Forensic Imperial Concubine by Erika Black

Chapter 673

Francis stared at Lucas who was crying so much and sighed. "Go back to the palace right now. You're the only one missing.
Father loved you the most when he was alive. You should go and see him for the last time."
During the entire journey to the palace, Lucas was crying helplessly. Unconcerned about his image and composure, he wiped his
tears with his clothes. When Francis noticed this, he looked at his younger brother with a frown. Lucas had always been
profligate. Who would have thought that he would be so shattered about the death of the emperor? In fact, he must be the only
one who was genuinely disheartened about it!
Lucas blew his nose with a handkerchief and continued crying. He then said, "Francis, how did our father pass away? He was
fine yesterday. If I had known that this would happen, I wouldn't have been mad at him and run to the brothel. Even if Father
wanted to kill me, I would have shamelessly stayed in the Tranquil Hall."
In an ambiguous tone, Francis responded, "Don't worry; you're not alone in your sentiments. I'm also surprised. Who would have
thought that Felix hated our father so much since he was deprived of his title as the crown prince? With deep hatred, he sneaked
into the palace to assassinate our father. When I arrived, our father was already dead and Felix was about to flee so I killed him
on the spot. I didn't have a choice."
Lucas was so stunned so he asked, "How could that be possible? How could Felix do that?"
"I can't believe it either. Our father had been so merciful to him. He didn't even punish Felix with a death sentence after he tried

to murder him. But still, without an ounce of guilt or shame in his body, Felix took our father's life. If I had known that he would do
that, I shouldn't have interfered and pleaded our father's forgiveness for him." Tears fell from the corner of Francis' eyes. He
wiped them off his face and turned away from Lucas. It was like he didn't want anyone to see him in a sorrowful and regretful

in front of the emperor. When Lilian saw that Lucas had come back, she looked at him with so much worry. She wanted to say something, but in the end, stopped herself from doing so. The entire Immortal Hall

like a small family. When Francis came in, he knelt down immediately. Even though he looked steady while on his knees, his face was filled with the sorrow of losing a beloved one. Meanwhile, Sherry and Monica were crying so hard that they passed out and were sent

little to ease the pain. When he caught a glimpse of Harper, he winked at her without any hint of sadness in his face. Harper
thought that he looked the same as usual. However, when she noticed that he was gritting his teeth, she knew that he was
having difficulties because he had never knelt for such a long time.
"Someone, come here," Harper stated, not too loud and not too soft. Jason saw that she uttered something so he was wondering
what Harper wanted to do.
"Your Highness," a servant responded.

In fact, Jason's body was slightly skewed. Then, the expression on his face froze since everyone was watching him. Immediately, he knelt with a perfect posture like Francis. Meanwhile, he sent daggers with his eyes at Harper's direction and thought, 'You ruthless little woman. How could you trick me!' Francis turned to look at Jason. The latter was almost bursting into tears, but he didn't dare to offend Harper. After all, now that the emperor had gone, it would be quite disadvantageous to
