The door of the side hall was closed slowly. The empress released Harper's hand and sat down at the head of the table while a
maid served them hot tea. "Harper, I'm sorry to trouble you by bringing you here."
"Your Majesty, it's all right." Harper had the teacup in her hand. She sniffed at it, and there was an odd smell. With a gleam in her
eyes, she took a slow sip, and said, "It's my honor to talk with you."
"It's said that you are an intelligent lady. You are indeed very understanding," the empress said with a smile. "Matthew dotes on
you. Even in his mansion, you are the one in command. Every lady in the imperial capital admires you."
"Yeah, that's true," Harper said nonchalantly. Then she suddenly rubbed her temples, feeling some discomfort in her head.
The empress kept her eyes fixed on Harper, with an evil gleam in them. Harper looked up at the empress, and felt dizzy. Then
she passed into unconsciousness.
Nancy stepped forward to check Harper's condition, and found that she had passed out. She nodded at the empress. "Call her
over and get them changed."
"Yes, Your Majesty."
A woman emerged from an inner room. She was like a mirror image of Harper, identical to her in both face and figure. Nancy
quickly removed Harper's ceremonial outfit and put it on the woman. Then she clothed Harper with the maid-in-waiting's clothes.
After they left the side hall, she told another servant to take Harper away.
After the woman put on Harper's ceremonial outfit, she bowed to the empress and said, "Your Majesty."
Her words and gestures were exactly the same as Harper's. The empress nodded with satisfaction and extended her hand to the
woman. "Harper, the banquet is to begin. Let's go to the front hall."
"Yes, Your Majesty." The woman came forward to accompany the empress, smiling decently just as Harper did. Every step she
took was proper and all of her words were spoken softly. Even the empress could detect no difference from the real Harper
whatsoever, as if she were not an imposter.
The moment the door opened, Forsythia hurried up to the false Harper. "Your Highness."
She nodded at Forsythia. "Let's go to the front hall."

Forsythia followed her lady directly behind, leaving Fred in the rear. He was standing there with his head bowed. The false
Harper passed him and glanced coldly at him, but without saying a word.
Fred's shadow slowly faded to the end of the group and then disappeared in the darkness behind. A moment later, he
reappeared with the rest of them, following those in the front, heading to the front hall.

After everyone left, two maids propped up someone dressed like a maid-in-waiting, and came out of the room. "Good grief! Why
did you have a relapse on a day like this? Aren't you making trouble for others? Let's hurry up and send her back."
The two maids carried the unconscious maid-in-waiting briskly along, having the bearing of martial arts masters. Instead of going
to the place where the maids lived, they took her to the Cold Palace. As they went further and further, there was no other person
along the way, except for the three of them.
Suddenly there was a quick movement, and one of the maids tumbled and fell to the ground. The other was taken off guard and

was warded off and she was struck. Then she felt a sharp pain in her chest, where a dagger pierced her chest. Before she died, the maid was shocked to see the owner of the hand holding the dagger. When did Harper wake up?! Harper took the dagger out of the dead maid on the ground. Then she smiled at the newcomer. "It turned out the empress wanted to play a game with an imposter of me. But I don't know exactly who is waiting for me at the Cold Palace." "Your Highness, let me have a check," Fred offered. "Thanks, please do." Harper looked at the first maid

but the hero of the birthday banquet, the emperor himself, was waiting for her in the Cold Palace. She knew perfectly well about how much the emperor hated her, and she had no doubt about the depths of his depravity. It was clear that his purpose of waiting for her was to torture and violate her, but she wouldn't allow his wish to come true. "Come here." Harper crooked her finger at Fred, indicating him to come close, and

becoming like Harper's, he was too astonished to say a word. Then he saw Harper take off the crown princess's coat, leaving her
only in her underwear, and his eyes widened.
"Hide this maid. Let's send Felix's wife to His Majesty and see what he intends to do." Harper took out a small mirror and
changed her make-up. In a few moments, she looked like an ordinary maid-in-waiting, someone who would be invisible in the
crowd.
Fred and Harper, on each side of Fiona, carried her to the Cold Palace. As soon as they entered, the old emperor asked angrily,
"Why are you so late?"
"Your Majesty, there was a brief accident. Fortunately, we are safe and sound and have brought her here," Harper said in a rush.
The emperor stepped forward and pinched the unconscious woman's chin. He looked at her beautiful face, his fingers playfully
moving on it, and said, "Put her down. You can leave now."
"Yes, Your Majesty." Harper and Fred put the woman down on the bed, exchanged a glance with each other, went out and shut
the door.
Looking at the woman on the bed, the emperor gnashed his teeth out of hatred, and quickly took off his waistband, saying,
"Harper Chu, when you betrayed me, did you ever imagine such an outcome? When Matthew knows that you have been defiled,

the face to live. I won't be the one to kill you. Your suicide has nothing to do with me." As soon as he finished his words, he got on the bed and stripped off the clothes that were left on the woman. With absolutely no preliminary tenderness, he went straight to the point. At that moment, the woman woke up inexplicably. When she saw the man on top of her, her eyes opened wide in horror. She wanted to scream, but she couldn't utter a

but then he felt greater satisfaction with his revenge. He suppressed the struggling hands of the woman under his body, and his movements became rougher. He had an obscene and happy smile on his face. "You know what? Your frightened eyes make me want to rape
