Chapter 213: 212 Cold Palace Abandoned Concubine (10) Fourth Watch of the Night

Hearing these words, Shuangyue gritted her teeth. She looked at Sun Ping, "To think that the person saved by the Lady turns out to be an ungrateful wretch like you! Let’s just say I never laid eyes on you today!"

Behind her, Sun Ping shook his head, a sharp light flickering in his eyes.

Once accustomed to luxury, it’s tough to live frugally. After living such a good life, how could he possibly follow Ye Shaohua and suffer.

As for the Empress, he believed everyone might fall, but not the Empress.

Shuangyue had gone missing, and originally Yuwen Zhe wanted to have someone arrest her as well. Unfortunately, Shuangyue vanished at this moment, and even after turning over the entire Imperial Palace, they couldn’t find her.

This made them all the more wary of Ye Shaohua and increased the guards at the Heavenly Prison. _{free𝑤ebnovel.com}

"Has Ye Shaohua still not revealed the person behind her?" Yuwen Zhe looked at the prison head.

The prison head respectfully bowed, "She refuses to speak even under threat of death, she has been starved for two days now, not even a bowl of water has passed her lips, but still, she won’t talk."

Yuwen Zhe sneered coldly, "As expected, she’s a tough nut to crack."

He waved his hand to dismiss the prison head and went to see Yuwen Jing in the Palace.

Everyone knew today was the day the Ye Family’s General was to return; they had long ago laid numerous traps at the Palace Gate, ensuring that one could enter but not leave.

"General Ye says Ye Shaofeng is gravely injured and can’t enter the Palace, so he comes alone," Yuwen Zhe mentioned Ye Shaofeng and paused for a moment before recomposing himself and saying, "This must be an excuse. Ye Shaofeng must not be injured. They must know there is an ambush inside the Palace, and surely the General Residence is harboring malicious intentions."

When the deputy general doesn’t enter the Palace after a triumphant return, it’s suspicious no matter how you look at it.

Moreover, he didn’t believe for a second that they were unaware of Ye Shaohua being thrown into the dungeon. General Ye must have come prepared, but unfortunately, they were not pushovers either.

"Since Shaofeng is too injured to come," Yuwen Jing sneered, "My brother, have the Royal Guard take the Imperial Physician to the General Residence to see just how serious the injuries of General Ye’s son are, that he can’t even come for an audience!"

Yuwen Zhe took the order and left, his eyes bloodthirsty.

Ye Shaohua and Ye Shaofeng’s names were both derived from Fenghua. Although Yuwen Zhe didn’t like Ye Shaohua, he had a good relationship with Ye Shaofeng, but that was nothing compared to his relationship with Yuwen Jing.

He had already tied up Ye Shaohua, let alone Ye Shaofeng.

Their forces split in two directions.

Yuwen Jing received General Ye atop the Royal Court.

General Ye appeared imposing, his eyes like cold stars, and his entire person exuded an aura of bloodshed.

He slammed down his wine cup with a "snap" and then stood up, "Your Majesty, I have an urgent matter to report."

The moment had come.

Yuwen Jing tightened his grip on his wine cup but maintained a calm demeanor as he looked towards General Ye, "General Ye, let us talk in detail in the Imperial Study Room."

He led General Ye toward the Imperial Study Room.

The instant he turned around, he gave a significant look to the chief commander of the Royal Guard, who immediately understood.

As the two entered the Imperial Study Room, the outside was deathly quiet, surrounded by countless Royal Guards. With a single command from Yuwen Jing, General Ye would find escape impossible even with wings.

General Ye followed Yuwen Jing into the room with a submissive air, but no one saw the sarcasm flashing in his eyes as he lowered them.

"This expedition owes much to General Ye," Yuwen Jing sat on the chair and repeated what he had said in the Royal Court, "I will fulfill one wish of yours. What, may I ask, does General Ye desire?"
