Emperor Yue, who was sitting in frustration as the people below him argued, slowly sat up straight when he heard these words.
The other ministers looked at each other in mutual helplessness.
Did Lord Lin, despite being home-bound, also hear these rumors and ponder them day and night?
And he even gave thought to the weapons' whereabouts?
This was somewhat heartening, yet it also left a somewhat uncomfortable feeling.
Lin Hongyuan, seeing Emperor Yue's reaction, felt somewhat reassured.
Lin Mu reported earlier that His Majesty did not seem overly anxious about the loss of weapons. Lin Hongyuan thought it was all pretense by Emperor Yue who, considering the seriousness of the matter, must be extremely anxious. Otherwise, he would not have let these people argue day after day.
Curiously, aside from arguing, these people could not provide a plausible explanation.
Now, Emperor Yue sat upright, his face full of concern: "Lord Lin, how is your health now?"
