Forensic Imperial Concubine novel Chapter 790

Harper smiled and replied, "Yes that is how it is in most of the cases. Men are used to treating their wives that way. When they are happy, they spoil their wives, but when they are angry, they treat their wives indifferently. Then, why is it considered wrong if a woman behaves in the same manner? Since you want a wife who should be an equal partner, my temperament and personality should also match with yours. Otherwise, how will I be a suitable ally to my handsome and unparalleled husband?"

"Now, that sounds good. Rather, I should say, that sounds much better than the sweet words you said to me in the past," Matthew said. He kissed her hair and held her closer to his chest.

Hearing that, Harper smiled happily. She remembered that she was asked to say "something nice" to her husband. And she tricked him by saying "something nice" repeatedly, but she gave up on it very soon.

"If you like to hear nice words, I will say them to you every day. I promise the nice words will be different each day and you will never get bored of them." Harper chuckled, rubbing her nose on Matthew's chest.

"All kinds of 'something nice'?" Matthew asked as he lifted Harper's face to glance into her beautiful eyes.

"You are so smart!" Harper remarked. Of course, she would just repeat the "something nice" to him. It would give her a headache if she had to think of new nice words to praise him every day. No matter how unique she tried to be, all complimentary words would be used up sooner or later.

"And how cunning you are!" Matthew pointed at the forehead of Harper. "You are yet to tell me how you managed to cross the Labyrinth Swamp. Will you tell me now?"

"It was easy. I used this," Harper said in her usual nonchalance and took out the Sacred Seal. It was the same seal that she had taken from the library of the South Kingdom. "This seal saved my life even when the library collapsed."

Matthew watched with his eyes wide open as Harper continued, "This looks like any other jade pendant. Is it very powerful?"

"It can open an enchantment barrier," Harper added. She went on to demonstrate the power of the Sacred Seal to Matthew. As soon as the spiritual energy was put into the Sacred Seal, there was a sudden emission of a soft light that kind of wrapped around the couple. Matthew watched the soft light with awe in his eyes.

"Is this also a secret skill of the Qin Clan?" Matthew asked.

"I don't know, but since I am able to use it, it means that it has something to do with the Qin Clan. But we know too little about the Qin Clan," Harper remarked. She let out a sigh and continued, "The more I know about this Sacred Seal, the more I feel that the destruction of the Qin Clan is not that simple. As they were really powerful, how could they be easily slaughtered?"

"No matter how powerful they were, they were bound to have some weakness," Matthew said in a suggestive tone. "Don't get too worked up with this. The more anxious you are, the more mistakes you'll make. Take your time, and the truth will be revealed sooner or later."

"Yes, you are right." Harper nodded. "Do you know why I entered the Labyrinth Swamp?"

"I am sure you must have been forced into it," Matthew said decisively. He believed it must have been a helpless situation for Harper that made her enter the Labyrinth Swamp. She would never go there out of choice. After all, she was not a fool. She knew how dangerous it was.
