When all the others were out of sight, Rolando said slowly, "Bastian, go to investigate something for me, something important."
"I am listening, Your Majesty."
"Check whether Harper has any relationship with Phoenix City." Rolando thought of something that he had ignored. The current queen of the South Kingdom had forced Harper to enter the Labyrinth Swamp, and then Harper traversed through the swamp and got out of Phoenix City. He was clear about how severe the control of Phoenix City was. Darren in that city was a man difficult to get along with, and how could Harper have left Phoenix City secretly?
"Yes, Your Majesty." Bastian was shocked. It was horrible that Harper might have something to do with Phoenix City. If it was true... Bastian could hardly imagine that. Harper was a direct descendant of the Qin Clan. This princess from the Bright Dynasty had a good relationship with Prince Kile from the Wonder Kingdom, the emperor of his country, and even Diana from the South Kingdom. Cold sweat broke out on Bastian's forehead.
He recalled that the Qin Clan had once persuaded many people to divide their country into four parts. Now that Harper had something to do with the four kingdoms, did she want to unite the kingdoms into one?
"Your Majesty, if Princess Harper has something to do with Phoenix City, will you..."
Rolando didn't answer him. The game played by Harper was too big. He found that he knew nothing about her. In order to get the Sacred Seal, Harper could turn the whole South Kingdom upside down. For the sake of the Heavenly Books, she went to the Great Jade Kingdom alone and even took risks. It was said that he was a person who would do anything to achieve his goal. So was Harper.
"You may leave now."
"Yes, Your Majesty."
After Bastian left, Rolando took out a small portrait from his pocket, and opened it. It was the portrait of Harper. "Harper, we are the same kind of people who would do anything to get what we want. We are born to be a couple. You will eventually come back to me. Now, just do whatever you want. Come back if it's enough."
Fernando was helpless. 'Why are you so stubborn, Your Majesty? Princess Harper never falls in love with you. From the beginning to the end, she only sees Prince Matthew in her eyes. No matter how much you have done for her and sacrificed yourself, she would never respond to your love.'
"Fernando."
"Yes, Your Majesty."
