Chapter 211 Nanny Teaches Charlotte Court Etiquette

Xia Luo realized that it was impossible to wait for Situ Jin to come in within a day or two.

I guess the father and son are hiding this from everyone.

The fact that the emperor didn't even tell her shows that he takes it very seriously.

Situ Jin knew that Xia Luo was waiting for him in the space.

But with the secret guards always by his side, he had no chance to enter the space and meet Charlotte.

His mind was filled with images of Charlotte blaming him.

In order to return home and marry Charlotte sooner, he had better endure not meeting her for the time being.

In fact, Situ Jin has many opportunities to enter the space.

But thinking of his father's instructions, he held back.

Just let Luo Luo be patient for a day or two.

I'll explain it to her when I get a chance to go in.

Xia Luo saw that Situ Jin had no intention of entering the space.

She knew he was in trouble.

Forget it, since the nanny is here, she should go and learn court etiquette.

Let’s try again when she enters the space at night.

Ancient emperors and their family members had to follow court etiquette and established customs in their court life.

Court etiquette involves royal sacrifices, banquets, audiences, weddings and funerals, etc.

The court etiquette of the Crown Princess is even more strict.

The court etiquette of the Crown Princess covers many aspects such as enthronement, wedding, daily life, worship and sacrifice, and diplomatic activities.

These etiquettes not only embody the dignity of the royal family, but also impose strict requirements on the behavior and conduct of the Crown Princess.

"This old servant pays respect to the Crown Princess!" When the Crown Princess left the room, the nanny came over to serve her immediately.

This nanny was none other than Nanny Qin who served Concubine Xi.

I haven't seen Nanny Qin for a long time. She looks very energetic now.

"It's Aunt Qin. Long time no see. How are you?"

"Thanks to the Crown Princess, my health is getting better day by day. Look, the Emperor has appointed me to teach the Crown Princess the court etiquette!"

"It is said that the palace maids teach strict court etiquette. I am so lucky today that I met the maid Qin."

Xia Luo smiled and sighed at Concubine Xi's good intentions.

"I will now explain to the Crown Princess what are the various etiquettes of the Crown Princess: The first is the canonization ceremony. The Crown Princess's canonization ceremony is held on the same day as the Emperor canonizes the Crown Prince. The Emperor will issue the canonization edict. The Crown Princess must wear a formal dress and kneel to receive the canonization edict."

"The Crown Princess needs to perform eight bows to the Emperor and Imperial Concubine Xi, and four bows to the other princesses, princesses, and county ladies."

"The second is the wedding ceremony. The Crown Princess is a noble person. At the wedding, the Crown Princess needs to wear a special dress and accept the respect of the groom, the Crown Prince, and all the guests. The Crown Princess needs to bow eight times to the Emperor and Concubine Xi, and bow four times to other princesses, county ladies, etc."

"The third type is daily etiquette. The Crown Princess must strictly follow daily etiquette in her palace life. Wear appropriate clothing. In terms of behavior, such as eating, standing up, and sitting down, this old servant will teach you all about it in a while."

"The fourth type is worship and sacrifice. The Crown Princess will be a member of the royal family in the future. She must participate in the sacrificial activities. During the sacrificial activities, the Crown Princess must wear formal clothes and worship the ancestral tablets together with the Crown Prince."

"The fifth type is diplomatic etiquette. The Crown Princess is the Crown Prince's legitimate wife. She also needs to assume certain diplomatic duties. If there are foreign guests visiting, the Crown Princess needs to accompany the Crown Prince to receive them and wear formal attire to show the royal dignity."

"Madam Qin, I can't remember what you said if you talk too much. Come and have some tea to moisten your throat."

Xia Luo listened to Nanny Qin talking about a lot of etiquette. She couldn't interrupt. She had to make the excuse that there were too many things to remember.

Shaoyao served tea to Xia Luo and Nanny Qin.

"The Crown Princess is very smart, and I only gave you a rough idea. According to the rules, the maids in the palace will teach you etiquette for more than half a month. I estimate that a week is enough for the Crown Princess. The rest of the time depends on your ability to respond. I believe that the Crown Princess will do a good job."

She is indeed a very popular maid in the palace. She speaks nicely and to the point.

It can be seen that Charlotte is a little irritated, so Nanny Qin shortened the time again and again.

"Madame Qin is so considerate. She knows that I am not good at this. But it is good to know something. Don't embarrass the prince when the time comes."

"I have seen the Crown Princess every time she enters the palace. Her clothes and character are outstanding. The Emperor and the Imperial Concubine just let me go through the motions. I hope the Crown Princess will forgive me!"

What that means is that this is a rule that must be followed, and it's just a formality to avoid criticism in the future.

"I know the intentions of the Emperor and the Imperial Concubine. Madam, don't worry. I will remember all the etiquette and won't embarrass you. Madam, how about this? After breakfast every day, we will start practicing for an hour. We will practice for an hour in the afternoon."

"The schedule is all up to the Crown Princess." Nanny Qin was a clear-headed person.

The Crown Princess will be the Queen in the future. It is possible that she can still serve them.

"Madam Qin, I have an unwelcome request. The girls will come back from Southeast Asia next month to attend my wedding ceremony. Can you invite Madam to come to the farm again to teach the girls some etiquette? I will double the money given by the palace."

The maids who came out of the palace to teach etiquette would earn extra income.

So Charlotte knew the rule.

"You are joking, Princess. How dare I ask for your money? The Imperial Concubine has given it to me when we came out. You are too polite. If you need me, I will do my best. Your life was given to me by you. Please forgive me."

"It's agreed that they will inform Madam when they come back. Fuling, please remember it for me. I will be busy by then and I'm afraid I will forget it."

"Yes. Crown Princess." Fuling leaned forward and bowed.

"That's all for today. Shiso, Chrysanthemum, go get some milk tea for Nanny Qin. It'll be lunchtime soon after a short rest. Peony, remember to make some delicious meals for Nanny Qin."

Xia Luo hurried to the space to see where Situ Jin was.

Nanny Qin bowed and left. The guards who were supposed to cook went to cook.

Those who should accompany Nanny Qin should go and accompany Nanny Qin.

Charlotte was left alone.

She felt that the air in the space was fresher than the air outside.

She entered the space and found Situ Jin and the secret guards resting in the inn.

It is possible that Situ Jin has been to this space and can also see Charlotte learning etiquette.

They missed the time to meet.

Charlotte wrote a few words and placed them on the sofa table.

"We are so close, yet we cannot see each other. We love each other so much, when will we meet again?"

She took two steps, then turned back and used her mind to send the note into Situ Jin's hand.

Situ Jin was confirming the shortcut with the secret guards.

Suddenly, there was a piece of paper in his hand. He was afraid that the secret guards would be alerted, so he held the paper tightly.

Then he made an excuse to go to the toilet, opened the note and smiled.

I haven't seen this young wife for two days. She misses him.

He didn't see her when he entered the space just now, and he didn't even think of writing her a note to explain.

I'll leave a little later and write a letter to express my feelings.

Xia Luo saw Situ Jin enter the toilet.

It is impossible for her to watch people go to the toilet. This is politeness and respect.

She lay on the big bed waiting for his reply. Maybe she didn't sleep well that night, and she fell asleep not long after lying down.

Situ Jin asked the secret guards to guard outside the door while he wrote furiously.

"Lolo, my dearest wife. This time, my father gave me a difficult task, asking me to go to the bitter cold land to comfort the exiled court officials. I don't understand why my father asked me to go before the wedding. And he even kept it a secret from you. Eunuch De is no exception."
