King Hong looked at the minister of law in front of him and so did advisor Liu.
Both of them were a bit upset at the time Fu Delun had taken to approach them. Usually, any minister that was within the city would be able to reach them in less than twenty minutes, as for the ones that were in the central district would be able to do the same in less than ten minutes.
As far as King Hong was concerned, Fu Delun was supposed to be in the ministry of Law and thus it should have taken him at most ten minutes, if not even less.
"Was Minister Fu Delun busy? It is uncommon for you to take this long." Adviser Liu took the lead this time.
Lin Mu accusing on their people had already put a bad taste in his mouth and now seeing that very same accused delaying royal summons only made him that much upset. It instead made it seem like it was the King who was actually incompetent and allowed his official to be lacking.
