"What, how could there be such a rumor?!"

Yan Zixi was stunned in place, looking at Xiaomei with a surprised face.

Xiaomei shook her head, "This slave doesn't know, anyway, it's already spread on the street......"

"Xiaomei, these days, you secretly went to help me investigate the source of this news."

"Yes, Princess."

Yan Zixi didn't believe that there would be such a rumor in the neighborhood for no reason, someone must be secretly instructing a walk.

Who could it be?

Yan Zixi's first thought was Murong Qianqian.

The county lord of Qianqian hated her to the core, but the strange thing is that this time she didn't come over to make trouble when she married Xiao Jingcong, which is completely inconsistent with her style.

Maybe she had been planning something for a long time, maybe this rumor was spread by her and wanted to bring her down.

Of course, these are just some speculations by Yan Zixi, she has no evidence, and it is impossible for her to question Murong Qianqian.

Even if you go to her, people will deny it, but she will beat her upside down.

Forget it, for now, let's take one step at a time, it's useless to think so much.

As long as Xiao Jingcong believes in himself, it's fine.

Thinking of this, Yan Zixi prepared to go back.

But when Yan Zixi just walked out of the main entrance of the main hall, she was stopped by Mama Rong.

"Young princess, where are you going in a hurry?"

"Hmph, Mama Rong, do I still have to inform you where this princess is going?" Yan Zixi rolled her eyes, glared at Mama Rong, and hummed in her mouth.

"Oh, that's not, you are the young princess, the old slave naturally didn't dare to ask where you went, but the lady specially explained to the old slave and asked the old slave to teach you court etiquette from today on, the young princess, you shouldn't have forgotten, right?"

Mama Rong looked at Yan Zixi proudly and said, and there was a hint of cruelty on her old face, as if she wanted to avenge the last time she was scolded by Xiao Jingcong.

Yan Zixi tried hard, "The mother concubine did say it, but it's almost noon, can't you wait until after lunch to practice?" ”

"Madame has instructed, start now, if the young princess is not convinced, you can go to Madame and say."

"Madame, Madame...... Okay, learn, learn, practice! Yan Zixi glanced at Mama Rong, and could only reluctantly agree.

Mama Rong nodded with satisfaction, and then made another gesture of please, and said to Yan Zixi with a smile.

"Young princess, please come with the old slave!"

Saying that, Mama Rong led Yan Zixi to an empty flat land in the back garden and began her etiquette teaching.

"The etiquette of this court woman is mainly divided into two aspects: appearance and etiquette. The posture can be subdivided into four types: standing, walking, kneeling, and sitting......"

Mama Rong explained like a river, and after listening to Yan Zixi's momentary effort, she nodded again and again, and almost fell asleep while standing.

"Young Princess, did you hear it clearly?" Seeing Yan Zixi dozing there, Mama Rong suddenly raised her voice and shouted, so frightened that Yan Zixi suddenly opened her eyes and shouted in her mouth.

"Listen...... Heard ......"

"Hear? Okay, could the young princess tell me what kinds of looks are divided into, and what are the specific requirements and points of each one? ”

When Yan Zixi heard Mama Rong's post, the smile on her face stopped abruptly, and her mouth was full of hesitation: "This posture ...... Rongzi ......"

Mama Rong saw that Yan Zixi was hesitant for a long time, and she couldn't say a single one, so even if she sank her face, she said coldly.

"Young Princess, didn't you hear it all? Why can't you say a single one? The old slave reminds you, Madame asked me to teach you etiquette, but I will be assessed in the future, if you don't have to learn, Madame blames it, then the old slave will accompany you to be punished! ”

"Got it, got it! Long-winded, Mama Rong, you're talking about it again. ”

Mama Rong pressed the anger in her heart, her eyes rolled slightly, and she suddenly said with a smile: "Young princess, it's useless for the old slave to just say with his mouth, it's better for you to learn while doing, and the old slave will explain it on the side." ”

"Well, practice brings true knowledge, just follow Mama's."

"Very good, the old slave will demonstrate it first, and the young princess will do it with the old slave."

Saying that, Mama Rong stood in place, Yan Zixi was clever, and she stood up straight.

"When standing upright, the body is required to stand upright, look ahead, the sleeves and arms should hang down naturally, not too wide, and not sticking to the body, but naturally hanging on the sides of the body, and maintaining a calm and elegant posture!"

Mama Rong turned around and glanced at Yan Zixi, then walked over, pointed twice, and then stepped aside.

"Yes, young princess, please hold this position and stand for half an hour!"

"What? Standing for half an hour? ”

Yan Zixi was not happy when she heard it, this was simply a punishment station.

Standing in a military posture is not so tiring.

However, Yan Zixi looked at Mrs. Xiao's face, so she had to swallow her anger and do so. boundless

Mama Rong was so immortal that she deliberately found a place without shade, and Yan Zixi was almost out of breath in the hot sun.

Half an hour later, Mama Rong said: "Okay, the young princess has worked hard, let's rest for a while, and then practice other ...... later."

