Forensic Imperial Concubine

She was confused. No matter how many pages she turned, all those were left blank. Even though this made her feel frustrated, she didn't want to give up. She kept on turning the pages, finding one blank page after another. Finally, on the last page, she found a strange picture. "This is…" she murmured in hesitation.

"It may be how the Sacred Seal looks. Based on this information, it wouldn't be that difficult for you to find what you want," Matthew said in a firm tone. "But, it's never that easy to find such a small object."

Harper gave a bitter smile. It would be difficult to search for such a small thing in the world. It was like searching for a needle in a haystack. The two parts of the Sacred Seal must have been kept in hiding in the secret and vital places of the South Kingdom and the Wonder Kingdom, just like where the Heavenly Books had been kept.

"I'm afraid that'd be all for today. Let's leave now," Harper said as she put the book back to the shelf and took her hand back. Suddenly, something rolled down from the shelf and fell into her hand. She looked at the dark thing in her hand, brought it closer to her eye, and observed it carefully. "What's it?" she asked in confusion.

"It looks to be a tripod…" Matthew said, with doubt in his voice. It was covered with verdigris, and didn't seem like something precious. But why was it kept here? "It might be something related to the Qin Clan," he added suspiciously.

Harper inspected it, but couldn't find anything of interest. She was about to put it back, but Matthew stopped her. "Don't put it back. Take it with you. If it's something from the Qin Clan, we may find it useful at some point of time."

Harper hesitated for a moment, and then took it into her pocket. Matthew was right. Although it looked tattered and didn't worth much, it must be something of importance since it was kept here. Besides, everyone cherished one or the other things from the Qin Clan. Probably, it might turn out to be of great use in the future.

Outside the gate of the Secret Pavilion, Lucas and the chief guard of the pavilion were standing on either side of the door, but they didn't talk with each other. The door opened, and Harper and Matthew walked out. Then, Lucas and the guard turned to look at the two, eagerly wanting to know whether they had found something useful.

Harper, with all due respect, let me remind you that no matter whom it belonged to originally, you can't take it away as long as it belongs to the Secret Pavilion." After she finished speaking, she reached out and tried to take the little tripod away from Harper. However, Harper moved her wrist and the tripod in her hand was thrown out. The guard leaped, intending to grab it. But Harper
