Forensic Imperial Concubine

Noticing that Francis was observing him, Zack immediately slowed down his pace. He stopped tapping on the table and pulled his hand back into his sleeve. Now that Francis had the testamentary edict of the late emperor and was named as his legal successor, he would officially become the new emperor after the official ceremony.

"Your Highness, the preparation for your enthronement is almost complete, and the remains of Prince Lucas have been buried according to the rituals. But the investiture of the empress…" The minister of the Ministry of Rites was in a dilemma. Although Harper and Matthew were divorced, it was impossible to change the fact that she was married. A married woman was not qualified to be the empress as she couldn't be a motherly model of the empire.

"The investiture of the empress and the enthronement have to be carried out at the same time. Is there any problem?" Francis asked, looking at the minister softly.

The minister was suddenly under tremendous pressure. He wiped the cold sweat from his forehead and said, "Your Highness, but the relationship between the candidate for the empress and you…"

"The investiture day will also be our wedding day. After we get married, she will be my wife. Do you have any questions, minister?" Francis asked in a calm tone. No one really understood what his real intentions were.

When the imperial censor saw the minister's hesitation, he stepped in and pointed out at once, "Your Highness, Harper Chu used to be the wife of Prince Matthew. She was married before. So, she doesn't have the qualification to be with you or become the empress or the motherly model of the empire. I don't think Harper is qualified to be the empress!"

Francis gave a cold stare at the censor. He didn't care who Harper had married. His only considerations were her capabilities and ambition. Of course, he also wanted her to care for him. It didn't matter for him if her care was short, but he was willing to do everything to make it longer.
