Chapter 53: Ritual

Ning family, the main house, the guests are full. Today, there are many people coming. Almost all the well-known people in Chen County have come. The magistrate Tang Renjing, the commander Sun Fu, and the head of the Lin family Lin Huaiyuan..... They sit in two rows in the guest positions on both sides. The seat arrangement of guests is also given to the details.

They are all based on the status of their seats, and everyone is required to sit in that position. This is an invisible thing, but it doesn’t need to be arranged by Ning Caichen!

Ji Yuan sat in the main seat of the high hall, Ning Caichen stood beside him, waiting for the ceremony to start. According to the ceremony process, the person who added the title was bathed, the person who praised the title helped to comb his hair, change his clothes and shoes, and then sat in the east room (changing room) to wait;

During the Autumn and Warring States Period, rituals and music began to collapse. Although Qin Shihuang unified the six kingdoms, he advocated martial style and was not valued. He then experienced wars and many rituals and music were abandoned. Unlike before, etiquette must be meticulous and every flaw must be paid attention to.

Many things have become simple and simple, as long as they are generally like this!

Ji Yuan sat in the main seat, not smiling, very serious, and did not speak. Ning Caichen naturally could not speak. Instead, the guests below heard a sincere exchange. After a glance, Ning Caichen didn't know much, such as Li's family lives in Li Sheng and He Quan, the head of the He family.

These are all big families in Chen County, but he doesn’t know them. Most of them came here today for the sake of the face of his teacher Ji Yuan. Of course, there is also the intention of making friends with him. After all, he now understands literary spirit and is no longer the poor scholar in the past!

After about ten minutes, an emcee took a scarf and walked up to the front desk.

"It's going to start!" "It's starting!"

Seeing this scene, the guests in the audience also quieted down. Ning Caichen walked to the emcee at the front desk a few steps and knelt on the mat that had been prepared before-

"On the auspicious day of the month, you will be given up on the dollar. You will abandon your young ambitions and achieve your virtues. You will be happy and live a long life, and you will be lucky."

The emcee shouted, and Ji Yuan also got up from the seat and took the scarf from the emcee’s hand!

The crown ceremony is summed up as three plus three prayers, according to the original crown ceremony process-

OnePlus: The crown turns to the east and sits; a steward presents a scarf, the front guest takes it, holds the back with his right hand and the front with his left hand, and walks to the front with his crown; chants loudly and says, "Let the auspicious day of the month begin to add the Yuan Dynasty. Abandon your young ambitions, and you will achieve virtue. You will have a long life and a happy life, and you will have a good fortune.

"Then knelt down (with the mat on the knees) and put on the scarf for the crown, then stood up and returned to the original position. The praise comes over to the crown, and the crown stands up and bows to the crown. The crown returns to the east room, the praise takes out the clothes to assist, and goes to the room to change the clothes with a large belt that matches the head.

Clothes;

One bow: the person who is crowned wears a large deep clothes and wears a large scarf and shows it to the guests. Then he will give a formal worship ceremony to his parents;

Two pluses: That is, the crown sits facing east; the front guest washes his hands and then resets; a servant brings a hat, the front guest takes it, and walks to the front guest; chants loudly and says, "The auspicious month is the Chen, and Shen'er is in charge. He respects the dignity, and is virtuous, and has a long life, and he will be blessed forever."

Remove the scarf for the crown. The right guest kneels down, wears a hat for the crown, and then gets up and resets. The praise helps the crown and straighten the hat. The guest bows to the crown. The crown returns to the east room, the praise takes out the clothes to assist, and goes to the room to change the clothes that match the hat on the head and the belt.

Second worship: the person who is crowned wears a shirt and a belt and hat to leave the room, displays it to the guests, and then performs a formal worship ceremony to the guests;

Three pluses: The crown sits facing east; the front guest washes hands and then resets; a steward presents the head, the front guest takes it, and walks to the front guest; chants loudly and says, "With the year's order, the moon's order, all of them will be given. Brothers are there to achieve virtue. The yellow trunk has no boundaries, and they will be accepted by the sky.

