The two sisters said a few more words, and then they broke up. As soon as they returned to the yard, they saw that Wang's mother had been waiting in the house with two maids for a long time, and He Yan hurried forward to salute.

"Mother Wang."

Seeing He Yan sitting at the table drinking tea, Ms. Wang nodded earnestly. Before she finished her cup of tea, Ms. Wang snatched it away.

"Miss is wrong, the posture of serving tea is not like this." While speaking, Wang Mama demonstrated it again, and looked at the occasional He Yan with sharp eyes, "From the moment you step into this door, you will follow the old slave Learn the rules, from before you enter the palace, this old slave will always be by your side, but if there is a rule that is wrong, this old slave will correct it."

Mama Wang pushed the cup in front of He Yan again, "Miss San please have some tea."

Frowning and looking at the cup of tea in front of her, He Yan pouted and muttered, "It's just a cup of tea, why are there so many rules?"

"Don't open your mouth when drinking tea." Mother Wang reprimanded sharply.

"Oh."

Looking at the sad master sitting upright and holding a cup in his hand, Xiao Ruo smiled unkindly.

This laugh drew the eyes of the two of them, He Yan's eyes were very sad, but Wang's mother's expression was somewhat disapproving, under the eyes of the two, Xiao Ruo immediately restrained her smile, her face was expressionless standing there.

Even drinking a cup of tea has rules, and it is necessary to spend it like this before entering the palace. He Yan was inexplicably angry, and silently condemned the emperor who had never met.

If it wasn't for his imperial decree, she wouldn't have to suffer here. Thinking that there was still half a month before the draft, He Yan felt like crying.

Mo Yi, who was reading the memorial in the imperial study, had an itchy nose and sneezed, and it was this small sneeze that alarmed Su Pei.

"The weather has turned cold in recent days, please pay attention to your health, Your Majesty."

Su Pei hurriedly served a cup of ginseng tea, and at the same time sorted out the memorials on the desk, put the reviewed ones in a bamboo basket, and sent them to the Shangshutai by the eunuch in a while.

"I'm fine." After drinking ginseng tea, he felt much warmer, so Mo Yi picked up the memorial and continued to read.

Out of the corner of his eye, he caught a glimpse of the chessboard next to him, folded the playing with his fingers involuntarily, got up and walked to the soft couch, touched the black chess pieces, and the scene of playing chess with He Yan that day came to mind.

Holding the Wenrun chess pieces in her fingers, she reproduced the chess game that day with her memory, staring down at the black and white chessboard, Mo Yi's eyes exuded a trace of tenderness.

"Su Pei, how's the situation of the He family?"

Since he left, he secretly sent people to sneak into He's house, watching He Yan's every move, in order to relieve the pain of lovesickness.

Seeing that the emperor mentioned He Yan, Su Pei didn't dare to hide anything, and his expression became extremely respectful.

"My Majesty, in order to deal with the matter of entering the palace for the selection of girls, Mrs. He specially sent someone to teach Miss He the rules."

"Learn the rules?" Hearing this, Mo Yi couldn't help but raise his brows amusedly, "It would be strange if she could remember all the locked rules with her jumpy personality."

Thinking of the appearance of his subordinates when they reported, Su Pei couldn't help but smile.

"Who says it's not? When the old servant heard the report from his subordinates, he said that the third lady can't wait to eat or drink. As long as she opens her eyes, she has to learn the rules. Yesterday, the third lady couldn't help but go out to play, and she was beaten by the king. Mom was reprimanded!"

Su Pei's vivid description brought that scene to Mo Yi's mind, and he smiled suddenly on his stern face.

"I am already very happy if she can endure until she enters the palace." In a few days, she will be by my side every day.

Mo Yi couldn't help but beam with joy, and his deep eyes were full of affection, "By the way, how are the preparations at Chuxiu Palace going?"

"Everything has been prepared according to your order, Your Majesty, and we will wait for the third lady to enter the palace." Su Pei smiled and arched his hands, "The people we arranged are all our people, and we will not leak any news."

"You do things, I don't worry."

Thinking about the situation on the chessboard, Mo Yi tapped his fingers on the table, imagining that He Yan was sitting opposite.

Out of the corner of his eye, he glanced at the endgame of the chessboard. Su Pei was standing next to Mo Yi with a chess basket, and the white pieces were placed inside, "Your Majesty, it's your turn to make a move."

Touching a chess piece, Mo Yi couldn't make a move for a long time, "If it's you, according to the current situation, how sure are you of winning?"

Glancing at the chess game, "The emperor's chess skills are rare in the world, so naturally this white piece won."

Hearing this, Mo Yi suddenly showed a smile, "Guess who I played this game of chess with?"

Mo Yi has always loved playing chess, and his chess skill has few opponents. There are very few people who can compete with him on the chessboard, and there are only a few people in the court. The thrilling chess game can only be...

"Prime Minister Gu?" Su Pei answered cautiously.

"Wrong." Mo Yi looked up at Su Pei, playing with the Wenrun chess piece in his hand, "It's He Yan, she holds the black pieces, and I hold the white pieces."

Looking at the turbulent chess game with surprised eyes, Su Pei clenched the whisk tightly in his hand and shook his head in admiration.

"Heizi is the first, but Baizi is the one who comes later. Even so, Heizi can still stabilize the situation and fight with it. It really doesn't look like a country girl."

It is astonishing that a country girl can have such wisdom.

Just when Su Pei was admiring, Mo Yi couldn't help but looked up, looked straight at Su Pei with cold eyes, and asked in a cold tone, "Country girl?"

Su Pei realized that he had said something wrong, and immediately bent down, raised his hand and slapped himself on the mouth, "It's an old slave who is clumsy and has angered the emperor. He should be punished."

Glancing briefly at Su Pei, Mo Yi returned his gaze to the chessboard, groping for the pieces in his hand, with a stern expression on his face, as if he was thinking about something.

"You're right, she's a country girl, but..." the voice paused slightly, eyes squinted at Su Pei, "she's very smart, and even gave me a very special feeling."

After stopping the emperor's words, Su Pei nodded in agreement, "This old slave thinks so too. When the decree was announced that day, this old slave paid special attention to Miss San, and found that her eyes were more open-minded than ordinary people, as if, The look of someone outside."

Some of her looks after she has been enlightened, but she also has an extraordinary persistence, which really doesn't match her age. Gui'er has a contradictory feeling, which is very special.

Thinking back on everything about He Yan and her obsession with revenge, Mo Yi couldn't help but fall silent. What kind of entanglement did she have with Qin Ziyu?

Just as he was lost in thought, Zhong Zhenyi suddenly came into the imperial study room, and respectfully bowed his hands in front of Mo Yi.

"Report to the emperor, the queen empress asks to see you."

After a long time, the emperor still didn't reply, Zhong Zhenyi, who was kneeling on the ground, felt puzzled, exchanged a look with Su Pei, and looked at the emperor, meaning to ask him to speak for him.
