Forensic Imperial Concubine novel Chapter 582

The carriage headed straight out of the imperial city. After moving out of the palace, they changed their conspicuous eunuch uniform and followed the carriage from a safe distance. Fred was a little bit worried, so he said, "Your Highness, we are so far away from them. Are you sure we would be able to follow them?"

"Of course we can," Harper said, looking leisurely at the flock of birds flying above them. She seemed quite pleased, as if she was going for a spring outing.

Fred followed Harper. She changed into men's suit and looked very handsome. Although she had worn a disguise, people on the way glued their eyes upon her due to the imposing feeling she released.

Harper was riding her horse at a slow pace. Suddenly, another carriage passed by them from the opposite direction. The wind blew up the curtain of the carriage, and the people inside saw Harper riding a horse past them. One of the people seated inside the carriage held the curtain with his hand and looked at Harper curiously. Then he said, "It's him."

"Master, who is it?" asked Samuel.

"The person who saved me last time," Felton said slowly, as he watched the horse leave.

"But, I didn't see him," said Samuel.

Felton put down the curtain and kept smiling. "You can't just recognize a person by his appearance. Sometimes, the appearance would deceive you."

Samuel didn't understand what he meant, but scratched his head in confusion, and drove the carriage into the city. At the same time, Harper, leading Fred, left the imperial city and was heading towards her destination.

In the Imperial Palace, the birthday banquet of the emperor had already begun. The courtiers presented their gifts one by one to the emperor. Then, the other invited dignitaries would follow suit. Finally, it would be the turn of people with the highest social status to present their gifts.

"Matthew, what gift have you brought for me?" the emperor asked, looking at his brother.

Matthew stood up, and then said slowly, "It's a firm armor that can protect you. It's invulnerable to spears and swords, and water and fire are simply insusceptible to it."

"Wow, that's impressive. It's your style." The emperor was in a good mood. He smiled while listening to the palace attendant announcing the birthday gifts.

Matthew went back to his seat, but he did not look at Harper who was seated just beside him. He just kept fiddling with the wine glass in his hand, while Harper was quietly enjoying the delicacies being served. As always, she didn't pay much attention to the things happening around.

At that time, Francis stepped forward to present his gift to the emperor and said, "Father, I wish you sound health and happiness in life."

"Francis, what have you brought for me?" the emperor asked softly. His attitude was quite different from the way he treated Felix.
