Bao Xin frowned as he darted his eyes around the hall. Han Fu was not here yet which was strange.

"Excuse me. Where is the governor? We haven't seen him since we have arrived. I want to talk to him."

"We've sent our men to invite him over at the moment. This morning, he didn't attend the morning meeting because of his sickness. We still don't know if he has recovered enough to attend everyone here." Tong continued his fictional story.

"Oh, that can't be helped. If he's not well, then it's fine. He can send his representatives here or we can postpone the banquet."

Before Tong could open his mouth to give another excuse, Ju Shou walked over and bowed to Bao Xin.

"I'm sorry, I'm late. I'm Ju Shou, the deputy governor of Ye City. Our Lord is currently ill, so he couldn't attend this banquet. I beg you for your forgiveness."
