Forensic Imperial Concubine by Erika Black

Chapter 800

After giving it some thoughts, Harper accepted the invitation, saying, "Yes, of course. That would be work for me." She, then
stood up, calling out, "Fred, let's leave now."
With the sword resting on his shoulder, Fred followed Harper out of the palace. The murderous look on his face remained
unchanged. Catherine watched Harper leave the palace and regretted having missed the opportunity to trap her. At the moment,
Catherine had to tend to her mother. Her mother had no idea about her misdeeds, though she must be speculating something
after what she had witnessed. If her mother knew what she had done, she would surely be very disappointed.
"Mother, I..." Catherine then stammered. She didn't know where to begin with.
"Catherine, bring your sister back to the palace. I am going to pay a visit to your father," the queen said tenderly. She came close
to Catherine and flicked her hair behind her ear just like she would cajole a little girl. "You should never forget that we are a
family. We must always support each other."
Catherine felt the heaviness in her heart and her vision became blurred. Her throat constricted and she could not utter a single
word. After that, the queen turned around and went to Lance's palace. It had been more than ten years since she visited his
palace for the last time. Now as she walked to that palace, it felt as if a lifetime had passed.
As the sound from outside reached Lance's ears, he had a strong urge to walk outside to welcome his wife inside his palace.
However, after struggling a lot, he could only open his eyes. He was very excited to see the queen inside his palace after so
many years. "What brings you here?" he asked, trying to smile through his pains.
"It was so noisy outside, that I had to come out of my palace to see what was going on," the queen replied. She then took a seat
on the side of Lance's bed. She lifted his hand and began to feel his pulse skillfully to diagnose him. "You're getting old. You are
poisoned by the venomous insect poison."
"Yes, you are right. I'm getting old. And you're as beautiful and gentle as before. Time and tide do not wait for me. But it seems to

have stopped for you," Lance replied, his voice still sounding weak.
"Your Majesty, I saw her inside the palace today," the queen said softly. "You must have seen her before if I am not wrong."
"Yes. I have," Lance said twisting his lips into a bitter smile. "I never expected to meet a descendant of the Qin Clan in this way.
Strangely, they have their lineage still living in this world. I thought it to be a mere coincidence. After all, there are many similar
looking people in the world. I didn't expect that she would really be the descendant of the Qin Clan. No wonder she was able to

corrected her for her reckless behaviors so many times, but she still turns a deaf ear to my words. Catherine is going to have a
hard time getting along with her," the queen replied. She still considered the fight between her daughters to be a minor issue. In
her eyes, no matter how much difference they might be having, they were a family, and they could never turn against each other.
They can always forgive each other and come together as a family.
"No, it's not like that anymore," Lance corrected the queen. "Diana has become a sensible girl now. She can take care of herself
and will not be so reckless anymore. You will be surprised if you meet her now." He then used all his strength to move his hand.
He tried hard for a long time but he found himself too weak to move even a finger. Then, he sighed helplessly, "Ah, I'm getting
old. I'm becoming more useless day by day. Now I don't even have the strength to raise my hand."
"Don't worry. The poison in your body will be detoxified soon. You are the king of the South Kingdom for the time being. No
