Chapter 710 Teach Him A Lesson (Part Two)


    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 re 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 tly said, casting Jason a cold nce.


    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 looked at Jason in anticipation, hoping that Jason


    could stillunch attacks towards him. That way, he would have the chance to 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 andunched more furious strikes. What was more, he grabbed the


    opportunity and pped 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 pped 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 sessionst time, everyone spat at me, saying


    that Imitted 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 sessor 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 yboy who did not seem to care about the country whatsoever. We


    had all been fooled by you! We scolded you at that time 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 havemitted 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 outughing. However, no one daredugh 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 himpletely 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 thete emperor and other princes. What he has done is unpardonable. Today, I will make your


    crime public and have you sentenced ording to thew of the Bright Dynasty! Guards! Seize Francis


    and his men! Only those who are willing to surrender shall be kept alive!"
