Swinging the heavy back of his clothes backwards, Su Luoyin gently gathered his long and heavy sleeves and continued to sit by the window, looking at the scenery outside the window as usual. His expression did not change, but there was a hint of gloom between his brows.
Su Luoyin's slight displeasure was immediately caught by Xiaotao beside her. Because Su Luoyin liked quietness, she had sent all the palace servants away early on. In this empty hall, she was left alone to serve Su Luoyin, as usual.
Seeing Su Luoyin was extremely unhappy, with a heavy worry between her brows that seemed to be lingering, Xiao Tao was stunned for a moment, biting her lower lip tightly, and after a while she decided to say, "Miss Su...you don't have to worry."
"Let's not talk about anything else, just the dress you'll wear on your wedding day has been repeatedly reviewed and revised by the king. From the rules to the clothes and jewelry, everything about your wedding is carefully considered by the king. Take the wedding dress, for example. It's one of a kind in the world. The material was brought from an extremely cold place and is extremely precious. The fact that so much material was used in just one wedding dress shows how much the king values you."
"Oh? You know it again?" Su Luoyin answered casually without moving her eyes, but the noisy sound outside the window made her frown again.
Hearing Su Luoyin's tone become much lighter, Xiao Tao thought that her words had worked on him, so she also became happy and spoke without any nervousness or hesitation, "Of course."
"Miss Su, you stay indoors every day. Xiao Tao will naturally be your eyes, showing you everything in the palace."
"Heh." Su Luoyin smiled lightly. The noise outside the window today made her very uncomfortable. She left the window a little irritably and sat at the table looking at Xiaotao who was talking happily, as if she had found a fun pet.
She lazily propped up her head with her hands. "Oh? Then why don't you tell me what everyone in the palace says about me?"
"This..." Seeing Su Luoyin suddenly ask this, Xiao Tao's eyes, which had been shining brightly, suddenly dimmed. After a while, she said sullenly, "...Of course, of course they are saying good things about the young lady. I'm sure the young lady wouldn't want to hear those flattering compliments from those villains."
"Oh? Is that so?" Su Luoyin smiled even more deeply. Seeing Xiaotao's head lowering lower and her face turning slightly red, how could she not know what the real truth was? Only this silly girl really thought that she knew nothing and still wanted to use a set of extremely lame tricks to comfort herself.
Want to be her eyes?
Su Luoyin looked at Xiao Tao, who was becoming increasingly silent, and slowly shifted his gaze away, looking leisurely at the blue sky outside the window.
Be her eyes? Take her to see all these sights? But how could she know that what she longed for was not limited to the scenery of this palace, but a wider world, a more distant time and space. No, she didn't know. No one in this world could know, no one could truly understand her feelings. Not even him.
All the same.
"Never mind. I won't trouble you."
"Yes." Xiao Tao felt relieved and bowed to Su Luoyin, finally feeling relieved. Although Miss Su seemed to have a bad temper and was usually cold and indifferent, she was actually very kind to others.
