Chapter 47 The lady said she was waiting for someone to put it on her
In the Yangxin Palace, Xiao Mo took a deep breath and slowly opened his eyes.
Xiao Mo has memorized all the formulas of the Caozi Sword Technique.
During this period of time, in addition to experiencing life in the Book of Hundred Worlds, Xiao Mo would often break away from the Book of Hundred Worlds to recite sword techniques.
Although the grass-word sword intent in Xiao Mo's body contains the sword formula, he can read it at any time as long as he thinks about it.
However, only by memorizing the sword technique completely and imprinting it in your soul without missing a word, can you practice the Caozi sword technique.
"His Majesty."
Wei Xun's voice came from outside the door.
"Come in." Xiao Mo said.
Wei Xun walked into the bedroom and bowed to Xiao Mo: "Your Majesty, I have already done what you told me to do. To the north of Xianxin Palace, there is a relatively remote open space, surrounded by walls on all sides and a mountain gate with a closed gate. Few people pass by, and it is very quiet.
"I have already had an altar set up. I have prepared talisman paper, cinnabar, the Eight Diagrams, the Yin-Yang diagram, a peach wood sword, and other Taoist items. Everything is ready. Your Majesty, would you like to take a look?"
"Go." Xiao Mo nodded.
"Yes, Your Majesty."
Wei Xun quickly stepped back and prepared a carriage for His Majesty.
More than half an hour later, Xiao Mo arrived at a square north of Xianxin Palace.
Just as Wei Xun said.
This square is surrounded by walls on all sides, and to enter it, you need to open a big door.
The square is about the size of a football field.
This place is really nice, located in the corner of the imperial capital.
Next to it is Xianxin Palace.
Xianxin Palace is actually the cold palace.
After the death of the previous emperor, all the concubines in Xianxin Palace were taken to be buried with him in the imperial mausoleum, but Xiao Mo had not yet taken a concubine, not even a concubine who was banished to the cold palace.
So now the Xianxin Palace is empty.
In addition, Xianxin Palace has always been a place where concubines often hang themselves, and there are all kinds of terrifying rumors about it, so eunuchs and palace maids all stay away from this place.
Even the open space around Xianxin Palace was no longer passed by.
"Your Majesty, are you satisfied with this place?" Wei Xun asked flatteringly.
"Yes." Xiao Mo nodded, "I am very satisfied."
"From today on, I will practice Taoism here. No one is allowed to enter this place without my permission. Do you understand?" Xiao Mo said coldly.
"I understand."
Xiao Mo waved his hand and said, "Go wait outside the door."
"Yes, Your Majesty."
Wei Xun bowed, walked out of the square, and ordered someone to close the door.
"Clang."
The door is closed.
Xiao Mo picked up a peach wood sword from the shelf and began to practice the first move of the Caozi Sword Technique.
When a cultivator first begins practicing, the most important thing is to draw spiritual energy into the body, thereby opening up the spiritual meridians and entering the first level of Qi training.
A cultivator with extraordinary talent can reach the first level of Qi training in just one hour.
It takes one to three days for ordinary cultivators to enter the Qi realm.
For those with lower qualifications, it usually only takes one month.
The reason why Jiang Qingyi spent several months without entering the first level of Qi training was because of the missing sword bone.
She was born with a bone missing, which made her deficient and unable to absorb spiritual energy into her body normally.
But after Xiao Mo created a fake bone for her.
Even if this bone is not a sword bone, it makes up for her congenital deficiency.
After that, her cultivation speed was extremely fast, and she could be said to be making great progress every day.
Xiao Mo felt that although his bones were not the best, they could be considered average.
"I will strive to embark on the path of cultivation within two days."
At the same time, at the residence of the Minister of Rites.
Huang Shangyi, the old maid from the palace, opened her mouth and shouted to the woman in front of her: "Okay."
The woman walked forward with light and steady steps, her strides small and slow, just as the saying goes "lotus steps lightly moving". She walked with her body straight and her eyes not looking to the side.
"stand."
Following Huang Shangyi's call, the woman stopped, her posture straight, her chin slightly lowered, her hands folded in front of her, right hand on top, left hand on the bottom. She had a dignified and quiet temperament, standing there like an exquisite sculpture, without any shaking.
"Sit down." Huang Shangyi called again.
The woman sits on the chair next to her, with her buttocks only on the front half of the chair, her back straight, her legs together and placed diagonally, her feet together or slightly tucked under her skirt, and her hands naturally folded on her legs.
Looking at the woman in front of him, Huang Shangyi nodded, very satisfied.
Huang Shangyi was instructed by the Queen Mother to come and train the most talented woman in the Zhou Kingdom in court etiquette.
Huang Shangyi was originally a little worried.
Because this talented woman will enter the palace in a few days, the time she spends learning etiquette is not long.
But Huang Shangyi found that her worries were unnecessary.
It can only be said that the Yan family is worthy of being a prominent family. They usually teach girls court etiquette to prepare them for entering the palace.
Now I just need to correct her a little.
Most importantly, every move she made exuded a sense of majesty.
I heard that someone in the court advised that Yan Ruxue was not fit to be the empress of the Zhou Dynasty.
But if a woman like this cannot be the queen, who else can be the queen?
"What are the facial expressions rules in the palace?" Huang Shangyi asked.
"You need to remain gentle and calm, and not show your emotions on your face. You need to remain dignified and reserved at all times. You cannot laugh loudly, make noises, cry uncontrollably, or look angry." Yan Ruxue replied.
"How's the look?"
"You need to lower your eyes or look straight ahead. You cannot look around, sideways, or look directly at the emperor or empress dowager. When talking, you need to maintain a respectful posture with your eyes downcast." Yan Ruxue answered again.
"Yes." Huang Shangyi nodded. "Miss, you won't have any problems with court etiquette, but you need to practice more and integrate court etiquette into your life unconsciously."
"Thank you for your hard work, Huang Shangyi. Please have a cup of tea before you leave." Yan Ruxue nodded and instructed the maid beside her, "Serve Huang Shangyi some tea."
"Thank you, Miss." Huang Shangyi was indeed a little thirsty.
The old palace maid was sitting on a stone bench drinking cold tea. When she looked up, she saw the talented lady Yan sitting next to her, holding a piece of silk and gently wiping a gold ring.
Ever since she came to the Yan Mansion, she would see this woman taking out the golden ring and wiping it every day.
The brocade box containing the ring was a little rotten.
After drinking tea, Huang Shangyi walked out of Yan's house accompanied by Yan Ruxue's personal maid.
"Miss Xiaochun, is there anything special about the young lady's ring?" Huang Shangyi asked curiously.
"I don't know." Xiaochun shook her head. "The young lady polishes the ring gently every day, and the brocade box hasn't been replaced for so many years. I once asked the young lady what's so special about this ring."
"What did the young lady say?"
"The lady said she was waiting for someone to put it on her."
