Forensic Imperial Concubine by Erika Black

Chapter 744

A strange emotion flashed in the Holy Maiden's eyes, but it disappeared in an instant. Even so, Harper still caught sight of it.
Because of that, she felt curious and wondered if the Holy Maiden was happy to hear that she was married.
"Your husband must treat you very well," the Holy Maiden said. The women in the South Kingdom were actually very open-
minded. Many of them would go out to pick medicinal herbs to help support the family. Moreover, there were a lot of female
shamans in the entire place. They started to learn some poisoning skills since they were children. Such skills could not only hurt
people, but save them from various diseases and conditions as well.
The Holy Maiden closed her eyes and carefully sniffed her surroundings. "You have a faint smell of medicine. Are you a
shaman?" she asked.
"I'm afraid I can't be called a shaman. I only like dealing with medicinal herbs. Some of them should be treated in various ways in
order to preserve them very well. I have also been educated with medical effects by physicians, so that I can help my husband
with our livelihood. As time goes by, it seems like my body has absorbed the smell of medicine," Harper lied without batting an

While listening to Harper, the Holy Maiden nodded her head. It seemed like she believed what Harper said. However, Harper

"I wanted to leave when all the medicinal herbs that we brought are sold. But my husband said that we should wait until the
Worship Ceremony is over," Harper answered with a simple smile. And just like that, the two women sat together while talking
about everything for two hours.

Harper couldn't count how many times she had been surprised that day. However, that invitation must be the most overwhelming of all. "Your Grace, the Starry Palace is a holy place. How can

instead of Matthew, who was always by Harper's side, Becky instantly had an impulse to embarrass Harper.
"What are you doing? Have you realized that it's not good for you to be extremely jealous so you found a concubine for your
husband? Are you doing this in order to make him love you more?" Becky taunted Harper with outrageous questions. She then
looked at the face of the Holy Maiden and exclaimed, "What a very beautiful catch! Where did you find her? In a brothel?"
"How dare you?!" Harper scolded her.
Slap! As soon as Harper finished speaking, the Holy Maiden slapped Becky right across her face. She did it so quickly that

had been slapped. "How dare you hit me?! Do you know that I'm a distinguished guest of Princess Diana from the Bright Dynasty?" The Holy Maiden snorted before telling her, "Diana?
