Forensic Imperial Concubine novel Chapter 797

When Harper was trying to sneak into the Royal Palace of the South Kingdom, she, unfortunately, got lost. What was worse, Fred got lost with her as well.

"Don't you know the way to Lance's residence?" Harper turned back to look at Fred, implying that he should know it. After all, it was understandable that she didn't know because she had never been there before.

Fred shook his head. "Your Highness, I've never been to Lance's residence so I don't know the way."

Harper wanted to cry but she didn't have time for tears at that moment. Both of them had no idea how to get to their destination but still, they continued to move forward. She had no choice but to give an order to the secret guards to find Lance's palace.

Fred was rendered speechless because of Harper's command. The secret guards being used to find someone was like using a sledgehammer to crack a nut. Harper might be the only one who would do such a thing.

"This hall is so luxurious. Who lives here?" Harper curiously asked. Most halls in every palace bore the name of the one residing in each. However, the one they came across, looked rather splendid but it didn't have a name. Spending so much effort and resources in a nameless hall seemed unreasonable. So it made Harper very curious.

"We'll know when we get inside."

"That's what I think too."

Harper and Fred finally sneaked into the hall, only to find that it was spotless and no servant in sight. In the middle of the hall, there was even a jade statue to be worshiped. Once they looked closer, the face of the statue astonished both of them!

Fred looked at the jade statue and then at Harper. He looked back and forth between the jade statue and Harper before finally saying with utmost certainty, "Your Highness, since when have you been worshiped here?"

Harper firmly responded, "That isn't me! It looks worn and torn in some parts. It could have only been made more than ten years ago. At that time, I was just a child so this jade statue can't be me."

Fred looked at the jade statue more carefully and said, "Now that you say that, the jade statue actually looks a little different from you. At first glance, it definitely looks like you. But the longer you look at it, the more it doesn't look like you. The statue looks more gentle and compassionate. On the other hand, Your Highness..."

"I have a smile on my face, but my eyes are cold. Am I right?"

Fred didn't answer her, but silently thought to himself, 'You're right. Even when there's a smile on your face, it doesn't reach your indifferent eyes. It instantly makes people freeze to death. You only have a sincere smile when you're in front of His Highness and Zack.'
