Cheng was eagerly awaiting the Taishogun to speak, you could not notice the impatience on him for he was masking it well. He noticed a Chrysantemum sister in the opposite corner of the hall. She was sitting there alone, observing...He thought that she was not like the others, perhaps she aswell did not care for big speaches, perhaps they were alike...
Cheng glanced at her from the shadows and quickly turned his attention back to the Taishogun, for he was about to speak. He listened carefully and when he heard that Hirosho Horatami was now a Daimyo, something resembeling a smile showed on his face.
"He deserves it" Cheng thought to himself,
"You have showed great honor to everyone my brother..."
Cheng would never say these words out loud, for he beleives he does not even deserve to speak to Horatami-san. He heard of the new Roju's aswell, he was proud of his brethren. Everone was happy, everyone was smiling...so was Cheng, but he did not show it. He glanced around the hall one more time before he leaned back into the shadows.
