Chapter 88: The first confrontation between mother-in-law and daughter-in-law
Lu Nianwei gave Shanpu a warning and let him live in a simple inn. On the one hand, in order to avenge his revenge on the day, and on the other hand, he was showing kindness to Dazhou.
It won't take long before she became a native of the Great Zhou Dynasty, so she naturally had to consider her husband in everything.
The next day, Shanpu led his men to complete the marriage process at the Ministry of Rites. According to regulations, he had to leave Changdan City after the wedding of Zhao Yan and Lu Nianwei.
So he had to take the mission to stay in the broken inn.
He is rich and very rich, so he can find a luxurious inn.
But, he dared not.
Living in this inn, the people of Dazhou could at least not cause trouble for Lu Nianwei.
If you live somewhere else, the people of Dazhou will have many ideas, so how can you deal with him?
And if something happened to him here, Ergu would not or dare not attack the Great Zhou at all.
His current status in Ergu's heart is far inferior to that of his past.
And at this moment, in Wanbaolou.
Lu Nianwei was wearing a long lavender-colored gold dress, her long black and flowing hair was combed into a Ruyi bun, and a plum blossom jade hairpin was inserted on it.
Her fair face was also wiped with a faint red pink.
The whole person is like a peerless fairy who is beyond words, and is indescribable.
The reason why she dressed so grandly was because Empress Dowager Zhang in the harem wanted to summon her.
According to convention, the one who married the princess should be the empress dowager or queen of the Great Zhou.
However, what Lu Nianwei didn't know was that Zhao Yan didn't know about this.
Soon, Lu Nianwei was taken into the Great Zhou Palace by a carriage, and the carriage was parked directly at the door of Ciyuan Palace. Before Lu Nianwei could see the surrounding environment, she was invited by two palace maids.
Empress Dowager Zhang was afraid of heat, so there were a large amount of ice cubes in the hall.
If you don't wear some thicker clothes inside, it will soon become a little cold.
Lu Nianwei walked into the hall, and there was no Empress Dowager Zhang on the couch and seat in front of her.
The palace maid bowed to Lu Nianwei and said, "The Empress Dowager will come later, please wait a moment."
After saying that, the two palace maids walked out and closed the palace gate.
Lu Nianwei looked around curiously, not daring to walk around or sit on the chair in front of her.
She knew that the Great Zhou had many rules and etiquette, and she would spend a long time with the Queen Mother Zhang in the harem soon. In order to leave a good impression on her first meeting, she kept herself as beautiful as possible.
In a blink of an eye, a quarter of an hour passed, and Empress Dowager Zhang still did not come.
The hall became colder and colder. Lu Nianwei was practicing martial arts and his body was stronger than that of ordinary girls, and he felt a little cold.
And while standing, my legs were numb.
In a room not far from the main hall, Empress Dowager Zhang was lying on a couch, a palace maid rubbed her legs and a palace maid slapped her in the wind.
At this time, she was less than forty years old, and because of maintenance, she looked very young.
She raised her eyes slightly and asked at the palace maid who had just returned, "How long has that girl been standing?"
"Qi Bian, it's been a quarter of an hour!"
"Then...has she ever walked back and forth in the hall, or did she behave in any rude behavior?"
"I have been staring at her in the crack of the door. She is very quiet, standing there without moving."
Empress Dowager Zhang showed a satisfied smile and said to herself: "This is almost the same. It's time for the Ai family to see her. If it's frozen, Your Majesty will settle the score with me!"
After saying that, Empress Dowager Zhang slowly stood up.
Her behavior was not to make things difficult for Lu Nianwei.
This is an unwritten rule in the Great Zhou harem.
Any concubine the emperor married must withstand the cold eyes of the empress dowager, so as to warn them that they must understand the order of superiority and inferiority in the harem.
Squeak!
The palace gate slowly opened, and Empress Dowager Zhang followed the two palace maids and walked slowly towards the seat in front.
Lu Nianwei tidied up her long skirt slightly, then knelt on the ground and smiled and said, "Bei Meng Yabna greeted the Empress Dowager of the Great Zhou, and the Empress Dowager just call me Nianwei."
"Get up!" Empress Dowager Zhang said in a plain tone.
Lu Nianwei stood up gently and stood beside the side chair.
"Raise your head!"
Lu Nianwei immediately raised her head, she was quite confident about her appearance.
Before Zhao Yan appeared, she even thought it was difficult to find a man worthy of her in the world.
"I look pretty. The Ai family has heard about you and Your Majesty. Today, the Ai family summoned you to tell you the rules so that they would not make me laugh and lose my face in the Great Zhou royal family."
"Although you are the princess of Northern Meng, when you come to Dazhou, you are just a concubine of Your Majesty. As for whether you can become a queen in the future, it depends on your luck. I, Dazhou's harem, have many rules, and you must understand clearly so as not to disturb the rules of the harem."
"There are two points that you must remember, first, the harem must not interfere in politics; second, you must not let His Majesty abandon the government because of you, do you understand?" Empress Dowager Zhang said in a raised voice.
"Nianwei understands." Lu Nianwei bent slightly and nodded.
Empress Dowager Zhang looked at the palace maid next to her, and the latter immediately understood and carried out more than a dozen books from behind, and then placed them on the table next to Lu Nianwei.
Lu Nianwei looked down and saw that these books include "The Women's Commandments", "Inner Training", "The Female Fan Jie Record", "The Palace Etiquette Record", etc.
Basically, they are books about the Three Obediences and Four Virtues and Female Etiquette. Usually, Lu Nianwei had a headache when she saw these books.
Empress Dowager Zhang said, "You must recite these books, and you cannot leave a word or a word. I will check it soon. You can take them home today!"
"Nianwei obeys the order." Lu Nianwei continued to say in a gentle tone.
In fact, the little volcano in her heart is about to erupt. No one in the world can make her live such a lady except Empress Dowager Zhang, including Zhao Yan.
Lu Nianwei thought that Empress Dowager Zhang’s lecture was over.
I never thought it was just the beginning.
Next, Empress Dowager Zhang began to talk a lot,
From virtue, self-cultivation, chastity, mother-in-law to words, deeds, every frown and smile.
Lu Nianwei stood up so hard that her legs were numb, but Empress Dowager Zhang was talking more and more vigorously, and she didn't say anything about letting her sit down.
Soon, it was noon.
Lu Nianwei was cold, tired and hungry. Looking at Empress Dowager Zhang's endless excitement, she was helpless and wanted to pretend to nod.
"Guru! Guru!"
Soon, Lu Nianwei's stomach rang out in a bad mood.
Empress Dowager Zhang frowned slightly and said, "In the hall, your stomach makes such a sound, which is contrary to the etiquette of the harem. This will definitely not be so ugly in the future."
After saying that, Empress Dowager Zhang pointed to the snacks and tea on the table next to her and said, "You eat some first and keep your stomach up!"
"Thank you, the Queen Mother!"
Lu Nianwei was immediately overjoyed, and quickly sat on the chair and started to eat.
But she had just eaten a few bites.
There was only a "bang" sound.
Empress Dowager Zhang slammed the table and said with a pale face: "Just now, did you remember any of the etiquettes taught by Ai's family? You can't eat, bite, or drink, what did you do?"
