Chapter 227 Scheming Against Song Siyao
"Mr. Song, congratulations on receiving the honorary title of the academy's first teacher."
Seeing that the matter was settled, Yang Qian announced the results of the competition.
In fact, whether the title of the academy's top teacher was given to Jiang Yu or Song Siyao, it made no difference to him.
As long as it brings him profit, it doesn't matter who it's given to.
Shen Pei approached Song Siyao with the trophy in his hand. The smile in his eyes was like a gentle and warm spring breeze in March. "Princess Youfeng, congratulations."
Song Siyao accepted the trophy. "Thank you, Your Highness."
The two were so polite to each other that they acted as if they were complete strangers.
However, the way they looked at each other did not lie; their gazes were tender and full of affection.
But they didn't do it intentionally; it was just a natural expression.
To Jiang Yu, such a scene was like a knife being plunged into her heart.
Before this, she thought the honor of being the top teacher in the academy was rightfully hers.
Therefore, Shen Pei presented the award to her.
Even more so, she had fantasized countless times about the moment when Shen Pei would hand her the trophy.
At that moment, the image froze.
Shen Pei would look at her, his eyes only on her.
She accepted the trophy, gazing at Shen Pei; her eyes were only on Shen Pei.
The world stood still.
They only had eyes for each other.
Everyone would bless them, after all, Shen Pei is the God of War, and she is the most talented woman in the Great Zhou Dynasty and the top teacher of the academy.
Shen Pei donned armor and went into battle to fight the enemy and protect his country.
With one hand she held a pen to write about everything under the heavens, and with the other she held a book to cultivate talents for the country.
They are a perfect match, working together to create a prosperous era for the Great Zhou Dynasty.
Women all over the world would envy the love between her and Shen Pei.
Song Siyao could only stand by and watch, consumed by jealousy, yet utterly helpless.
So what if Emperor Changlong personally bestowed a title upon a princess of a different surname?
So what if he's the youngest boy general in the Great Zhou Dynasty?
Is it the same as being trampled under her feet?
Unfortunately, all her fantasies shattered the moment Shen Pei handed the trophy to Song Siyao.
Song Siyao became the envy of women all over the world.
She became the Song Siyao of her imagination, and the sparks of jealousy in her heart almost burst forth and flew everywhere.
Before meeting Song Siyao, she had never lost.
She has never won since meeting Song Siyao.
For Jiang Yu, a woman of privilege, this was like tearing off her face and throwing it on the ground to be rubbed repeatedly.
She absolutely cannot tolerate it!
Previously, Jiang Yu simply looked down on Song Siyao, thinking that Song Siyao was worthless and that she rose to power only because of her father and brothers' military achievements and her own beauty.
Jiang now hates Song Siyao to the point where it's either her death or Song Siyao's death.
From this day forward, she vowed to be sworn enemies with Song Siyao. She would repay the humiliation Song Siyao had brought her today a thousandfold in the future!
“Mr. Song, I didn’t expect you to be Master Qi. Look, you’ve received the honor of being the first teacher of the academy today. Could you please inscribe a few pieces of calligraphy for the academy?” Yang Qian asked ingratiatingly.
Song Siyao wouldn't make things difficult for him over such a small matter, so she immediately replied, "Okay."
"Thank you, Mr. Song." Yang Qian smiled broadly; his ambitions went far beyond simply getting Song Siyao to write an inscription.
He intends to use Song Siyao's identity to gain the greatest benefit from the academy's calligraphy competition.
The selection process concluded, and everyone gradually left the academy.
At the same time, Song Siyao's identity as a pen spirit became an instant sensation in the capital.
*** Mansion.
"What did you say? Song Siyao was chosen as the academy's top teacher? And she's a spirit of the Ouija board?"
***His eyes widened in anger and disbelief.
"Yes, ***, the news has spread throughout the capital. The gate of the Zhenbei Marquis's mansion is packed with people, all wanting to ask Princess Youfeng for a piece of calligraphy."
Upon hearing the servant's report, *** turned pale with anger.
Her study still has the calligraphy of the Ouija board hanging on the wall; it was her favorite, and she treasured it.
In the past, when she couldn't sleep at night, she could only calm her mind by looking at the words written by the Ouija board.
She viewed the words from the Ouija board as a form of solace.
But this soothing medicine came from the daughter of her enemy.
She now feels like a clown.
While enjoying the comfort and pleasure that Song Siyao's words brought her, she was also plotting how to kill Song Siyao.
"Go and fetch the calligraphy from the study!" *** ordered.
"Yes."
The servants quickly brought the calligraphy and painting.
*** snatched the calligraphy and painting, tore it into several large pieces, and smashed them hard on the ground.
She still wasn't satisfied, so she stepped on the shredded paper and crushed it repeatedly until it became dirty and wrinkled.
"Qi Wan, Song Changfeng, you are so lucky! Your daughters bring you honor time and time again! Qi Ran, Qi Wan, how come I never thought of that?"
Song Siyao did indeed choose the pen name Qi Ran because her mother's surname was Qi.
*** gritted his teeth, his face contorted, "Don't be too smug. Soon, I'll send her to the underworld to reunite with you!"
Wei Hongjin came to bring food to ***. She stood in the yard and heard ***'s words clearly from inside the house.
It's Song Siyao again!
Whenever the name Song Siyao appears in the *** mansion, her mother will definitely be unhappy.
She wanted to make Song Siyao disappear from this world completely, restore peace to the ancestral home, and let her mother always be happy.
Prime Minister's House.
study.
"Yu'er, how has your father taught you?" Prime Minister Jiang asked, his hands behind his back, holding a folding fan.
"Be careful with your words and actions, remain calm and composed, and never let your emotions show. Never reveal your true intentions until the very last moment," Jiang Yu replied.
"And what did you do today?" Jiang Xiang turned around, his gaze falling on Jiang Yu with a fierce and sharp look.
“Father, I’ve seen Song Siyao’s handwriting before, and it’s completely different from Master Qi’s. But during the competition today, she suddenly changed her handwriting, and it became exactly the same as Master Qi’s. That’s why I suspect she plagiarized,” Jiang Yu explained.
Snapped!
Jiang Xiang raised his hand, and the folding fan in his hand struck Jiang Yu's face with a crisp sound.
"what!"
This was the first time Jiang Yu had been hit. She screamed, covered her face, and couldn't believe she had been hit.
She was the apple of the Prime Minister's eye, a pampered girl showered with love and affection.
"Daddy!"
Jiang Yu felt extremely wronged. She gritted her teeth, letting tears well up in her eyes, stubbornly refusing to let them fall.
Jiang Xiang pointed at Jiang Yu with his folding fan, "Do you know how much face you've brought to the Prime Minister's residence today because of your mistake?"
He didn't give Jiang Yu a chance to answer and continued to berate her, "Princess Youfeng is now a favorite of the Emperor. With her around, even I, the Prime Minister of the country, have to step aside. If this matter reaches the Emperor's ears today, he will definitely question me. How am I supposed to stand in the court? Where will I put my old face?"
Jiang Yu looked at her old father, who kept talking about the Prime Minister's mansion and himself, but he never cared about his daughter.
