The traditional way to greet the Pharaoh is. this You would walk into his prescence but bowing forward and then you'd kneel on the floor and lie on the ground (like in a similar to a kowtow) and kiss the ground beneath his feet. In later times important government officals would be permitted to kiss his feet.
when speaking the prostration formula would be appropriate, NEVER address him as King or Pharaoh, a crime worthy of death. Refer to him as 'your majesty', 'son of Ra' etc
