Forensic Imperial Concubine novel Chapter 837

In the middle of his conversation with Harper, Matthew sighed silently. He knew that Harper would definitely go to the Great Jade Kingdom by herself. She had decided that she must acquire the Heavenly Book as well as the Sacred Seal. Even if Matthew could guarantee that he would get it for her, Harper would still insist on going with him. After all, Rolando was not an ordinary opponent. If Matthew wanted to take something from that man, it would cost him a lot!

But even so, Matthew didn't want Harper to deal with Rolando herself. Nonetheless, he knew his wife too well. Once she set her mind on something, no one and nothing could stop her, not even Matthew. Moreover, Rolando had once saved Harper's life, so Harper thought that she should pay him a visit.

"The twelve secret guards will be with you. Remember, protect yourself."

"I know, you can rest assured that I will. I promise that I will cherish my life to the best of my abilities." To join in the celebration of the coronation in the Great Jade Kingdom, the representatives from the Bright Dynasty had set off. Everyone thought that Harper would go with them. So they were surprised when she stayed, without showing any intention of going to the Great Jade Kingdom.

Even Zack was a little bit confused. As far as he knew, Rolando had two of the Heavenly Books, so he thought that Harper wouldn't have been unconcerned about them. He immediately went to visit her to see what happened. When he reached their mansion, he found Harper laying leisurely in the yard while basking in the sun. "Wow, you seem to be having a relaxing and peaceful day."

Harper opened her eyes and saw Zack. With a smile on her face, she asked him to sit down. "What brings you here? Didn't His Majesty enslave you?"

"I finally have the time and soon enough, I heard that you're lonely and pitiful, now that you're alone. But when I came here, I find you in this very soothing state. People are saying that you're going to be abandoned by Prince Matthew, since he left home without you. Everyone is already planning how to push their daughters into his mansion." He then took the teapot on the stone table and poured himself a cup of tea. "This is some good tea! I have to say, you really have a good taste."

"You are currently the youngest grand secretary of the Cabinet in the Bright Dynasty. I'm assuming the tea in your mansion must be better than mine. Perhaps the emperor sent all of those valuable things to your mansion in order to win over your heart," Harper teased him.

Upon hearing that, Zack smiled helplessly. "Actually, I would rather that His Majesty doesn't treat me so well. That way, I can slack off on my work."

Harper picked up a grape, put it into her mouth, and said, "I'm afraid that His Majesty already knows what was on your mind. So he's doing his best to try and win you over and then, you'll have to do everything for him."

After a sigh, Zack felt like Harper was in a good mood so he asked, "Why didn't you go to the Great Jade Kingdom with Prince Matthew this time?"

"Oh, I'm going there. I'll catch up with him a little later," Harper immediately said.
