Before entering the Imperial Garden, Shen Ning and the others also went through the procedure of body search.

Several of them can be regarded as well-established, but the necessary procedures still have to be followed, and the people sitting in the imperial garden are all relatives of the emperor.

If it weren't for Beimang going south, Shen Ning guessed that the Emperor of the Great Jin Dynasty might also come to the Imperial Garden today to participate in Xianhui's ceremony.

On the way to the Imperial Garden, Wei Liang reminded softly: "Immortal Master Shen, in a while, the Empress Dowager will be sitting on the high platform, and Shen Gongzi needs to stand more than ten feet away from the Empress Dowager to salute. ”

Shen Ning bowed his head, indicating that he was clear.

Coming to the Imperial Garden, before Shen Ning and the others came, there were already many royal family members seated, most of them were women, but there were also some adult men who were older.

As is arranged according to the door-shaped structure, after entering the field of vision, Shen Ning and the others bowed to the empress dowager in unison:

"Ministers, meet the Empress Dowager, Holy Blessings and Gong'an!"

There are two positions on the main seat, the Empress Dowager is sitting on the left side, she is over sixty years old, her silver hair is tied up with a golden hairpin, and her red and black robe is lifted by the maid and tailed, with a kind smile, but with a sense of majesty, "They are all good offspring, get up and sit down." ”

"Empress Dowager Xie."

Shen Ning and his entourage sat on the right side of the right side not very far from the main seat under the arrangement of the chamberlain, after all, logically speaking, they would be one of the supporting roles.

The protagonist is, of course, the winning immortal of the ceremony.

There are melons and fruits in front of everyone, but no one eats them, Dajin pays attention to etiquette, and when holding and ceremonies, it is necessary to go through the welcome, in place, and open the ceremony.... and other cumbersome details, although there are differences in the royal event, but there is basically no difference.

"Those who came to the Imperial Garden today are all my children surnamed Ying, and the mourning family also allowed several young talents from Shenjing City to come to watch the ceremony." Saying that, the Empress Dowager looked at Shen Ning and them, and when she saw Shen Ning, her eyes stayed for a moment, and continued: "Pingyang, this girl, the mourning family has always been favored, and it is her blessing that you can come to participate in her ceremony. ”

"Princess Xuan Pingyang, let's salute." The Empress Dowager ordered to go down.

On the west side of the Imperial Garden, a young woman washed her hands in the cup, and then walked towards everyone, she wore a pale green palace skirt, swaying and mopping the floor, green silk like a waterfall spread, Danfeng eyes and willow eyebrows, between the eyebrows and eyes revealed a woman's unique gentle beauty, people can no longer take their eyes off after a glance.

Rao is Shen Ning was a little stupid when he watched it for a while.

"It's so beautiful!" Sima Xiangru, who was sitting next to Shen Ning, whispered softly: "It should be a heavenly maiden descending to earth, but you can't blaspheme it from a distance!" ”

Shen Ning came back to his senses and said with a smile: "Brother Xiangru, has he changed his attention?" ”

"It's enough to have Wenjun below." Sima Xiangru scratched his head and said with an embarrassed smile: "It's just that I saw extremely beautiful things in the next place, and I couldn't help myself for a while." ”

Shen Ning smiled and didn't ask any more.

When she walked into the banquet and saw Shen Ning sitting here, a shallow smile appeared on Ying Xianhui's face, her brother Ning had really come to attend her ceremony.

Slowly walking in front of the Empress Dowager, Si Luo presented a comb and other items, this series of actions is called "Chu Jia".

After the Empress Dowager picked up the comb, Si Luo said loudly: "On the auspicious day of the month, the first plus yuan is served." Abandon Er Youzhi, Shun Er Chengde, Shou Kao for Qi, Jieer Jingfu. ”

When Si Luo finished reading the congratulatory speech, Ying Xianhui knelt beside the Empress Dowager, combing for herself.

According to common sense, this should be presided over by Ying Xianhui's biological mother, the queen of the Great Jin.

Since the death of Empress Changsun, Emperor Jing has not set up another empress, so the Empress Dowager presided over the ceremony.

After that, there are a series of cumbersome processes.

Shen Ning, who was sitting at the banquet, didn't feel bored, he liked the feeling like this now, quietly watching Ying Xianhui's adulthood.

When Ying Xianhui entered the Imperial Garden, the Empress Dowager ordered a few drops of fruit wine with a bamboo skewer on her red lips, and the ceremony was considered to have completed most of the process.

The melons and fruits on Shen Ning's table were also removed by the palace maid and replaced with the recipe for the banquet.

The recipes of Helu Li are not sumptuous, they are all ordinary side dishes, but they are from the hands of the imperial chef of the court, and the taste and aroma are a little different.

Sima Xiangru drank a few glasses of fruit wine, squeezed his eyebrows at Shen Ning and said, "Brother Shen, you see that Princess Pingyang is looking at you." ”

Shen Ning put down the wine glass, raised his eyes, and the moment the four eyes met, Ying Xianhui's fair face turned red all of a sudden, and he lowered his head shyly.

"Such a beauty, Brother Shen should be a good blessing." Sima Xiangru smiled and raised a glass of fruit wine to salute Shen Ning.

"Hmph, Brother Sima has something to say, don't talk nonsense." Gao Gong snorted coldly, his expression was quite disdainful, the appearance of winning Xianhui just now had already been deeply engraved in his mind.

Whether it was from the family or personally, Sima Xiangru's words were undoubtedly stirring his nerves.

"Brother Gao Gong, Brother Shen is naturally worthy of Princess Pingyang, there is nothing wrong with my words." Sima Xiangru narrowed his eyes, "It's Brother Gao Gong, think more about whether you are worthy of ...... in everything."

"Sima Xiangru, you are really sharp-toothed!" Gao Gong was indignant.

There were many relatives of the emperor present, and Gao Gong said that Sima was similar, and it was not good to have a seizure, so he could only drink and vent his dissatisfaction in his heart.

Shen Ning shook his head when he saw this, this person can be said to be a vegetable and fun-loving.

To a certain extent, for the royal family, the ceremony is a banquet with the relationship between the main vein and the Punzhila Sutra, so after winning the virtuous and benefiting the Xuan, everyone sent congratulatory speeches, and the banquet slowly changed to the direction of the wine banquet.

Naturally, he can't drink Du Kang and a kind of wine with too much stamina, so he chose fruit wine, under the push of the cup, the warm breeze in the imperial garden, everyone was slightly drunk, and Yang Shi, the son of the official department who had never spoken, got up and saluted the empress dowager: "The empress dowager, Yang Shi, the son of the student ceremonial department, participated in the princess and the ceremony today, and I felt that there was a poem to offer, and I asked the empress dowager to fulfill it." ”

"Squire of the Ministry of Rites, you are the eldest son of the Yang Qi family, I heard that you are the top student in high school, and now you are studying in the Hanlin Academy?" The Empress Dowager asked lightly.

"Tell the Empress Dowager, that's true." Yang Shi replied calmly.

The Empress Dowager glanced at Yang Shi a few times and nodded, "The mourning family is approved." Immediately, a palace maid brought pen, ink, paper, and inkstone.

Sima Xiangru glanced at Shen Ning, who was drinking fruit wine and was doing nothing, pushed him with his elbow, and asked, "Brother Shen, this Yang Shi is a man of few words, but his talent is no longer below me, aren't you worried?" ”

"Thousands of troops are coming, and I will stop them." Shen Ning smiled and asked, "Brother Xiangru, why should I worry?" ”