Yan Zixi shook her hand and twisted her waist, before she had time to be happy, she heard Mama Rong say that she had to practice something else, so she scolded angrily.

"Mama Rong, are you crazy? It's noon, and you're going to let me practice? Do you want to kill Princess Ben? ”

"Young princess, please calm your anger, Madam said, if you don't finish practicing Rongzi, the young princess won't have to eat today......"

“…… Good, good! Come, come, continue! ”

Yan Zixi gritted her teeth, she finally understood, Mrs. Xiao and this Mama Rong made it clear that they were going to put themselves to death.

Okay, this girl will accompany you to the end!

But the next few postures were not as easy as Lirong.

In particular, kneeling is generally divided into kneeling, kneeling in the preparatory posture when sitting up, and kneeling during prostration.

The former requires the knees to be shoulder-width apart, and then the body parts above the knees must remain upright and not bent at all. Then keep your toes upright, and your sleeves and hands are the same as your standing face, naturally hanging down at your sides, and your eyes are looking ahead.

The first half of kneeling is almost the same as kneeling, with your knees together and your head in line, standing upright above the waist, your toes standing up, and then your hips on your heels.

After that Mama Rong taught her, she asked Yan Zixi to keep her kneeling face, and reminded with a wicked smile on her mouth.

"Young princess, this kneeling face is the most difficult to master among the four postures, so if you have wronged the young princess, you can kneel here for two hours first!"

Rumble~~~~

Hearing this, Yan Zixi was like a thunderbolt from the sky, her eyes glared at Mama Rong even more, and she was about to get angry and scold, but Mama Rong said first.

"Young princess, the old slave knows that this may make you suffer, but the old slave is also acting on orders, if the young princess does not obey, the old slave has to invite Mrs. Xiao to come over, and when the lady comes, her old man is even stricter than the old slave!"

Yan Zixi chuckled in her heart, but she didn't doubt the truth of Mama Rong's words at all.

Mrs. Xiao hated herself to the core, and let her come over in person, I was afraid that she would have to suffer more.

You guys took advantage of Xiao Jingcong's absence, and you all bullied me, right? Okay, I'll put up with it!

Yan Zixi didn't say a word, turned her head directly, and stopped looking at Mama Rong.

Seeing that Yan Zixi didn't resist anymore, Mama Rong was also idle, and after sitting in the shade next to her for half an hour, she suddenly felt a little anxious, so she got up and walked in front of Yan Zixi and commanded.

"Young princess, it's convenient for the old slave to go, go back when you go, and please don't be lazy young princess." With that, Mama Rong hurriedly turned around and left.

Yan Zixi couldn't hold on anymore, and when she saw Mama Rong walking away, she immediately sat down on the ground.

"No! Isn't this a fool not to run? ”

Yan Zixi muttered, and then quickly got up from the ground, pulled out his legs and ran away.

ran into the bamboo forest in the back garden in one breath, and Yan Zixi sat on a stone bench to catch her breath.

"That dead grandmother is about to torture Aunt Ben to death."

Yan Zixi complained in her mouth, took off her shoes and socks, looked down, and found that her toes were blistered.

She pressed it lightly, and it almost didn't hurt her to death.

"What to do? Picky? ”

Yan Zixi pulled out a silver needle and tried the blisters on her feet, but she still couldn't get her hands on it after all.

"Zixi, Zixi, don't be afraid, don't be afraid, it doesn't hurt! It's good to pick it up......"

Yan Zixi hinted to herself in her heart, and when she was preparing a porcelain thorn in her hand, a child ran over.

"Sister-in-law, what are you doing?"

Yan Zixi looked up, but saw that it was Xiao Jingcong's younger brother Xiao Jingrui running over.

"Jingrui, your injuries are healed?" Yan Zixi saw that Xiao Jingrui was already able to get out of bed and walk, and it seemed that there should be no big problem.

"Well, sister-in-law Wang, Jingrui is almost fine, but her head still hurts a little......" Xiao Jingrui pointed to his forehead, which was still holding gauze, and said to Yan Zixi.

"Come here, let Sister-in-law Wang help you take a look." Yan Zixi beckoned to Xiao Jingrui and greeted him.

Xiao Jingrui frowned slightly, bit her lip, and had some hesitation on her face.

"What's wrong?"

"Mother said, saying that you are a bad person, let me not get too close...... But Sister-in-law Wang was very good to Jingrui, and she used to give Jingrui sour plums to eat...... Jingrui thinks that Sister-in-law Wang is not a bad person! ”

Yan Zixi hesitated when she heard this, thinking that Mrs. Xiao was really very prejudiced against herself, and even did not hesitate to demonize herself.

"Jingrui, don't worry, Sister-in-law Wang won't harm you! Your injury was healed by Sister-in-law Wang! Yan Zixi hurriedly explained.

Now that she is weak in the palace, she has to win over everyone who can be wooed. Xiao Jingrui is simple-minded and has a good impression of himself, so he can have a good relationship with him first.
