The twelve women followed her instructions just like on the day of her wedding, beginning to groom and adorn her. This time, the makeup was different from the last, allowing Yin Luo to experience another kind of beauty.
Her raven-black hair was styled into an elegant updo, secured with delicate white pearl flowers on one side. On the other side, a large blue flower was pinned above her ear, enhancing her complexion that glowed like snow.
Beneath her graceful neck was a water-blue floor-length gown, covered by a sheer veil. The veil could not conceal the colors beneath, making the blue and white blend together in a way that added a refreshing touch. Her slender waist was cinched with a belt adorned with white plum blossoms against a blue background, accentuating her delicate figure that could barely be grasped by one hand. A beautiful jade pendant hung from the belt, with pearl tassels swaying gently as she walked, exuding a tranquil yet lively charm.
Once finished with her makeup, Yin Luo gazed at herself in the bronze mirror, momentarily lost in thought.
After all, such a visage had never been seen in her past life. A person so ethereal, like a fairy from a painting, occupying her soul—she wondered whether it was a blessing or a curse.
After getting ready, she was led out of the mansion by the twelve women. Su Yi was waiting for her at the entrance. Upon seeing her emerge, his eyes widened in astonishment until the twelve women brought her before him. Only then did Su Yi come to his senses and excitedly took Yin Luo's arm, whispering in her ear, "Madam, you look so beautiful today; I fear even the fairies in the sky cannot compare."
Yin Luo glanced at him but said nothing. Instead, she turned her gaze toward the carriage waiting outside and asked, "Where are we going?"
Su Yi quickly replied, "The prince instructed me to take you to Yongning Temple to pay respects today. The carriage is all prepared; we were just waiting for you."
"Yongning Temple?"
"Yes! Yongning Temple is the national temple—large and beautiful—and particularly effective; ordinary people cannot even enter. Madam, you should feel honored; the prince is willing to take you along!"
She had seen many temples and wasn't particularly impressed; however, she did not show it on her face and calmly said, "Help me up."
A servant immediately crouched in front of the carriage. Su Yi supported Yin Luo, indicating for her to step over the servant's back. Yin Luo glanced at him and then, from the other side, steadied herself against the carriage wall and climbed in.
The servant exchanged glances with others, and Su Yi found it a bit strange as well, but neither of them said anything until the carriage slowly started moving.
Mu Changqing was inside the carriage. He had changed into a new outfit, now wearing a moon-white elegant robe. He had also changed his mask to a half-silver one, and his hair was styled with a Jade Hairpin. Sitting quietly, he appeared like an extraordinary young gentleman, exuding an aura that was extremely pleasant. Especially notable was the absence of the coldness that usually surrounded him; instead, he looked very approachable. Fortunately, Yin Luo had seen his true face before, so she was not deceived by his appearance this time.
She couldn't be bothered to speak to him or greet him and directly chose a spot farthest from him to sit down.
Mu Changqing watched her movements, his gaze darkening instantly, his thin lips pressed into a line. Yin Luo pretended not to see and leaned against the carriage wall, looking out at the beautiful scenery through the curtain fluttering in the wind, feeling quite content.
Seeing her like this only made Mu Changqing more displeased, but he ultimately said nothing and simply sat there with his eyes closed, resting.
With a sudden "whoosh," the window was blown open, startling the drowsy Yin Luo awake in an instant. However, what she saw first left her utterly astonished.
