vs 287 Greetings of all kinds
The etiquette of visiting the doctor is such that the host needs to excuse himself three times and does not accept gifts from guests. As the guests enter the door, the host acknowledges the deignces of the guests. After the guests leave, the host sends the guests off and bows twice.
When a former official who had been a doctor's retainer came to see him, the host would thank the guest for the gift and then accept it, saying: I would like to thank you in the next place, but I could not get the consent, so I dare not say thank you again. Guests walk through the door, put down their gifts, bow twice, and thank the host once.
After the guests exited, the host asked the hostess to return the gifts given by the guests outside the door, and the hostess said: "So-and-so envoy is coming down to return the gifts." The guest replied, "Since I have already met the Master, I take the liberty to say thank you." The host of ceremonies replied: "So-and-so is under the order of the next and said, 'I dare not be this majesty.'" 'I take the liberty to ask again. The guest replied that he was a humble retainer of the Master's family, and that it was not enough to perform this guest courtesy, so he took the liberty of saying thank you again. The host of ceremonies replied: "So-and-so said, 'Don't dare to be this majesty', Rong asked again! The guest replied: I insisted on thanking you and did not get permission, and I dared not obey the order! Guests receive gifts in two bows.
When the doctors meet each other, they should use geese as gifts, tie their bodies with cloth sewn clothes, tie their feet with ropes, and the ceremonial posture of holding geese is the same as that of holding pheasants.
When the doctors meet each other, they use the lamb as a greeting gift, decorate it with a sewn cloth garment, tie the front and hind feet of the lamb with ropes, intersect from the bottom of the belly to the back, and finally tie a rope on the chest of the lamb. Like holding a fawn in both hands, holding the front and back feet in both hands, holding the lamb horizontally, with the sheep's head facing to the left, the etiquette is the same as the greeting of the scholar.
When you first meet the monarch and go to the bottom of the main hall with a gift in your hand, your face should be more respectful and honest, and you will be cramped and uneasy. When the commoners greeted the king, they did not make a quick and leaping appearance, but only walked quickly. The scholar needs to put down the gift, bow to the king twice, kowtow to the ground, and the king will bow back in reply. If a person from a neighboring country comes to see him, the king will order the master of ceremonies to return the gift, saying, "The widow will return the gift to the gentleman." The guest replied, "The king does not regard a foreign minister as a subordinate, and the minister does not dare to refuse." The guests bowed twice, bowed to the ground, and received the gifts.
Whoever sees the king in private, when the king faces south, he must bow from the north. If the monarch is not located due south, the monarch faces east, or west, and the minister must bow directly to the monarch, and the ruler must face the monarch diagonally in anticipation of the king's orientation. The monarch is in the main hall, and the ministers ascend the hall to see the monarch, and there is no certain step to climb the steps, but it depends on the position of the monarch, and it is more convenient to approach the monarch.
Anyone who talks to the king, and does not answer the king's questions, must wait for the king to sit down before speaking.

When making suggestions or advice to Dr. Qing, you should look at the other person's face at first, and then look down at the other person's embrace, and then look up at the other person's face. The person giving the advice should be upright and not change his appearance. When many doctors were present at the same time, so was the ceremony. If you talk to your father, your eyes can swim, and the range of your gaze should not be higher than your face and lower than your belt. If you don't speak, look at the other person's feet when you stand and look at the person's knees when you sit.
Whenever the gentleman sits idly, the gentleman begins to yawn and stretch, asks the time for morning and evening, tells the attendant to prepare a meal, or constantly changes the position of sitting, and when he sees these signs of exhaustion, he can retire. If the other party asks the time and starts to eat meat and vegetarian food, it means that he is tired, and the person who sits with him can retire.
When a servant sits with the king, if the king gives him food, the king will first offer food (before eating, after the dishes are arranged, the host will guide the guests to perform the sacrificial food). In order to show that they do not forget their roots, the ancients must first set aside a small number of dishes from the plates and bowls before each meal, and put them on the table to repay the ancestors who invented the diet. If you eat a leftover meal in your own home, or eat a meal prepared by your juniors, you don't have to perform a sacrificial meal.)
When the king performs the ritual of sacrificing food, the ministers need to taste the food for the king, and after the food is served, the ministers taste all kinds of dishes for the king, and wait after drinking. Wait for the king's order before eating. If the king gives a wine to his ministers, the ministers need to leave their seats, bow to the ground twice, and then catch the wine vessels, and when they return to their seats, they will sacrifice wine first, and then wait after toasting. After the king toasted, the servant handed over the empty wine vessel to the praiser.
When the subordinates retired, they knelt down in the hall to take their shoes, and retreated to a hidden place before putting them on. If the king stands up for his ministers, his ministers need to say: The king does not stand up, and the ministers dare not refuse. If the monarch walks down the main hall to see him off, the scholar will not dare to turn back and say goodbye, and will go out directly. When the doctor serves the monarch and retires, if the monarch walks down the main hall to see him off, the doctor needs to say goodbye, and when he walks to the door, he needs to say thank you three times.
If the doctor or a retired doctor comes to the scholar's house, the doctor needs to say goodbye. If the resignation is not allowed, the priest will say: "If you are immoral and incompetent, you deserve to be condescended to see him, and since you are not allowed to resign, you will go out to meet him." After the taxi goes out, it needs to pay homage to the guests first.
