Chapter 202: The Coming-of-Age Ceremony (Part 2)
"Xiaoxue, where is my aunt?" Sure enough, the familiar voice of the prime minister came from outside the door, and Su Xin hurriedly picked up the veil and covered her face.
"Master, I'm here." The door opened and the prime minister looked up, and saw a young woman walking out with Concubine Liu.
"Why are you running around?"
As soon as Prime Minister Su opened his mouth, he was showing deep dissatisfaction. He was entertaining the guests in front, but the guard came running over and said that his concubine had run away. He was afraid that something strange would happen, so he tried hard to get away.
However, he felt that the figure of the woman standing next to Aunt Liu was very familiar, so he took a few more glances at her.
"I just missed Xin'er, so I came to see her. But master, I want to ask you something." Aunt Liu raised her head and met the prime minister's gaze without fear.
"I know what you want to ask, but I'm very busy right now. Please go back to Yanliu Pavilion first. I'll come to you later and talk to you slowly."
Prime Minister Su naturally knew what Concubine Liu wanted to ask, but firstly, he really didn't have time now, and secondly, he was afraid that if he told her, Concubine Liu would make a scene at the coming-of-age ceremony.
"I can ask later, but the Prime Minister must take me to the Second Miss's coming-of-age ceremony, otherwise I will go to the Emperor even if I risk my life."
Aunt Liu now shed her previously gentle and weak face, revealing her true ferocious appearance.
"You..." Prime Minister Su wanted to say something, but met Aunt Liu's threatening eyes. He could see that what Aunt Liu said was true.
"You little bitch, why are you here? Why don't you just follow me?"
The nanny scolded, interrupting the Prime Minister and Aunt Liu. Then she walked over quickly, twisted Su Xin's arm without any courtesy, and pulled Su Xin's arm out.
"Ah..." Su Xin cried out in pain.
"Who are you?" Aunt Liu couldn't help getting angry when she saw the visitor was so rude to her daughter.
"I am a maid in the palace. This girl is running around. The coming-of-age ceremony has already begun, and the dancers are waiting for her."
After all, the nanny had been immersed in the harem for many years. When she saw Aunt Liu's belly and Prime Minister Su's attitude, she naturally knew that the child was most likely Prime Minister Su's.
So his tone was a little polite. After all, the Prime Minister had no son. If this was a son, it would be right for him to be polite.
"This girl almost made me fall just now, and I asked her to help me come here. Please don't scold her, Ma'am."
After Aunt Liu finished speaking, she motioned for Xiaoxue to hand over the silver.
"This is my thank you gift. I originally wanted to give it to this girl. Now that the nanny is here, it's more appropriate for the nanny to keep it."
Aunt Liu chuckled and looked at the nanny.
The nanny weighed the purse in her hand and knew it was not light.
"You are lucky. Let's go." The nanny then relaxed her frown and pulled Su Xin away.
The Prime Minister naturally noticed what Aunt Liu did. He followed Aunt Liu's gaze and the more he looked, the more familiar he felt that this woman in dancing costume was.
"Master, if you don't take me there, I will go by myself." Aunt Liu looked back and saw the deep thought in the Prime Minister's eyes. Her heart skipped a beat and she quickly drew the Prime Minister's attention.
"Let's go." The prime minister looked at Aunt Liu for a long time and finally compromised. After all, the emperor was in his house, and if Aunt Liu really made a fuss, it would be embarrassing for everyone.
By the time the Prime Minister and Aunt Liu arrived at the front hall, a group of dancers had already begun dancing to the sound of stringed instruments.
After the dance, the coming-of-age ceremony officially began.
Under the gazes of the crowd, Su Yue walked over slowly. There was a flash of surprise in many people's eyes, including some from aristocratic families, which made the Third Prince quite jealous.
Of course, there is jealousy and murderous intent in so many eyes.
Afterwards, Su Yue completed the coming-of-age ceremony under various instructions, like a wooden man.
"Okay, I declare that the coming-of-age ceremony is complete!" With the emperor's loud announcement, Su Yue was finally an adult girl!
Afterwards, Su Xin and the other dancers were arranged to dance another song. However, because Su Xin had just witnessed Su Yue's coming-of-age ceremony, she was burning with jealousy and her dance steps became disordered, and she was accidentally tripped by someone next to her.
Su Xin cried out "Ah..." and almost fell down. The veil on her face accidentally hooked onto the pearl flowers on the dancer's head in front of her, and it fell down.
Those who had seen the appearance of Concubine Xian opened their eyes wide in shock.
The emperor just stood up, his eyes full of disbelief!
