The so-called passing of the hall is a necessary etiquette for a royal marriage.

After determining the candidate, the emperor will summon the newlyweds who are about to marry before the marriage date is determined, firstly, in order to change their words and officially enter the royal family, and secondly, to introduce the future princess or concubine to the close courtiers to show their closeness.

Today, Zhize and I will have a ceremony in the Chaofeng Hall. The two of us stood in formal attire, with the Emperor sitting majestically in the main seat. Since Zhize's mother had passed away long ago, the queen mother sat in the side seat that originally belonged to the prince's mother. More than a dozen ministers sat on either side.

After the three sects and nine knocks, a eunuch slowly came out of the ranks and recited the holy decree in his hand aloud: "Fengtian carrier, the emperor's edict said: The daughter of the Feng family in Chang'an, smart and virtuous, dignified and virtuous, I love it deeply, and I am specially married to the emperor's eldest son, Yuan Zhize, the king of Hanzhong." Another case of money and brocade will be given, and I will do this!"

"Thank you for your kindness!" Zhi Ze and I both fell to the ground and saluted, from now on, I will call the person on the throne Father Emperor.

"Calm down!" the emperor's face was unwavering.

Zhize has nothing to do now, and my performance is just about to begin.

"The bride serves tea!" With the order of the eunuch of the celebrity, the two palace maids slowly came to me with two plates in their hands.

I took a deep breath and looked at the two trays in front of me.

Yes, two almost identical sets of beautiful tea sets were placed in front of me, the only difference was the material, one in gold and the other in silver.

Slowly took the silver tea set, silently recited the relevant etiquette in his heart, and after kneeling three times, he came to the queen's seat.

The moment I put the tray down, I saw the Queen looking at me with a smile on her face.

Under the gaze of everyone, I solemnly held the handle and lifted the teapot, and with the sound of a brisk flow of water, the small teacup was filled.

The fragrance of tea gradually spreads, and the faint fragrance is intoxicating.

Holding the teacup in both hands, he slowly pressed it against his forehead, feeling the slightly hot temperature.

"Queen Mother, please!" This posture of bowing down to the tea is very uncomfortable, not only the body must be leaned down as much as possible, but also in order to prevent the tea in the cup from spilling, you must put your head too high under the premise of lowering your eyes. Although I have been practicing for a short time, my body is still a little trembling.

"No courtesy. The queen mother took the teacup with one hand, helped me up with the other, symbolically dipped her lips in the rim of the cup, looked at me and said: "In the future, I will be my own family, if you encounter any difficulties, tell this palace, and this palace will try its best to help you." ”

After saying that, a sincere smile bloomed at the corner of his mouth, and almost at the same time, I saw with the peripheral eye of my eyes that several ministers on the side seemed to shake their heads very angrily.

As my eyes wandered, I suddenly instinctively felt a sharp gaze shooting at me from the stage, and I was so shocked that I almost forgot the emperor who was still sitting on it. hurriedly finished saluting the queen mother, got up and returned to the position just now.

After kneeling and bowing three times, I came to the emperor with the gold tea set in my hand.

Although he didn't do anything wrong, but under the emperor's stern gaze, his heart was still very flustered, and the hand of the teapot trembled even more.

Calm, composed, just come over this level. I kept cheering myself up in my heart.

The Emperor, still pale, watched coldly as I staggered as I poured the tea into my cup.

"The Emperor... Father, please use tea. I don't know if it's because of excessive tension, the legs supporting my body tremble violently, and my forehead is covered with beads of sweat the size of beans at some point.

The Emperor seemed pleased to continue watching my antics and was slow to reach for his teacup. You don't need to fix me like this, do you? I couldn't help but cry out in my heart, and my face turned pale at some point.

There is a lot of attention to serving tea, and if you accidentally spill the tea out of the cup, it is said that everything will go wrong in the future. Seeing that I was tired, Zhize was also a little anxious and worried.

Finally, the emperor's hands that had been on his knees for a long time finally moved away, and he couldn't help but breathe a sigh of relief in his heart.

"Wait!" Just as I felt the Emperor's hand touch the cup, a voice suddenly sounded from behind me, and I was startled and shook my body, and some tea poured out of the cup and splashed on the table in front of me, leaving a few mottled splashes.

I was sore and aching, and I had been holding on for so long, just to keep the water from spilling, which was good, and I was busy in vain. If it weren't for the emperor Lao Tzu sitting on it, he would really have jumped up and scolded that person.

Seeing that I was making a fool of myself, the emperor took the tea in my hand with satisfaction, but instead of putting it in his mouth, Mance asked in an orderly manner, "What is the matter with Jing Shilang?"

"The ministers think that the Feng family is not suitable to be a princess!" As soon as these words came out, the palace immediately caused a low discussion. I glared back at the lanky and tall minister with some annoyance, why, what did I do wrong, you want to do this to me!

The minister ignored my angry gaze at all, and still spoke there: "Wechen heard that the Feng family was wiped out, and the whole family has no bones, and marrying such an unblessed person, I'm afraid..."

I smiled wryly and sighed, this reason was finally brought out, although it was ridiculous, but it was very useful.

"Jing Chengzong! Above the main hall, how dare you make such wild words!" Zhi Ze couldn't bear it anymore, and he made a sharp accusation.

Seeing that the prince was angry, the adult retreated with interest, and Zhi Ze knelt in front of the hall in anger and complained for me: "Father, the emperor is a disaster, and he actually planted a blame on the head of a weak woman, what is the reason of heaven!

The emperor looked at the people in the stands, and then bowed his head in contemplation, quite hesitant.

"Although she is not a disaster star, she is also an unfilial person, how can she be in a high position!" Just as everyone was dumbfounded, a familiar voice sounded again, and Lord Situ, who had been silent before, stood up.

"Master..."Zhi Ze knelt on the ground and looked at his teacher in surprise, never expecting that until now, his teacher would actually have to go against him.

Wang Situ turned a blind eye to the apprentice kneeling in front of him, stepped forward, stretched out his finger tremblingly, and pointed at me angrily.

"Your Majesty, this Feng's parents are newly deceased, this daughter does not want to keep filial piety for her parents, but seduces the prince in a vain attempt to occupy a high position, how can such a disloyal and unfilial person let her stand above the court,,,"

Lord Situ's angry denunciation was like a knife, a knife cut on my heart, and I wanted to go to my deceased parents, I was speechless, only tears from the corners of my eyes slid down my cheeks.

"Feng, it stands to reason that your parents are newly mourned, and you should keep filial piety at home for three years..."

"Father..."Zhi Ze was anxious, and stood up suddenly, his words full of eagerness.

"Shut up for me!" After the emperor scolded Zhi Ze with a straight face, he then looked at me and said, "Feng, I ordered you to go home and keep filial piety to your parents for three years, how about it?"

"The folk girl obeyed. "Three years, I can't help but smile bitterly.

Seeing that I had accepted it, a group of ministers and the emperor were obviously relieved. A rare smile finally appeared on the emperor's face: "Ze'er, I will definitely choose a suitable princess for you another day!"

"Forgive Erchen, it's hard to obey your fate!" Zhi Ze rejected the emperor's kindness.

"Your Highness, you and the emperor are called father and son, but they are actually monarchs and ministers, why do you say that you have no father and no king!" Lord Situ was furious.

The emperor was also very angry, stared at Zhize who was kneeling on the ground, and asked in a trembling voice: "You... Do you want to rebel?!"

"Your Majesty, the concubine has something to say. Just when the atmosphere was tense, the queen mother suddenly stood up.
