There was nothing to say all night, and the servants came to pay their respects as usual the next morning.

As soon as I greeted you, the imperial decree came.

Xi Gonggong took the imperial decree and first read a long paragraph of names, and then talked about the key points, probably saying that the wedding was in a hurry, and the queen and the servants would not have time to learn palace etiquette at home in the future, so the emperor specially sent a nun to teach They are polite.

Li Xuandu frowned, and the scene of Little Yanzi being taught by Nanny Rong appeared in his head.

"Where is the virtuous servant?" Eunuch Xi realized that there was one person missing after reading the imperial decree.

Li Xuandu said: "The virtuous servant is weak in body and bones, I just need to ask him once every three days."

Xi Gonggong said: "Your Highness is really considerate, it's just that these rules are indispensable."

Li Xuandu ordered Duofu: "Bring the virtuous servant here."

Duofu went, and Eunuch Xi left two teaching nuns here, one named Yan Nanny and the other Fang Nanny. After meeting Li Xuandu and the servants, Yan Nanny said: "Old I have been ordered by Your Majesty to teach the etiquette of Your Majesty the Empress and the servants. If the old servant has done anything wrong, please ask the Queen and the servants to take care of you. Don’t make things difficult for the old slave, after all, the old slave is also Acting according to orders, Your Majesty, if the servants can't learn this etiquette well, I can't help but the old slave can't explain it to His Majesty, and your Highness, the servants are also difficult to explain."

Li Xuandu clicked his tongue, his words sounded a bit threatening.

Li Xuandu had passed on the breakfast meal just now, and now it was being served one after another, and Madam Yan frowned as she looked at the dozen or so small tables in the dining room.

Li Xuandu looked at her and said: "Nurse Yan, it's boring for me to eat alone, so I asked the servants to accompany me to eat, it's not in accordance with the rules."

"Where is it?" Yan Yan's face showed no expression, "It is a blessing for servants to be invited by His Highness to have a meal."

Li Xuandu glanced at her a few times, but didn't speak again.

Not long after, Yang Huaixu finally came, and Duo Fu had already told the news about the rules on the way.

When everyone is here, Li Xuandu was about to say that he can eat, but Madam Yan took the lead and said: "Since the old servant has caught up, let's learn from eating."

Li Xuandu and the others sat down, and Mammy Yan glanced over their tables, then her eyes suddenly fell on Wuxi's dining table, and she walked over with a cold face: "Why is the breakfast of De Shijun different from that of other servants?" Are you different?"

Wu Qi had never seen this kind of formation before, and was a little scared. Just as he was about to explain, he heard Li Xuandu say: "It was arranged by my palace. The Lord of Virtue is from the Southwest, and the eating habits of the people in the Southwest are quite different from those in our imperial city. You are not used to food from our imperial city, so I ordered the imperial dining room to cook some southwestern delicacies for De Shijun."

"Your Highness, this is not in compliance with the rules," Yan Yan said with a straight face, "Since De Shijun enters the palace, he is His Majesty's man, and he has nothing to do with the Southwest. Since he is His Majesty's man, he should follow His Majesty's habits." act."

"It's nothing more than a matter of personal taste, it's not that serious," Li Xuandu looked at her, "Just like this bowl of porridge, some people like the sweet one, and some people like the salty one, so what does it matter? What's more, the servants must eat according to their own tastes at home. The servants are the emperor's people, and they must be nobler than those famous sons. In this way, the food eaten by the servants is inferior to the princes. Isn't it true? Slap His Majesty in the face?"

"This..." Sister Yan had nothing to say.

Wu Qi quietly gave Li Xuandu a thumbs up, and Li Xuandu winked at him.

"Okay, ma'am," Li Xuandu said, "it's time to eat, it's going to be cold."

Sister Yan didn't say anything, picked up a pair of empty bowls and chopsticks, and began to teach etiquette.All of you here are sons of aristocratic families who have learned etiquette since childhood, so dining etiquette is not difficult for them.

