In fact, Shen Yuan didn't listen to what Shen Yu said at all, what she thought was that if she could enter the palace, she could take a look at the Daming Palace, which had only lasted for more than a year, and this magnificent palace had disappeared in the long river of history, and it would be such a lucky thing to be able to live at this time.

"Huh? Brother, what did you just say, getting married? Did I hear me right, my brother is getting married? ”

Shen Yu shook his head helplessly after hearing this.

"What do you think about this girl, absent-minded, I mean you don't have to enter the palace when you get married."

"Don't get married, I want to enter the palace."

"Could it be that you are also greedy for the rich and powerful."

Shen Yu looked at Shen Yuan with some puzzlement.

"Brother still doesn't know my temperament, although everyone wants to be rich and noble, but for me, those rich and noble I am not rare, it is enough to be able to support myself, I entered the palace not for glory and wealth, I just want to live in the magnificent Daming Palace, most of the good family children enter the palace as slaves and maids, and they can be released from the palace when they are old, and they will be released after a few years, if they can't get out, they can also be a female official in the bureaus, you don't have to worry."

Shen Yu's face was full of surprise after hearing this: "You want to enter the palace just to live in the Daming Palace?" Are you sick? Besides, if you can't live, it's not necessarily that. ”

"You're sick, what's wrong with entering the palace, I just want to see what the Daming Palace looks like, so I don't have to worry about you, brother."

After Shen Yuan finished speaking, he left Shen Yu and walked away.

Knowing that he had the opportunity to enter the palace, Shen Yuan thought back to the only history of Tang Xuanzong in his memory every day, and after thinking for a long time, he found that he had no trace of this period of history at all, except for Yang Guifei.

But after coming to the Tang Dynasty for so long, I haven't heard of any deeds of Yang Guifei, presumably Yang Guifei hasn't met Tang Xuanzong yet.

The orders and flower and bird envoys sent by the saint to various places soon arrived, and Shen Yuan could leave for the palace as a good family in January.

Shen Yizhi is a conservative person, he has never had any requirements for the rich and noble, if it weren't for the fact that he couldn't disobey the holy decree, Shen Yizhi would never let Shen Yuan enter the palace, but the holy decree has been issued, and he can only ask for more blessings for Shen Yuan.

Although Shen Yizhi still has some patriarchal preference in his bones, Shen Yuan's performance over the years has made Shen Yizhi also quite important, and Shen Yuan is still a little uneasy when he enters the palace, and he must come to tell Shen Yuan every day before he is willing to stop.

Although Shen Yuan does not have a deep relationship with her parents here, she does not dare to forget the nurturing grace of more than ten years, and she waits by her parents' side every day on the eve of parting.

I don't know when I will be able to meet them again in the palace, and the reluctance is spontaneous, although it is just a month, it can be regarded as Shen Yuan's filial piety for more than ten years.

Time always flies in a hurry, and it has come to the day of entering the palace in a flash, the road from Wuxing to Chang'an City is far away, Shen Yizhi and Shen Niangzi are reluctant to give up on Shen Yuan, and they are very worried, before parting, Shen Yuan knelt down to say goodbye to Shen Yizhi and Shen Niangzi.

"The daughter is not filial, can not serve by the side of Ye Ye A-Niang, after the pearl leaves, forget Ye Ye and A-Niang to take care of their bodies, don't worry too much, I don't know what year and month to see each other again, I wish Ye Ye A-Niang all the health and smooth, the little girl is here to say goodbye."

Shen Yuan kowtowed and then turned to leave.

Shen Yuan may not want to leave because she is afraid of turning back, or she may be afraid that the delay will make everyone sad even more, so she didn't look back until she left Wu Xingcheng.

Along the way, Shen Yuan has never been able to chat happily like other good families, saying goodbye to his parents here but missing his parents more in modern times, it has been nearly 14 years since his accident, and his parents are now old, I don't know if they are okay without their own lives, and they are stunned.

"Why is my sister worried, and I don't see my sister talking along the way, but I miss my hometown?"

A woman with clear eyebrows asked Shen Yuan with a smile.

"Of course, I don't know when I will be able to see my family again when I go to the palace, and I am reluctant."

After Shen Yuan said this, she stopped talking, and the woman stopped talking to Shen Yuan when she saw that Shen Yuan ignored her.

Along the way, the mighty carriages and horses finally entered Chang'an City, and as soon as they entered the city gate, they could hear the melodious sound of music and drums, and the shouting of the vendors was also endless.

The wide streets are full of traffic, even the exotic customs of Fanbang abound, and the street stalls are full of dazzling goods, if the modern streets are prosperous, and Chang'an City at this time is definitely not inferior.

The ancient underdeveloped society, but he didn't expect it to be so magnificent, which couldn't help but make Shen Yuan sigh in his heart, sighing for the prosperity of the Tang Dynasty.

After entering Chang'an City, he did not go directly to the palace, but was arranged in the soup bathhouse, and all good family members must come here to fast and bathe for three days before entering the palace.

Shen Yuan has also read some ancient novels before, all of which say that in ancient times, they used wooden basins to bathe, but they didn't expect that this was not the case in ancient times, but they went directly into the pool to soak, like a public bath, it seems that some words still can't be believed.

In addition to fasting and bathing in the past three days, I also have to learn basic etiquette with the female officials in the palace, the etiquette in the palace is complicated, and it is completely different from what I learned in Wuxing, everything seems to have to start all over again, Shen Yuan suddenly felt that he had dug a pit and buried himself.

In the Tang Dynasty, the court paid the most attention to etiquette, and just one kneeling ceremony made all the good families complain again and again.

(Prostration: Etiquette when meeting.) You need to sit on the floor with your hips close to your heels. Stretch your waist and lift your hips off your heels, and kneel when you land on both knees. There are nine types of kneeling rituals: the head of the bow, the head of the pause, the head of the void, the vibration, the auspicious worship, the fierce worship, the strange worship, the praise of the bow, and the solemn worship.

When bowing to the head, the head is prostrate to the ground, the fists are clenched, and the left hand is pressed against the right hand. When you worship, your head falls down to your hands, and then you bow down to the ground, and your head falls to the ground. When the hand is handed to the ground, the hand still does not let go. The hands are in front of the knees, and the head is in front of the hands. The chief is the courtesy of the minister to the king. The chief and the hand worship form a salute to show great respect.

Bow down, one of the nine prostrations. You need to sit on the ground, the posture is similar to kneeling, and when you make a bow, take a kneeling position, first bow your hands to the ground, and then lead your head to the ground, and then immediately raise it. Because the head touches the ground for a short time, only a slight pause, it is called a pause. It is a salute between peers. The head of the audit is a word of praise, and the head of the head is a word of pleading. Later, because of the importance of prostration, people also used "pause" when they had a request for something important.

Bow down to the woman, kneel and bow your hands. It is lighter than the ritual of bowing to the hands with empty heads, and to bow down with the hands hanging down, so that although the head is prostrate, it is not up to the hands, and the hands are hanging down, but they are not touching the ground.
