Forensic Imperial Concubine

Francis stared at Lucas who was crying so much and sighed. "Go back to the palace right now. You're the only one missing. Father loved you the most when he was alive. You should go and see him for the last time."

During the entire journey to the palace, Lucas was crying helplessly. Unconcerned about his image and composure, he wiped his tears with his clothes. When Francis noticed this, he looked at his younger brother with a frown. Lucas had always been profligate. Who would have thought that he would be so shattered about the death of the emperor? In fact, he must be the only one who was genuinely disheartened about it!

Lucas blew his nose with a handkerchief and continued crying. He then said, "Francis, how did our father pass away? He was fine yesterday. If I had known that this would happen, I wouldn't have been mad at him and run to the brothel. Even if Father wanted to kill me, I would have shamelessly stayed in the Tranquil Hall."

In an ambiguous tone, Francis responded, "Don't worry; you're not alone in your sentiments. I'm also surprised. Who would have thought that Felix hated our father so much since he was deprived of his title as the crown prince? With deep hatred, he sneaked into the palace to assassinate our father. When I arrived, our father was already dead and Felix was about to flee so I killed him on the spot. I didn't have a choice."

Lucas was so stunned so he asked, "How could that be possible? How could Felix do that?"

"I can't believe it either. Our father had been so merciful to him. He didn't even punish Felix with a death sentence after he tried to murder him. But still, without an ounce of guilt or shame in his body, Felix took our father's life. If I had known that he would do that, I shouldn't have interfered and pleaded our father's forgiveness for him." Tears fell from the corner of Francis' eyes. He wiped them off his face and turned away from Lucas. It was like he didn't want anyone to see him in a sorrowful and regretful state.
