The legitimate daughter is reborn and the fake Bai Lian is completely panicked
Chapter 42: Coming of Age Ceremony (2)
The prince looked at the King of Qi beside him and whispered in a voice that only the two of them could hear: "I always feel that I have seen this second young lady of the Shen family somewhere, but unfortunately I just can't remember where."
"Her face feels so familiar"
King Qi said: "This girl from the Shen family has only been back in Yanjing for three months, how could she have met you?"
"I think my brother saw that the girl had a good appearance and felt familiar with her."
The prince took a deep breath and looked at Shen Mi who was drinking tea opposite him with his head down, his eyes changed slightly.
This face is obviously very familiar, but I can't remember it no matter what.
Shen Mi seemed to have noticed that the prince's gaze had never moved away. She did not look up at him again, but she already had some ideas in her mind.
She picked up the teacup and took a sip of the tea in her hand. She heard the two women whispering in her ears.
"The Crown Prince and the King of Qi both came to the Pingyang Marquis's residence today. Could it be that they have taken a fancy to the girl from the Shen family?"
"I heard that the Queen is currently looking for a daughter of a noble family in Yanjing to be the Crown Prince's concubine."
"Now that Third Miss Shen is engaged to the prince of Yongchang Marquis's mansion, there are only two legitimate daughters left in the Shen family."
"Ms. Shen is so sick, could it be that the prince has set his sights on Miss Shen II?"
"Miss Shen II killed her own grandfather at such a young age. I don't think the Queen would dare to let the Crown Prince marry her."
The voice was very low, but every word reached Shen Mi's ears without error.
She lowered her eyes and snorted coldly.
The Crown Princess of the Eastern Palace? Whoever wants to be one in this life can do it.
Every noble lady in Yanjing wants to enter the Eastern Palace and become the Crown Prince's principal wife, but they don't know what a heavy price she paid in her previous life.
Hot oil was poured down her throat, she was a dead body, and she was framed for having an affair with a guard and died tragically in a deserted courtyard.
Everything that she had suffered in her previous life, Shen Shu will have to suffer in this life.
Shen Mi took a deep breath and was just thinking about it when he saw a slender figure coming in from outside the door.
The girl was wearing a pink chiffon dress, her skin was pale, her lips were pale, and she looked very sick.
As soon as she stepped into the lobby, Zhang Huaian's eyes darkened unconsciously and his body trembled slightly.
If the engagement had not been changed, she and Shen Li would not have suffered so many disasters, and she would not have been bedridden and depressed for many years.
After all, he was the one who caused her so much suffering. Today, he wanted to take advantage of Shen Shu's coming-of-age ceremony and cancel the engagement despite her grandmother's objection.
When Shen Li came in, the eyes of King Qi also fell on her.
The King of Qi held the teacup in his hand, raised his eyebrows slightly and looked at the sick beauty who came in, and a smile unconsciously appeared at the corners of his lips.
"This is the eldest daughter of the Shen family. She is truly a sick beauty. It makes people feel sorry for her."
The prince laughed and said, "Is it because she makes people feel sorry for her, or because she looks about 70% like your old lover who died many years ago?"
"You already have a concubine in your house, is that not enough for you to favor?"
The King of Qi said: "The eldest daughter of the Shen family is a legitimate daughter. If she enters my palace, she will not only be a concubine, but also the position of the principal wife."
As soon as the King of Qi finished speaking, Shen Mi cast a cold look at him.
He frowned: "Why does Miss Shen look like this when she sees me?"
After Shen Li politely greeted all the ladies and young ladies, she slowly walked to Shen Mi and sat down.
She looked at the crowded inner hall of the Shen Mansion and suddenly felt sorry for Shen Mi.
When Shen Mi came of age, there was no coming-of-age ceremony. Her father and grandmother ignored her, and only she and her uncle sent her coming-of-age gifts.
Now, Shen Shu’s coming-of-age ceremony is so grand, so naturally I’m worried that she’ll feel disappointed.
