Rise early this day, refine the classics carefully and thoroughly. Although the essence of ten thousand scrolls is all in one mind, only by refining and purifying it can it become principle.

  But this drop of water pierces the stone, and silently transforms it, still needing several years or even decades. At times, feeling tired, occasionally looking out, seeing the clear sun rising outside the window, spreading its clear radiance in the courtyard not far away.

  Down the road, walking along a small path, passing by countless volumes of scriptures, yet for a moment unaware of what day today is, what body this is, but suddenly, as if awakened from a dream, he smiled dumbly. Just then, a large sedan came driving up, followed by another one, which stopped beside him.

  Just as I turned around, the car door opened and a girl sat on the long soft cushion, laughing: "I knew you didn't remember what I said. Today's grand banquet, you haven't prepared yet, have you?"

  This is a traditional lady's dress, made of transparent thin gauze layered one on top of another, luxurious and yet revealing. At this moment, Xiao Bing sat in the car, her slender figure standing out, her skirt and clothes almost as one, from her high and plump breasts tightly clinging to her waist and down, the tight small abdomen and the delicate and beautiful curve of her waist also showed themselves.

  Earrings are made of beautiful jade, a gold hairpin is horizontally inserted on the hair knot, shining brightly. But what catches people's eyes most is the necklace on her half-exposed chest, which is strung with a string of night pearls, crystal clear and bright, falling on her snow-white chest, even more dazzling. However, she sits upright with a kind of elegant and refined temperament that comes with a lazy beauty.

  Fang Xin couldn't help but feel a sense of astonishment, and he was stunned for a few seconds before remembering that Xue Bing had indeed said that today's grand banquet would gather the Xue family members, Fang Xin's parents, as well as some esteemed guests from the Fang family. This was actually an indirect way of holding a grand ceremony to formally welcome Fang Xin.

  Up until today, the tedious etiquette has been simplified, but the essence remains. Fang Xin couldn't help but say: "Bing Bing, you're really beautiful."

  "Never mind. Hurry up and change your clothes, I've brought someone over." Xiao Bing said with a smile.

  A large car followed behind, and a group of people got out, who were professional beauty care personnel.

  As soon as he entered, the professional staff lit a night incense. Suddenly, the fragrance filled the space, and Fang Xin couldn't help but exclaim that this was truly luxurious. Even now, such naturally produced night incense is extremely precious.

  There is a room in the car, and even a washing area. After washing, apply an unknown fragrance cream. Ten minutes later, the fragrant oil has been absorbed into the skin. Not only can it make the skin soft and smooth, but also make the fragrance last for more than ten hours.

  Wash off the perfume, put on new clothes, but it's a long gown, elegant and flowing, only the back hem is cut into a swallowtail shape, which can be considered as taking a bit of Western style. Then wear a white jade crown, with a slight makeup between the eyebrows.

  Although he was a man, relatively quick, it still took him an hour, but when Fang Xin came out, others didn't say anything, even Xiao Bing's eyes widened.

  This magnificent robe, if worn by someone else, might have been too ostentatious or even stolen the show. But when Fang Xin wore it, he exuded a refined and elegant demeanor from head to toe, effortlessly incorporating everything into his being. His slender figure, resplendent with intricate embroidery, seemed to transcend the mundane world. The white jade crown on his head and the sword-like eyebrows that flew upwards only added to his aura of refinement, elegance, and purity, leaving Xiao Bing almost breathless.

  After a moment of silence, Xiao Bing finally came back to her senses and said: "Get on the bus!"

  The van was in front, Fang Xin got on and sat down beside her. The car started moving, and after a while, Xiao Bing pinched him and said: "You're so popular, how many girls' hearts have you won?"

  Fang Xin couldn't help but smile wryly, it turned out that Xiao Bing was also jealous.

  The fleet advanced, Fang Xin knew that this time they were going to the main house of Xiao's family - Nanning Garden!

  The convoy set out, and in a short while they were already outside the city. After traveling another 20 kilometers, they finally saw a distant estate. The estate was vast, covering thousands of acres. When they arrived at the entrance, Fang Xin saw that on the stone gate, there was a calligraphy work by a master calligrapher, written from top to bottom.

  China means taking the essence and gathering it widely, while things take on a beautiful and prosperous appearance.

  In summer, families inherit the teachings of saints and sages, while countries follow the legacy of benefiting each other.

  The highest, however, said: The noble descendants of the Yellow Emperor and Yan Huang of China

  The fleet had just entered when the welcoming ceremony began, with dozens of musicians playing in unison, joyful and jubilant.

  Fang Xin Meng's daze, his eyes gazing out, saw only the garden's winding river, flowing gently. At this time, in the May imperial court, the late peaches were in full bloom, a final burst of splendor. The peach blossoms stretched out in a continuous sheet, red as fire, white as snow, for a moment, it was unclear whether he was in heaven or on earth.

  China China, today is really China.

  Especially these two sentences have said all the essence of ancient Chinese civilization.

  The term "Hua" refers to the idea of taking in the essence and breadth of something, while also conveying a sense of grandeur and prosperity. In literature, history, and economics, one must strive to be the best in the world to truly embody the spirit of Hua.

  In the Xia Dynasty, families inherited the teachings of saints and sages, while countries followed the interests that had been passed down. Families have a thousand-year-old source of saints and sages, while nations inherit the interests of our country and people and pass them down from generation to generation. This is also the true Xia chapter.

  Clothes must be exquisite, things must be abundant, people must be polite and learned, the country must benefit, monarchs and ministers must praise our country and our people. Seeing this, I almost believe that it is not by chance, but rather a result of my past life.

