Harper looked down and noticed that Jason had been lying motionless on the ground for a long time. So, she asked Barry and
Fred, "Is he dead?"
"Your Highness, he is still alive. He would probably just get severely injured at most," Fred quickly replied. In truth, his conclusion
was decisive yet cold, and no one could tell whether he was joking or not. When Barry heard his response, the corners of his
mouth twitched a bit. Maybe other people would have no idea, but he was well aware that Matthew didn't really hurt Jason that
severely. Jason might get hurt badly, but he was not an incapable man. There was no way he would get killed so easily like this.
"Okay. That's fine, as long as he doesn't die," Harper blurted out.
"It seems that he is not badly hurt after all," Barry added. Jason had already sat up and was getting ready to lend Francis a hand.
Seeing this, Harper ordered in a decisive tone at once, "Fred, go and stop him! Beat and cripple him if you must."
When he heard Harper's words, Jason staggered and fell back to the ground. Then, he shot her an intense glare and yelled out,
"Hey! We have the same master and you are my junior! How could you be so cruel?"
"Whatever you say isn't going to change my mind," Harper flatly said, casting Jason a cold glance. Then, she said to Fred, "Fred,
if he dares to make any sudden movements, feel free to beat him up. For as long as you keep him alive, you can beat him to
your heart's content."
"As you wish, Your Highness," Fred replied and immediately began to warm up his body by stretching his arms. After he was
done, he jumped off at once as if he had actually been looking forward to fighting with Jason for so long. When he got off, he
fight back and beat him up real good. Jason found the whole situation awkward now. Meanwhile, Francis and Matthew were still
fighting fiercely with each other, but Francis was being at a disadvantage now. As the match progressed, he proved to be no
match for Matthew. Matthew, on the other hand, took advantage of this and launched more furious strikes. What was more, he
grabbed the opportunity and slapped Francis in the face real hard twice. It was so hard that Francis' tied-up hair even loosened.
He was such a mess right now. With that, Matthew finally stopped and flew back to Harper's side after he had won. As soon as.
he stepped on the gate tower, he put his arm around Harper's waist and said, "I've slapped him twice for you. Are you satisfied
now?" "Yes, yes, I'm very satisfied," Harper replied, looking quite pleased as she smiled. "Now that you have already taught him
a lesson, why don't you let Lucas take care of everything else? Let's go home, shall we?"
"Okay," Matthew said. The couple was just about to leave. "No, no, no! Uncle Matthew, Aunt Harper, you can't just leave like
this!" Lucas yelled out. There was no way he would agree to that. "If you leave right now, who's going to back me up? I don't
have anyone on my side here. You know what? During the
imperial court session last time, everyone spat at me, saying that I committed heinous crimes. What if they all join forces to gang
up on me after you leave? Please, I need you here."
When they heard this, all the officials turned pale. Back then, they thought it would be a good idea to push Francis into the
throne. At the same time, however, Francis was extremely talented. That was why they decided to impeach Lucas.
Unexpectedly, Lucas turned out to be the successor whom the late emperor had secretly trained.
"Prince Lucas, please forgive us for offending you a lot back then. We only did that because you presented yourself to be such a
because we were disappointed at you for not making any contribution to this country. That was why we had to impeach you for
the sake of the Bright Dynasty. I know that you are a broad-minded man. Please forgive us," one of the ministers cried out.
Lucas, however, wouldn't let those officials go that easily. "Aunt Harper, please stay and help me," he pleaded with such a pitiful
look on his face. Seeing this, Harper helplessly shook her head. She then looked at Matthew and suggested, "Honey, how about
we stay here and
see how this thing goes before we head back? It may be a pity if we leave right now when everything isn't over yet."
"It's fine if that's what you want," Matthew simply replied. It was rare for him to behave so tenderly. Now that they had made up
their minds to stay, they stood still on the tower, watching as though they didn't have anything to do with the issue. But no one
could dare to ignore them. After all, Matthew had an army of three hundred thousand warriors and each of them was capable of
resisting ten ordinary soldiers, making them a force to be reckoned with.
Francis' fair face was now covered with scarlet finger prints, and his messy long hair made him look a little disconcerted.
However, the fire in his eyes was still unyielding. After looking at Harper, he stepped back and waved his hand. "Lucas, you have
committed a crime of treason and staged a rebellion. You are extremely guilty beyond reasonable doubt! What you have done is
unforgivable. I will have you sentenced to death!"
"Wow! I'm so scared," Lucas teased, crossing his arms and pretending to be very afraid, which made others want to burst out
laughing. However, no one dared laugh out loud in such a tense atmosphere.
"Everyone, are you going to join the rebellion with Lucas?" Francis warned in a threatening tone when he saw that his guards
had him completely surrounded.
Lucas, on the other hand, simply snorted coldly as he took out an imperial edict from his pocket, "I have with me Father's
testamentary edict. Moreover, I have the imperial jade seal! Francis attempted to murder the late emperor and other princes.
What he has done is unpardonable. Today, I will make your crime public and have you sentenced according to the law of the
Bright Dynasty! Guards! Seize Francis and his men! Only those who are willing to surrender shall be kept alive!"