"The praise person takes off the hat for the crown. The straight guest kneels down, holds a head for the crown, and then gets up and resets. The praise person helps the crown to straighten the head. The guest bows to the crown. The crown returns to the east room, the praise person takes clothes to assist, and goes to the room to change the public uniform that matches the head on the head;

Three bows: the crowned person wears a public uniform, and after leaving the room, he will show it to the guests. Then he will give a formal bow to all the guests. Then he will hold a ceremony to serve as an adult wine, and he will be officially an adult.

However, to this day, three plus three worships are just a general process, not as detailed as before. Now, almost the elders wear scarfs for the crowned ones, and it will be almost done after the elders’ etiquette. Moreover, Ning Caichen’s parents will not be able to complete the ceremony of even one worship!

"Wear this scarf and become an adult in the future. You must think about everything and be active. Remember to be impatient and aggressive. I will give you the word "advance" for you. This is the intention of being enterprising, but be cautious about being arrogant and impetuous!"

Ji Yuan wore a scarf for Ning Caichen, reminding him!

"The teacher is concerned, and students must remember it!" Ning Caichen bowed and said!

Wearing a scarf, Ning Caichen bowed to Ji Yuan, and then greeted the guests. Although the coming-of-age ceremony has been reduced in many places, for Ning Caichen, it is still very complicated and more troublesome than getting married in his previous life. This is a full half of the time.

More than hours.........

After the ceremony was completed, the banquet was set up in the inner courtyard to entertain guests, and Ning Caichen sat next to Ji Yuan!

"Mr. Boyuan, Lin is a glass to you. Thank you for your life-saving kindness a few days ago!" In the guest's seat, Lin Huaiyuan stood up and toasted Ji Yuan. Boyuan was Ji Yuan's name!

"Mr. Lin is polite!"

Ji Yuan smiled, raised his wine glass and touched Lin Huaiyuan in the air for a moment!

"When you come in, you are all distinguished guests. You should also pay a cup of respect to you!" Sitting down, Ji Yuan said to Ning Caichen again. His voice was not loud, nor was it small. Everyone present could hear it clearly and looked at this side!

Ning Caichen smiled when he heard this, poured himself a glass of wine and stood up-

"Today, Caichen won the championship. Thank you for your support. This cup will be drunk by Caichen. Please don't be surprised if you are negligent!"

As he said that, he drank the wine in his hand and poured himself a glass of it-

"Isn't it a pleasure to have friends here? This cup is my respect for you!"

Ning Caichen raised his glass in the void, his manners were elegant and his words were polite, which made everyone present happy. Even Sun Fu, a poor general, raised his glass of wine in his hand with a rare smile on his face.

"Young Master Ning is polite!" "Drinking together!" "Drinking together!"

The guests were having fun and drank a glass together. Ji Yuan looked at this scene with satisfaction. Ning Caichen's performance made him very satisfied. With a glass of wine, the atmosphere on the scene became lively, and toasts were endless. Someone toasted Ning Caichen Ji Yuan, but Ji Yuan did not respond because he

His identity is here, and no one is worthy of Ji Yuan's toast, but Ning Caichen wants to get up. He also wants to give back the toast to others. He is not as tall as Ji Yuan!

In Lin Huaiyuan's seat, Lin Xuelian kept lowering her head, and there was a blush on her beautiful face. She just peeked at Ning Caichen from time to time. Gan Yuying also looked at Ning Caichen, and suddenly felt a feeling of not being at the right time!

"What are you doing? You can't get in!"

"Go away, you dare to stop us if you are anything!"

....................................................

At this moment, a noise came from outside the door, and then a young man in white walked in with a servant in black, and Fu'an and Futai who were catching up with him!
