Forensic Imperial Concubine novel Chapter 868

"Yes, Your Highness."

Forsythia immediately turned around to catch up with Lilian, while Harper continued her way to the Harmony Palace. When she pushed the door of the palace open, she saw a pot of blooming sweet-scented osmanthus on the table. The fragrance overflowed and filled the entire room.

"Maids," she called out.

"Your Highness."

"Where did the flower come from?" Harper asked in confusion. Before they went out, the flower hadn't been in there.

"The osmanthus in the Imperial Garden is blooming well, so the Imperial Household Bureau sent a pot in here. It must have been ordered by His Majesty." Because it was merely a pot of flower sent from the Imperial Household Bureau, the maid had not inquired about the details.

"I see, you can leave now." Harper took the flower to a table by the window. She liked the light fragrance of the flowers very much. Since she felt bored sitting there alone, she picked up a book and began to read. As time passed by, she didn't notice that the incense which was burning in the censer that day was different from the usual.

Meanwhile, Rolando was discussing state affairs with the courtiers when a maid suddenly came. She then asked Sean, "Lord Sean, is His Majesty busy right now?"

"Aren't you Miss Sonia?" Since Rolando cared a lot about the lady staying in the Harmony Palace, Sean had acquired the information about all of the maids and eunuchs working in there. As soon as he saw Sonia, a maid from the Harmony Palace, he immediately understood that it must have something to do with Harper. "Does Lady Harper need something?" he asked.

"My Lord, Lady Harper fainted."

"What?" Sean exclaimed in surprise. He knew that a piece of news like that was very serious. If something bad happened to Harper, Rolando might kill all of them. With such thoughts in mind, he entered the room in a hurry, despite the fact that Rolando was still discussing the state affairs with the courtiers.

"Your Majesty." Sean directly interrupted the discussion as soon as he was inside the room. Miguel unpleasantly frowned and said to him, "Sean, you're getting more and more unruly as time goes on."

"What's the matter?" Rolando asked, turning his attention to Sean.
