Yu Junshen came at noon, and I haven't gone to eat yet.

"Po looking for me?"

"Yes."

"How?"

"Do you have any weapons for me to defend myself? I can hide it in a sleeve. ”

Yu Junshen bent down and pulled out a palm-sized dagger from the side of his boot and wrapped it in animal skin, "You can carry this with you, you can hide it in your sleeve or tie it to your arm, be careful not to hurt yourself." ”

"What's wrong with the ceremony, the focus of protection should be on the third child, if there is any scandal, then our female dependents will be in danger."

"I discussed with His Royal Highness the Crown Prince, the Crown Princess lives with you, and the location of the ceremony is close to you, so you can take care of it." Yu Junshen said, frowning is also quite good-looking.

"My father and mother." I asked worriedly.

"Don't worry, the emperor has other arrangements. At that time, I will also come to fast and live next door to His Royal Highness the Prince. ”

"Also, my few surviving uncles will have to be carefully examined......

"Bao-" Yu Junshen interrupted me, "Don't worry, believe in the emperor, the most important thing is to believe in me." ”

I laughed, this guy is such a stinky fart.

Hibiscus coughed, "Princess, it's time for you to gather for your fasting meal." ”

Alas-

I had a bitter face and drank the decoction.

Yu Junshen still had to arrange patrols and visits, and finally couldn't stay anymore, "The families of the princes and ministers go to the palace to fast, and they are very regular, but there are some snacks with them, and they also turn a blind eye, not as strict as you princesses and princes, for fear of being used, you mentioned letting the princess carry things, I have some ideas, I'm afraid that people in Western Xinjiang also have ideas." I'll go find Father-in-law Dingji and discuss. ”

————

Yu Junshen jumped out of the window and left, fortunately, there was no one in the courtyard, otherwise it would not be clear.

Hibiscus helped me out the door.

The second sister came over early and didn't call me, but the sixth sister was waiting for me at the door of the dining room, and her eyes lit up when she saw my figure, and she waved her hand, "Sister Huang, this way." ”

"Uh, what's the matter?"

"How do you know I'm okay?"

"The court is public, the sisters are here, you are used to etiquette, so unorthodox to wait for me at the door,——"

"Imperial Sister—"

"I'm a little hungry, how about I finish eating?"

I felt like I had arrived in the big cafeteria, and after my younger siblings saluted me, they all looked at the food in front of me with pale faces, the rice was good, the dishes were good, and it was not good without salt.

There are three long tables in this cafeteria, and there are more than a dozen chairs on the side, and the younger siblings are divided into men and women and sit next to each other.

They don't even move their chopsticks, what are they waiting for me for? Every time the banquet starts early, don't wait for me.

I walked over to the empty seat and looked down at the empty plates, and the rice bowls were full.

The cook standing next to me immediately came over with a wooden basin the size of a laundry basin, and the other took a big spoon and put boiled cabbage on my plate......

"Princess, you use it slowly." The cook with the spoon smiled and bowed.

"What are you looking at me for? Some of them are good to eat, don't eat at noon during the fasting period, don't be noisy and hungry at night, and don't think about the hidden snacks to satisfy your stomach. Mama Gong will come to check the room in a while, and I believe that she can't hide it. ”

I picked up the dishes and chopsticks and started eating.

Everyone looked different and began to take chopsticks.

The fifth brother and the eleventh brother stirred the boiled vegetables on the plate with sad faces, and barely ate a few bites of rice. The third brother and the eighth brother ate it up peacefully.

I finished half of the plate and the rice didn't move. When he put down his chopsticks, he turned his head to look at his sisters.

The second sister didn't move at all, the fourth sister barely ate half a bowl of rice quietly, the sixth sister ate a few bites of rice, and the seventh and ninth sisters ate some vegetables and the rice didn't move.

"Withdraw." I got up, and Hibiscus helped me out.

At the door, Mama Gong stood there and stopped us.

"Stay, Qin Tianjian and the people from the Ministry of Rites are waiting at the altar, practicing the ritual process, and asking the princess and prince to move. The emperor and queen, as well as all the mothers, are already waiting. Please come with me. ”

Mama Gong turned around and left, not afraid that we would not follow. Dozens of Qin Heavenly Eunuchs, wearing tall hats, stood guard in the verandah, staring at us.

Yu Junshen watched us leave with Qin Tianjian from the corner, and did not move.

