Special Agent Rebirth: The Omnipotent Goddess of Quick Transmigration novel Chapter 220

Chapter 220: 219 Cold Palace Abandoned Concubine (17) Third Watch of the Night

Aside from the four members of the Ye Family, no one else present had heard this content before.

Especially upon hearing that Shaohua could match the seventh prince when she was young, everyone was dumbfounded.

What followed was admiration for General Ye.

To think that such a talent, General Ye could bear to prevent her from pursuing education.

It was only now that the divine doctor realized why Shaohua was capable of creating such an antidote; she had been a genius since childhood!

Yuwen Yun, too, had only just learned this and looked at Shaohua with some surprise.

The most astonished of them all had to be Yuwen Jing, who dumbly stared at Shaohua, unresponsive even when the Chief Eunuch called out to him twice.

However, General Ye no longer had the luxury of time to wait for his reaction after knowing that Ye Shaofeng was out of danger.

Now that Shaohua had successfully left the Imperial Palace, General Ye had no more concerns.

He directly addressed Yuwen Jing, "Your Majesty, you have been out of the palace for quite some time, and it’s getting dark. For the sake of your safety, this humble official will escort you out of the residence."

A storm raged in Yuwen Jing’s heart.

Only now did he realize that Shaohua had been hiding her true abilities from him.

He really wanted to ask her why she hadn’t told him anything from the start!

But—

Thinking of Qu Huashang, Yuwen Jing no longer dared to ask. What right did he have?

He had been deceiving her from the start.

Upon thinking about the Qu Family and their entourage, Yuwen Jing’s expression darkened even further. He had dethroned Shaohua as soon as he ascended the throne; surely General Ye knew this from Yuwen Yun and must now also be disillusioned with him.

Hence, Yuwen Jing left the Ye Family residence without saying another word.

After Yuwen Jing’s departure, General Ye glanced at Yuwen Yun, grateful that the other had promptly summoned the divine doctor.

He also had a premonition that Yuwen Yun’s visit was related to Shaohua.

He didn’t rush him to leave the Ye Family but instead arranged for him to be accommodated in a side room.

Once the unrelated visitors had left, the Ye Family could finally gather properly.

Knowing that Ye Shaofeng was safe and his life not in danger, the Ye Family’s eldest sister-in-law turned to Shaohua, "Shaohua, that Yuwen Jing is truly despicable, actually deposing you for the sake of Qu Huashang. I will let him know, our little sister is a hundred times better than that Qu Huashang!"

That was the reason why the Ye Family’s eldest sister-in-law had boldly proclaimed in front of Yuwen Jing that Shaohua had been a prodigy since childhood.

The relationships within the Ye Family were not complex; Madam Ye, General Ye, and Ye Shaofeng had always been very fond of Shaohua since her childhood, and the eldest sister-in-law naturally inherited this trait.

After meticulously choosing Yuwen Jing, who seemed decent enough, who could have expected him to be so heartless and cruel!

With his son seriously injured and his daughter publicly deposed on the day of the grand ceremony, General Ye couldn’t possibly swallow his anger.

He had sworn in front of the previous emperor to protect the Yuwen lineage, but as to who would become the emperor, he could not assure anymore.

"You all stay here in the residence; I’m going out for a bit," General Ye left this message and went straight out.

Shaohua let Madam Ye look her over from head to toe and then resumed her communication with 008 in her mind.

"It’s indeed been a long time since the last upgrade," Shaohua narrowed her eyes, "Wait a minute, do you need my permission to upgrade now?"

008: [Yes, that’s correct.]

Dammit, can you not be so sharp!

But Shaohua was not in the mood to bother with it at the moment, "Go ahead and upgrade. If there’s not much use after the upgrade, then don’t bother in the future."

chose to ignore the latter part of her statement and jubilantly agreed.

**

There were no disturbances at the General Residence, and Shaohua also safely left the palace.

At the same time, Qu Huashang’s powers were being gradually reined in by Yuwen Jing; officials siding with Qu Family were either suppressed or dismissed from office.

Grand Tutor Qu sensed the unusual atmosphere.

He visited the Cold Palace under the pretext of seeing Qu Huashang.

"Huashang, the military talisman is in the Emperor’s hands," Grand Tutor Qu knew the Emperor could no longer tolerate their Qu Family, "you must find an opportunity to get the talisman for me. Remember, the survival of the Qu Family depends on you!"

Grand Tutor Qu could naturally follow General Ye’s example and hand over all his power to the Emperor to demonstrate his loyalty.
