Forensic Imperial Concubine

Chapter 766 The Mutiny In Birch Pass (Part Two)

Upon hearing that, Matthew didn't show any expression on his face or even a bit of reaction. Fred thought that he hadn't made it clear enough, so once again, he said in a soft tone, "Your Highness, the soldiers in the Birch Pass are having a mutiny. Luther killed two generals. And now, he's leading two hundred thousand soldiers in a rebellion!" Exclusive content © by Nô(v)el/Dr/ama.Org.

"I understand." The door of the library was still closed. With utmost concentration, Matthew continued to sit and stare at the exact spot where Harper vanished.

The corners of Fred's mouth twitched while he tried to think about the situation at hand. At the very most, he wanted to ask Matthew, 'Your Highness, did you really understand what I just said? If you allow me, I have more details about it. The riot broke out in the Birch Pass because Prince Francis was rushing there. Once he joins up with Luther, things will become rather tricky. Shawn alone can't defeat the two. Although the three hundred thousand soldiers of the Black Flag Army have already been lurking around in secret, they are not powerful enough to defeat anyone without you as their chief commander. Therefore, the Black Flag Army is of little value to Shawn!'

"Your Highness, Joshua won't follow Marquis Shawn's orders," Fred kindly reminded his master. He refused to give up on trying to get Matthew's attention. He thought, 'If not a single soldier follows Marquis Shawn's command, how can he fight against the two hundred thousand soldiers that are being led by Luther? He's merely going to be drowned by the saliva of so many soldiers.'

With a frown, Matthew said, "I perfectly remember that I gave him the right to act according to his own judgment!"

"Your Highness, I'm sorry but that doesn't mean he could command our Black Flag Army."

"Send him the Black Flag Token then!" Matthew impatiently ordered. He had to stay here, or he wouldn't be able to forgive himself if anything bad happened to Harper.

Looking at the direction of the library, Fred asked, "Your Highness, did you forget that the Black Flag Token is in the library as well?"

Matthew immediately remembered that he had given the token to Harper before their wedding ceremony. It was her amulet and since then, she had always kept it with her. Back then, when his detoxifying process went wrong, to keep his mansion safe, Harper handed it over to Zack. Now, she was trapped inside the library, and certainly, she was carrying the token with her!

Matthew gnashed his teeth ferociously. He was annoyed by how useless Shawn was with military concerns, because he actually allowed Luther and his soldiers to organize a mutiny. Now, Matthew had to go back to the Birch Pass to clear up this mess.

"Your Highness?" Fred urged.

"Are the twelve secret guards in here?"

"Yes, Your Highness." Right then, twelve shadows appeared around him.

"Guard this place to protect Harper. If she gets hurt, I'll hold you responsible." Then he stood up, turned to Lance, and said, "I temporarily allow my wife to be in your kingdom for a few days. I'm going to say this for the last time so you'd better remember. If anything bad happens to her, I will destroy your entire kingdom!"

Lance didn't respond. Meanwhile, Diana gritted her teeth while glaring at Matthew. Ignoring her, Matthew briefly glanced around the hall, looked at Miguel, Kile, and then at the library, thinking anxiously, 'Harp, wait for me. I'll be back soon.' After that, he immediately left with Fred.

While waving his fan, Miguel stated, "Well, Prince Matthew has left. I'm exhausted, so I'm going back for a rest. Bye." Then he turned to Kile and asked, "Are you going to leave as well, Prince Kile?"

"No, my beauty is still inside so I'll stay here. I'm not leaving," Kile refused right away. Arms folded across his chest, Kile started to murmur to himself, "Beauty, you see, I have never given up on you. Only the people who once claimed to love you are not here. It is only I who loves you and will never give up on you. When you come out, you just need to leave your husband and go back to the Wonder Kingdom with me."

The corner of Miguel's mouth unconsciously twitched. 'Such a shameless person Prince Kile is. The only one who is taking advantage of the couple's peril is him. But the problem is, who should be responsible for what happened to Harper? Is it really not the South Kingdom's doing?' Miguel quickly analyzed the situation in his mind.

He cast a few glances at the Holy Maiden and Lance and found the shock on their faces was real. It seemed like they didn't do it on purpose. They, too, didn't expect that Harper would be sucked into the library.

With a smile slowly appearing on Miguel's lips, York approached him and asked, "Master, if we're leaving like this, aren't you afraid that His Majesty will be mad at us if he finds it out?"

Miguel sneered, "Be mad at us? You saw the fighting skills of that woman with your own eyes. Do you think you're a match for her?"

York carefully thought about it for a while. 'I don't think I'm a match for Harper. When she was fighting against Francis, she was able to block another woman's fatal attack! It goes to show that her martial arts skills and reaction time are quite superior. Thus, she wouldn't have been defeated by the royal secret guards of the Bright Dynasty. Or if she were, it wouldn't be easy for the guards.'

"Master, do you mean Princess Harper broke His Majesty's hand on purpose?" This was indeed a piece of surprising news to York. 'If that is the truth, this woman is extremely vicious indeed. She even plotted against others at the cost of her own life!'

"She was sucked into the library. If the South Kingdom didn't plot against her, she must've done it to herself. As for why she entered the library, her target could only be the Sacred Seal held by the royal family of the South Kingdom!" By then, the smile on Miguel's face turned cold. "It is said that the blood of the Qin Clan is cold. I don't know if her blood is the same!"

York was shocked by his master's cold and appalling smile. 'Every time master wants to kill a person, that same smile always appears on his face. But still, His Majesty cares about Princess Harper so much that if master were to do something to hurt her, His Majesty would be enraged.'

Right away, York reminded Miguel, "Master, please think about His Majesty! If you recklessly did something that might hurt her, His Majesty would certainly throw away the friendship between the two of you."
