The men in the Shenwu Gate can't trespass, they can only ask the grandmother and the maid to bring in, the location is in the Qin'an Hall in the Imperial Garden, the grandmothers dressed up their show girls properly, and quietly encouraged, "Don't be afraid, be bold, long live the queen and the queen mother to ask, to talk loudly, just don't be too impulsive, the clothes and jewelry are all in order, long live the Lord must like it when you see it!" ”

On this day, the palace was really lively, and the Fujin and the women of the near branch were called into the palace one after another to help the ceremony after the establishment. For a long time, there were officials of the Ministry of Internal Affairs, who entered the hall and laid out two chairs, which were the thrones of the queen mothers of the two palaces, and another chair was set up on the east side, which was where the emperor sit. On the imperial case, there is a handle inlaid with jade Ruyi, a pair of red satin embroidered purses, and another silver plate, with ten colored head sticks, and the queen of Tongzhi is selected from these ten color head lots.

The bell struck eight times, the emperor served the queen mother of the two palaces, and a group of noble ladies led by the king Fujin followed, and the ministers of the interior who waited for the envoy to pay a salute were served, and then they were ordered to bring the ten selected show girls into the palace. The girls in the Eight Banners are all here, all of them are peerless Fengshen handsome, and their actions are steady and extraordinary, and they have performed the ceremony the day before, so they entered the hall, stood in a position that should stand unhurriedly, divided into two rows, and calmly bowed, only to hear the Empress Dowager Cixi say: "Stand up!" ”
