Ancient European aristocratic etiquette

In the Middle Ages, aristocratic etiquette was basically advocated by France and French courts, and was generally imitated by other courts. Nobles, whether enemies or friends, should greet each other when they meet. Ask men (if they are not wearing full-body armor) to hold their right chest with their left hand, take off their hats with their right hand, bow slightly and nod at the same time. The woman's rule is that her legs are slightly bent, her hands are slightly raised on both sides of the skirt and she nods. If the two sides are on horseback and the man's manners remain the same, the woman only needs to nod. If a person is wearing full-body armor, as long as he is not on the horse, he must take off his hat, press his left hand on his right chest and nod at the same time (you don't have to bend down, because the heavy body armor in the Middle Ages is integrated with the chest and waist, so you can't bend down). If you are riding a horse, you don't have to take off your hat or press your chest, just nod your head. In addition, when a male aristocrat riding a horse meets a standing aristocrat, if the other person is higher than his title or a woman, the male aristocrat must dismount and salute as long as he is not wearing armor. If the rider is wearing armor, just nod. In all cases, when saluting, the tip of the weapon must point to the ground (the drawn sword may not be put into the sheath, but the tip must point to the ground), and the archer must put the arrow into the arrow box, hold the bow in his right hand, and then salute. At that time, manners did not allow kissing a lady's hand. It is only in etiquette that nobles kiss hands when they meet the king and queen: nobles kneel on one knee and bow their heads to kiss the hands of the king and queen to show their respect. When kings and nobles meet cardinals who are in charge of their country's educational affairs, they all kiss their hands: they bow and kiss gem ring the Great, and wear a ring on the middle finger of the bishop's left hand to show his bishop's status (every bishop has this ring, which was given by the Holy See). When eating in the middle ages, the host was obliged to propose the first glass of wine. After the first glass of wine, the host and guests could toast each other. In the Middle Ages, guests and hosts were not allowed to wear full armor. Iron gloves, upper arm armor, forearm armor, front and rear breastplates and helmets are not allowed to enter the restaurant, because such wearing clearly shows that you are on guard against assassinations around you, which is a blatant affront to the reputation of others. But weapons can be carried. The better the appetite, the more the host thinks the party is a success. It is allowed to talk while eating and drinking (/kloc-it is gradually considered impolite after the 7th century), and both parties must drink until the end when toasting. Didn't say there was a slight sip now. During the meal, both the host and the guests can sing, but they are not allowed to make any noise. If there is a quarrel or trouble, no matter who is responsible, the guests should leave at once. After dinner, guests must express their gratitude to the host in words, and when leaving the table, they should also pay tribute to the whole set of etiquette mentioned in the previous paragraph.
