Forensic Imperial Concubine

Derrick was extremely angry. He cursed in mind that Victoria was so useless. She failed to stop Matthew and made his Black Flag Army show up here. Considering that the powerful Black Flag Army was here, he knew that Victoria had been defeated. Thus, the best option for him was to retreat for the time being. As long as he was alive, he still had a chance to make his way back.

With that thought in mind, Derrick intended to retreat and run away immediately. However, as soon as he moved, an iron net fell from the sky and trapped him tightly.

"Bastard, you have been captured!"

Joshua snorted. He had guessed that Derrick cherished his life very much. When he found himself in a disadvantageous situation, he would definitely find a way to escape. So Joshua had prepared to prevent his escape in advance. As long as Derrick wanted to escape, he would definitely be a rat in the hole!

The net was made of iron. Thus, no matter how hard he tried, Derrick couldn't break it and his face turned livid. "You can't kill me. I am the only one who knows where the secret treasure house of the Qin Clan is hidden," Derrick said, staring at Joshua hatefully.

Joshua squatted in front of Derrick and said, "You such a fool; do you think Princess Harper can order us to kill you here if she doesn't know the hiding place of the treasure?"

"So, it's Harper who wants to kill me!" Derrick was shocked. The reason he dared to make such a mess in the Phoenix City was that he had firmly believed Harper would not kill him, but now it turned out he was completely wrong. After all, Harper was a heartless person. She had killed his father. Thus, she would never show mercy to him.

"Please let me go, and I'll take you to find the treasure," Derrick pleaded at once.

"I'm not the kind who likes treasures!" Joshua spat on Derrick's face and broke the sinews of his right hand with a sword. Derrick was both painful and furious, but he couldn't resist. Holding his wrist, he wished he could tear Joshua to pieces.

"Don't worry, Lord Derrick. What I'm good at is to torture people, making him feel that death is better than being alive. You'll soon beg me to kill you!" Joshua dragged the iron net to the lord's mansion.

"Tsk-tsk, our general must be itching again. This time, the lord would have a lot to suffer. I've never seen anyone who won't beg for mercy in front of our general!" one of Joshua's subordinates exclaimed.

When Harper sent people to escort Victoria back to the Phoenix City, the rebellion in City had already been suppressed. But when she saw the lord of Phoenix City who was tormented badly, Harper's mouth twitched slightly and she whispered in Matthew's ear, "Darling, I think you'd better find a wife for Joshua, in case he may suffer from some unknown illness after being single for too long time."

Matthew checked Joshua from head to toe, who was still excited about his masterpiece. Joshua didn't have the slightest idea that Matthew had already planned to find a tough woman to discipline him. How dare he make the lord look so bloody and show it to Harper when knowing that she was pregnant?
