Forensic Imperial Concubine by Erika Black

Chapter 591

Harper was taken aback and frowned in deep thought. 'Is it a coincidence? What is the connection between the death of the one
from the Qin Clan in the Joy City and the spy's secret searching of our mansion for the Heavenly Book?' She racked her brain to
find an explanation.
But what bemused her even more was that the spy had concealed himself so well in their mansion. Furthermore, only a few
people knew that the third Heavenly Book was in their mansion. 'How did the spy come to know about this? No matter who it
was, we will be in danger if he is not found out.'
"I don't think many people know that the third Heavenly Book is in our mansion, do they?" Harper asked Matthew anxiously. She
thought, 'If I consider all the people I know, I should be able to come up with some clues.'
"Yes. The only four people around me knowing about it are Jack, Barry, Noah and Rufus," Matthew replied as he held Harper by
the waist. After a pause, he asked, "How about you?"
"I'm the only one." With a gravely ponderous face, Harper reasoned quickly. 'The Heavenly Book is very important and this is the
reason why I have told no others about it over the years. I am the only one who knows where the third one is. I have not shared
the secret with any of my subordinates. Therefore, the secret could only have been betrayed by those four near Matthew. Jack
and Barry have been Matthew's personal guards for so many years, while Noah is a good friend of his. The relationship between
Matthew and his steward Noah is even better than that between him and Rufus. I see no reason to suspect Rufus either. Even
though I don't know much about him, I know that he sincerely protects Matthew.'
"In other words, one of those four betrayed me." Matthew's eyes became cold as ice He suspected that the news might have
been leaked from Harper. However, a spy sent by the Great Jade Kingdom had monitored her for more than ten years and even
thoroughly searched the place where she stayed before her marriage. What was more, he even thoroughly searched the whole
Chu Clan mansion and still failed to find the Heavenly Book. This proved that the book was hidden by Harper quite well. Yet the
information was leaked out after she handed over the Heavenly Book to Matthew. Therefore, one of the four men betrayed him.
Although Harper didn't want to admit it, there was no other choice but to turn her suspicions upon them. There must be
something crooked with one of the four. "Which places did the spy search out?"
"My courtyard, my study, your courtyard, and the small warehouse where you store your dowry." Matthew told Harper what Barry
had told him. The spy was clever. He knew enough to search those places, but the Heavenly Book was extremely important.

How could Matthew be so lax as to put it in his own mansion? There were many people keeping an eye on him, and no matter
how and where it was hidden in the mansion, it would be unsafe.

dowry, but the spy searched through dowry. That is to say, the spy must be a member of our mansion, and he knows the situation here very well. When I took out the Heavenly Book, Rufus was also there. I said that

want me to handle this matter? After all, I haven't been with them for a long time. It will be easier for me to handle it..." "No, I'll take care of it," said Matthew as he kissed her hand. "I'm not a weak man." Harper smiled and said, "Okay then, I'll leave it to you." "Knock on the door and come in. Why are you hiding outside?" Matthew said coldly, suddenly looking out of the window. A man jumped in through the window and sat on the windowsill. The man turned out to be Howard. He said at once, "I had something on my mind and forgot to tell you about it, so I came over. I didn't expect to see you two flirting with each other. I didn't mean to disturb you." "What is it?" Harper asked, ignoring his teasing. "Scott once cured Francis, and they were on good terms with each other." Howard told the couple the information he found out. "Francis leaked the news that Scott had made the Longevity Pills." "I have guessed

"Who?"

"Marquis Scarlet."
Harper was truly dumbfounded. Francis was actually the mastermind of the crime. Yet, Marquis Scarlet was the one who rescued
Hodge's son, Milo. Was the rescue also arranged by Francis? So, was Francis the one who framed Alexander?
Matthew had already guessed that Francis had his hands in everything, but he didn't figure out what motive he had. After all, the
poison in his body had not yet cleared up at that time. Wasn't he worried that Harper would refuse to treat him after he recklessly
framed Alexander?
"Have you figured out the relationship between Francis and the Scarlet Devils?"
"I can't find any clues," Howard said frankly. "I can't even find any clues about the relationship between Francis and anyone
else."
Harper sighed and thought, 'That's not strange. Francis, who had been silent for so many years, suddenly took action. He must
have been well prepared. How could he pretend to be so innocent?'
She was a little upset, but quickly restrained her sadness. She had no reason to expect someone to be kind, but the feeling of
being deceived was painful to her.
"Don't feel sad for him. He counts for nothing," Matthew comforted Harper, holding her hands.

the south region." After hearing that, Harper looked at him and said, "You don't have to be responsible for that..." "After all, he raised me for many years, and I have to do something for the Chu Clan," Howard said
