Chapter 276 Lifting
Song Shiwei washed herself up carefully. In order to cover the fingerprints on her face, she also applied a thick layer of powder. The heavy makeup on her face was very different from her temperament. At first glance, there was a strong sense of incongruity. It was
just that her face could be covered, but she really couldn't do anything about her teeth.
She left the palace and got on the carriage that came to pick her up from the prime minister's residence. She imagined the scene of being in glory and having everyone congratulate her, and couldn't help laughing.
The carriage stopped and started along the way. Song Shiwei was about to speak, but the coachman outside the carriage explained first: "Miss, there are too many carriages on the street. This road is really blocked and can't be driven. Otherwise, I will take the side road?" It's so
blocked that it's impossible to drive. How many people came to the prime minister's residence today!
Song Shiwei's eyes lit up slightly. She suppressed her joy and said impatiently, "Let's take the small road."
After a few minutes, Song Shiwei regretted it. The small road was very bumpy and she could hardly sit still in the car. After it was finally flat, she saw a strand of hair hanging down from the corner of her eye and reached out to touch her head.
Her carefully combed bun was loosened because of the bumpy road!
Song Shiwei took a deep breath.
How can she go out to meet people like this? !
Without a bronze mirror, Song Shiwei had to take off all the hairpins on her head and hastily combed a simple bun.
As soon as she finished combing, the coachman said, "Miss, we're here."
Arrived?
Song Shiwei's eyes were full of confusion.
With so many people, even if there is no noise, there should be some voices. Why is it so quiet?
She opened the car curtain and leaned out, only to see that the door of the prime minister's residence was quiet. There were no guests, only two gatekeepers.
Could it be in the courtyard?
Song Shiwei said to herself as she got out of the car.
After being delayed for such a long time, the guests must have been waiting impatiently and went to sit in the courtyard.
She entered the mansion and looked at the scenery in the mansion which was no different from before. The more she walked, the deeper her brows wrinkled.
It was not until she entered the inner courtyard and saw the small stage with Jiang Zhaorong standing next to it that Song Shiwei panicked.
She couldn't even force a smile, and just looked at Jiang Zhaorong silently, her eyes full of accusations.
Jiang Zhaorong seemed to have not seen it: "You're back, kneel down, I'll give you a hairpin ceremony."
So shabby, this small square table is her hairpin ceremony? !
Song Shiwei's nose was sour, tears welled up in her eyes: "Father, my hairpin ceremony should have been yesterday, you can have it today, but isn't this a little too shabby? You know how important the hairpin ceremony is to a girl."
Taohong looked at her and tried to smooth things over: "Shiwei, don't be excited, it's just that there is no time to arrange it today, and the time has already passed. Why bother about such an empty ceremony?"
Song Shiwei didn't even look at her, just staring at Jiang Zhaorong.
"Are you blaming me?" Jiang Zhaorong's eyes were full of impatience: "Remember your identity. It's an honor for you to have this."
If she didn't have any clues about the treasure, he wouldn't have adopted her. I'm afraid she would have been eaten by wolves now.
To be able to grow up to the age of 15 in such wealth is already a blessing she earned in her previous life.
Song Shi looked at him in surprise, tears falling one by one.
Honor? What did he honor her for?
Giving her food and drink is honor?
These are obviously all hers!
If his father hadn't passed the secret report to Jiang Zhaorong, how could Jiang Zhaorong sit in the position of prime minister?
It can be said that everything Jiang Zhaorong has now is due to his biological father!
Moreover, Jiang Zhaorong was afraid that her father would reveal the secret, so he cruelly killed her father and mother, and took her in under false pretenses, earning a good reputation outside.
This Xiangfu should have belonged to her, but it was occupied by someone else, and now it has become Jiang Zhaorong who is promoting her?
What's the reason? !
Seeing her crying without saying anything, Jiang Zhaorong became even more irritated: "Kneel down quickly, I still have things to do."
Song Shiwei stood straight and said nothing.
"Okay," Jiang Zhaorong looked at her, his tone cold and hard: "You can wear the hairpin yourself."
He threw the hairpin in his hand onto the table and left.
After he left, Taohong put away her worried look.
"You, just give in, but you have to end up like this."
Song Shiwei wiped the tears from her face: "Don't bother."
When the Queen Mother comes, she will seek justice for herself.
Seeing her like this, Taohong didn't say anything, but just said as she left: "Do you know where he is going in such a hurry?"
Seeing Song Shiwei looking over, Taohong chuckled: "I guess you forgot that today is Jiang Zhiyu's birthday."
It was as if a thunderbolt sounded above his head. Song Shiwei was stunned, and his eyes suddenly widened for a moment.
So that's it.
Thinking of the carriages that were blocked on the street, Song Shiwei lowered his eyes: "I actually forgot."
Her voice was very soft, as if she was talking to herself.
Taohong glanced at her, turned around and left.
Her birthday is only one day different from Jiang Zhiyu's. Since childhood, in order to save trouble, they both celebrated their birthdays on the same day.
However, they all followed her day.
She was the absolute protagonist of the day, and Jiang Zhiyu could only be her foil!
Song Shiwei's chest rose and fell violently.
Today is no different!
Even if there are many people on Jiang Zhiyu's side, it's enough for her to have the empress dowager!
The empress dowager will personally confer a hairpin on her. By then, they will only regret not seeing it with their own eyes!
Song Shiwei thought about this and let out a light breath, as if she wanted to spit out the depression in her heart.
She glanced at the small square table and turned back to her own courtyard.
It was just right, there was still time for her to wash and dress up again.
…
On the other side, inside the palace.
The emperor was about to leave the palace with Fuping, but he heard a voice calling him: "Emperor, are you leaving the palace today too?" A
vicious look flashed across the emperor's eyes, and he looked at the empress dowager who was slowly approaching, with the same expression on his face as usual: "That's right, why, mother is leaving the palace too?" The
empress dowager had already inquired about the emperor's schedule, and knew that he was going to attend Song Shiwei's coming-of-age ceremony, so she also had this idea. The empress
dowager nodded slightly and took the initiative: "Where is the emperor going?"
"Xu Mansion," the emperor did not hide it from her, with a little smile in his eyes: "Today is Zhiyu's birthday, I'm going to take a look."
Just as the emperor was waiting to mention the prime minister's residence, she also pretended to be surprised, and then mentioned that the empress dowager who was going with the emperor, her smile froze on her face.
Aren't you going to Song Shiwei's coming-of-age ceremony? Why are you going to Xu's house to attend Jiang Zhiyu's birthday?!
The queen mother's eyes were like knives, and she stabbed Qiu Yi.
Qiu Yi lowered her head, hiding her frightened eyes, and trembled lightly while holding the queen mother's hand.
What's going on?!
How did they pass the message over there!
