Forensic Imperial Concubine

A strange emotion flashed in the Holy Maiden's eyes, but it disappeared in an instant. Even so, Harper still caught sight of it. Because of that, she felt curious and wondered if the Holy Maiden was happy to hear that she was married.

"Your husband must treat you very well," the Holy Maiden said. The women in the South Kingdom were actually very open-minded. Many of them would go out to pick medicinal herbs to help support the family. Moreover, there were a lot of female shamans in the entire place. They started to learn some poisoning skills since they were children. Such skills could not only hurt people, but save them from various diseases and conditions as well.

The Holy Maiden closed her eyes and carefully sniffed her surroundings. "You have a faint smell of medicine. Are you a shaman?" she asked.

"I'm afraid I can't be called a shaman. I only like dealing with medicinal herbs. Some of them should be treated in various ways in order to preserve them very well. I have also been educated with medical effects by physicians, so that I can help my husband with our livelihood. As time goes by, it seems like my body has absorbed the smell of medicine," Harper lied without batting an eye.

"I wanted to leave when all the medicinal herbs that we brought are sold. But my husband said that we should wait until the Worship Ceremony is over," Harper answered with a simple smile. And just like that, the two women sat together while talking about everything for two hours.

about you and your husband come to the Starry Palace as my guests? Let's say, one of these days, before you leave the capital. Please let me entertain you to express my gratitude. What do you think?"

She then looked at the face of the Holy Maiden and exclaimed, "What a very beautiful catch! Where did you

Maiden slapped Becky right across her face. She did it so quickly that Becky wasn't able to avoid it. While looking at the Holy Maiden in disbelief, Becky placed one hand on her cheek which had been slapped. "How dare you hit me?!
