"It's not a big deal. We used to dissect dead bodies with our teacher while eating our snacks back then," she retorted with a
laugh.
"You learned from a teacher how to dissect a corpse?" Matthew thought about what she said again and again. He realized that
the more he knew about Harper, the less he could understand her. He once thought that she was very fragile, but it turned out
that her martial arts skills were exceptional. She had just been hiding that on purpose. And even more outstanding, she had
inherited the bloodline of the Qin Clan, so she had very rare spiritual power.
Matthew pondered, 'If we are to fight in bed and I exert every single fiber of force that I have now, can I suppress her?'
"Harp, shall we have a competition?" he then asked tentatively.
"In bed?" Harper asked as she already figured out what he was thinking. She rolled her eyes at him and continued, "Don't do
that. Just outside the border of the Birch Pass is the land of South Kingdom. I wonder how many spies from that kingdom there
are in this city. No matter how powerful Luther is, he can't get rid of all of them!"
"I meant fighting. If you want to fight in bed as husband and wife, I'm very much willing to do so. After all, I only have you by my
side." The smile on Matthew's face widened even more.
At that point, it dawned on Harper that there was an underlying meaning in her husband's words. She then stopped eating, put
down her chopsticks, reached out for the table napkin from Forsythia and wiped her mouth. After that, she threw a glare at her

husband and asked, "Are you disappointed at me because I sent away your beautiful younger cousin?"
Matthew blinked his eyes before asking, "What? Where is this coming from?" Harper was so upset that she didn't even want to
listen to Matthew. "Humph! No wonder that lady dared to be disrespectful to me. You're the one who's backing her up. And now
what? Do you want to make your younger cousin your concubine? Or do you want to marry her as your wife? If you regret
sending her away, then hurry up and inform Rufus that he needs to send her back to you!" Finally realizing that Harper was being
jealous, Matthew burst into laughter. He grabbed her hand and said, "Harp, do you know that you look so adorable when you get

jealous?" "Who's jealous? I know I'm not! I'm merely giving you a suggestion. If you think you're too lonely and bored with only
me by your side, I can find some more interesting women for you," Harper retorted at once.
"I don't need anyone else by my side," Matthew said, a dreadful expression falling into his face. "Really?" Harper exclaimed with
all her strength. "Yes, of course! You're more than enough for me! I can hardly bear you! If I have another woman by my side,
that would certainly kill me! I don't care about the quantity of women. I only care about the quality. And I can say with absolute
confidence that you
have the best qualities that I'm looking for," Matthew stated with utmost sincerity.
Despite his sweet words, Harper only snorted. "I'm already full. Let's take a walk outside to help with our digestion."
Matthew stood up and reached out for her hand. "That's a great idea. Let me walk around in the general's mansion with you. You
know, I always feel like this arrangement is familiar, but I can't remember where I've seen such a layout before."
Harper's eyes lit up. "Both the general and you are very tough people. It's like you came from the same tree so I guess you might
have the same idea. Did you decorate the mansion where you lived before just like this?" "I've always lived in the military camp!

Do you think the late emperor was generous enough to give me a comfortable private room? You're daydreaming," Matthew
responded right away. Harper thought it over. The late emperor wanted Matthew to die outside of the kingdom as soon as
possible so that he wouldn't be able to come back and get in his way. How could he give a place for Matthew to stay in? What
was more, he had never given Matthew a single penny for the salary of the Black Flag Army. If it weren't for Matthew's source of
income, the 300, 000 soldiers
of the Black Flag Army would have starved to death.
"Matthew, do you hate the late emperor?"
"No, I don't have a grudge against him. There's an old saying. Birds of the same feather flock together. Wasting my energy to
care about him is not worth it. After struggling for power for a lifetime, he was killed by his own son in the end. I guess, it's true as
they say. You reap what you sow." While he was speaking, Matthew had an impassive expression on his face. The deceased .

emperor had competed with him all his life. Even though they were brothers, he hated Matthew for his outstanding military
capabilities. He couldn't have peace of mind because of his brother's talents. So he wanted to cripple Matthew. And every time
something bad finally happened, the emperor would push him away to deal with it. From the moment Matthew had shown his
talent to the second that the emperor was killed, he didn't consider Matthew as his brother. So when he was killed by his own son
Francis, Matthew honestly thought that it was the late emperor's bad karma.
"What's the custom of the people in the Birch Pass?" Harper changed the subject.
"The customs of South Kingdom are very liberal. Since the Birch Pass is next to the kingdom, they are influenced by the customs
of the kingdom. The people in the Birch Pass are open-minded. Many women get out of their houses and do businesses here,"
Matthew promptly answered. He had also been to South Kingdom, but he didn't know what it was like after all these years.
With curiosity on her face, Harper asked, "Why don't we take a walk outside tomorrow?"
Matthew had the same idea. The only way that he could know what was going on in the Birch Pass was to go outside. And he
could confirm if the city was successfully managed by Luther, the appointed commander in chief of the south domain's army.
