The emperor's heart is like a needle in the sea.
Aunt Lanruo took a careful look at Sun Miaoqing sitting in front of her. She really couldn't figure out how this person caught the emperor's eye. Not only did he ban Chang Zai, but he also gave him a title.
Among this group of newcomers, apart from Cheng Changzai, only Wan Changzai, whose appearance and demeanor resembled Queen Chunyuan, had this honor.
In addition, noble people such as Borzigit are only known by their surname.
But she did whatever her master told her to do.
The emperor asked her to teach Cheng Changzai well, and she taught him with all her heart. Otherwise, if anything goes wrong after entering the palace, she, the teaching mother, will not be able to escape the blame.
"My lord, our Manchu rules are to wear flag hair, wear flag uniforms, and only kneel down when saluting, but not kowtow. When you see the Queen, you must kneel three times and kowtow nine times.
When saluting, kneel on the ground with your back straight like this, and touch your head three times with your right hand. Touching it once means kowtow. "
"Kneel down and touch this three times. Three kneeling times is nine times. My little master, please learn to try."
After hearing this, Sun Miaoqing stood up and did what Aunt Ruolan had just done.
Kneel on the ground, straighten your chest, straighten your waist, and raise your head by touching it three times with your right hand.
Stand up and kneel again until you have completed the ritual of kneeling three times and prostrating nine times.
Qiangwei said with a smile, "Young Master did a great job."
Suzuran also nodded, "Yes, it's just like what people said, elegant."
Aunt Lanruo nodded, "Young Master has learned very well. It is already very good to be able to do this for the first time. You will not be rude when you practice in full court for another month."
Originally, she was complacent, thinking that the rules in the palace were just this. Now when she heard Aunt Lan Ruo say this, Sun Miaoqing asked directly, "Aunt Lan Ruo, is there any other secret here?"
Aunt Lan Ruo said, "Young master, I don't know. The emperor and the queen mother value the most rules, so everyone in the palace has a pair of discerning eyes."
"For the little masters, kneeling three times and prostrating nine times is an extremely serious etiquette. It is a great gift that can only be performed on specific occasions or to the most distinguished people.
So how to straighten your waist, how high to raise your hands, the rhythm of your movements, and even your eyes all have their own rules. "
"My little master, you can take your time in everything else, but you must study this carefully."
Linglan looked puzzled when she heard this. She didn't expect that when she became a concubine in the palace, she would have to learn how to kowtow like a slave.
Sun Miaoqing said, "I understand, please give me more advice."
Aunt Lanruo said, "My little master is so eager to learn, I will definitely give you all my money to teach you."
"Speaking of which, girls Qiangwei and Suzuran need to work more on how to salute."
"This slave has been in the palace since she was a child. She has served in the palace for three or four years before she learned how to kneel."
(This was said by an old eunuch from the Qing Dynasty. He only learned to kneel after a few years in the palace. The rules are so terrible.)
Qiangwei and Suzulan looked at each other in surprise. Suzulan couldn't help but say, "It takes three or four years to learn how to kneel. The rules in the palace are so strict."
Aunt Lan Ruo smiled and said, "The majesty of the Tian family is naturally extraordinary."
Sun Miaoqing looked at her knees and then at the sun outside.
Thinking that it would be several hours before dinner, and that dinner was not just about eating, but practicing the rules of eating, my eyes suddenly became dizzy, and I wished I could lie down on the ground like a rabbit kicking an eagle.
But if you don't learn the essence and practice like Xia Dongchun, it will be even more difficult to enter the palace.
Apart from anything else, as long as Daju has her heart, if she fails to learn the rules well, she will be punished by kneeling at the gate of the palace for a long time, what can she do.
How about preparing a few kneeling ones first?
... ...
She originally thought that she could finally relax for a few days before entering the palace, but under Aunt Lan Ruo's guidance, Sun Miaoqing suddenly lost more than ten kilograms, her double chin disappeared, and her whole body became more three-dimensional.
At Aunt Lan Ruo's request, Sun Miaoqing used flower oil prepared from more than a dozen kinds of flowers to condition her hair every two days.
Every night when bathing, add a basin of milk and good rose juice to the water.
Before going to bed, you have to apply several kinds of ointments all over your body, so that your whole body will be soaked in the smell.
The day before entering the palace, Aunt Lan Ruo put ointment on her body and looked at the results during this period with a look of joy on her face.
Sun Miaoqing seriously suspected that Big Fat Orange had hinted at her before she came!
However, thinking about her much whiter skin and her appearance that has reached a new level, Sun Miaoqing feels that the hard work these days has not been unacceptable.
After all, what woman doesn’t want to be more beautiful!
Sure enough, there are no ugly women, only lazy women. She is beautiful to begin with!
