Wang Daniu had hoped for a chance to see the people from Hua Country, but after waiting for a long time without even seeing a shadow of them, he felt as if something was wandering inside his chest, causing him great discomfort.
However, those feelings could only be buried in his heart, unexpressed, because Wang Daniu knew that the suspicious nature of the Emperor meant his complete trust was not guaranteed. Only after the conclusion of today's Auspicious Ceremony could Wang Daniu consider his mission fully accomplished. At that time, any bitter fruits of his actions would naturally be his to bear, and his painstaking efforts would not have been in vain.
With that thought, the melancholy in his heart dissipated like smoke.
