Forensic Imperial Concubine novel Chapter 904

"Your Majesty, I have an idea," Zack said slowly. "The South Kingdom had just got past violent internal struggles. Their queen, Catherine, is currently preoccupied in cheering her people up and upping their slumping economy. With that, we know that we do not need to worry about the South Kingdom attacking us. I suggest we focus all our forces on keeping a close eye on the Great Jade Kingdom and the Wonder Kingdom. Right now, Emperor Rolando is attacking the Dragon Pass, which means that he had been intending to attack the Bright Dynasty for a long time now. He is well prepared, so we are sure that Dragon Pass is in grave danger. I also would like to volunteer to go to the north domain in order to provide them any support they may need."

Hearing that, Maxwell turned to look at Zack in surprise. Zack was a thoughtful man who was incomparable to anyone in the court, even his father. Indeed, if he was in the north domain, he, along with Shawn, who was more capable of fighting, might be able to resist the forces of the Great Jade Kingdom.

"I would like to go with you," Maxwell offered once again.

After thinking about the proposals just laid out in front of him, Lucas thought that the combination of Shawn, Maxwell, and Zack might actually work in their favor. With a new highly feasible plan, he agreed to send the two men to the north domain, exclaiming, "Approved! The military situation we are currently faced with is urgent. Go back home and say goodbye to your families. Set off as soon as possible."

"Yes, Your Majesty."

When Franklin and Isabella heard that Zack offered to go to the border to support Shawn in battle, they were severely shocked. Zack was the only male heir of the Bu Clan, and he was a civil official who had no background in martial arts or martial affairs. But now, he would be heading for the border to join a war! If anything terrible happened to him, the Bu Clan would lose its sole inheritor and would definitely be facing a desperate situation!

"Do you really have to go there?" Isabella asked, her voice full of worry and hesitation. "Can't you refuse? The situation over there is very dangerous!"

"Mother, I must go. Prince Matthew is trapped in the Great Jade Kingdom and Shawn is guarding Dragon Pass without anyone supporting him. If Emperor Rolando makes an appearance there and decides to fight, Shawn would definitely not stand a chance against him. I must go there to support him until Prince Matthew arrives there," Zack hastily explained as he was packing his belongings. He was in such a hurry that he did not even have time to raise his head and look at his parents.

"But why you? You are a civil official, Zack, not a military officer!" Isabella pointed out, sounding more anxious than before.

"Isabella, stop it," Franklin said, trying to stop his wife from having a full-blown panic attack. "Zack may not be a military officer, but he currently is the suitable person to aid Shawn in the war at Dragon Pass."

"That is not true, Franklin!" Isabella cried out, tears now streaming down her cheeks.

"Emperor Rolando is cunning, nuanced, and tactical. Shawn's plans are too straightforward, I'm afraid. He definitely is no match for someone like Emperor Rolando. If he failed to protect Dragon Pass from the oncoming forces, it would be a big problem for Bright Dynasty," Franklin explained, sighing heavily. Slowly, he turned to his son and said, "Zack, please. You must be careful. You must come back to us."

"Father, Mother!" Caroline cried out as she came in. As soon as she heard that Zack had offered to go to the border to fight, she came with her baby. "You can't let Zack go to the north domain! There is a war there!"
