapon being shot from my direction?" Harper asked firmly while raising her eyebrow at him.

"The hidden weapon was indeed shot from your direction! No one could shoot the hidden weapon from that position except for you, Lady Harper," Miguel responded first before anyone could do so.

"Prime Minister Miguel, are you not seeing that the real person behind this could have arranged the attack of the hidden weapon? The seats of the envoys were arranged in advance. It would have been easy for someone to set a trap in my seat beforehand. Even if Prince Kile wasn't the target, someone would be hurt from it," Harper comprehensively stated, emphasizing on her every word.

"You are making irresponsible assumptions!" Lance exclaimed.

"It's easy to know if I'm making irresponsible assumptions or not. Just investigate and the truth will be revealed soon enough. Your Majesty, you may not know this, but three hundred thousand soldiers of the Black Flag Army have secretly gathered a hundred miles away from the Birch Pass before my husband and I came to the South Kingdom. We only need to give one command and they will go straight to the Birch Pass," Harper slowly added.

Suddenly, a dark expression descended on Lance's face. Francis was surprised by her revelation. Harper was claiming that the Black Flag Army had gathered outside of the Birch Pass. That was absolutely impossible! How could it be true? But if it were, then Luther would certainly face an overwhelming loss and even death if he were to ever rebel.

"Are you trying to make us laugh, Lady Harper? After all, it's obvious to everyone that you were the one who attacked Prince Kile. But still, you kept on insisting that you're not the killer. Do you have any evidence to support this claim?"

"The evidence will come forth, Your Majesty. However, if you refuse to deal with this matter the right way, you will not only become the enemy of the Wonder Kingdom, but you will also be attacked by the Black Flag Army. Although I am a woman, I have some medical skills and investigation skills. I am willing to find the murderer if you want, but..."

Harper stopped in mid-sentence, making Lance very nervous. This time, Matthew and his wife came to the South Kingdom mainly because they wanted to reorganize their army in the south. He was afraid that if he were to grant their request of handing over Francis, ultimately, it wouldn't be good for him in the end.

"Lady Harper, what do you want from me?"
