Chapter 1179 Did he say something wrong?
That was the seat he prepared for her. He originally wanted them to sit in the same seat. Even if she was just watching the ceremony, he would be satisfied.
But she wasn't here.
But at this time during the ceremony, as the emperor, he could not turn around and violate the etiquette.
Empress Liu, who was beside him, was dignified and beautiful. She sensed the change in Mu Jin's mood and said in a voice that only the two of them could hear:
"Your Majesty, there is no need to be anxious. Once you reach a higher level, you can turn back."
She knew what he was thinking. After all, everyone in the capital had known the emperor's thoughts for a long time, and she was no exception.
Even though the Liu family was once just an inconspicuous small family, and gradually climbed up after only the Yun family was left among the four major families, she still knew these things.
But she had no regrets at all about marrying into the royal family and becoming the queen.
As the eldest daughter of the Liu family, she had long forgotten her feelings. It didn't matter that she couldn't marry the man she liked. What mattered was to fight for development opportunities for the Liu family.
Entering the royal family is the Liu family's only chance to climb up now.
Although the best chance is to marry the eldest son of the Yun family, she knows it is impossible. However, if she enters the royal family, she will have a better chance to establish a good relationship with the Yun family.
If the Yun family takes a fancy to them, the Liu family's development will be just around the corner.
Mu Jin naturally knew what Empress Liu was thinking. The two of them were tacitly aware of this matter because they both had someone they loved but could not have, and they were together only for the sake of profit.
He whispered, "Okay."
The two of them climbed up slowly. The higher they went, the colder the air seemed, and Mu Jin's heart became heavier.
Until the last moment, he stood on the high platform, with the prosperous and noble Dragon Palace and Dragon Throne in front of him, and the civil and military officials paying homage behind him.
The emperor and empress joined hands and turned together.
Mu Jin's gaze was almost accurately fixed on the white shadow. She was standing with her eyes covered with white silk, so he couldn't see her eyes, but he could feel that her emotions were not fluctuating.
A hint of bitterness flashed through my heart.
What was he still counting on at this moment...
The ceremonial officer waved his whip and all the officials knelt down to pay homage, but the Yun family, headed by Yun Guiyue, just nodded slightly to show their respect.
Mu Jin's eyes never left.
At such a time, even if she just stood like him, even if she was not standing shoulder to shoulder with him, he would be very satisfied.
He should be content.
"Stand up—"
…
After the ceremony, everyone stayed in the palace for dinner.
The emperor and the empress were changing their clothes and had not yet arrived at the dinner, so all the ministers gathered around the Yun family, especially Yun Guiyue, Yun Ke and Yun Wang.
After all, these three are the people with the most say in the Yun family.
However, some people started to have other thoughts while trying to climb up the ladder, especially when they saw the appearance of Yun Guiyue and Yun Yuhen, there was always an idea that lingered in their minds.
"Um... My son is still unmarried. I wonder if there's a chance for him to get to know Miss Yun?"
Yun Ke's eyes turned cold in an instant, and he looked up at the person who spoke with some hostility.
Li Yu glanced at him, and the lack of expression was the biggest expression.
Even Yun Yuhen, who was always gentle and patient, had a dark look in his eyes.
The person who was speaking suddenly became nervous.
Did he say something wrong?
