Special Agent Rebirth: The Omnipotent Goddess of Quick Transmigration novel Chapter 215

Chapter 215: 214 Cold Palace Abandoned Concubine (12) Second Watch of the Night

Yuwen Jing knew that Ye Shaohua had always liked him; otherwise, she wouldn’t have taken an injury for him.

However, he looked down on her for blocking that blow for him, believing there would have been others willing to do the same.

Yet, now, seeing Ye Shaohua in such a state, he felt somewhat bewildered.

He was not unaware of how much Ye Shaohua had liked him in the past, willing to save him even at the risk of her status in the Imperial Palace.

Therefore, when Ye Shaohua spoke those words, he didn’t quite believe her.

Thinking of this, he looked at Ye Shaohua warmly, "Don’t worry, General Ye has made such great contributions. I won’t treat you unfairly. From now on, you will be the master of Yuehua Palace."

He thought about how he had already wronged the Ye Family; although he did not like Ye Shaohua, his aversion to her had somewhat lessened.

"No need," Ye Shaohua beckoned with her fingers, and the palace maid immediately understood, bringing over paper and ink. "If you truly feel grateful to my father, please release me from the palace. Rest assured, I won’t foolishly spread the word."

This palace maid had only been transferred to her service for an hour.

Yuwen Jing was surprised. How come the palace maid was so obedient to Ye Shaohua’s words?

However, seeing that Ye Shaohua had taken out the paper and ink, Yuwen Jing realized the firmness of her resolve, knowing she wasn’t just trying to provoke him, but truly wanted to leave the Imperial Palace.

Despite some guilt, Yuwen Jing knew he didn’t like Ye Shaohua.

So, without much hesitation, he quickly wrote down documents declaring that Ye Shaohua had no obligations toward him, granting her freedom, while Yuehua Palace would forever be reserved for her.

He even signed his name at the bottom.

After signing, he felt a sense of relief wash over him.

He would need to compensate the General Residence properly afterward. He decided he would visit the National Treasury later.

Yuwen Jing mused to himself, then gently pointed to the bottom part of the document and said to Ye Shaohua, "Sign your name..."

At that moment, Yuwen Jing suddenly remembered that almost everyone in the Ye Family was obsessed with martial arts, except for Ye Shaofeng. The rest could barely read.

They learned to read to study military texts more.

When General Ye submitted his remonstrations, it was done through someone else’s handwriting.

With this thought, Yuwen Jing considerately added, "You can also use a handprint..."

"One copy for each person, Your Majesty." Before he could finish, Ye Shaohua took up the brush and deftly wrote her name.

Seeing her sign her name, Yuwen Jing said nothing more, simply adding, "Rest for a few days and... in a couple of days, I will escort you back to the General Residence to see General Ye and your younger brother Shaofeng, who has suffered a minor injury."

Hearing that Ye Shaofeng had been hurt, Ye Shaohua looked up sharply, "How is my brother now?"

Yuwen Jing quickly tried to reassure her, "I’ve already sent most of the Imperial Physicians there; they say there’s no danger to young General Ye’s life."

As for the likelihood of being crippled, he didn’t dare to verbalize it.

With that said, Yuwen Jing found he could no longer stay. He stuffed the document establishing the agreement with Ye Shaohua into his pocket, without looking at the words written on it.

Knowing Ye Shaohua had always been self-conscious about her handwriting, he didn’t want to upset her at this moment.
