Andhigh ranking ancient people called them selves by their titles, it didn’t have to be a title of nobility, for example if you’ve read scumbag self saving system, Shen Qingqiu calls himself benzuo or this seat, meaning: I, who am a master/teacher.
Other low ranking people tended to show themselves as humble and respected the higher of rank by lowering themselves and calling themselves by the “lower rank” infrastructure of the higher.
The case in this manhua, when you’re in front of an emperor, since you’re lower of rank compared to him, you would call yourself weichen or 微臣 meaning : this humble servant.
For people who may not know:
Huangquan or 黄泉 (literal meaning : yellow spring) means the underworld or the netherworld
Bengong or 本宫 means this queen/ this empress.
For the ancient Chinese titles was very important.
It’s quite the same nowadays, but the importance today is on the occupation since there’s no Cast system. You can call a taxi driver 老张，a teacher is called literally a teacher + last name (surname), etc.
