"What?" The expression on Rolando's face instantly changed when he heard the news. Immediately, he stood up and said,
"Harper, you'd better go to the palace with me. After all, you're an outstanding physician. And Lilian will feel less worried once
she sees you."
Harper hesitated for a while but eventually nodded her head in agreement. Together with Rolando, she took Forsythia with her
on their way to the Great Jade Kingdom's palace. After all, Lilian came from the Bright Dynasty and was Matthew's niece, so
Harper couldn't just sit by and watch. If something terrible happened to Lilian at that moment, it would be extremely unfortunate
for the Bright Dynasty.
Luckily, Harper's residence was not far from the gate of the capital. The carriage went straight to the palace, unimpeded.
Besides, Rolando was with her, so nobody dared stop her from entering the capital.
Harper lifted the curtain of the carriage and looked outside. It was very late in the night by then. Naturally, she couldn't see
anybody outside. Under the dim candlelight, she could only hear the sound of the carriage's wheels galloping forward in a rush.
Inside the carriage, Rolando had an impassive expression on his face. Harper thought that he was worried about Lilian, so she
tried to comfort him by saying, "Don't worry. Everything will be alright."
Shifting his eyes to Harper's face, Rolando briefly said, "I hope so."
Neither of them uttered one more word throughout their short journey. After entering the palace, they went to where Lilian had
been residing right away. After the imperial physician gave a diagnosis and some treatment for her, Lilian was then sitting feebly

on the bed. Her face was filled with joy when she saw Rolando enter the room.
"Your Majesty," she greeted him.
Rolando walked steadily and sat down by the bedside. "What happened? Why did you feel uncomfortable so abruptly? Aren't

Lilian said, "No, it's my fault. I was careless. I slipped and fell on the ground. That's why I felt uncomfortable. It had nothing to do with the maids. The imperial physician has checked my condition and said that it was nothing serious. So you don't have to worry about anything." Rolando breathed a sigh of

way, have a look. There's someone who came to visit you." Following his line of sight, Lilian shifted her eyes to the door. She immediately saw Harper leaning against the door. She had her arms crossed over her chest

still so active and lively like a child."
Lilian sheepishly smiled and responded, "You always like making fun of me, Aunt Harper."
"Oh I wouldn't dare to do that to you," Harper said while sitting down by the bedside. In order to make sure that Lilian was fine,
she even felt her pulse. Then she said, "Yeah, the baby is fine. Don't worry."
"I'm not worried at all, Aunt Harper, because you're here with me. Now that you're here, Uncle Matthew must have arrived as
well," Lilian cheerfully said.
"No, he hasn't. Strangely enough, he left the imperial capital of the Bright Dynasty earlier than I did. But when I arrived, they

believe he will certainly come before your coronation ceremony as the empress." Handing a small porcelain bottle to Lilian, Harper continued, "Take one pill each day for the sake of your baby. The pills can prevent a miscarriage." With a smile, Lilian took the bottle in her hands. She then said, "Thank you, Aunt Harper. By the way, would you please stay with me in the palace? His Majesty is busy every single day and he's always nowhere to be found. It's so boring to be alone." "Nonsense. I have never been too busy that you can't find me anywhere. You're hurting
