Forensic Imperial Concubine novel Chapter 788

"Open the gates! Open the gates!" Shawn screamed at the top of his lungs. As fast as he could, he turned around and ran downstairs to welcome her at the gate.

When Harper saw that the gates of the city were slowly being opened, a smile appeared on her face. "I didn't expect that they would find out so soon that we're coming towards them. But how did they know that I would enter through this gate?"

It was not until they approached the gate that Harper recognized the person standing on the hanging bridge. She stopped the horse and greeted him with a smile, "Hi, Shawn. It's been a long time."

"You have no idea how much you made all of us worried." Shawn could only stare at the person on top of the horse. Her skin was a little dark; she was thinner than the last time he saw her, but still so full of energy. His eyes gleamed with happiness. "If you hadn't come back at this moment, His Highness would have starved himself to death."

"Well, I'm back now," Harper said, her eyes lighting up.

While Shawn and Harper were catching up at the gate, Jack suddenly broke into the training ground. He then exclaimed, "Your Highness, Her Highness is back."

Matthew suddenly stopped. The sword flew out of his hand and went directly into the door which Joshua was leaning against. The blade of the sword was still trembling and it almost pierced through his head!

With one hand covering his mouth, Jack patted his chest to calm himself down. Fortunately, he was standing at a very good angle. A gust of wind blew his hair and Matthew approached him. "Where is she?"

"At the gate—"

Before Jack could finish his words, Matthew had already disappeared from his sight. He watched as Matthew ran towards the other gate. "Your Highness, you're going in the wrong direction..."

The corner of Joshua's mouth twitched and he put his arm around Jack's neck. "Let him go. Let's go to the east gate to welcome our princess!"

When he saw Harper, Joshua couldn't believe that the pretty woman in front of him was their lady. She had nice lips and white teeth as well as the most charming eyes. No one could imagine how such a weak-looking woman was able to tame their mighty prince.

"Your Highness?" Joshua asked, a little unsure.

Looking at the man in black whose face was full of confusion, Harper smiled. "You must be Joshua. I heard a lot about you from Matthew."

Upon hearing this, Joshua breathed a sigh of relief. "I've always heard them talk about you, but I never got the chance to see you in the flesh. Now that I've met you today, it's going to be hard not to recognize you from now on."

"Do you think I'm actually fragile? Did I disappoint your expectations?"

Joshua immediately shook his head. "No, it's not like that. In my imagination, you're elegant, noble, and admirable. I had always thought that you were someone to be worshiped, but I didn't expect you to be so easy-going."
