Forensic Imperial Concubine

Harper was taken aback and frowned in deep thought. 'Is it a coincidence? What is the connection between the death of the one from the Qin Clan in the Joy City and the spy's secret searching of our mansion for the Heavenly Book?' She racked her brain to find an explanation.

But what bemused her even more was that the spy had concealed himself so well in their mansion. Furthermore, only a few people knew that the third Heavenly Book was in their mansion. 'How did the spy come to know about this? No matter who it was, we will be in danger if he is not found out.'

"I don't think many people know that the third Heavenly Book is in our mansion, do they?" Harper asked Matthew anxiously. She thought, 'If I consider all the people I know, I should be able to come up with some clues.'

"Yes. The only four people around me knowing about it are Jack, Barry, Noah and Rufus," Matthew replied as he held Harper by the waist. After a pause, he asked, "How about you?"

"I'm the only one." With a gravely ponderous face, Harper reasoned quickly. 'The Heavenly Book is very important and this is the reason why I have told no others about it over the years. I am the only one who knows where the third one is. I have not shared the secret with any of my subordinates. Therefore, the secret could only have been betrayed by those four near Matthew. Jack and Barry have been Matthew's personal guards for so many years, while Noah is a good friend of his. The relationship between Matthew and his steward Noah is even better than that between him and Rufus. I see no reason to suspect Rufus either. Even though I don't know much about him, I know that he sincerely protects Matthew.'

"In other words, one of those four betrayed me." Matthew's eyes became cold as ice He suspected that the news might have been leaked from Harper. However, a spy sent by the Great Jade Kingdom had monitored her for more than ten years and even thoroughly searched the place where she stayed before her marriage. What was more, he even thoroughly searched the whole Chu Clan mansion and still failed to find the Heavenly Book. This proved that the book was hidden by Harper quite well. Yet the information was leaked out after she handed over the Heavenly Book to Matthew. Therefore, one of the four men betrayed him.

Although Harper didn't want to admit it, there was no other choice but to turn her suspicions upon them. There must be something crooked with one of the four. "Which places did the spy search out?"

"My courtyard, my study, your courtyard, and the small warehouse where you store your dowry." Matthew told Harper what Barry had told him. The spy was clever. He knew enough to search those places, but the Heavenly Book was extremely important. How could Matthew be so lax as to put it in his own mansion? There were many people keeping an eye on him, and no matter how and where it was hidden in the mansion, it would be unsafe.

"The small warehouse where I keep my dowry?" Harper pondered that information thoughtfully and concluded, "Then Rufus is excluded from our suspicions."

Matthew nodded. "I remember that I never said that the Heavenly Book is your dowry, but the spy searched through dowry. That is to say, the spy must be a member of our mansion, and he knows the situation here very well. When I took out the Heavenly Book, Rufus was also there. I said that although everyone was hoping to get it, they would never expect that it was thrown into a dark corner and got moldy!"

"Yes, this man knows both you and me very well. After all, the book appeared after I married you and moved into your mansion. This man suspected that the third one was brought here by me, so he looked through my dowry..." Harper stopped abruptly. She didn't want to suspect anyone of those men whom she had trusted so much.

"Leave it to me," said Matthew with his icy cold eyes.

"Darling, don't you want me to handle this matter? After all, I haven't been with them for a long time. It will be easier for me to handle it..."

"No, I'll take care of it," said Matthew as he kissed her hand. "I'm not a weak man."
