Forensic Imperial Concubine by Erika Black

"You have no idea who exactly they are?"
"Not at all," Felton said nonchalantly. "Before they attack, you'd better leave as soon as possible."
Shawn pulled out a chair, with a sword in his hand, and sat facing the door. "When Harper left, she asked me to take good care
of you. I've sent someone to ask my people to be here, and I'll stay here with you before the support come."
"They are not easy to deal with. Their internal force seems quite strong. They all should be highly skilled. The guards here can't
fight against the assassins outside," Felton said with a frown. "If you leave now, there's still time for you to leave safely."
"Felton, you underestimated me. I'm not afraid of death," Shawn said indifferently. "What's more, if something bad happens to
you under my watch, I will be too ashamed to meet Harper."
Hearing that, Felton smiled faintly and no longer drove Shawn away. He didn't fear no matter how many people were outside.
The Qin Clan had been in silence for twenty years. So, they wouldn't keep silent any more. If the people hiding in the dark still
thought that the people of the Qin Clan were easy to bully, they would be totally wrong.
As Felton continued to play, the melody was no longer low and depressing, but melodious, jubilant and loud. From now on, Qin
Clan didn't need to hide anymore. So, he ordered, "Arrange the array to welcome the guests tonight."
There were not only Felton, Shawn and Mathias in the courtyard. Most of the secret guars of the Qin Clan were hiding in the
dark. As soon as the assassins entered the courtyard, they fell into the array. Thus, Felton chatted happily with Shawn while
looking at the assassins struggling in the array.
"Shawn, you know what? I've been waiting for this moment for a long time." With an indescribable sense of relief on his face,
Felton felt like he had waited too long for this day. Shawn then nodded and asked, "You are from the Qin Clan in the imperial
capital, right?" "Yes, that's right. My mother and Harper's mother are sisters," Felton admitted frankly. "From now on, the Qin
Clan doesn't need to hide anymore." Shawn understood what he meant. The Qin clan had been under siege of the four
kingdoms and only a few people survived. Harper survived because of the protection of the Chu Clan. As for the rest who could
survive, most of them were from the collateral branches of the Qin Clan.

"I'm glad to hear that." Shawn looked relaxed. "Why do you say that?" "Because what you said proves that she is safe and
sound," Shawn said slowly. "I haven't had a chance to return her a favor after she saved me that year. Now that there is a
chance, I won't miss it." Felton laughed. The melody he was playing suddenly became murderous. It pierced into the ears of the
assassins trapped in the array, making them feel uncomfortable and hallucinate. Not everyone could resist the attacking power of
the melody. Shawn, sitting next to Felton, was also disturbed by the melody. Seeing this, Felton immediately pricked at Shawn's
two
acupoints, blocking his hearing. In this way, Shawn wouldn't get hurt or had a wrong circulation of the energy inside his body
after he listened to the music for a long time.
During the night, the rain didn't stop and no one knew that the blood on both sides of the alley had been washed clean by the
rain, and the dead bodies were dragged away and buried. When it was dawn, the rain stopped. Felton leaned back on the chair
tiredly. Shawn looked tired too. The yard was as clean as the early morning sky, clean and clear, without any bloodstain.
"It's dawn."
"Yeah, it's dawn," Shawn said slowly as he looked at the rising sun. "It's a good day today. I should go back. If Rolando comes
here, I'm afraid he won't slow down his attacks on the Dragon Pass. If the Dragon Pass was conquered, you should leave here in
advance." "What? Do you want to guard the Dragon Pass until the last moment of your life?" "His Majesty and Prince Matthew
trust me and asked me to guard the Dragon Pass. Of course, I will share life and death with the soldiers and people of the
Dragon Pass, but you don't have to do that," Shawn said. Then, he stood up and was about to walked
out. "Felton, take care," he added.
Seeing Shawn striding out of the yard, Felton smiled and said, "Don't worry. The Dragon Pass will be fine. I have sent the new
batch of explosives to your mansion."
Shawn stopped, smiled helplessly and said, "Felton, thank you. But I don't want to use the explosives for the time being. On one
hand, the leaders in the army are too dependent on weapons, and they become overconfident. On the other hand, during the

battle between the two armies, it's better if I interweave the true information of my army with the false information to confuse the
enemies. If I show all my cards at once, what should I do later?"
Instead of answering Shawn, Felton just watched him leave. He finally understood why the Harper would have chosen Shawn to
guard the Dragon Pass. She was right. This man was the most suitable candidate.
"Mathias," Felton called abruptly.
Mathias showed up at once and replied, "Master." Felton asked at once, "When will the reinforcements of the imperial capital
arrive?"
"It is General Maxwell that comes to support this time. After a rough calculation, I think they will arrive in three days," Mathias
answered after thinking for a while. "I guess Marquis Shawn should be able to resist the enemies for another three days."
"Three days? I am not sure about that. Shawn and his army may still need hang on three days. Yet, if that people arrives to help,
it will be no problem for Shawn to hold on to the days when Matthew arrives, let alone three days," Felton said with a faint smile.
"Inform our people to get ready to welcome the leader of our clan. It's time for us to take action now."
"Yes, master."
