Chapter 868 Emergency In The Harmony Pce (Part Two)
"Yes, Your Highness."
Forsythia immediately turned around to catch up with Lilian, while Harper continued her way to the
Harmony Pce. When she pushed the door of the pce open, she saw a pot of blooming sweet-
scented osmanthus on the table. The fragrance overflowed and filled the entire room.
"Maids," she called out.
"Your Highness."

"Where did the flowere from?" Harper asked in confusion. Before they went out, the flower hadn''t
been in there.
"The osmanthus in the Imperial Garden is blooming well, so the Imperial Household Bureau sent a pot
in here. It must have been ordered by His Majesty." Because it was merely a pot of flower sent from the
Imperial Household Bureau, the maid had not inquired about the details.
"I see, you can leave now." Harper took the flower to a table by the window. She liked the light
fragrance of the flowers very much. Since she felt bored sitting there alone, she picked up a book and
began to read. As time passed by, she didn''t notice that the incense which was burning in the censer
that day was different from the usual.
Meanwhile, Rndo was discussing state affairs with the courtiers when a maid suddenly came. She
then asked Sean, "Lord Sean, is His Majesty busy right now?"
"Aren''t you Miss Sonia?" Since Rndo cared a lot about thedy staying in the Harmony Pce,
Sean had acquired the information about all of the maids and eunuchs working in there. As soon as he
saw Sonia, a maid from the Harmony Pce, he immediately understood that it must have something
to do with Harper. "Does Lady Harper need something?" he asked.
"My Lord, Lady Harper fainted."
"What?" Sean eximed in surprise. He knew that a piece of news like that was very serious. If
something bad happened to Harper, Rndo might kill all of them. With such thoughts in mind, he
entered the room in a hurry, despite the fact that Rndo was still discussing the state affairs with the
courtiers.
"Your Majesty." Sean directly interrupted the discussion as soon as he was inside the room. Miguel
unpleasantly frowned and said to him, "Sean, you''re getting more and more unruly as time goes on."
"What''s the matter?" Rndo asked, turning his attention to Sean.
"Sonia, a maid from the Harmony Pce, came and reported that something bad happened in the
Harmony Pce," Sean informed them. He was actually in a dilemma. He didn''t want to upset Miguel,
but he knew that thedy staying in the Harmony Pce was of great importance to Rndo.
As calm as Rndo was a few seconds ago, he rose to his feet and bolted from the room without
saying anything as soon as he heard the words "bad" and "Harmony Pce" in the same sentence. He
disappeared in the blink of an eye, leaving all the courtiers behind while they stared at one another in
disbelief.
"Prime Minister Miguel, His Majesty..." All the people in the room turned to look at Miguel. After all, he
was Rndo''s close friend and he knew the emperor the best. While they were in the middle of
discussing the national affairs, Rndo suddenly left because he was informed that something had
happened to the Harmony Pce. They had all heard that someone was staying in the Harmony
Pce, but none of them knew who it was.
"Let''s just stop where we are today since we''ve all seen what happened. I''m afraid that His Majesty
won''t be in the mood to deal with state affairs today," Miguel said slowly. He then thought to himself,
''Rndo, don''t forget the revenge that you have been nning. Right now, you''re being controlled by a
woman. Don''t you think her influence on you is too much?''
"Prime Minister Miguel, I heard that the Harmony Pce has been upied. She must be a daughter
of an esteemed n. Do you know who she is?" a courtier curiously asked. All the other courtiers
became extremely attentive when they heard the question. They were all curious about which n was
in Rndo''s good graces that he even let her stay in the Harmony Pce. They all knew that the Bliss
Pce was the residence of the empress, but Rndo had paid more attention to the Harmony
Pce.
"A daughter of an esteemed n? You''ll know who she is very soon. But she is not the daughter of any
n," Miguel stated with a sneer.
Upon seeing that Miguel waved his sleeve and left in a very gloomy mood, everyone else could only
look at one another, wondering what he meant. "What does Prime Minister Miguel mean?"
"I don''t know anything about it at all. How can we guess what Prime Minister Miguel is thinking? He''s
always unfathomable."
"Have you heard which n had their daughter enter the pce?"
Everyone shook their heads. One time, they had written a joint letter to Rndo, asking him to select
more beautiful women to fill his harem. As a result, every courtier who had signed the letter was given
ten extremely beautiful women, which created conflicts with their wives. In the end, they had no choice
but to ask Rndo to remove the beautiful women from their families. No one dared mention the matter
of selecting concubines to fill the royal harem again.
"I''m really curious. His Majesty has been doting on Princess Lilian from the Bright Dynasty very much.
If another woman upies the Harmony Pce, why hasn''t she reacted in any way yet?" someone
mumbled. "It''s said that Princess Lilian of the Bright Dynasty is quite hot-tempered. If His Majesty has
really brought a woman and is hiding her in the Harmony Pce, Lady Lilian must have known about it
already."
"Is it possible that the newdy has been brought to the pce by Lady Lilian herself?"
"Do you think Lady Lilian is out of her mind? She''s about to be the empress and on top of that,
she''s pregnant. How could she bring back another woman for His Majesty? She''s going to give birth to
a prince in order to establish her position. How could she find someone topete with herself for His
Majesty''s favor?"
"So, the only possible conclusion is thedy residing in the Harmony Pce was brought back by His
Majesty?" Everyone began to think about this information. If Rndo had brought a woman back to the
pce, could it mean that he had changed his mind and was going to fill his harem with more women?
If so, everyone thought that their daughters would have a chance as well.
