Special Agent's Rebirth: The Almighty Goddess of Quick Transmigration-Chapter 19
Chapter 19
Chapter 19 : Minister mansion’s most talented woman (1)
“What’s wrong?” At that time, a low voice was heard.
Everyone looked at the sound’s source, only to see a few gongzi1 coming to their side, led by a person wearing golden dragon robes 2. On top of his head was a jade hair accessory. His appearance was clear and bright.
“Third prince!” Someone immediately recognized that this was the most outstanding prince of this dynasty, the third prince. The color on everyone’s face changed.
The third prince had always been interested in the most talented woman, Ye Shaohua. This was not a secret. Now, this scene was quite interesting.
The fiancée who was abandoned by the third prince was trampling on Jingchen’s first-ranked woman, at the Imperial Uncle’s birthday banquet.
It seemed that general Bai’s mansion’s second daughter was not at all a famous straw bag 3 like in the rumor. They did not expect the rumor to really be just a rumor. It seemed that this famous coward’s daughter was quite talented.
They had always felt that Bai Zhenzhen was not worthy of the third prince, who even had openly broken their engagement. Seeing this scene, they didn’t know what they should think anymore?
” People experience sorrow, joy, separation and reunion. The moon may be dim or bright, round or crescent shaped, …4” The third prince listened to the gongzi next to him who described the things that had just happened. He looked at Bai Zhenzhen with surprise. “Is this what you wrote?”
At this glance, he suddenly discovered that his fiancée, who he had not seriously looked at in the past, was also an excellent woman.
Compared to Ye Shaohua, this first-class beauty, she(BZZ) was still insufficient. However, compared to other people, she was not inferior.
Looking at the third prince who was questioning her, there was not even a ripple in Bai Zhenzhen’s heart. Indeed, she remembers the reasons why the predecessor died. It was because he saved Ye Shaohua on the race course. He didn’t look after her, his betrothed. Therefore, the previous Bai Zhenzhen, fell down her horse and died.
If it was the day before she crossed over, the previous Bai Zhenzhen would feel excitement because the third prince looked at her. However, she was not her. She was a modern person. The ancients feared imperial power. However, she lived in an era of equality for everyone. How could she fear imperial power?
“I wrote it, do you want to give vent to your Miss Ye’s anger?” Bai Zhenzhen looked at the third prince without hesitation.
Although she had to admit that the third prince was good-looking, she had seen so many celebrity’s faces in modern times. Therefore, his attractive looks were not much to her.
Thinking of Ye Shaohua with a lowered head, thinking that she was scared by herself, she couldn’t help but laugh, the ancients are so boring, she still had a belly full of Tangdynasty Shi-style poems and Song dynasty Ci-style poems 5 that she had not used yet.
The most talented woman of Jingchen, right? I want you to never dare to touch poetry again after today!
“Miss Ye, you don’t have to worry, I don’t mean anything to the third prince. I want a lifetime of two people6 . He can’t afford it.” Bai Zhenzhen’s hands clasped her chest and didn’t care. “Let’s return to the main topic, do you dare to compare notes in Go with me ?”
The predecessor’s hatred still had to be repaid. Bai Zhenzhen’s plan was very simple. Didn’t Ye Shaohua always claim to be the most talented woman? Would Ye Shaohua still be able to call herself ‘most talented woman’ when she wasn’t anymore?
She was stepping on Ye Shaohua’s most proud area with the soles of her feet, she wanted the most talented woman of Jingcheng to doubt the meaning of her existence!
She didn’t know that her, Bai Zhenzhen’s, words would surprise all the people present. They did not expect that she would speak of “a lifetime of two people”.
Although this era was very tolerant to women, as the entire dynasty even had female officers, in the end it was still a minority. There was almost no one with the mindset of two persons together for a lifetime.
Even the third prince who did not like her looked at Bai Zhenzhen with different eyes.
Ye Shaohua finally raised her head at this time, and she sighed. “Miss Bai had deeply hidden her talents and did not let anything leak outside. To be able to write such incomparable words, at such an age. I , Ye Shaohua, am still nowhere near you. To be able to consult you in Go, I am very honored.”
As Ye Shaohua said this, some people on the field suddenly felt doubtful, and looked at Bai Zhenzhen’s eyes with inquiry.
In recent years, there had been no war in this dynasty. As a general’s mansion, Bai household had been quite leisurly, and had never left Jingchen. So… How did this Bai Zhenzhen write this poem that was deeply linked to relatives being far away?
