The game starts with escaping from the famine and flipping the table

Use auspicious rites to respect ghosts and gods, use inauspicious rites to mourn the country, use guest rites to be friendly to guests, use military rites to punish the disloyal, and use good rites to make peace with relatives. These are called the Five Rites.

Master Bian and Chu Yueyan explained these five rituals in detail to everyone in the Su family.

Su Mingyi studied these five rituals very seriously. There was no other way, Master Bian and Chu Yueyan paid special attention to the two brothers Su Mingyi and Su Mingxian.

After all, these two brothers will be the leaders of the Su family in the future, and they must master this knowledge.

Even the court etiquette was explained over and over again, but it was really just a rote explanation.

After all, Master Bian was forced by villains right after he graduated from high school, and he ended up attending a royal banquet.

Although Chu Yueyan was better, the chances of the Hanlin Academy Hanlin entering the palace to meet the emperor were few and far between, except for a few university scholars and lecturers.

However, Chu Yueyan had to go home to mourn before he had enough experience. Therefore, although he had studied the palace etiquette seriously, he had not practiced it many times.

It can be said that Su Mingyi is already very familiar with other etiquette, only the palace etiquette remains in theory. This is also the fundamental reason why he failed to discover Liu Ma's details in the first place.

Now that I had some doubts in my mind, I naturally observed more carefully.

Looking at Matron Liu performing the salute, I was suddenly reminded of court etiquette.

When Madam Liu saluted, she placed her left leg in front and her right leg behind, with the two legs crossed. Her right hand was facing up and her left hand was facing down. She put her fingers together and clasped them together on the left side of her body. She bent her knees slightly and nodded her head and lowered her eyebrows.

If Su Xiaoya was present, she would definitely tell Su Mingyi that the angle of Liu Ma's greeting was very standard and did not exceed 50 degrees.

Although Su Mingyi had no concept of 50 degrees, he could still see the standard of Madam Liu's etiquette.

This Madam Liu is not a simple person.

Is this Madam Liu behind Zhao Chunhua? It can be seen that Zhao Chunhua's etiquette is much better than Su Qingzhu and his son. However, she is not as good as Madam Liu.

A master's manners are not as good as those of a servant?

What does this mean?

Thinking of how Zhao Chunhua had found him so accurately, Su Mingyi was still a little more cautious. Zhao Chunhua, on the surface, seemed to have really changed. But, her character...

Of course, being wary of Zhao Chunhua does not mean that Su Mingyi has to trust Nanny Liu.

Su Mingyi knew that Madam Liu was Zhao Chunhua's most trusted madam and the servant Zhao Chunhua trusted the most. It was observed that almost all servants in the Su Mansion regarded Madam Liu's words as the emperor's decree, which showed how much face Madam Liu had in front of Zhao Chunhua.

But why would such a person remind himself behind Zhao Chunhua's back?

Speaking of which, this is considered an act of betrayal in a wealthy family.

Su Mingyi decided to test Aunt Liu and asked in a puzzled manner:

"Mammy, why do you suddenly say this? Although I have no relationship with the two young masters of the Su family in Beijing now, we still have the same blood in our bodies. How can they harm me?"

Nanny Liu looked at the gentle Su Mingyi and did not miss the flash of vigilance in the depths of Su Mingyi's eyes. She smiled with satisfaction.

However, Aunt Liu didn't want Su Mingyi to misunderstand. If he made a mistake, it would be a big trouble. So Aunt Liu hurriedly explained:

"Sun Yueyan and I are family. Master Su can ask Sun Yueyan for the specific situation. It is not convenient for me to stay for long now."

After saying that, Madam Liu said goodbye and left. As for the rest, Madam Liu's current status really made it inconvenient for her to say more. Even if she did, Su Mingyi would not believe it.

Aunt Liu knew that Sun Yueyan would tell Su Mingyi everything in detail. By then, Su Mingyi would understand the reason and would know to be on guard against Zhao Chunhua.

