Forensic Imperial Concubine

Chapter 909 Mess The Whole World Up (Part One)

Miguel quickly understood that Harper was only taunting him. As anger took hold of his heart, he thought of what his purpose was, and was able to calm himself down. "His Majesty and you are sharing the Deathly Kalpa. To ensure that it won't hurt His Majesty, I have to arrest you. Lady Harper, I'm so sorry. I'll have to cripple your martial arts and break your limbs before I bring you back to the Great Jade Kingdom."

Harper's eyes immediately turned cold and with a wink of an eye, she launched an attack against Miguel. This stunned Miguel at first, but then he immediately collected himself and fought back. He already sustained a bruise on his face because of this sneak attack.

"Harper Chu!" Miguel snarled.

"I can hear you. You don't have to yell like that," Harper said coldly. "In order to thank you for what you have prepared for me, I will give you a gift. Today, I'll break one of your legs!"

As Harper and Miguel began fighting, the 12 secret guards too started to take on the imperial secret guards led by Miguel simultaneously. With this development, Harper knew she only needed to deal with Miguel.

Miguel perceived Harper as someone who was merely good at martial arts and not a first-class master. The thing he didn't expect was the fact that she was a match for him. If she escaped, he knew that it wouldn't be easy for him to catch her again.

With this thought in his mind, Miguel knew that he had to accomplish what he set out to do right then and there. A murderous look then flashed across his eyes. 'As long as she's not killed, I can use some special moves to injure her and make her less agile!' he thought. He was never an upright man, and just like Rolando, he would do anything as long as he could catch her!

Harper decided not to use her spiritual power, so she was fighting Miguel mainly with her internal force. Miguel's eyes flashed with malice. Suddenly, he launched some kind of powder towards Harper and quickly stepped back. Harper instinctively stepped back as well, waving her sleeves so that the powder would not get anywhere near her. "The Internal Force Ruining Powder! You're good."

Miguel frowned and said, "I forgot you're a physician."

"No offense taken. I'm actually glad that you remembered. Do you remember when I treated your injuries once?" asked Harper slowly.

Miguel asked in surprise, "What did you do to me?"

"I love that you think I'm stupid." Harper sneered. "I acted very friendly towards Rolando because he saved my life twice. Despite that, never have I ever dropped my guard whenever he's around me. From the beginning, I knew that the coronation ceremony he invited me to was a trap of some sort. Matthew tried to tell me that several times, though indirectly, because he was afraid that I might misunderstand him and think he was only trying to sow dissension between me and Rolando. But I knew what was happening, and I never loosen my guard against you two."

"You... you are so scheming."

"Scheming?" Harper snickered. "If I was just a simple-minded woman, I would have already died in the filthy mansion of the Chu Clan. So yes, I am scheming. I'm also heartless, vicious."

Miguel clenched his fists in anger. He still didn't know what Harper did to him and now, he was discovering that he and his emperor had been set up—she had been plotting against them the whole time! 'Maybe even the Heavenly Book was a part of this bitch's plans!' he thought.

"You approached His Majesty..."

"For the sake of the Heavenly Book," Harper replied flatly. "If I wanted to get that myself, I knew it would require an ungodly amount of effort on my part. Because of that, I chose to have Rolando get it for me. But you should note that without me, that book would be useless. No one can solve that book's mystery aside from me. So if you think about it, what happened is actually beneficial to both parties."

"But have you..."

"I'm not a promiscuous person, Miguel. Never was, and never will be. There's only one person in my heart," Harper said calmly. "You know what? We've been talking too much. It's almost time."

"You were only buying time?!" Miguel finally realized what Harper was doing, but it seemed like it was too late. He and his guards were already surrounded by a group of men that he didn't even notice had already shown up. Kile was there, front and center, looking dashing in white. Harper waved at him earnestly, as if he was a longtime friend she was seeing again for the first time.

"Beauty, I'm here to pick you up!" announced Kile as he jumped to Harper's side. "Are you touched?"

Harper rolled her eyes but chuckled a bit. Then, she looked over Kile's shoulders and raised her eyebrows—Howard was behind him. "Hi, brother," she said. Content bel0ngs to Nôvel(D)r/a/ma.Org.

Howard nodded, and Patrick immediately jumped out of his arms into Harper's. She hurriedly caught it, caressed its head, and gave it some pills. "Thank you."

"What about me?" Kile pointed at himself, pouting. He was the one who brought people there to save her!

Harper stretched out her hand and rubbed Kile's head. "Good boy, thank you."

Kile nodded his head without a second thought. But then, after a few seconds, he shook her hand off of him and growled, "I'm not a child anymore, Harper! You have to stop doing that to me!"

Harper giggled. Even though Kile was almost just as old as her, the way he acted could not be more different than how she did. Despite that, for her, it was adorable how his personality directly contrasted with his looks: While he looked incredibly mature, he acted like a child.

Miguel looked at the two happily interacting with one another and asked, "Since when did Prince Kile of the Wonder Kingdom become so close to Lady Harper of Bright Dynasty?"

Kile turned to Miguel, glared at him, folded his arms across his chest, and said, "Who I am on good terms with is none of your business! Seems to me that you're tired of being the prime minister of the Great Jade Kingdom. Do want to be my little eunuch?"

As soon as Miguel heard such insulting words, his face changed dramatically and he snapped, "Kile Mu!"
