The two of them just held their own in silence, and the maids helped to dress them up.
When Qiucao asked the palace maid to hold a bronze mirror to check her makeup, she secretly glanced at Muzi a few steps away. His face was expressionless and showed no emotion at all.
Qiucao couldn't help but break into a cold sweat. She knew that there was no way a man wouldn't mind such a thing! Look, his face was so depressed!

How about...tell a joke to make him laugh?[
However, what if it's not funny and makes the atmosphere weird? Or... don't say it.
Qiucao gritted her teeth and suppressed the words that rushed to her throat.
Finally, the makeup and clothes were confirmed and there were no problems, and it was time to leave for the palace where the emperor lived. However, Qiucao froze there, neither walking nor walking, not knowing what to do at all, because Muzi was sitting

The person sitting there was minding his own business, his eyes were wandering, he didn't know what he was thinking, and he didn't respond at all.
The maids, like Mu Zi, did not react at all, and still stood upright waiting for orders.
A huge bead of cold sweat broke out on Qiucao's forehead. She felt extremely embarrassed. If she had known better, she would not have said anything. Look, she is being ignored now.

Qiucao burst into tears.
What should I do now? Shut up or continue to find topics to talk about? But...will I be ignored again if I say it?
Qiucao bit her lip and hesitated.
How about not talking and just follow the maids in silence? But...if you remain silent, the queen will...
