Forensic Imperial Concubine

Chapter 670 The Death Bell Rang (Part One)

In the largest brothel of the imperial capital, Lucas was lying on the soft bed of Yvette, the top courtesan in the establishment. The bleeding on his forehead was seeping through the bandage, but it seemed that he didn't really give a damn about it. He simply lay on the soft bed, listening to the music from the zither Yvette was playing. The glass in his hand was already empty, but no wine was poured into it. At that moment, his mind seemed to have wandered off somewhere else.

When the piece of music came to an end, Lucas still didn't say a word. Noticing that, Yvette stopped playing the zither completely. Standing up, she walked toward Lucas and took a seat beside him. "You look so lost in thought even though you've just come back to the imperial capital. It seems that there must be a beauty in the Stream County that you're thinking of day in and day out."

As Lucas heard that, a glimmer of light flashed across his eyes. He shook the glass in his hand with a straight face, which seemed rather different from his usual playful look. "I'm thinking about Lilian's marriage," he flatly told her.

"Your Highness, the Bright Dynasty is facing both internal and external problems, so it's a good strategy for Princess Lilian to marry the emperor of the Great Jade Kingdom in order to make peace with them. Why are you so worried about it?" Yvette asked in confusion.

As a bitter smile crept onto his face, Lucas replied, "You don't know anything about Rolando. To give you an idea, that man is comparable to Uncle Matthew. He is too full of himself. If he actually had a crush on Lilian, I wouldn't have been against her marriage to him. However, he is cruel and ruthless, and this would be nothing more than a political marriage for the sake of the peace between the two countries."

"But Princess Lilian was the one who volunteered to marry him herself. Who knows? Maybe they'll fall in love with each other and have a happy ending despite their marriage beginning with political interest."