The priest waited for us under the altar where the ancestors were worshipped, and they bowed from a distance.

"Then, I'll take the princes to the east." The eunuch nodded at Mama. Mama moved her head slightly, stretched out her hand, and the maid on the side handed a whisk, "Princesses, come with me over here." The west side enters the altar. ”

I squinted at the dust, and my back eyes were a little sore...... When I was a child, I was used by my mother to educate ......

We lined up in large and small rows, and followed Mama to the west steps of the altar.

I looked back at the high altar door and saw someone standing there.

Mama swept the edge of my bun with a whisk, and I shuddered.

"Tomorrow morning, you will gather here to rehearse the festival process, and this part of the route, you will have to be familiar with it in a few days, and you will close your eyes and complete it in a limited time. This afternoon, you are familiar with it, and tomorrow it will officially begin. ”

"Come over here," Mama said, as she ascended the steps, "stand in a row, and I'll show you the way in." ”

We lined up and stood quietly, and everyone began to be dignified like princesses, including the youngest fourteen-year-old Chengrou.

"You come from the temple and divide into two groups, and the girls will offer the fruit from the west steps. Then come down from the middle steps, line up in a line, wait for the prince to finish reading the sacrificial speech, the emperor and queen offer sacrificial wine, the prince bears the sacrificial incense, and the royal children salute and the ministers follow suit, and then salute you. Isn't it simple? ”

No one dared to answer.

"Well, let's go through it." Mama waved the dust, "Let's familiarize yourself with the process before the festival first!" Before dinner, the ladies of the ministers' families came, you don't want to behave worse than the ministers' families, do you? Mama shook the dust again.

We shook in unison.

－－－－

Zhang and Li really lived together, just the empty house next door to me. Yu Junshen will really arrange - looking at the two babas looking at me and asking me what I want to eat, who can bear not to give it......

"Cheng En is really right, you must have something to eat here!" Zhang Suyao's eyes narrowed when she ate, and she looked a lot softer, a little less heroic.

Li Yan slowly ate the second piece of dim sum, and only after wiping the corners of his mouth did he speak, "I walked a long way, and I couldn't hold it anymore before I came to bother." ”

"Always welcome." I spoke slowly, sitting upright and unmoving.

"Did you fall into your neck?" Zhang Suyao said.

I shook it slowly, squinting and smiling, "You'll be like this tomorrow too, trust me." ”

The two glanced at each other, and Zhang Suyao then spoke: "What's wrong with you?" ”

"My palace grandmother told me to keep an eye on my manners......" I said, "I don't look like a rooster standing on the roof?" ”

The two were stunned for a moment, Zhang Suyao laughed, and Li Yan coughed.

Hibiscus was stunned for a long time before she reacted and covered my mouth, she was a little anxious, and she stammered, "Princess-princess-Lord-"

Then he couldn't hold back, and he bent down and coughed.

Mama knocked on the door, "Sit and lie down with good manners, good posture, neat clothes, solemn expression, and decent speech, which one have you done?" ”

We were startled and quickly shut down.

"Who just laughed?" Mama asked.

We stared at Zhang Suyao and didn't dare to reply.

Zhang Suyao closed her eyes, said fiercely, trembling, "Back to Mama, it's my ......"

"Come out, I'll teach you how to be a lady." Mama said coldly, "Do you still need me to invite?" ”

We looked at her sympathetically.

Zhang Suyao stood up and walked to the door as if she were dead......

Mama Gong is a well-known strict upbringing in the city, sometimes for cousins, the beautiful mother often lends her to the young lady in the family -

Ask for your own blessings...... Yes.

"Who else just stuttered and coughed?"

Hibiscus resigned himself and walked out.

"What else?"

Forget it, Mama won't stop if she doesn't mess me up, she always wants to have more opportunities to raise me......

I also resigned myself to my fate, and I had to stand upright, and my waist was always straight...... Tired...... Li Yan also wanted to go out with him, but I stopped him with my eyes.

But Mama led us to another courtyard, and she still found Li Yan.

I see, this is a small stove for us......

And then, I really haven't lowered my head once in the past few days......

Mama, you cow! I haven't been trained by you for years, and this time I am worse than dead......

Deepened my fear of you again......

It's horrible...... And that whisk......

My calves, my arms, the back of my head...... It hurts......
