Forensic Imperial Concubine

"I envy Lucas immensely," Francis said in a light voice that was just enough for everyone to hear. "He is healthy and carefree all the time, and Father dotes on him endlessly. He has lived the most comfortable life among us."

Felix turned to look at Francis. Although the latter had taken some strides along the road to health, his face still looked somewhat morbidly pale. He looked like a bullied young wife because of his condition, without a trace of masculine spirit.

"How are you getting along with Zack?" Felix asked flatly. He had gone to Matthew's mansion that morning to sound out Matthew's opinion. But as soon as he arrived, he found that Francis was already there, which was quite awkward. After all, their father had already shown his desire for Francis to engage in politics, and Francis' mother came from a powerful clan. If Francis really stepped into the struggle for the throne, he would be a formidable opponent for him.

Felix was dumbstruck. It was impossible for him to believe what Francis said. "Zack has been going to your mansion every day. Playing the game of Go was the only thing he does with you?"

"Yeah. Zack is really a master in doing that. I've been studying tactics with him because I am weak and have nothing better to do, but I'm still no match for him." Francis didn't seem to feel any shame about being no match for Zack. Instead, Zack's superiority in the game of Go just seemed to make Francis admire him all the more.