After the etiquette, you can finally eat.

A discordant voice sounded, and Mammy Yan swept her eyes around again, and finally settled on Shang Lanqiu precisely: "Mr. Chen, the old slave just said that you should eat small bites when you eat. No sound can be made between the dishes and chopsticks, let alone when eating. Your voice is so loud that I can hear it even standing here."

Shang Lanqiu frowned, and was about to speak when Nangong Yuexi, who was sitting next to him, quickly waved at him.Fang Fang held back his breath, and he ate more slowly.

The meal made Li Xuandu quite uncomfortable, the feeling of being stared at was really uncomfortable.

After breakfast, Nanny Yan asked them to follow her outside.

Li Xuandu crossed his arms: "Nurse Yan, it's too cold outside, what rules can we not learn inside? We have to learn outside."

Mother Yan said: "Learning outside is naturally different from learning inside. Nobles, just bear with it and learn all the rules."

Li Xuandu gritted his teeth and said nothing. The 13 people lined up, with Li Xuandu at the top.

"The next step is to learn to 'walk'. How to walk represents the identity and status of the nobles, and it also represents the face of your majesty," Yan Yan said, "This old slave will demonstrate to the nobles first. "

Sister Yan said, she walked forward for a certain distance, then turned around and walked slowly: "First of all, the steps should not be too big or too heavy, they must be light and slow, and the posture must be graceful and graceful. , swaying with the wind. You can’t look ahead, you have to lower your head slightly, and your chest can’t stand up, you have to hold it slightly.”

Nurse Yan was walking towards this side while she was talking, Li Xuandu quickly stopped her: "Stop, stop, Nurse Yan, although I don't know the rules in the palace, I also know that your teaching is wrong."

Sister Yan still had no expression on her face: "Your Highness, this old servant has been teaching this set of rules for decades, and there is not a single one that is wrong."

"Look, it's like this." Li Xuandu came out from the team, "You said you can't look ahead, keep your chest in your mouth, and don't walk too fast. This is obviously a way to teach women etiquette, we are all men, How can I teach it with the etiquette of a woman?"

Sister Yan said sternly: "The nobles are all His Majesty's people, and all His Majesty's people have learned these etiquettes, why is there any mistake?"

Li Xuandu insisted on confronting her to the end: "Then tell me, is what you just taught women's etiquette?"

Sister Yan could only answer: "Yes."

Li Xuandu smiled slightly: "Your Majesty's women are called concubines, but we are not called concubines now. The title 'Servant Lord' is bestowed by His Majesty, which is enough to say that we are still men in His Majesty's eyes. Since His Majesty regards us as men , the mother still taught us the etiquette of a woman, wouldn't it be a failure to resist the order?"

Sister Yan's face finally darkened a bit: "This..."

Because Li Xuandu helped him, Wu Qi also helped him to speak: "Your Highness's words are reasonable, and the mother taught us the etiquette of women, wouldn't she treat us as women?"

In the distance, two people stood behind the overlapping trees.Long Yan still wore the silver mask: "Who is this person?"

Eunuch Xi explained: "This is De Shijun, who was originally the younger brother of the Southwest King. He is 16 years old this year, and he is the youngest among the servants."

Long Yan said: "Record it in the account."

Eunuch Xi asked: "Will it be recorded on the black account or the red account?"

Long Yan pondered for a moment: "On the black account."

After about a cup of tea, Long Yan's eyes were fixed on Li Xuandu: "Why can't I keep coming to see him? I've never felt this way before, it's so troublesome, I obviously don't want to pay attention to him, but I can't help but look at it. Why don't you kill him, and if you kill him, no one will give me this feeling again."

Eunuch Xi asked: "Then what does His Majesty mean?"

Long Yan was silent for a long time this time: "Leave him for a few more days and see what unexpected things he can do."
