“Hmph! I’ll try the crossbow after I’ve seen enough. What can you do?”

Li Da held the three-way crossbow tightly in his hand, afraid that others would covet it.

In the end, it was Ye Qingge who broke the stalemate and handed Li Da three crossbow bolts. She wanted Li Da to try.

Just look at his girl. She could read the room.

Li Da happily took the bolts from Ye Qingge and loaded them one by one.

Then, he pressed the trigger on the target in the armory.

Pa! Pa! Pa!

Don’t misunderstand that it wasn’t a strange sound. It was the sound of three arrows hitting the target.

“This force is too strong! It can shoot at least 50 feet away!”

“Not only 50 feet, at least 70 to 80 feet.”

“Aiya, stop guessing. Stop guessing. Let’s give it a try. We’ll know once we try.”

The four old men gathered together again and spoke one after another.

Ye Qingge looked at the four of them and frowned.

Just as the four of them were clamoring to give it a try, Ye Qingge had already picked up her tools and was knocking on a piece of wood.

“Aiyo, look, you guys can’t shoot as far as me.”

“Nonsense. I’m the one who can shoot far.”

“I think the two of you are mediocre. If you want to talk about the distance, you have to rely on me.”

“Master, you’re not far away from anyone.”

…

Just as the four of them were competing with flushed faces and felt that they had shot the furthest.

Ye Qingge carried a small box over.

“Try this.”

As she spoke, she placed the square opening under the box on the arrow rail in the middle.

“Qingge, what is this?”

Li Da looked green and inexperienced. He just felt that it was a little strange to install such a thing on the crossbow.

“Try hitting it a few times in a row.”

Ye Qingge smiled mysteriously.

When Li Da heard this, he fired a few times. The arrows were fired one after another.

“It can actually fire continuously! It doesn’t need to be one at a time?”

“If we get it to the battlefield, we’ll be invincible.”

“That’s great. That’s great.”

“God bless Great Xiao.”

…

“Come on, lend it to me again.”

“Let me see, let me see”

“Don’t snatch it, you broke my crossbow!”

The few old men almost made a move. The small boat of years of friendship almost capsized.

Ye Qingge smiled and took a step back, hiding her achievements and reputation.

…

When Ye Qingge returned to General Zhengxi’s Estate, it was already midnight.

Although she had the invitation from General Zhanbei’s residence, she could not stay there for too long. After all, she was now a divorced woman.

As soon as Ye Qingge returned to the residence, she noticed that the servants were looking at her strangely.

It was obvious that they were gloating and watching the show.

What was Madam Bai up to now?

Indeed, her premonition was right.

Concubine Liu’s courtyard was brightly lit.

From afar, they could hear the woman’s curses and cries coming from Concubine Liu’s courtyard.

“If you ask me, then hand over her divorce letter obediently and avoid this physical pain.”

Hearing this cold voice, she confirmed that it was undoubtedly the old woman beside Madam Bai.

“Madam, Madam, I beg you, please let Qingge go. I only found out yesterday that Minister Liu is already in his sixties. Qingge can’t marry him, let alone be a concubine.”

Accompanied by the woman’s cries and the sound of her forehead hitting the ground,

“Aunt Liu, what are you talking about? What do you mean by letting Sixth Miss off? You make it sound like you’re harming her. Madam is clearly giving her face. You have to know that Sixth Miss will go to jail if she goes to the government office for what she did. Don’t be ungrateful.”

Madam Bai did not speak, but old woman Li, who was beside her, pursed her lips and answered Aunt Liu.

Ye Qingge ran a few steps into the courtyard and saw a woman kneeling in front of Madam Bai.

Her white clothes were dirty from dragging her on the ground, and her hair was disheveled. Two old women held her arms, making her unable to move. She could only kowtow non-stop.

It was Ye Qingge’s biological mother, Concubine Liu.

“What are you doing?”

Ye Qingge’s voice was as cold as the winter moon, and the cold air seemed to be able to penetrate into one’s bones.

There was no smile on her face at all. Her eyes, which had always been filled with cowardice, fear, and uneasiness, were now filled with anger and sharpness that could not be mistaken.

Madam Bai felt that she was either crazy or the girl opposite her was crazy. How dare she look at her like that?

Did she really become more capable after divorcing once?

“What else can I do? You know very well what you’ve done.”

A sharp voice sounded from the crowd. It was Ye Yuyao, who had returned yesterday.

“Isn’t this Minister Liu’s Madam? Why isn’t your husband who is as old as your grandfather here?”

Ye Qingge looked at Ye Yuyao calmly. She could roughly guess that she would definitely be involved in today’s incident.

“You little b*tch, you still have the cheek to say that? If not for you, how would I have fallen into such a state?”

Ye Yuyao looked at Ye Qingge and wished she could scratch her repulsive face. However, in the next moment, she smiled.

“However, don’t be happy too early. Soon, you will be a concubine in the Liu residence. In the future, I will make you serve me tea every day and wash my feet every day!”

Ye Yuyao stared venomously at Ye Qingge, like a venomous snake growing in a cold and damp place.

“Madam, hysteria is a disease and you should seek treatment. As for the tea you mentioned? Wash your feet?”

Ye Qingge glanced at Ye Yuyao, then the corners of her lips curled up into a sweet yet mocking smile. “You’re dreaming!”

“Pfft!”

The man in black, who had been lying on the roof and watching the event location for a long time, couldn’t help but laugh.

Fortunately, the scene below was chaotic enough that no one noticed that there was another person on the roof.

His premonition was right. She was indeed an interesting girl.

She really dared to say anything. The man became more and more interested in watching the show.

He even took out a dark green brocade bag from his waist. From the quality, craftsmanship, and material style, it was not an ordinary item.

There must be some rare treasure or priceless item inside.

The man opened the bag and slowly took out a handful…

Melon seeds?

Then, he began to eat it happily.

“Someone, capture this little b*tch and beat her up.”

Ye Yuyao was furious.

Although she was not the daughter of the first wife, she had been well-versed in the ways of flattery and bullying the weak for many years, so she was extremely flattering to Madam Bai.

Therefore, other than the two legitimate daughters, Ye Suyun and Ye Qingyue, she was the highest in rank.

Usually, Ye Qingge treated her like a cat that had seen a mouse, but who would have thought that she would cause her to suffer such a huge loss?

When she returned home yesterday, she had already thought it through. She definitely wouldn’t let her off so easily.

Now that she still dared to provoke her, she had to teach her a lesson!

When the servants heard this, they wanted to charge forward. However, at this moment, Aunt Liu suddenly had the strength to break free from the restraints of the two old women.

By the time the two old maids reacted, Concubine Liu had already crawled in front of First Madam.

“Madam, I beg you, please let Qingge go. I’ll repay you in my next life.”

As Aunt Liu spoke, she grabbed the hem of First Madam’s skirt and begged bitterly.

Unexpectedly, the old woman beside First Madam kicked Concubine Liu in the face, causing her to fall to the ground. “Get lost! You despicable thing, can you afford to compensate for dirtying Madam’s clothes?”
