"Sang Ma, Sang Ma, the ceremony is going to be held tomorrow, do I need to do anything?" Seeing that Sang Ma helped me finish the last jewelry on my body, I asked out loud.

This cumbersome princess headdress costume is about to weigh me out of breath. After Ziqing left, I got up and washed, and I couldn't sleep no matter how sleepy I was.

"Back to the master, there will be a palace grandmother to teach the wedding ceremony etiquette today, this palace etiquette grandmother is to teach a lot of concubines in the harem, so the master will have to learn hard, and when the time comes, a hundred ministers will look at it, and they dare not make mistakes." Sang Ma said so seriously, I was a little scared in my heart, although I am a person in my twenties, but I have never been married when I am so old, not to mention that this ancient wedding process should be different from modern times.

"You know, your master is very smart." Although his heart was weak, he couldn't help but boast about Haikou. "Then tell the maid to make a meal, I'm hungry too."

Sang Ma smiled, nodded in response, and called Bai Zhi, who was guarding the door, to pass the meal. I've been in this place for three or four days, but I can't recognize a few of the maids in my palace. After asking around, there is no one named Jade Nettle, who is this Jade Nettle, maybe only by finding her can I go back.

Thinking that I had to learn the etiquette for a day today, I didn't have any appetite when I ate, so I tasted a few bites, so I asked Sang Ma to order a piece of green radish, and sat quietly in the main hall waiting for the etiquette mama.

I was about to take a nap when I heard another slave shouting outside the hall, "Etiquette Mama is waiting for the announcement at the palace gate." ”

"Pass it on."

After a while, an old woman was brought in. She has a vicissitudes of life, with a resentful look that can only be found in the deep palace, but the black hair of her youth has fallen like the first snow in winter, like the first frost of autumn. The roots of silver hair, half-covered and half-hidden, looming. The wrinkles on the face seem to record the twists and turns of the past.

She bowed down decently, neither humble nor arrogant, "The old slave sees the princess, the princess is blessed." ”。

Although she is an old woman, her back is straight and straight, and a brown palace maid has a unique charm on her body, and she is quite amorous, and she is a beautiful woman when she is young, but she is willing to be a slave for some reason.

"Excuse me, I don't know what Mama is going to teach me today." Tell her to get up and come.

"Princess Xie. The first palace ritual that the slave maid taught the princess today was the title. After that, he paused, and when he saw me nodding in response, he continued, "No matter how the princess used to be in Liangzhou, now in the palace in the south, she must follow the rules." Titles, from the emperor to the commoners, each has its own dignity and inferiority, and if a word is used incorrectly, it will be laughed at. ”

She looked at me, her eyes were a little stern, and her words were even sharper, "Only people of the same level can call themselves me, and the subordinates should call themselves slaves to their masters, and they will be married tomorrow, and the princess will be called concubines to the emperor, and the palace will be called this palace to other people, and the same is true for other concubines." Does the princess understand this first one? ”

She said a long series without stopping, and I was really misty when I heard it, a little vague, "Probably... I guess I understand. ”

"It doesn't matter if the princess doesn't understand, the slave will say it over and over again, until the princess understands, and the maid will record it for the princess to see." Hearing such a vague answer from me, she still replied calmly in a calm voice.

"Well, come on, give Mama a seat." It seems that she has been talking for a long time, and she really bears it.

"Without teaching the princess, the slave didn't dare to sit. If there is no problem with the first princess, the slave will go on. "Her deference and humility made me a little embarrassed, and I couldn't get down the steps, but I think it was so that I wouldn't be ashamed tomorrow, and I wouldn't be able to deal with her.

"Then Mama, tell me."

"Article 2 ......, Article 3 ......,......。"

Mama really took the trouble to tell me over and over again, and finally taught me a lot of things I didn't understand, and for a whole morning, she didn't take a breath, didn't say that she was tired, and I, who was sitting, were sleepy, but seeing that she was so dedicated, I had to listen carefully with spirit.

"The rules in the palace are roughly these, and some of the rules for dealing with people need to be figured out by the princess herself in the future. If the princess doesn't dislike it, the slave will give the princess six words. ”

Someone gave me advice, whether it was useful or not, I naturally did not refuse to come. "Don't dislike it, don't dislike it, Mama say it quickly."

"If you don't listen, you don't say anything."

Seeing that I was puzzled, she slowly explained, "Don't listen to this, there are many rumors about right and wrong in the palace, the princess only needs to do what she should do, and don't keep in mind what others say." Needless to say, disaster comes out of the mouth, so the princess should be more cautious when she is in a high position. Don't fight, since ancient times, the emperor has been so affectionate, the princess doesn't think about fighting for favor, if it's not yours, yours will come back after all. ”

After listening to Mama Gongyi's words, it was like an empowerment, and my heart was suddenly grateful.

"Mama Xie mentioned that my father-in-law will give a heavy reward. Come on, go and bring the agate bracelet given by the emperor a few days ago to Mama, it must look good to bring. ”

"The slave and maid thank the princess for the reward, this morning class is all over, the princess rests for a while, has lunch, and after two hours, the slave and maid will tell the princess about the things that need to be paid attention to in the ceremony."

Two hours later? Thinking about it, my head was big, and seeing my sad face, Mama said again, "The slave just told the princess about the process of the ceremony, and when the time comes, there will naturally be a happy mother to remind and help, and the princess will relax." ”

When she said this, I was also relieved. I sent a maid to take her to rest and eat, and let Sang Ma also serve me and drink some tea, and go to the concubine to rest for a while.

Because I knew that all kinds of etiquette were being remembered this day, and that there would be a ceremony tomorrow, my eight-year-old body would definitely not be able to bear it, so the meals they passed on were all nutritious and satisfying food.

For example, the colorful porridge is made with five kinds of grains, and the taste is glutinous and sweet. I ate lunch very seriously and planned to go around the garden to eliminate food, but when I thought that if I met Qi Hao, my head was really big, so I would honestly go and rest.

After sleeping for an hour, I was woken up by Sang Ma and said that Mama was already waiting in the main hall, so I hurriedly got up and washed up before hurrying to the front hall.

Mama had already stood straight, put her hands in front of her, bowed her head slightly, and when she saw me coming, she saluted respectfully. "Slave and maid see the princess, the princess is blessed."

"Mama is exempt from courtesy, and I have to work." Because the six-character golden words she gave me are very reasonable, and I respect her more and more, after all, at her age, for me, it is not too much to call grandma.

It's another tirade, mainly talking about the process of the wedding ceremony, and asking the Shangyi Bureau to send a wedding dress for me to try the size, and also talked about some of the exquisiteness of speaking, no time is wasted in the morning, but so many things are quite difficult to digest, I would rather endorse it.

After trying on the wedding dress, my grandmother saw that I was not interested, and I didn't want to say anything, so she kept the collection of records of the maid to me, and left a ceremonial aunt to serve, so she retired.
