Forensic Imperial Concubine novel Chapter 842

"I don't think Emperor Rolando will purposely make trouble for us. Our nation and the Great Jade Kingdom are allies. Moreover, he intends to make Princess Lilian his empress. He must sincerely want to have a more stable alliance." Although Shawn couldn't figure out what Rolando was thinking at the moment, he knew that the man wouldn't start a battle any time soon.

Harper looked around and saw a figure who was staggering out. "Who is that?" The person lunged at Harper at the sight of her.

"Master, I've finally found you!"

"Diana!" Harper looked at Diana in utter astonishment. The woman was in such a mess. It took her like countless days to finally catch up with Harper after a long time. "What's wrong with you? Why do you look so embarrassed?" Harper asked in surprise.

"Master, please help me!" Diana wiped her bitter tears. "Carlson is such a shameless person. He even plotted against me! Do you know what he did? That bastard! He drugged my horse and changed the guideposts along the way. As a result, I got lost so many times that I only arrived in the imperial capital a few days ago. As soon as I arrived, I heard that you already left. So I was in a rush to chase after you. I've never thought that you would take this way."

While she was thinking about Carlson, Harper's eyes lit up. It seemed like something had happened between Diana and Carlson. It could only be the reason that he had played such cruel tricks on her.

"Why did he do that to you?" Harper asked

"I slapped his face a dozen times!"

Shawn opened his mouth a little, as if he couldn't believe what he had just heard. Carlson was known for being cunning and unruly. Some would even say that he was the devil himself. He was actually showing mercy in punishing her for slapping him a dozen times. If it were someone else, he would have taken the person's life right there and then.

"Well why did you slap his face?" Harper's eyes widened in shock. Was it that Carlson thought that Diana was so beautiful so he tried to do something malicious towards her? And Diana was so irritated that she slapped his face a dozen times?

"At that time, I finally reached the Birch Pass, but I couldn't find you. He was the first one I saw so I asked him where you were. But he was sleeping like a dead pig. In order to wake him up, I slapped him more than ten times." Diana narrated the story so casually since she didn't think she did anything wrong.

While listening to Diana, Shawn nearly burst into laughter. It might be the first time that Carlson felt so offended. The poor guy was just sleeping so soundly but out of nowhere, he was slapped in the face so many times. No wonder he made trouble for Diana on her way here.

"It's not really easy for you to get into the imperial capital unharmed." Harper handed a water bottle to Diana.
