Concubine Xian was stunned there and didn’t react for a long time. Did she hear it right just now?
Ji Ruyan actually said that she should salute her?
Ji Ruyan saw the astonishment on Concubine Xian's face and curled her lips, "Concubine Xian, I'm talking about you, you haven't saluted me yet."
Director An became anxious and knelt on the ground, wanting to protect the Lord, "Seventh Princess, the Concubine Xian is older than you, so you should be the one to salute her."
Ji Ruyan glanced at Master An, "When the master is talking, is there a slave like you who can interrupt? Master An, logically speaking, you are a member of the Master of Ceremonies Bureau. When it comes to palace rules, you should be more knowledgeable than anyone else."
Clear! Are you sure you really want to die?"
One sentence made Master An choked and speechless.
The Concubine Xian smiled and said, "Seventh Concubine, do you know that I am the Emperor's concubine?"
Very good!
What I want is your words.
Ji Ruyan smiled slightly, "Of course I know this, but the rank of the Concubine Xian is from the second rank. And this imperial concubine is the first rank. If we compare ranks, shouldn't you be the first to salute me?"
Concubine Xian was stunned. She was sure she had forgotten about it.
Because Ji Ruyan was given the title of a first-class imperial concubine by Emperor Xuan!
Moreover, Emperor Xuan gave her the treatment of not kneeling before the Emperor!
Since Ji Ruyan can even see the emperor without kneeling, how could she possibly kneel to herself, a concubine?
Concubine Xian glanced at her maid Mulan, who immediately understood, "My maid Mulan would like to send my regards to the Seventh Imperial Concubine. May the Seventh Imperial Concubine be blessed with good fortune."
"Get up."
Ji Ruyan then relented and let Master An and Mulan stand up.
After the two of them stood still, Ji Ruyan's eyes fell on Master An, "Tell me, what kind of palace rules do you want me to learn by asking me to come here?"
"Tea."
Master An took a deep breath and explained the lessons he had learned.
Of course, this tea ceremony was also ordered by Concubine Xian.
Although she felt that Ji Ruyan, the Seventh Imperial Concubine, was not easy to mess with, she had to obey Concubine Xian's instructions and had no choice but to bite the bullet.
"Would you like to offer tea?"
Ji Ruyan smiled coldly, she was not a fool.
How could you not see that the reason why she was asked to learn how to serve tea was because she wanted her to serve tea to the Concubine Xian!
But, how could she serve tea obediently?
"Yes, the Seventh Princess."
Master An responded softly from the side.
"Then go prepare tea."
Ji Ruyan agreed very cooperatively and asked An Siyi to prepare tea.
When the tea was ready, Ji Ruyan stood there without saying a word.
Master An held the tea and explained, "When the Seventh Princess serves tea to the elders, she needs to raise the teacup to the height of her chest with both hands, and then lean forward a little to serve the tea. When serving the tea, you need to
Use the honorific title. If the Seventh Imperial Concubine serves tea to the Xian Concubine, she needs to say 'Please give tea to the Xian Concubine.'"
A good mother and concubine?
Ji Ruyan sneered and glanced at Concubine Xian who was sitting there.
She underestimated the face of the Concubine Xian.
I didn’t expect that I could be so shameless!
Dare you be in the emcee bureau today, just because you want her to be called the virtuous concubine and the virtuous mother concubine?
"Seventh Princess, do you need me to say it again?"
Master An asked stiffly.
Ji Ruyan shook her head, "No, you taught me very clearly."
"Then please ask the Seventh Princess to serve tea to the elders once, so that the slaves can correct you at any time."
