Forensic Imperial Concubine by Erika Black

Chapter 687

"Will she show it to the world?" Lucas asked. He was curious about what Harper would do with the imperial edict as she was
someone who never acted according to common principles.
Ignoring his question, Matthew gave him a cold look and asked, "Do you want to go back to the imperial capital? Or are you
planning to hide in the procession and go to the Great Jade Kingdom with us?"
"I'd like to hear your opinion first," Lucas replied. He didn't speak out his plan. Under the current situation, the best option for him
was to listen to Matthew before deciding.
After a moment's silence, Matthew proposed, "I think you should go back to the imperial capital and cooperate with Harp. She
may need your help."
Lucas always knew how much Matthew valued his wife. But he never expected that Matthew would value her this much. This
was a critical moment for all of them. Yet, he asked him to go back to the imperial capital just to help Harper. To be honest, Lucas
was shocked to see Matthew's devotion to his wife. He sighed, "Your trust for her is absolute."
"If you are not willing to cooperate with her, then don't go back to the imperial capital as you would only create trouble by acting
at your own will," Matthew commented.
"Uncle Matthew, don't worry. As long as Aunt Harper orders me, I will obey her without any question. I will follow her orders no
matter what they are," Lucas promised as he raised his hand in an oath. "Please be rest assured and don't worry. I'll listen to her
obediently!"
The shameless look on Lucas' face made the corners of Matthew's mouth twitch. "Harp is right. Your father had a good eye to
choose you as his successor."

Upon hearing that, Lucas was shocked and stunned. Did he mean that Harper would have no objection to him being the next
emperor?
"Isn't Aunt Harper always getting along with Francis? Then how come...?" Lucas questioned in surprise. He had thought that
Harper was a close friend of Francis. Thus, he thought she supported him. If it was not for the fact that Matthew had tried so hard

supporting Francis. Instead, she had a high regard for him! That was quite surprising for him. "Well, she and Francis... It's hard to explain the relationship between them with a few words. The only thing you

would stand a chance. After all, he had the Black Flag Army comprising three hundred thousand strong warriors. That was enough for him to wipe out all his enemies in the Bright Dynasty. Matthew just snorted with a disdainful look, "The position of the emperor is bound with too many restrictions. I don't want myself to be

that his words made Matthew angry and the only thing he could do now was to stay away from him.
"Castrate Francis for me," Matthew said in a cold voice.
Lucas couldn't help but drop his jaw when he heard this terrible request. He then hesitated and said, "Well... I don't think it would
be possible. How about you raise another one?"
Matthew then snorted through his nose with contempt and said, "Humph! Then tell me, what is it that you can do for me?"
"I can deliver a message for you!" Lucas replied proudly. "I can serve as a messenger to deliver your letter to Aunt Harper. You
guys haven't seen each other for quite a while. Aren't you worried about her situation in the imperial capital? I can also keep an
eye on her for you and keep you updated about her every day! How do you like this idea?"

me to," he said, struggling to make him useful to Matthew. "Well, then you'd be courting death by doing that," Matthew responded with no hesitation. "All you need to do
