Forensic Imperial Concubine novel Chapter 774

Unable to hold it back any longer, Lance spat out the blood in his mouth. The eunuch and the guards became frightened. "Shamans! Call the shamans right this second."

The situation in the Imperial Palace was nothing short of chaos. While Lance was spitting blood, a lot of shamans came to the palace in a hurry. Meanwhile, Matthew with his troops, was attacking the cities of the South Kingdom. It was reported that the Starry Palace had been destroyed. All of the people in the South Kingdom were hysterical. If Lance became seriously ill, the kingdom would be ruined soon enough!

"Shaman, how is the emperor?"

Being summoned by Lance, all the officials of the South Kingdom rushed to the palace. Their kingdom was in grave danger at that time. If anything bad happened to Lance who was an important pillar of the entire kingdom, it would suddenly turn this chaotic situation into a hopeless one.

"His Majesty spat blood and then fainted due to excessive rage. He is fine now. He has already woken up, but he can't be stressed out or provoked. His Majesty calls for all of you," the shaman announced.

"Okay," the officials stated in chorus.

All of them walked into the room one by one. Meanwhile, Lance leaned against his bed with a pale face and said, "You are all here."

"Your Majesty."

"You already know the current situation of our kingdom. Matthew with his Black Flag Army is now heading towards the south and soon they will arrive at our capital. To put it plainly, it's going to be hard for our soldiers to resist. I'm afraid it won't be long before the South Kingdom falls." Lance coughed twice before he continued, "I didn't expect that it would turn out to be a big mistake to invite the envoys of the three kingdoms to attend the ceremony."

"Your Majesty, Prince Matthew will certainly retreat after we hand over Princess Harper to him," an official responded right away. 'Why is Prince Matthew attacking the South Kingdom? It was all because of Princess Harper,' he thought. The officials were all thinking that before Prince Matthew and his army could come to the kingdom, he needed to know that Princess Harper was safe and sound. As long as she was fine, they didn't have to worry about Prince Matthew's invasion.

When Lance heard that suggestion, a hint of hatred appeared in his eyes. "Speaking of Harper... She kidnapped Diana and strayed into the Labyrinth Swamp with her."

The faces of all the officials turned pale as soon as they heard the news. They couldn't believe the grim reality that they were facing. Once a person went into the swamp, their corpses couldn't even be found. No one had ever entered the swamp and come out alive to tell about it. What was more, a lot of highly skilled shamans once tried to enter the swamp, looking for secret medicines to make those long-lost secret remedies. However, their efforts were in vain as they had never come back. Even as a member of the South Kingdom, they couldn't resist the miasma inside the swamp.
