Forensic Imperial Concubine by Erika Black

Chapter 705

It was the evening before the new emperor's enthronement day. Francis brought the empress's robe to Harper in person, and
demanded her to try it on.
Harper took a glance at the robe lazily, and said, "I don't need to try it."
"Well, how do you know if it will suit you if you don't try it?" Francis asked in a low and gentle voice. "Try it, please. If it's not
suiting you, we still have time to get it modified."
"Don't you know whether it is suitable or not?" Harper said as she leisurely placed the black and white stones on the Go board.
"It doesn't matter whether the robe is suitable or not, but what matters is whether the person is suitable."
Francis sat down opposite to Harper and said, "You want to play Go now? Here, I will play with you."
"Don't move!" Harper exclaimed, pushing away his hand from the board. Then she continued to place the black and white stones
on the board in a seemingly irregular manner. However, Francis knew that Harper differed greatly from ordinary women.
Whatever she did, there would be an underlying purpose in it.

Francis analyzed the situation carefully. He couldn't find a way out. It was a game of complete dead end.
"Harper, I see no way out."
Hearing that, she smiled, picked up a stone and placed it in a position. Immediately more than half of the stones on the board got

Francis was dumbfounded to see the sudden change in the situation. After all, the white stones had been in obvious advantage just a moment before. But, as soon as the black stones took the risk and made their next two moves, the white stones were put on the path to ruin. What

miserably."
"Harper, are you implying something?" Francis asked with a gentle smile, concealing his surprise.
Harper really admired Francis' ability of self-deception. "Do you want to take a bet with me?" she asked.
"So what are we going to bet on?" Francis asked curiously.
"That if I can overtly leave the Imperial Palace tomorrow," Harper said slowly. "Do you think I will be able to walk safely out of the
Imperial Palace in Matthew's absence?"

I think you should go back." Francis remained unmoved, staring at the empress's robe. He had imagined for countless times how Harper would
