Forensic Imperial Concubine

In the Phoenix House, Harper's imposter was reading a medical book. She had been told that Harper did not have many hobbies. Reading medical books was one of her few hobbies, so she pretended to read medical books as well. Nina went to the window and shut it. "The rain is becoming very heavy. Your Highness, I'll get you a cloak, in case you feel cold."

"All right," Harper's imposter said without raising her head. In the past few days, Matthew hadn't visited the Phoenix House. Or to be more precise, she hadn't seen him since the emperor's birthday banquet.

Nina went out briskly to fetch the cloak. Angelica came in with ginseng soup. She stood beside her, trying to think of something to say. However, she didn't dare interrupt the false Harper, who seemed to be lost in thought. Therefore, Angelica could only look at the imposter with her innocent eyes.

Her gaze was so intense that the false Harper couldn't ignore it anymore. She actually preferred to avoid speaking whenever possible, because the more she spoke out, the greater the risk of giving away her true identity. But sometimes she still had to respond to her maids, because too much silence would seem strange and also arouse suspicion. "Why are you staring at me like this?" she finally asked.

Angelica opened her mouth and was about to speak, but she saw Nina coming in with a cloak in her hand. Angelica shut her mouth right away and didn't dare to speak anymore. Nina put the cloak on the false Harper and said, "Your Highness, what would you like to have for lunch today? I'll tell Anabel to prepare it."

"Anything. Is Matthew back now?" she asked.

"Not yet. The rain is falling heavily. I guess His Highness will come home late," Nina replied, glancing at Angelica. "Angelica, you should also go to the kitchen to help. Don't disturb Her Highness if you have nothing else to do here."

Angelica looked again at the false Harper, and then looked back at Nina before she finally walked out slowly.