  Clothing is simple, materials are scarce, the people are hungry and cold. As for the source of our thousand-year civilization, it's almost been severed. For a long time, the country has been unable to protect its interests or gain benefits. The ruler and his ministers can't even discuss the welfare of our nation and people. We have no choice but to borrow from Western civilization in order to survive, which fills my heart with pain and makes me want to cry, my eyes are red.

  "What's wrong?" Xiao Bing's keen sense picked up on his emotions and she couldn't help but turn around to ask.

  "Nothing's wrong, are we getting off? Should we make a big show of it?" Fang Xin suppressed his emotions and turned around to ask Xiao Bing with a smile.

  Xiao Bing looked at him worriedly, but smiled and said: "No need, just a bow is enough, if you want to make a big gesture, wait until that day!"

  As she spoke, a faint blush rose to her cheeks.

  That's when they got married naturally.

  At this moment, someone came to the car door. Fang Xin got out first. As soon as he came out, the people around him took a deep breath and applause rose. Such a young man was rarely seen even in the empire.

  The man from the Fang family, who was also wearing a long gown, stood upright with broad shoulders, and his eyes lit up at once. However, he furrowed his brow at the same time, thinking: "Such a talented young man from our own family, why didn't we know about him? How could he end up outside and be obtained by the Xiao family instead?"

  Fang Xin turned around, opened the door for Xiao Bing, and then Xiao Bing stretched out a hand. This green jade-like hand rested on Fang Xin's hand as he slowly got out of the car. As soon as they stepped out, they also received applause. These two were truly a perfect match.

  At this time, the guests who had been invited to the banquet had arrived in large numbers. The ladies all wore their hair in high buns and were dressed in elegant clothes with jade rings, pearls, bracelets, and jade belts that jingled as they moved. For a moment, the fragrance of perfume and the shadow of their hair could be seen, revealing the grandeur of the banquet.

  Fang Xin led Xiao Bing forward, cupped his hands and bowed, saying: "Greetings, Uncle and Aunt!"

  "It doesn't matter, as long as you're here, it's good that you're here." Xiao Bing's parents both smiled, and from any angle, these two were truly a perfect match, filled with joy.

  Xiao Hongqin was even more satisfied, saying: "Xin'er, from now on you must take good care of Bing'er!"

  She has broken through the fifth stage, and naturally she is no longer bound by worldly etiquette, speaking her mind freely, taking or leaving only as she sees fit. Otherwise, she wouldn't have agreed to Xiao Bing's choice so easily before.

  "Of course!" Fang Xin said solemnly, turning his head to look at Xiao Bing, the two of them exchanged a glance and smiled in unison.

  Everyone present was delighted, and upon hearing Xiao Hongqin's words, they saw the loving affection revealed in the two people's smiling glances at each other. They immediately knew that this marriage would definitely come to fruition, leaving no room for others to intervene. With smiles, they all came forward to offer their congratulations.

  Fortunately, thanks to this banquet, they were all family members and there were no outsiders involved. However, even so, it took half an hour.

  "Dong!" The bell rang out, reminding everyone to take their seats. At the imperial banquet, there was always a good time, and generally, the host would not arbitrarily adjust the timing. Fang Xin listened and couldn't help but let out a sigh of relief.

  Entering the main hall, taking a seat. This seating arrangement is based on ancient rituals and modern adaptations, of course it's not possible to kneel down, but at the table, there is still one person per table or one family per table.

  Xiao Bing was supposed to sit with her parents, but instead she calmly sat down at the same table as Fang Xin, which further showed everyone her attitude. Just as they were seated, the music started, and a heavenly melody flowed from the guqin.

  In a grand family gathering, banquets must be accompanied by music, which is also a tradition of the Huaxia Empire.

  After Fang Xin and Xiao Bing sat down, Fang Xin helped her take off her outer cloak, revealing the dress inside. They touched each other's skin, smiled at each other, and enjoyed the feeling of their skin touching. Then Xiao Bing sat up straight, following etiquette, her body was straight as a pen, which made her plump chest curve even more prominent, making Fang Xin appreciate it even more.

  The maid hurriedly poured wine and waited until she finished, then poured wine for all the seats. After a brief pause, everyone raised their cups to toast the host of the main table.

  The banquet began with this.

  Such a banquet emphasizes an atmosphere, etiquette and hospitality.

  Whether it's tableware, decorations, or the maid's dress, there are profound taboos. This is the culmination of thousands of years of imperial banquets and art combined, rivaling the art of tea.

  It's also a banquet, of course, the empire is big, and different places are not the same. The style of banquets is countless, but overall, it can be divided into pre-banquet, during the banquet, and after the banquet. Before the banquet, there are some small dishes, mostly wine dishes, which are intended to stimulate everyone's appetite and make them enter a joyful atmosphere.

  At the Imperial Banquet, it was said: "Therefore, before the banquet, there are three small points. One is to open the flavor, two is to enter the interest, three is to play music, and the atmosphere is lively and refreshing. The eyes can see the color, the nose can smell the fragrance, the tongue can taste the flavor, and the ears should listen to the music. This is called four complete, this is indeed the way of unity of body and mind!"

  If it were Li Bai who came here, he would truly understand the real meaning of "one should enjoy life to the fullest when things are going well".

  This banquet is also the accumulation of Chinese culture for 4,000 years, with poetry, books, etiquette and music, a feast of singing and dancing, where the art of writing has been condensed to its peak.

  Fang Xinning's enlightenment is both proud and sentimental, with a mix of sweet and bitter emotions. After raising the cup, he drained it in one gulp, feeling the fragrance fill his mouth and heart, his emotions overflowing to the point where he almost burst into tears.

  Excuse me for writing slowly, it's actually written from the heart, but my eyes have turned red. I've stopped my pen several times. Why don't you all say something too? At least I'm deeply moved myself!
