Since the tenth day of the October 10th, Xu Ping no longer went to court, but only occasionally went to the Sansi to handle some affairs. At other times, he went to Taichang Liyuan to practice the etiquette of the prisoner offering ceremony.

These ceremonies and the like will be lost every time the dynasty changes, and some of them will be added. In fact, no one can explain clearly what is right and what is wrong. In this era, it all depends on the Taichang Liyuan citing scriptures and doing what they say.

The four magistrates of Taichang Liyuan were all carrying other ministries, and there was only one rotating every day. However, now facing the ceremony of prisoner offerings, there is no precedent to follow except for the first time in the country. However, the etiquette at the beginning of the country was not prepared, and now it has been established for decades, of course, it cannot be so careless. The magistrates of Taichang Liyuan are like Xu Ping, who are focused on preparing except for other ministries.

Four wise mentors arrived in the team from Yongzhou to teach them etiquette. The remaining two stayed in the capital to guide various departments and departments to prepare various ceremonies, and one came to guide Xu Ping specifically.

As the person who led the troops to break through Shenglong Mansion, Xu Ping was naturally the top priority at the ceremony. He was paying attention to everyone and could not make any mistakes in every move. Every day, Xu Ping rushed to the Liyuan.

The person who guided Xu Ping's etiquette was Zheng Jian, a Jinshi in the second year of Tiansheng, and the third place in the first class. He returned to the court from the position of the Tongzong of Yuezhou. He was summoned to the Bachelor's College for the examination and was appointed as the Jixian School Manager, and Tongzhi Taichang Liyuan.

The sun in winter should be warm and it feels comfortable to shine on your body, but when Xu Ping stood under the sun for almost an hour and was still motionless, he felt itchy all over. The sun shining on his body, like countless small insects crawling out from inside and out, how difficult it is to be.

Zheng Jian stood aside, accompanied Xu Ping, and guided Xu Ping in detail his every move. His face was serious, as if he was doing something very saint.

Xu Ping really couldn't feel Zheng Jian's sense of sacredness, but just forced himself to endure it.

Zheng Jian is a very rude person. He must do what he believes in his heart. In his heart, he breaks through Shenglong Mansion, which is one of the greatest martial arts masters since the founding of the country. The ceremony is extremely sacred and no mistake can be made.

If Xu Ping was not a human being for two lives, he might be able to understand Zheng Jian’s mood. It was like the soldiers who participated in the military parade in his previous life. It might be like this in his life. But with memories of his previous life, it was difficult for Xu Ping to be serious.

When Xu Ping felt that his whole body seemed to be not his own and his mind began to blur, Zheng Jian said, "Si Feng, it's almost time, let's take a break."

Xu Ping breathed out, looked at the seat next to him, and wanted to go over and sit down, but he couldn't lift his legs.

Zheng Jian hurriedly ordered the two officials around him to come over and help Xu Ping to sit next to him.

"Don't be anxious, help me walk twice, move my legs and feet before sitting!"

Xu Ping dared not sit there at once. If the blood flows poorly and leaves some hidden diseases on his body, he would be wronged. It was just a ceremony and it was not a big deal for him for his whole life.

Seeing that Xu Ping was not sitting, Zheng Jian had to follow him slowly in the yard of Taichangyuan.

Xu Ping is a high-ranking official and low-ranking official, while Zheng Jian is the opposite. The two have little difference in their assignment levels, and the ranks are far different. Zheng Jian is now the crown prince Zhongyun, and Xu Ping has forgotten when he will reach this level, so he skipped it directly.

After being helped by the official, Xu Ping slowly felt that his legs and feet were conscious. A scent of itchy and numbness came from his legs, and he couldn't help but frown.

Sitting on the stool, the numb and itchy feeling couldn't be eliminated for a while. Xu Ping couldn't sit or stand up.

Seeing Xu Ping's uncomfortable look, Zheng Jian said solemnly: "Brother Yun Xing, the national ceremony, the four barbarians come to the court, and it is impossible to be careless at all. You are a hero of the country and are all paying attention to everyone. I hope you can endure the hard work for a while and not cause trouble at the ceremony."

Xu Ping looked at Zheng Jian with a wry smile and nodded: "I understand, I can hold on!"

Speaking of which, I have never suffered such a hardship when I led my troops into the Jiaozhi Palace, so I made up for it this time.

For Xu Ping, this was the most difficult hurdle at the ceremony. After he reported the report, King Li Foma of Jiaozhi brought the captured ministers to surrender. Neighboring countries such as Khitan and Dali gave congratulations, and there were also a group of vassals, including ministers and people of all kinds of people. Xu Ping stood there in a stern position, not knowing how long it took to wait.

After suffering for nearly an hour, Xu Ping couldn't move anymore. He could only listen to Zheng Jian talking about other precautions, and saw that it was getting late and he went home early.

In Xu Ping's yard, Lin Su Niang rubbed Xu Ping's legs and smiled and said, "If you don't upgrade to three levels and become a king and a marquis, I'm sorry for the hardships you suffered."

Xu Ping sighed: "Forget it, I just hope this matter will pass sooner. After so many years, how could he suffer such pain? It's better to do this every day than any serious punishment."

Looking at Lin Su Niang, Xu Ping said again: "Besides, my official position has been promoted too fast in the past two years, and others don't know what to think about it. Just like today's Zheng Zhiyuan, he is a Jinshi in the second year of Tiansheng, and I am a Jinshi in the fifth year of Tiansheng, and they are both first-class. He is the Prince Zhongyun, so what is the difference between me!"

Lin Suniang said: "What others say! Your officials are promoted by political achievements and military achievements. They have no benefit from any one, and they can't even chew our family!"

Seeing that Xu Ping did not speak, Lin Su Niang said softly: "It's nothing big if you have a big official and a small official. It's enough for our family to be harmonious and beautiful. But it's not wasteful to do things. If you feel that the promotion in the past two years is too fast, you can live a stable life in the capital for a few years, and it won't be jealous."

"I'm afraid sometimes I can't help myself..."

Thinking of the price fluctuations after the ceremony and the bad things he was accused of by the Secretariat, Xu Ping sighed.

I can't suffer this loss. As long as I make the right decision, I will always find it back.

Xu Shen's so-called secret method has already given sample money, which has made many people full of hope. But Xu Ping himself is in the Salt and Iron Department and knows that such money is just sample money and cannot be minted on a large scale. The workers who followed Xu Shen's coins have been suffering recently, working day and night, but they can't see hope and are often scolded.

The ceremony was approaching, and Xu Shen’s mixed iron and copper coins were not expected at all, so he still had to pay for the in-house warehouse.

The maid Cui'er came in from outside the courtyard and saluted Xu Ping and Lin Suniang and said, "Official, madam, the tall brother outside said that someone was visiting and he wanted to meet the official."

Xu Ping said: "Who is coming? Don't have any posts?"

Cui'er said: "There is no post. The person who came only said that he had a relationship with the official and had received favor from the official. He came to thank the official for thanking him."
