Cheng Jiuyuan is the legitimate daughter of the prime minister's family, and is married to the fifth prince, so this coming-of-age ceremony must be grand.

A successful ceremony of coming of age could not only suppress Zhou's mother and daughter, but also promote Lin's good reputation as a virtuous stepmother, so Lin also took it very seriously.

Before dawn, the entire prime minister's residence was busy.

Mu Jin came in with some clean water, breathing out white air from her mouth.

"Miss, I didn't expect it to snow today. Don't catch a cold at the coming-of-age ceremony."

"Have you forgotten that your daughter is a martial artist? Just tell your mother to add more charcoal to the courtyard so that the guests will not be left cold."

Cheng Jiuyuan walked to the window, opened it, and a chill blew in his face.

It was not yet daybreak, only a faint ray of morning light broke through the sky, and the morning mist was desolate.

The fairy jade is like jade, with dots of flying flowers and goose feathers. It is hazy and beautiful like a poem or a painting.

"Dense snow is good in winter, with the sound of breaking jade. It's a bit cold, but it's not bad."

Song Lan came in with a lunch box and put away her umbrella.

"Girl, please have more breakfast. The coming-of-age ceremony is very tiring."

Cheng Jiuyuan closed the window, and Mu Jin helped her wash up and have breakfast, and then her makeup lady arrived.

Cheng Jiuyuan sat in front of the dressing table, looking at the person in the mirror.

When she reached the age of 15, her eyebrows and eyes were as beautiful as a painting.

The coming-of-age ceremony in her previous life was also extremely grand, but it was she who made a fool of herself while it was Cheng Yunge who became famous.

In her previous life, her coming-of-age ceremony was held on her birthday.

Zhou told her that she must smile on this day so that her future life would be smooth.

She knew it was her mother's death anniversary and felt sad, but she tried hard to keep a smiling face at her coming-of-age ceremony.

When she heard people say that she was heartless and had killed her own mother, she was spoiled to the point of being lawless, and she couldn't help but rush up to the housekeeper and started an argument.

Later, her hair was disheveled, her clothes were messy, and her makeup was smudged. Her father was so angry that he slapped her in public, and her fiancé also stood in the crowd with an embarrassed look on his face.

Later, Cheng Yunge walked up to her gently, wiped her tears and apologized for her.

One is barbaric, unreasonable and heartless, the other is well-educated, sensible and worldly-wise.

A bitter smile appeared on Cheng Jiuyuan's lips.

Zhou was truly successful in her previous life. When she thought about it now, she wanted to slap herself.

In this life, she avoided her mother's death anniversary and had fewer verbal disputes.

"The second young lady's appearance is so stunning that one can't take their eyes off her." The makeup lady praised while looking in the mirror.

"You shouldn't use too much rouge and powder, or it will cover up your beautiful complexion. Take a look, girl. Are you satisfied?"

Cheng Jiuyuan nodded: "Sister, you have great skills."

"It's because you're pretty, girl, that we have nowhere to use our good skills."

At this time, Chun Xing led people into the room: "Miss, Miss Zhu is here."

"Sister Cheng, I'm here!" Zhu Jin's cheerful voice rang out.

Cheng Jiuyuan turned around and asked with a smile, "So early?"

Zhu Jin's eyes lit up. He walked forward, pulled her up from the chair, and looked her up and down.

"Am I seeing a fairy? The Fifth Prince is really quick to act. If you are not granted marriage, you will not be able to keep the door of this prime minister's mansion after today."

Cheng Jiuyuan smiled and said, "I just love to exaggerate."

Zhu Jin looked at Mu Jin and the other girls and said, "Tell me, am I exaggerating?"

Mu Jin and Song Lan were all smiling, and Yun Er nodded in agreement: "I am not well-educated and can't say anything nice, but I couldn't help but speak softly when I saw Second Miss Cheng, for fear of startling the fairy and sending her back to heaven. When Second Miss Cheng smiled, I felt the flowers blooming and the snow melting, which made me feel warm. Anyway, Second Miss Cheng and my daughter are the most beautiful in the capital."

Zhu Jin nodded her head and said, "How strong is your daughter? You're still comparing yourself with Sister Cheng."

Cheng Jiuyuan looked at Zhu Jin and said, "It's not that your girl can't say nice things. She's really good at it."

The two girls were talking in the room, and it was also very lively outside.

In front of the mansion, the housekeeper and the doorman's faces were sore from smiling. The accountant was registering the gifts from the guests, and the servants were carrying the gifts to the warehouse without even touching the ground.

In the front hall, Cheng Zongyang was receiving a group of court officials, while Lin was greeting the ladies and noble girls.

In the garden, the clear stream shades the trees, and the seasonal flowers and plants are covered with bright white snow, which becomes colorful when the sun shines on them.

At the time of Si, the wind and snow stopped for a while. The warm sun in winter is the most precious, covering everyone like a thin veil, making people feel comfortable.

The sounds of stringed instruments and orchestras are soaring, and the voices of congratulations are endless.

At this time, a loud announcement came from outside the door: "The prince sent a gift to congratulate the second Miss Cheng on her coming of age!"

Cheng Zongyang was startled and hurried forward with Lin.

A maid from the East Palace came in, followed by two young eunuchs holding boxes in their hands.

"Your Excellency Prime Minister." The palace maid bowed.

"Thank you for taking this trip, please take a seat and have some tea."

"No need. I have to go back and report after delivering the things, so I won't sit down."

The butler quickly asked someone to take the gift, then quietly handed a purse to the palace servant, and respectfully sent the person out.

Cheng Zongyang had just seen off the people from the East Palace and was about to take a seat when he heard a notification from outside.

"The Third Prince sends a gift to congratulate the Second Miss Cheng on her coming of age!"

Cheng Zongyang stood up again and went forward to greet the palace servants who were delivering the gifts.

Before he could finish his sentence, another voice came from the messenger: "The Fifth Prince has arrived! Princess Yongle has arrived!"

Everyone stood up and saluted: "Greetings to His Highness the Fifth Prince and Princess Yongle!"

Chu Heng was dressed in the prince's casual attire, which did not diminish his nobleness at all, but made him look more easy-going.

Chu Wan stood beside him, also very beautiful and charming, showing the royal style.

"Everyone, get up."

"Thank you, Your Highness."

Chu Heng's eyes fell on the box held by the eunuch.

"This is?"

"Your Highness, this is the coming-of-age gift from Your Highness to Miss Cheng."

"Is it Qin?" Chu Wan asked curiously.

Chu Heng raised his eyebrows slightly.

Qin communicates with love. Is he overthinking or is Chu Ze...

"Yes, everyone knows that my prince loves the zither. He said that Miss Cheng's zither skills are unparalleled in the world, and only Miss Cheng is worthy of this zither."

Cheng Zongyang inexplicably felt that he should say something at this moment, "Your Highness the Fifth Prince, Princess Yongle, please take a seat."

Chu Heng glanced at the piano and walked inside, and Chu Wan hurriedly followed.

"Fifth brother, doesn't Third brother treasure his zither very much? How could he be willing to give it away?" Chu Wan approached Chu Heng and whispered.