However, everyone just wondered, and did not think much. After all, with such a peerless masterpiece, most people would not dare to confess it’s theirs when it’s not.
“Why did you agree so?” Ye Shaohua just finished speaking when, behind her, appeared a tall upright man. He was dressed in an ice-blue coat with a lustrous ancient jade around his waist.
Ye Shaohua looked at the man who suddenly popped out. After a pause, she remembered who this person was, “Ge?7”
Ye Huaijin slowly nodded. He whispered softly: “This Bai Zhenzhen gave the emperor a copy of “The Art of War” last night. This book was written by Bai Zhenzhen. The Go field is like a battlefield. She is sure to have high attainment in Go. This time, she is clearly targeting you. I heard that this military book was studied by the cabinet ministers overnight, even the imperial bodygard’s leaders were amazed. You, pretend to be uncomfortable, I will take you back to the prime minister’s mansion.”
Bai Zhenzhen seemed to know what Ye Huaijin was saying, and contempt flashed in the bottom of her eyes. “Miss Ye, you still don’t dare?”
This sentence was very provocative, but Ye Huaijin had no worries. He knew that his little sister had always been sensible, and she would certainly not react because of this kind of incompetent provocation.
However, in the next second, two cold words came to his ear, “I dare.”
Ye Huaijin’s hand paused.
Sure enough, she was young. Bai Zhenzhen looked at Ye Shaohua deeply. She thought that this talented woman of Jingchen would be difficult to deal with, but now it seemed that this ancient woman was really too stupid.
As a transmigrated person, Bai Zhenzhen did not want to live like a woman who did not have any ideals. Her first step was to step on Ye Shaohua with the soles of her feet.
She will have to write down all the useful poems in her mind, so as not to forget. That’s right, She will also create a business dynasty, and let the royals not dare to look down on her.
The current transmigrated Bai Zhenzhen had watched a lot of “transmigration to ancient time” themed drama, so she knew how to get rich in ancient times.
As for these ancient people… Can their brains compare with five thousand years of wisdom? The level of cultural development here was not as good as the Southern and Northern Dynasties of Wenhua in the history books. She can easily present a policy plan from a history book and let this era take a big step forward.
Bai Zhenzhen, you can rest assured, the people who looked down on you in the past will all look up to me!
I’ll let the third prince who abandoned you regret it!
Thinking this way, Bai Zhenzhen sat at the Go table that had been set up for a long time, and looked at Ye Shaohua on the opposite side. The corner of her mouth lifted, giving her a light smile: “Miss Ye, let’s get started.”
Today, she wanted Ye Shaohua to be the first one she would cut to pieces, so that the people in the capital can take a good look at her, Bai Zhenzhen’s, kifu8.
She was learning Go in modern times. This Go knowledge that had been handed down for 5,000 years to modern times, who knows how many stategies it ammassed. Not to mention that Bai Zhenzhen was a famous chess player. She felt sure that, in this day and age, no one’s head would be more filled with the game’s knowledge than her.
She wanted to let everyone know that the so-called most talented woman of Jingchen, regardless of the field, could only look up to her, Bai Zhenzhen.

3. A straw bag is an idiot
4. It’s some lines from the last paragraph of a Shuidiao Getou written by the Northern Song Dynasty’s Su Shi. Shuidiao Getou is a melody, and you sing poem on top of it.
This idiot Bai Zhenzhen chose this poem but it speaks of Su Shi’s longing for his younger brother (who was exiled because of a political strife I think). He had not seen his bro for 7 year and he missed him dearly, that’s why the poem is well-known for being very emotional. In the poem, he wishes for both him and his younger bro to live well. He talks about how life has its ups and downs, but that it’s a normal thing, like the moon can have different shape. You cannot always have it good or always be unlucky. In the song, he asks the moons multiple questions. At the end, he stays positive even though he was depressed all song and says something like : ‘even if we are far apart, as long as we are alive, we can still connect with the people we love by looking at the moon in different places’. I think there may also be some political undertones but i’m not sure
That’s why I think this Bai Zhenzhen is really shameless ah! Old Su Shi would probably spit blood seeing how his poem was used!
5. Poetry from the same Era as Su Shi </a
6. A lifetime where two people are faithful to each other. No concubines and no sleeping with someone else either
7. Big bro
8. Record of a game of go or shogi
