Chapter 55 Taking advantage of the situation

Qian Xueer, who was mentioned by her, looked a little unhappy.

She said, "But you've only been back in Beijing for two months. How could you possibly have learned such exquisite techniques?"

Song Shiwei rolled her eyes at her and said, "Maybe this is called talent?"

Qian Xueer: “…”

They had studied hard for more than ten years but still could not reach this level, but Song Shiwei was able to reach the pinnacle in just two months.

It's just so irritating.

Qin Yueyao said: "I am willing to accept the loss. If you are not convinced, you can also play a song to prove yourself."

She asked Qian Xueer: "Miss Qian, haven't you always been very good at playing the piano?

I believe you can also attract the birds to come and congratulate Miss Gu, right?"

Qian Xueer was so ashamed that she felt she had no face to show. If she went on stage at this moment, she would be bringing humiliation upon herself. She gritted her teeth and felt extremely hateful.

He originally wanted to take the opportunity to embarrass Song Shiwei, but in the end he became the one who was embarrassed.

The piano skills she was so proud of became something she could no longer perform.

Song Shiwei was right, she really shot herself in the foot!

"it is good!"

Yongning Hou shouted, "This gift that Miss Song gave to my daughter is really eye-opening.

Being able to attract hundreds of birds to congratulate him with just one song, this skill is unmatched by anyone."

He asked everyone present: "Is there anyone who disagrees?"

The noble ladies, led by Wen Ruqing, all lowered their heads. They didn't even have the nerve to refute that Song Shiwei was shallow and illiterate.

Compared to her, they are the shallow and ignorant ones.

"In that case, the bet between His Royal Highness the Crown Prince and His Royal Highness Prince Ling has been won by His Royal Highness Prince Ling."

Yongning Hou said to Song Shiwei, "Go and take all the prizes you won."

Song Shiwei was not polite and immediately ordered Zhuqing and Jingque to collect the prizes she had won.

The young masters, led by the crown prince, could only bear the heartache and hand over all their things.

Soon, a box full of things was presented to Song Shiwei.

She placed the box in front of Xiao Jingheng and said, "Your Majesty and the Prince, please take your pick."

Xiao Jingheng curled his lips, picked up his tiger talisman and said to the prince: "This king accidentally won the victory over His Royal Highness the Crown Prince today, but I dare not take credit for it.

Miss Song won this round by her own strength, so all the prizes belong to you."

Song Shiwei said, "Thank you." Then she looked at Gu Yucheng and asked, "Does the prince like anything?"

Gu Yucheng looked down upon these things. He raised his head and said, "Keep them for yourself."

Song Shiwei said: "Then I won't be polite."

She held the spoils she had won and said to the young men who had lost the gambling game, “There is no use for me keeping these things.

If you want to take your things back, bring the silver to the Shen family to redeem them.

I'll give you three days. If you don't come to redeem it, I'll sell it at a public auction.

I believe there are many people in the capital who would like to collect your personal belongings."

When everyone heard this, their faces became uglier than each other. Someone said, "Aren't you just taking advantage of the situation?"

Song Shiwei said: "How can this be called taking advantage of someone's misfortune?

You lost it to me, so it belongs to me. I can do whatever I want with it. Is it illegal to do so?"

"you……"

Lin Feng, the son of the Minister of Justice, was choked by her words and was speechless for a long time.

Song Shiwei's action was indeed not illegal, but these were their valuables, how could they fall into the hands of others?

He asked, "How much silver do you want to redeem my things? You are not asking too much, are you?"

"You decide the price. You can pay whatever you think your item is worth. No one should be cheated."

Song Shiwei gave a kind smile, then handed the box to Jingque and walked to the ladies' seat.

Zhu Qing had also collected all the winnings lost by the ladies.

Song Shiwei held the heavy box and asked Qin Yueyao and Gu Tinglan: "Miss Qin and Miss Gu, do you like anything? Feel free to take it."

Qin Yueyao smiled and said, "Keep it for yourself."

Gu Tinglan deliberately took Wen Ruqing's prize out of the box and said, "I want this."

As she said this, she handed it to the maid behind her and said, "Here's a reward for you."

Wen Ruqing's face suddenly changed when she saw this. What was the difference between this and humiliating her?

However, today is a good day for Gu Tinglan, and she can only suppress her anger.

Song Shiwei said to the noble ladies: “It’s the same with you.

If you want to get your things back, you can bring silver to redeem them. You can set the price yourself. The deadline is three days. No one will be allowed after that time."

She handed the box to Zhuqing and returned to her seat.

Xiao Jingheng curled his lips and said to the prince: "Your Highness, don't forget that if you lose the prize, you will have to drink wine as a punishment."

As he spoke, he gave the order: "Bring the wine jar!"

The servants brought jars of wine one after another and placed them in front of the young men who lost the gambling.

Xiao Jingheng said: "As a man, you should stick to your word. You won't deny it, will you?"

Everyone: "..."

Wouldn't it be fatal if this jar of wine is drunk?

They really regretted it so much. Why did they make the bet for no reason? Not only did they lose their valuables, but they also had to drink a penalty.

Everyone looked at each other, hoping to escape the punishment.

Xiao Jingheng curled his lips and said, "You don't have to drink it. Just go and apologize to Miss Song and admit that you were shortsighted, and you don't have to drink this jar of wine."

After hearing this, everyone became more and more embarrassed.

It has to be said that Xiao Jingheng's move was really to trample on their faces.

Everyone here is of noble status. If they were to apologize to Song Shiwei, wouldn't that damage their own status?

While hesitating, I heard someone shout, "I'll go!"

Everyone looked up and saw that Qin Muyan, the famous playboy in the Prime Minister's Mansion, stood up first and walked towards the seats for the ladies.

He walked up to Song Shiwei, put his sleeves together and bowed to her, saying, "Miss Song, it's Qin's fault for being short-sighted. Qin apologizes to you here."

The noble ladies around were all stunned.

You have to know that Qin Muyan is well-known in the capital for being a scoundrel and not giving face to anyone.

Song Shiwei was the first person who could make him bow and apologize.

Song Shiwei nodded slightly to accept his gift.

With Qin Muyan taking the lead, those young masters who didn't want to drink themselves to death no longer cared about their face and came over to apologize to Song Shiwei and avoid the punishment.

Only His Royal Highness the Crown Prince was left sitting still.

The prince knew that Xiao Jingheng was deliberately making things difficult for him.

How could he, the crown prince of the Eastern Palace, bow his head and admit his mistake in front of so many people?

Xiao Jingheng looked at the prince and said with a smile: "Your Highness, don't be embarrassed. Today is just a pastime for entertainment. Don't take it seriously."
