It was 3 days since Le Huan's visit to the empress palace right now he was in the emperor's office learning Xiangqi from it and he must admit he wasn't a match for the mother and son just like the mother the son was exceptionally good,
"I lost" he said
The emperor nod
"Don't worry you gotten a bit closer this time"
"Ah yes I'll learn more if that is all shall I take my leave" he said
He nod in agreement.
"I'll be heading to the Empress dowger palace today" he said
"I see shall you have a rematch with empress dowger?" he asked
"I need to study not only his majesty's move but the Empress dowger as well so she can fully understand the game" he replies
He nod he gently bow his head to leave and head to the empress dowger palace,
"Your here" she said surprised
"Juan like a rematch with the empress" he said
The empress dowger said nothing and nod now they were at the same spot at they were the last, the empress took a sip of the tea and was startled by it's smoothing taste.
"Hmm who made this tea?" She asked looking aside fiercely
All the servants looked at each other in fear then kowtow.
"Excuse your majesty but it's Juan's maid servant Meilin" he answered calmly
Juan who was on the floor felt fear at the empress temper
"Raise your head" she commands.
With reluctance he raised his head
"Ha you are pretty you seemed well taken care of" the empress said
Meilin dared not say anything as the empress dowger continued,
"You make good tea I can sense the care you put in it do you value your lady?" The empress dowger asked
Meilin place his head back on the floor and answer
"To this servant his lady means everything this servant cannot do without her ladyship and wishes to please her no matter what," he said honestly
The empress was please it was obvious this servant was not lying to find kind loyal servants like this is rare even rarer if they were this pretty the empress dowger was impressed the 2 continue to play the empress dowger peeked at his movements with curiousity.
"Have you been playing with Qiao Qiao?" she said
Le Huan nods,
"To become a better opponent for the empress dowger Juan request trials with the emperor" he said
"And Qiao agreed?" She empress said surprised
"Yes I think his imperial majesty was more baffled at the thought of empress dowger playing Xiangqi so he teaches her so Juan can spend so time in his absence" Le Huan said.
The empress dowger nods satisfied then took a sip of the tea and placed the cup back down.
"Concubine Na Juan from now on you shall address me as empress mother"
Le Huan was surprised so were the other servants that they felt as though something must be wrong with there hearing,
"Juan is speechless" he said
"You have changed so much your aura your attitude your attire it makes this old lady wonder if it was the same child that had yelled and called this lady an old demon"
Le Huan felt ashamed Juan had no manners he wanted to beat some into him Le Huan kowtow.
"Juan is sincerely sorry and prays for empress dowger forgiveness this child was foolish and he wouldn't dare do such a thing again," he said
"Sit up child you don't want harm this lady's grandchild do you that's in the pass this empress dowger will forget it's already been forgiven" the empress dowger said worried.
Le Huan looked up still ashamed even if it wasn't him he had great respect for the elderly
"Now you shall called me empress mother for I've come to see you as my own" the empress dowger smiled.
"Juan thanks empress mother and hopes this little one can be as wise as her" he said
"I know you'll become even wiser than this lady now shall we finish" she smiled
"Ofcourse"
