Forensic Imperial Concubine

"Will she show it to the world?" Lucas asked. He was curious about what Harper would do with the imperial edict as she was someone who never acted according to common principles.

Ignoring his question, Matthew gave him a cold look and asked, "Do you want to go back to the imperial capital? Or are you planning to hide in the procession and go to the Great Jade Kingdom with us?"
