Chapter 0656 Kneel down and apologize
In the face of the absolute class gap, there is no reason at all.
And in the circle of noble ladies in the capital, her elegy is the truth!
Before anyone could think about it, Zuo Elegy had already given a look to Tong Zhiling next to him. Tong Zhiling understood the idea and immediately said angrily: "How dare you offend Sister Elegy and not kneel down to apologize!"
Nie Ling'er's face darkened again, but her body showed no reaction at all.
A daughter of a noble family should be well-educated and well-behaved in words and deeds. However, this dignified prime minister can find an excuse to make others kneel down just because she is angry.
It really surprised her!
I have to say that those unruly girls I saw on TV were not fabricated out of thin air. Today, she has really learned a lot.
Chun Cha couldn't bear to see her young lady being wronged, so she couldn't help but argue: "You guys are obviously..."
In the middle of speaking, Nie Ling'er held her down.
No matter what Chun Cha wants to say, she can't come forward at this time. Firstly, her identity is just a maid, and secondly, if she argues at this time, they will really be accused of disrespect.
Chun Cha's angry expression fell into Tong Zhiling's eyes. Tong Zhiling, who was thinking about how to vent her anger on Zuo Elegy, raised her hand and greeted Chun Cha's face without saying a word: "Just a maid, How dare you talk too much!"
However, Nie Ling'er stretched out her hand to catch the slap in mid-air, and then Nie Ling'er's cold voice sounded: "The maid is ignorant. I will punish you when I get back, so I won't bother this young lady to do anything."
After finishing speaking, Nie Ling'er exerted a little force and shook off Tong Zhiling's hand.
Tong Zhiling's eyes widened in anger, but Nie Ling'er looked at Zuo Elegy and said with a neither humble nor arrogant expression: "It's the first time a civilian daughter has entered the capital, and it's her first time to attend a banquet in such a noble place as Prince Xiang's Mansion. If not, I know the rules and accidentally contradicted the young lady, and I hope that the young lady will not remember the villain's fault."
With these words, Nie Ling'er seemed to be apologizing, but in fact, she still did not admit that she had contradicted the other party.
But based on the idea that one thing is worse than one thing less, she does not want to cause trouble today, let alone get entangled with others.
It's just that Zuo Elegy didn't feel relieved. In fact, the pride in Nie Ling'er's heart was too obvious. Even in front of him, he never condescended to him even a little bit.
He is obviously just a commoner, but I don’t know where his backbone comes from.
I heard her humming softly, still maintaining a condescending attitude: "I want you to kneel down and apologize, can't you hear me?"
As she said that, she cast her eyes lightly at Chun Cha and said: "If you can't satisfy me, I will drag out the slave next to you who is eager to protect his master and whip him with a cane!"
This sentence finally gave Nie Ling'er a clear expression.
Chun Cha shrank in shock and subconsciously looked at his young lady.
The reactions of the master and servant all fell into Zuo Elegy's eyes, and a look of satisfaction filled her eyes.
Even Wei Dongzhu gently shook his head at Nie Ling'er at this time, signaling her not to say any more.
Although this is Prince Xiang's Mansion, it's just a matter of words for the daughter of Zuo Xiang to marry off a maid.
As long as you kneel down and admit your mistake, the matter will be exposed and it won't be a big deal.
Yes, what's the big deal about kneeling? How could Nie Ling'er not know it? This is Dazhao, in ancient times, and it is the rule here for a commoner to kneel in front of the prime minister's daughter.
And she has already adapted to this kind of class oppression and the rules of kneeling when meeting people.
But if it's just a matter of kneeling between respect and inferiority, then kneeling is just kneeling. But she is asked to apologize for an unfounded crime. What crime should she apologize for?
Even though she felt dissatisfied in her heart, Nie Ling'er's knees were already bending slightly. She was kneeling for nothing else but spring tea!
"Miss..."
Chun Cha's eyes turned red when she saw this, but she didn't dare to act rashly again. She blamed herself secretly in her heart. If she hadn't held back just now, the other party wouldn't have thought of using him to threaten the young lady.
But the fact is that even if Chun Cha doesn't say anything, his young lady will not be able to escape this difficulty.
Contrast with Zuo Elegy is the original sin of all this!
Seeing Nie Ling'er's body sinking gradually, Zuo Elegy's mouth had a faint smile, and Tong Zhiling's expressions were even more gloating.
It was a common thing for a commoner to kneel in front of him, but for some reason, Zuo Elegy felt prouder than ever before and felt particularly comfortable.
But at this moment, a delicate but angry shout suddenly sounded at the entrance of the garden: "What are you doing!"
With just one sound, everyone's attention was instantly attracted.
I only saw Princess Changle in gorgeous clothes appearing in the garden surrounded by servants. The moment she entered the garden, Princess Changle saw her sister's posture.
It's obviously a kneeling position.
Seeing Li'er, Nie Ling'er's kneeling posture stopped. When the attention of others was also attracted, Chun Cha quickly straightened Nie Ling'er's body: "Miss, the princess is here!"<
/p>
Everyone in Zuo Elegy, including the others who had just watched the excitement from a distance, were all a little confused at this time.
Because today's banquet is Princess Changle's first appearance in front of the capital's dignitaries after arriving in the capital, so these people don't even know who the person in front of them is!
"You still don't kneel down to say hello when you see Princess Changle!" The servants on the side saw this and couldn't help but remind her.
Princess Changle?
Hearing this, everyone suddenly came back to their senses, and then saw everyone in the garden kneeling down: "See you, Princess, may the Princess be blessed!"
The emperor personally ennobles him, enjoys a first-grade salary, and receives kneeling salutes from ministers below the second grade. For such a noble body, everyone in the courtyard must kneel down at this time.
When everyone knelt down, Princess Changle walked quickly to Nie Ling'er, bent down and helped her up: "Sister."
The sound of sister made everyone around them widen their eyes.
Zuo Elegy and Tong Zhiling glanced at each other subconsciously, their eyes full of shock.
This little folk girl is actually the sister of Princess Changle?
No wonder there is an invitation from Prince Xiang’s Mansion!
Seeing Li'er, Nie Ling'er pursed her lips and smiled, her eyes full of friendship that was about to overflow. Although she didn't say anything, just looking at her like this was enough.
Supreme honor and splendor, even if she tried her best, she could not give her so much. At this moment, Nie Ling'er suddenly felt that this result was also very good!
Princess Changle's face was more worried. Although she didn't know the reason, she could clearly see that her sister was going to kneel down to these people just now.
"Sister, what happened?" Princess Changle asked.
Nie Ling'er sighed softly, and her eyes fell on Zuo Elegy.
Although Zuo Elegy was kneeling on the ground with her head lowered, she could feel Nie Ling'er's eyes looking at her.
