Xiao Mo did not refuse, following Qin Siyao to her chambers.
Hanjiu Hall wasn't quiet at the moment; in fact, it was rather lively.
After all, Qin Siyao had only recently entered the palace, so most of the Palace Maids had little to do.
A few of them had gathered to chat, idly working on the tasks at hand.
However, when they saw their mistress and Your Majesty enter Hanjiu Hall, they were startled and hurried forward, kneeling on either side and calling out in unison:
"We servants welcome Your Majesty and Lady Mu back to the palace…"
"You may rise."
Xiao Mo nodded, allowing them to rise.
"Go on about your duties. There is no need to be so formal in Hanjiu Hall, just as long as you don't break the rules."
Qin Siyao added with a wave of her hand.
"Thank you, Your Majesty. Thank you, Lady Mu," the maids chorused.
Paying them no more mind, Qin Siyao led Xiao Mo into the room.
"Brother Your Majesty, please have some tea first."
