Chapter 559 and the ceremony
During Liu Bingfan's filial piety period, he couldn't hold the Jiji Ceremony, so only the Liu family and the Xue family attended the Jiji Ceremony, not even the music.

Liu Bingfan sat in the east room early and waited.

The eldest princess, the old lady, Liu Huaidong and others stood at the entrance of the hall.

Although the old lady and Liu Huaidong are Liu Bingfan's real family members, but now Liu Bingfan is the princess of the royal family with a high status, and the eldest princess has become the master of this courteous ceremony.

Fortunately, they are all their own people, so it doesn't matter if they are embarrassed or not.

Mrs. Xue Guogong, who was the official guest, brought Mrs. Xue San forward, and the eldest princess stepped forward to greet them, bowed to each other formally and entered the hall.

Mrs. Xue Guogong took the guest of honor seat, Mrs. Xue San stood behind, and people from outside the hall entered the hall one after another and stood at the audience seats.

After that, the eldest princess and the family members of the Liu family took the host seat.

Everything is ready.

The eldest princess got up, with a slight smile on her face: "Today my little girl Liu Bingfan is going to be a coming-of-age ceremony, so I won't say much. The little girl Liu Bingfan's coming-of-age ceremony has officially begun."

"Please Liu Bingfan." The princess's smile was extraordinarily happy, as if it was a gift from her biological woman.

Mrs. Xue San came out from behind Mrs. Xue Guogong as a supporter, washed her hands, and took her seat on the west steps.

Liu Bingfan came out from the east room, walked to the center of the hall, faced south, bowed to all the people watching the ceremony, and then sat on the seat facing west.

Mrs. Xue San stepped forward and untied Liu Bingfan's double buns, her long hair poured down, and then took the comb to recomb Liu Bingfan's hair, and then put the comb on the south side of the mat.

Mrs. Xue Guogong got up, and the eldest princess got up after her, accompanying Mrs. Xue Guogong.

Mrs. Xue Guogong washed her hands on the east steps and wiped them dry. After bowing to each other with the Eldest Princess, they returned to their seats and sat down.

Liu Bingfan turned to sit on the east side. At this time, a secretary offered Luopa and hairpin, Mrs. Xue Guogong walked in front of Liu Bingfan, and chanted congratulations loudly:

"On the auspicious day of the lunar month, I will start to add yuan clothes. Abandon your young ambitions, and follow your success. Shoukao Weiqi, Jieer Jingfu."

Then he knelt down on the mat and combed Liu Bingfan's hair, then got up and returned to his original position.

Mrs. Xue San helped Liu Bingfan up, and the spectators bowed to congratulate Liu Bingfan.

Liu Bingfan got up and returned to the east room, Mrs. Xue took the clothes from Yousi, and changed Liu Bingfan into a plain dress that matched the hairpin on her head.

After Liu Bingfan walked out of the east room wearing a skirt, she showed it to the spectators, and then faced the eldest princess, the old lady, and Liu Huaidong, and performed formal salutes.

This is the first prayer, expressing gratitude for the kindness of parents in nurturing.

Liu Bingfan sat down again, facing the East, Mrs. Xue Guogong washed her hands again, and Yousi immediately presented her hairpin.

Mrs. Xue Guogong took it, walked up to Liu Bingfan, and chanted congratulations loudly:

"The auspicious moon and the chen are Shen Erfu. Respect Er's majesty, Shu Shende. My sister will live forever and receive Hu Fu forever."

Mrs. Xue San took off the hairpin for Liu Bingfan.

Mrs. Xue Guogong knelt down, put hairpins on Liu Bingfan's hairpin, then got up and returned to her seat.

The spectators bowed to Liu Bingfan again.

When Liu Bingfan returned to the east room, Mrs. Xue San took her clothes and went to change Liu Bingfan into a dark dress with a curved train that matched the hairpin on her head.

After Liu Bingfan walked out of the east room in dark clothes, he showed it to the spectators, and then faced the eldest princess, the old lady, and Liu Huaidong, and performed formal salutes.

This is the second worship, showing respect to teachers and seniors.

Then, as before, Mrs. Xue Guogong washed her hands again, took over the hairpin crown from Yousi, and chanted her congratulations loudly:
"With the righteousness of the year, with the order of the month, Xianjiaer obeys. Brothers are present, so that they can become Jude. The yellow scorpion has no boundaries, and it is celebrated by the sky."

Mrs. Xue San went to distribute hairpins for Liu Bingfan, and Mrs. Xue Guogong knelt down to add hairpins to Liu Bingfan.

Liu Bingfan accepted everyone's congratulations with a smile on his lips, returned to the east room, and continued to change into a dress with large sleeves and long skirt that matched the hairpin crown on his head.

Then walk through the previous steps and perform the third prostration, expressing the determination to inherit and serve.

The ceremony of Jiji is cumbersome and complicated, with three additions and three prayers, which symbolizes the process of a girl's growth and her future obligations.

Liu Bingfan knelt on the table and listened to the princess's admonition and instruction.

After hearing this, Liu Bingfan continued to salute and said: "Although my son is not sensitive, I dare not only accept it!"

Liu Bingfan felt that he had been doing this Jiji salute for several hours, so long that his neck was a little sore, and finally, after everything was over, he saluted with everyone, and the salute was completed with everyone's blessing.
