Forensic Imperial Concubine by Erika Black

Chapter 799

Fred had created so much noise inside the Imperial Palace of the South Kingdom that it drew the attention of many people. Even
the queen of the South Kingdom, who was leading her life in seclusion, had also come out of her palace. Her appearance out of
her palace after so many years had taken everyone by surprise.
"Your Majesty!" everyone called out in disbelief.
Harper followed the direction of the crowd's gaze until her eyes met a dignified woman dressed in a white robe. The woman
walked towards them slowly and gracefully. She had a forgiving look on her face. She looked at Catherine and asked,
"Catherine, what are you doing?"
"Mo... mother..." Catherine called out, shocked to see her mother outside after so many years. The queen of the South Kingdom
had not come out of her palace for many years. The last time she was seen outside her palace was when Catherine had become
the Holy Maiden. Since Catherine lived in the Starry Palace, the empress had closed the doors of her palace to the rest of the
world.
The queen came forward and looked at Fred who seemed to be on a rampage to kill everyone who came in his way. A frown
appeared on her calm and placid forehead as she said, "Sir, please stop."
However, Fred turned a deaf ear to her. The queen then turned to the woman who was drinking tea calmly, but she could not see
her face properly as someone stood in front of her. Yet, she addressed her and requested politely, "Can you ask your man to
stop, please?"
"Stop it, Fred," Harper ordered in a lazy tone. "If you don't stop right away, you will face severe consequences."
Fred put his sword down but he was still seething in rage and fighting his impulse to hurl the sword at his enemies. The queen

heaved a sigh of relief to see Fred stop the killing. Then she looked at Catherine and asked tenderly, "Catherine, when did you
come back?"
Catherine opened her mouth to say something but could not utter a word. She remained tongue-tied. The sudden appearance of
her mother who was still untouched by the muck of conspiracy that Catherine had dived so deep in, made it very difficult for her

by her mother. Catherine just lowered her head in silence. The queen looked around and asked, "I don't see Diana here. Where is she?" Catherine's face changed

at her elder daughter. Her smile exuded the confidence that her daughter had grown up to be a responsible member of the royal family and must be guiding the people of the kingdom in the capacity of the Holy Maiden. At the same time, she must be looking after her father and younger sister. Then, the queen turned to Harper and said courteously, "It's so nice to have a guest in our palace today. Where do you come from, if I may ask? And also, why did you instigate your man to do mass killing inside our palace?" Harper signaled Zorro to move to the side so that she could come face to face with the queen. Then, with her chin resting on one of her hands, she replied with a fake smile, "Well, I'm afraid you have to ask your

queen did not doubt that Harper was telling the truth. She did not probe Catherine any further. Instead, she walked to Harper and
said, "Lady..."
But as soon as the queen got a clear view of Harper's face, she got startled. She froze on the spot as if she was struck by
lightning. She stood there staring at Harper's face. She was unable to move, and her eyes were full of shock, excitement, and
incredulity.
"Mother, are you all right?" Catherine was baffled by such an unusual reaction of her mother.
After a few moments, without removing her eyes from Harper, the queen said in a trembling voice, "Catherine, order all the
people here to leave."
"No, Mother, I can't leave you alone with this woman. She is up to no good..." Catherine protested.

beckoned everyone to leave. Harper