Looking at Nanny Liu's departing back, Su Mingyi frowned slightly.

Sun Yueyan.

This Aunt Liu is actually a family member of Sun Yueyan?

But, when Nanny Liu and Sun Yueyan met at Jinxiu Pavilion during the day, there was nothing unusual at all?

Obviously, Zhao Chunhua didn't know Sun Yueyan and the other two.

However, Su Mingyi could hear the seriousness in Liu Ma's words. Su Mingyi knew that Liu Ma specifically mentioned Sun Yueyan because she wanted him to believe her words. After all, Sun Yueyan was indeed someone who was recognized by Su Mingyi.

However, Su Mingyi also understood that in this deep mansion, anyone might have their own purpose. Moreover, this was the capital.

Su Mingyi couldn't help but fall into deep thought. He had to be careful and cautious, figure out the whole story, and protect his own safety. Of course, he had to hide the whereabouts of Su Xiaoya and his master. At least, he couldn't reveal his whereabouts before avenging his master. Otherwise, if those people ran away, he would have to spend more time and energy.

Silent all night.

Su Mingyi thought about Madam Liu and couldn't sleep. In addition, he was in the eldest wife's house, so Su Mingyi was even more alert.

Finally, Su Mingyi simply sat up and began to meditate. Since he couldn't sleep anyway, he might as well just practice.

The next morning, Su Mingyi said goodbye without even having breakfast.

Su Qingzhu has already gone to court.

Of course, even if Su Qingzhu was at home, he would not stop Su Mingyi from leaving. At most, he would just say a few polite words.

After all, Su Mingyi lived in the Su family every day. For the sake of the rare copy, Su Qingzhu could not find fault with him and had to provide Su Mingyi with good food and drink.

Just thinking about it made Su Qingzhu feel uncomfortable. So, when Su Mingyi offered to leave, Su Qingzhu could only say that it was exactly what she wanted, so there was no reason for her to refuse.

Zhao Chunhua naturally knew what Su Qingzhu was thinking. Her own thoughts were even more complicated. She had originally wanted to repair her relationship with the Huzhou Su family. However, as soon as she thought of the consequences of possessing a treasure, Zhao Chunhua gave up the idea.

Nothing and no one is as important as the life of yourself and your family.

You only have one life, and when you die, you are really dead.

So, Zhao Chunhua didn't try to keep him.

However, Zhao Chunhua did not really ignore it. She ordered someone to keep an eye on Su Mingyi in secret.

just in case……

Madam Liu thought that Zhao Chunhua seemed timid on the surface, but was actually ruthless and cruel, so she couldn't help but be alert. She knew that Zhao Chunhua would never let her go easily. She knew so much about her, how could Zhao Chunhua let her leave alive?

Nanny Liu couldn't help but touch her face gently. Fortunately, she had the human skin mask that Shi Houpu had prepared for her in advance, which made her feel a little relieved.

At worst, I can just escape death.

Every year, some people disappear quietly in the imperial palace and the backyards of wealthy families, and everyone knows where these people have gone.

Naturally, they were all silenced.

Madam Liu knew without thinking that as long as she asked to leave, Zhao Chunhua would definitely take action. After all, only the dead can truly keep secrets.

Madam Liu secretly reminded herself that she must be more cautious and not reveal any flaws. At the same time, she prayed silently in her heart, hoping that Shi Houpu and the others could arrive in Huzhou safely. She knew that only when Shi Houpu and the others were safe, she and Sun Yueyan could do things without worries.

All I can say is that the world is unpredictable and each situation is new.

Who would have known that the direct descendant of the Huzhou Su family would come to Beijing at this critical moment?

However, no matter what Su Mingyi wants to do, those of them who stay in the capital can help Su Mingyi. They hope that their group's pledge of allegiance will satisfy Su Mingyi.

Before that, he still had to stay in the Su Mansion.

At this moment, Aunt Liu's heart was full of expectations for the future.
