Forensic Imperial Concubine

Chapter 898 Harmony Palace Is On Fire (Part Two)

"Is it done? If so, let's go!"

Fred glanced at the simple mechanism that Harper set and thought, 'Her Highness is so smart and terrifying. She truly would destroy the Harmony Palace so that Rolando will be unable to find us, as the fire will cover up our traces, making it more difficult for Rolando to find us!'

"Let's go!" With his arms around Harper's waist, Matthew jumped into the hole they had dug beforehand. Any trace left behind was swept by Fred before he disappeared.

Rolando and his officials were discussing the details of tomorrow's coronation ceremony for the empress when Harper and Matthew escaped the Harmony Palace. With him making sure that the Harmony Palace was heavily guarded and that no one could break in or escape, Rolando felt secure that no unprecedented thing would happen. He was sure that Matthew would deem a rescue impossible and that he wouldn't have any choice but to try his luck at tomorrow's ceremony. Because of that, he knew that he must prepare in advance not only to make sure that the ceremony would become a success, but also to secure that Matthew would not return home alive.

"Your Majesty, everything is ready. Do you have anything else to add?" Miguel asked, his face a bit pale. He felt that more things had happened in the last two days than what had happened in the past five years.

Rolando thought it over and said, "Tomorrow, the city gates should not be opened. No one is allowed to leave the capital."

Miguel nodded, understanding why Rolando would order such a thing. If Matthew were to destroy the ceremony tomorrow and run away with Harper, the two of them wouldn't be able to leave the Imperial Capital with the gates closed and guarded. Rolando could order his army to search every corner of the city to find Matthew, killing him the moment he found him.
