Chapter 68 The Rules

"Old lady, the prince is indeed sleeping in the courtyard of the palace tonight." Nanny Yu said respectfully, "The servants outside said that the princess...seems quite excited."

"Shameless!" Mrs. Qin's face turned blue with anger, "You heard the cry, it's really from a small family, with no education at all."

Seeing what Mrs. Qin said, a flash of struggle suddenly flashed in Mammy Yu's eyes.

"Old madam, don't worry, the prince is probably just acting on a whim, so he can't take it seriously."

Mrs. Qin snorted coldly: "What if it's not?"

Nanny Yu was at a loss for words for a while, so she could only comfort her repeatedly.

On the second day, Ye Qingling woke up in a daze until the sun was high.

Looking at the sun outside, she was a little speechless: "Cattail, why didn't you call me?" It must be almost noon now, although there is no one in the palace to take care of her, but it is not good after all.

"Princess, you were tired last night, you should have a good rest today." Cattail covered her mouth and smiled, "The kitchen brought red eggs."

Red eggs?
Ye Qingling was taken aback for a moment, then came to her senses.

She said angrily: "What nonsense, my lord and I just..."

"Hey, hey!" Cattail quickly covered her ears, and shouted, "Princess, I'm still an unmarried girl, so don't tell me about the secrets between you and the prince."

After finishing speaking, she covered her ears and ran out quickly.

Ye Qing was so angry that she jumped down.

When she passed the bronze mirror, she caught a glimpse of herself in the mirror out of the corner of her eye, and was startled.

That person with a peach blossom face and red marks on his neck is really me?
"Ah! How can I go out to meet people?" Ye Qingling was speechless to the extreme.

She now feels that Qin Yufeng is just a dog.

The red mark on his neck was obviously a mark he left on purpose to warn other men to stay away from him.

I picked up the gauze tape to cover it a little bit, and barely blocked the mark.

But what Ye Qingling didn't know was that the gauze was called distant mountain fog, which could not be seen clearly when it was close, but could be seen clearly when it was a little farther away.

The servants and maids I met on the road were all stunned, shocked by the boldness of the princess and prince.

Soon, the entire Yuwang Mansion was once again a sensation.

"Wow, did you see it? On the neck of the princess, tsk tsk, it's amazing."

"Who said our prince is an ice cube? It's obviously a big volcano."

"No wonder the prince ate two more buns than usual before leaving this morning."

The chattering was everywhere.

Gossip travels very fast.

When the news reached Mrs. Qin's ears, she was so angry that she smashed several vases.

"It's unseemly." She said with a grim expression, "I can't wait any longer. That little bitch seems to have some tricks to confuse men. I'm afraid that Feng'er will be bewitched by her. Maybe even my mother won't care about her in the future." in the eyes."

Nanny Yu sighed, and whispered a few words in the old lady's ear.

Old Madam Qin's eyes lit up suddenly, she nodded and said, "Okay, let's do it this way! This time I'll see how proud that bitch Ye Qingling is."

……

Ye Qingling had no idea that she had become a thorn in Madam Qin's side.

Qin Yufeng's mouth was very heavy, and she stayed in the palace for several days before the bruise on her neck subsided a little.

"Princess, the old lady called you over, saying that she has something to discuss."

Ok?
What can Mrs. Qin have to say to herself?

Ye Qingling pursed her lips, but after all, the other party was Yu Wang's mother, she was the daughter-in-law, and she had no reason to refuse, whether it was based on seniority or other reasons.

When they arrived at Mrs. Qin's courtyard, there was a huge battle.

The maids stood behind the old lady together, and some strong women stood in two rows in the hall.

"Old lady, I don't know why you called me here today?" Ye Qingling made a foolish salute, and didn't bother to be polite to her, and asked straight to the point.

A trace of anger flashed in Old Madam Qin's eyes.

"There is no respect for elders! You really don't know etiquette."

Ye Qingling smiled faintly: "The old madam knew before she let me marry into the palace that I came from a small family. It's not like I haven't done anything more rude. Why haven't you gotten used to it yet?"

Mrs. Qin slammed the table down, pointed at Ye Qingling and said, "How dare you talk poorly! Today I called you here to teach you etiquette. As a princess, you should look like a princess! Otherwise, go out It’s just plain ridiculous.”

Ye Qingling was taken aback. Isn't this plot the "rules" that are common in costume dramas?

Usually on the surface it is teaching etiquette or something, but in fact it is secretly torturing people.

"Sorry, my lord didn't let me learn." Ye Qingling turned around and wanted to leave.

Unexpectedly, those two rows of women blocked her way like a mountain.

Seeing their extremely unfriendly expressions, Ye Qingling's heart sank.

It seems that today is not easy to get away.

Forget it, just adapt to the circumstances and see what tricks this old hag can play.

"The first step is to serve tea." Mrs. Qin pointed to the tea beside her, "Learn how to serve tea from the little maids."

I will endure!

Ye Qingling resisted the urge to roll her eyes, followed the maid next to her, and learned a whole set of etiquette on how to serve tea to elders.

In fact, there were these things in the memory of the original owner, and Ye Qingling would be able to understand them after a while. For her, it was like pediatrics without any difficulty.

"It's too hot!" Mrs. Qin took a sip of the tea she brought, and threw the cup on the ground, "Do it again."

If you do it all over again, you won't be tired anyway, and you don't have to pay for the wasted tea.

Ye Qing Lingquan exercised his patience and drank another cup.

"It's too cold! Come again!"

"It's neither hot nor cold, how do you drink it, come again!"

Just like that, Ye Qingling brewed more than twenty cups of tea, and finally managed to pass the test.

She looked at the broken cups all over the floor, a little speechless.

I thought to myself: "That's it? That's it?"

This level of making things difficult is simply not enough. Do you really think that throwing a few cups can scare her?
"Salute." Yuma took a step forward and explained, "Princess, please follow me to learn how to salute."

Here we go, the main event is finally here.

This salute is very particular, and the salutes to be performed on different days are very different for different people. The original owner does not have much experience and rarely interacts with outsiders, so his memory is lacking in this area, which has also become Ye Qingling's problem. Knowledge blind spots.

"Please be careful, I will only teach you once." Madam Yu said, "If you make a mistake, you will be taught by the old lady."

Ye Qingling immediately lifted her spirits.

She finally understood Mrs. Qin's plan.

Isn't this just finding an aboveboard reason to toss yourself?

Hehe, who is afraid of whom?

Ye Qingling focused on watching Madam Yu's demonstration. I'm afraid Mrs. Qin didn't know that her memory had always been good, and she could remember many things firmly just by watching them once.
