Mother

Hearing his words, the Officials finally remembered the engagement agreement.

They couldn't help but stare at the sacred-looking woman, thinking that being an Emperor was really something.

However, they were a little surprised. This feels sudden because it hasn't been talked about in a long time.

Several Officials started whispering to each other, "The Prime Minister's control over the capital is now very stable, there must be a reason he sent his daughter to the Emperor... Otherwise, it is better to send his daughter to another Family."

"Oh, I suddenly remembered, the previous Emperor also made engagement agreements with the Villarreal Family and the Stewart Family," said another official.

"Mm, if there's anything to worry the Prime Minister, it's only the daughter of the Villarreal Family... I'm sure her family can't control her, — if she agrees to be engaged to the Emperor, then it must be of her own volition."

"How fortunate our Emperor is, to have two famous beauties as his wife, even if his power is decreasing, he is still living like in Heaven," said an Assistant Official.

Hearing his words, the Officials looked at each other.

No one disputed what he said.

An Older Official sighed. "As long as one holds the position of Emperor, there is no worldly pleasure that he cannot obtain no matter how small his power is."

...

Meanwhile, General Martin suddenly leapt forward, his eyes turning extremely cold.

"Wallace, what does this mean? Are you tricking me?" he asked in a loud voice, surprising everyone.

The emperor hadn't even spoken yet but he immediately jumped forward.

Some people were immediately frightened by his actions.

He was indeed strong, the moment his aura slightly emitted from his body, the air instantly became somewhat chilly.

Ciel couldn't help but think about some of the Generals in the Dynasty War Games he had played. He felt this general was like the general in those games.

Even so, the Prime Minister was still calm. He replied, "Martin, nothing is absolute in the world even if everything is written on paper. And we don't even have such an agreement."

"You…" General Martin took a step forward but stopped there.

He is strong but in the end this is the capital and the Prime Minister has more power.

"I won't forget this…" General Martin finally snorted before walking away with his Soldiers.

The situation calmed down very quickly, people were more interested in this engagement.

The gaze immediately turned to the Young Emperor, Ciel Clawesen.

The latter smiled, he said, "Mr Wallace and Miss Wallace, please come in, let's talk this inside!"

But after saying that, he didn't go straight in, he waited for the Prime Minister first.

Maybe that's a bit inappropriate, but usually he's always like that because of the Prime Minister's pressure. Ciel had to stay like that for a while.

Of course, if we looked further at where this would be the start for the two families to unite, staying waiting like this could be considered a courtesy to the other party.

The Prime Minister immediately stepped towards the palace, followed by Zara who walked slightly behind him.

The two Ministers and Officials looked at each other, seeing that there was no order that they were barred from entering, they eventually also followed.

When the Prime Minister arrived in front of Ciel, Ciel's gaze once again met Zara's, they were only a few steps away now.

Ciel could clearly smell the fragrance of her body.

When looking at her up close, Ciel realized how beautiful she was.

Each strand of her hair is like a strand of silk, you can feel its softness just by looking at it while her eyelashes are so tapering and neat that her blinks seem structured.

Her long neck was completely white and clean, even showing elegance.

After a moment of staring at each other, she nodded lightly but said nothing.

Only, Ciel felt like the eastern woman by her side was feeling uncomfortable.

Who knows what she's thinking, Ciel doesn't care about a maid either.

Just as Ciel was about to step into the palace, the sound of footsteps suddenly resounded from within.

It was quite a shock to everyone including Ciel.

He recognized the sound of footsteps very clearly.

His mother...
