princess from the underworld

Chapter 52 text 56
After a while, the banquet began.It's a pity that I thought I could relax, but who knows this is the beginning of the annoying.

Zi Yan is very inappropriate and doesn't like this kind of serious scene.

The inner hall was already full of visitors, and everyone looked serious, which was regarded as a kind of respect for Master Guo.Beside the load-bearing carved red pillars in front of the lobby, there were full of young servants with bowed brows and hands tied. Everyone was wearing new clothes. It seemed that Mr. Guo attached great importance to this ceremony.

After a while, the well-dressed Guo Yanlan lived up to expectations, and appeared in front of the crowd, followed by two maids. When she stepped into the lobby, she realized that there were more than just these two people behind her, and she saw the endless stream of maids holding a tray each. , and walked in slowly behind Yan Lan.If it weren't for the fact that the lobby is really big, otherwise Zi Yan really wondered if she would be squeezed to death in it.

Since the appearance of Ms. Lan Lan, the etiquette has begun.

It's a lengthy ceremony.

First, Mr. Guo got up and made an opening speech. The long and stinky speech made Ziyan roll her eyes again, and she couldn't help but want to leave. Finally, she sat down again under Lanzhou's insistence.

Then some praisers came out, washed their hands, and took their seats on the west steps. Afterwards, Lan Lan went to the venue, facing south, and bowed to the guests.Then face west and kneel and sit on the chair.The praiser combs his hair and puts the comb on the south side of the mat.

Then there is the guest wash, and this time the guest of honor is the former wife of the Shangshu of the Ministry of Rites——Huang.Zhengbin got up first, and Master Guo then got up to accompany him.Zhengbin washes his hands under the east steps and wipes them dry.After bowing to each other, the guest of honor and the host return to their seats and sit down.

After this complicated prelude, the theme began, and Lan Lan turned to the east seat; a secretary offered Luopa and a hairpin, and the official guest went to the person in front of the hairpin; he chanted his congratulations loudly: .Abandon Er You Zhi, follow Er Chengde. Shou Kao Wei Qi, Jie Er Jing Fu." Then he knelt down and combed the hair of the hairpin, and then got up and returned to his original position.Those who praise are ji and those who praise are symbolically upright ji.The Jizhe got up, and the guests bowed to the Jizhe to congratulate him.Ji Zhe returned to the east room, Zan Zhe took the clothes from Yousi, and went to the room to change into the plain clothes and skirts that matched the pattern on his head.

After the first addition, Kuan Lan left, and then there was one more bow, then two, two, three, three...

It was really too long, and when the banquet was about to start, it was already dark...Zi Yan had to say that the perseverance of this ancient man was really beyond her imagination!

Although she didn't pay much attention to this process, but after sitting in this chair for a whole day, and only had some refreshments, all the energy in her body was exhausted.Seeing Pan Xia's envious and flushed face, Lan Zhou stood unmoved, thinking that he would not be able to bear it if he was weak, so Bai Yiwen simply ignored all the rituals and went out to have a good time by himself Only Chen Yizhi, from the beginning to the end, his eyes never left the blue.

Yan Lan stood in the middle, and after thanking the guests one after another, she sat in the southerly seat, and the banquet began after the guests settled down.