She raised her eyes to look at Shen Mi, and said in a gentle voice: "Mi'er, since you have returned to Yanjing, I will try my best to give you what others have in the future."
"Sister will never let you suffer any injustice."
Shen Mi smiled and whispered in Shen Li's ear: "Sister, I don't care."
“I only care about you and my brothers.”
"Now that mother's dowry has been taken back, keep it well and don't let your eldest brother take it."
"Today, I believe that Big Brother will see clearly who are his relatives, who are good to him, and who are hypocritical."
"kindness."
After the guests took their seats, Marquis Pingyang walked to the center of the hall with a smile on his face.
"Today, my daughter Shen Shu is having her coming-of-age ceremony. Thank you all for coming. Now, my daughter Shen Shu's coming-of-age ceremony will officially begin."
As soon as the Marquis of Pingyang finished speaking, a group of maids and servants brought up the things needed for the coming-of-age ceremony.
The things prepared for the coming-of-age ceremony included brocade and satin clothes, as well as pearl hairpins and tiaras. They were placed on a tray and were incredibly exquisite.
Next, the prestigious, virtuous and polite lady of the clan washed her hands in the washbasin and personally put the clothes and hairpins on the tray on Shen Shu one by one.
As the lady's blessing rang out in the inner hall, everyone's eyes were fixed on Shen Shu who was kneeling in the hall.
"On an auspicious day in the month of Ling, I will wear your first clothes. May you be blessed in spring, peaceful in summer, peaceful in autumn, and happy in winter. I will respect your dignity and be prudent in your virtue. May you live a long life and receive blessings forever."
After Shen Shu was given the gilded gold hairpin with flower patterns and the red gold peony hairpin with silk, Lin and Marquis Pingyang gave Shen Shu instructions, as well as blessings from the elders of the clan.
Shen Shu's coming-of-age ceremony was the focus of everyone's attention. After the ceremony, the elders of the clan and her close friends presented gifts of blessing to the girl in the center of the front hall one by one.
At this moment, the prince slowly stood up, took out an exquisite box from his golden silk robe, walked to Shen Shu, and handed the box to her.
"Today is the third Miss Shen's coming of age, and I should send her some gifts as a token of my appreciation."
The exquisite box was opened, revealing a South China Sea night-shining pearl as big as an egg.
The white pearls were so smooth and round that all the guests were stunned.
The noble ladies from Yanjing City even cast envious glances at him.
"His Royal Highness is very generous."
"Isn't it? Who in Yanjing City can have such treatment?"
Shen Shu immediately acted shy and looked up to meet the prince's eyes.
"Your Highness, this item is precious. Shen Shu thanks Your Highness."
The prince closed the box and his eyes fell on Shen Shu's face.
"It's just a small gift to show my appreciation. Miss Shen is a grown-up now."
Shen Shu was secretly surprised. This was a gift from the prince. How many women in Yanjing City could have such treatment?
Moreover, this was given at the coming-of-age ceremony, so it was legitimate and the Empress would not doubt it. Instead, the other noble ladies in Yanjing would be envious and jealous to death.
Everyone gave her gifts of blessing one by one. Shen Shu turned around and looked at Shen Mi who was sitting there.
"Second sister, today is Shu'er's coming-of-age ceremony. Second sister, have you prepared a gift for Shu'er?"
Shen Mi was in a daze when she heard Shen Shu's voice.
She raised her eyes and saw Shen Shu looking at her strangely.
She slowly stood up, picked up an exquisite box on the table, walked to Shen Shu, and opened the box.
"Today my sister is coming of age, so I will give this bracelet to her as a gift."
"I hope my sister can marry a man of her dreams in the future."
She took the blue glass gem bracelet from the box and handed it to Shen Shu.
Shen Shu stretched out her hand slightly, picked up the blue glass bracelet, and looked at it carefully.
She smiled and said, "Sister, this bracelet is so beautiful. It must have cost you a lot of money."
Shen Mi's lips curled slightly: "This bracelet was left to me by my mother. I cherish it very much and have carried it with me for several years. Today, my sister is coming of age, so I will give it to her."
