Legend of the Embroiderer

The love between Su Mengyao and Li Zhao was originally a light melody. The two were inseparable and extremely sweet.

As Su Mengyao rises in the palace, her world becomes more and more complicated, and the time she spends with Li Zhao passes by like flowing water, which undoubtedly casts a shadow on their love.

At this moment, Su Mengyao stood in the palace's flower-filled garden. Her gaze penetrated through layers of petals and looked towards the distant sky.

Her heart was filled with deep longing for Li Zhao, and those warm times could only be found in memories.

The heavy affairs of the palace bound her like shackles, making it impossible for her to extricate herself.

Whenever night falls and the lights come on, she is always involuntarily caught in the vortex of various banquets and meetings, while Li Zhao's figure can only linger in her heart.

"Li Zhao, I miss you so much." Su Mengyao's voice floated in the air like a thin thread, carrying a deep sorrow and longing.

She sat by the window, looking at the distant horizon, her heart filled with endless longing.

She knew that she owed too much to Li Zhao. That carefree time that belonged only to the two of them seemed to be still before her eyes, yet it was so far away.

Li Zhao was standing quietly in their courtyard at this moment, holding Su Mengyao's favorite flowers tightly in his hands. The fragrance of the flowers was rich and lasting, as if it could travel through thousands of mountains and rivers and convey his thoughts to her far away.

He looked up at the sky, his eyes flashing with tenderness and determination, as if to say: "Yao'er, no matter where you are, my heart will always be with you."

Su Mengyao sighed softly, she knew that she could not let Li Zhao down.

Although life in the palace was prosperous, it was full of intrigue, which made her feel extremely exhausted.

She longed to go back to the good old days and spend the rest of her life with Li Zhao.

She began to work hard to find a way to balance the court and love, hoping to leave more time for Li Zhao.

Whenever the trivialities of the palace were a little less busy, she could not wait to return to their courtyard and spend a short time with Li Zhao.

Although those moments were brief, they filled her heart with happiness and satisfaction. They cherished every opportunity to be together, as if they wanted to engrave each other deeply in their hearts.

But fate always strikes hard at the most unexpected moment. Just when Su Mengyao and Li Zhao were immersed in their thoughts and expectations of each other, the emperor suddenly assigned Su Mengyao an important task concerning the safety of the country.

This task was extremely difficult, requiring her to stay in the palace for a long time to handle various tedious affairs. For her and Li Zhao, this was undoubtedly an unprecedented test.

After Su Mengyao received the task, she was full of contradictions and struggles. She knew the importance of this task to the country, but she also knew that she missed and cared about Li Zhao.

She didn't know how to face this difficult choice and could only pray silently in her heart, hoping to find a way to have the best of both worlds.

After learning the news, although Li Zhao was filled with worry and reluctance, he chose to silently support Su Mengyao.

He understood Su Mengyao's difficulties and responsibilities, and knew that he could not become a burden to her.

He could only pray for her silently, hoping that she could complete the mission safely and smoothly and return to him soon.

Su Mengyao stood quietly at the end of the palace corridor, gazing at the distant horizon.

Her heart was filled with contradictions and struggles, as if an invisible force was tearing at her soul.

She knew the importance of this mission and the responsibilities she shouldered, but it also meant she would be unable to see Li Zhao for a long time, and she couldn't imagine how tormented life would be without Li Zhao.

Her hands clenched into fists, as if to bolster her resolve.

She remembered Li Zhao's affectionate gaze and the good times they had spent together. Those warm images echoed in her mind, bringing a trace of comfort to her heart.

"For the sake of the country and our future, I must be strong." She murmured to herself, with a determined light in her eyes.

At this moment, Li Zhao was anxiously waiting for news from Su Mengyao in the courtyard. He paced back and forth, his brows furrowed, his face full of worry.

When he heard the news from others, his heart instantly rose to his throat.

He was worried about Su Mengyao's safety and afraid that she would be hurt. He couldn't imagine what life would be like without Su Mengyao. It would undoubtedly be a disaster for him.

Time seemed to be particularly long at this moment, and every minute and every second seemed to be tormenting Li Zhao's heart.

He kept looking at the end of the corridor, expecting Su Mengyao to appear.

Finally, when Su Mengyao's familiar figure appeared in his sight, an inexplicable excitement surged in his heart.

He walked quickly to Su Mengyao and held her hand tightly: "Are you okay? Are you hurt?" His voice was full of concern and worry.

Su Mengyao looked at Li Zhao's anxious expression, and a wave of sadness welled up in her heart.

She knew that Li Zhao was worried about her and concerned about her. She shook her head gently, smiled and said, "Don't worry, I will be careful."

Although her voice was trembling, it was full of determination and courage. She knew that as long as Li Zhao was by her side to support her and accompany her, she would have nothing to fear.

Li Zhao looked at Su Mengyao's determined eyes, and his worries were slightly relieved.

He held Su Mengyao's hand tightly, as if to pass all his strength to her: "I will always be here waiting for you to come back."

Their eyes were tightly intertwined, and at that moment it seemed as if time stood still.

They stared at each other lovingly, as if they wanted to carve everything about each other into their hearts.

At that moment, they seemed to have returned to the good old days, supporting each other and facing the challenges of the future together.
