Forensic Imperial Concubine

Chapter 731 More Confusions Arise (Part One)

That day, batches of medicinal herbs arrived at the yard where Harper lived. The soldiers guarding the general's mansion were quite taken aback because even though they were in the Birch Pass, the medicinal herbs were very rare for them to see. In addition, the sultry weather in the south domain all year round caused the air to be filled with miasmas. As a result, numerous people died on a daily basis.

"Have you ever smelled medicine this good before? You must be kidding. From what I can smell, she's cooking something delicious," another guard responded while sniffing the air around him.

"The only thing you can think about is food. That's exactly the reason you're assuming that it's food."

"Excuse me, food isn't my only expertise. I know a great deal about fighting as well!"

The first thing he noticed was that only Matthew was there. At that moment, the man was reading the official report. When he saw Luther come in, he looked up at him but only for a brief second before he continued to review the report. "I will go to the South Kingdom tomorrow. This time, I may encounter some incidents on the way. Whatever happens, you must keep and protect the Birch Pass. If anything changes, you should prepare to provide assistance at any time,"
