Chapter 712: Treasonous Confirmation (1/2)
Hearing Lin Mu's question, King Hong was confused.
”I haven't had any official actions in the past three months and I have certainly not given any permission to Minster Fu Delun.” King Hong stated.
”I see. Then I wonder why Mister Fu Delun ordered some records to be moved to the royal repository?” Lin Mu asked again.
King Hong and adviser Liu narrowed their eyes as they looked at Lin Mu.
”This is absolutely wrong your majesty. I have never done such a thing.” Fu Delun lied right away.
Lin Mu could feel the nervousness of the man and the faint tremble of his legs rather easily.
”Oh, is that so minster Fu Delun? Then King Hong should be fine with us checking the royal repository, shouldn't he?” Lin Mu questioned further.
”This…” Fu Delun was now stuck, he didn't know how to proceed.
It was now that he suddenly had an idea.
”You are lying, there are no such records in the royal repository. After all, they have not been accessed since the king began preparing for his breakthrough.” Fu Delun stated.
”Like I said, if King Hong or adviser Liu checks it, I believe we will find what are facts and what is fiction.” Lin Mu replied calmly.
King Hong deliberated on it a bit and seemed to be hesitating. But then he took a deep breath and looked at his uncle.
”Please go and check the Royal repository adviser Liu.” King Hong ordered.
”At once, your majesty.” Adviser Liu said.
And just as he said this, it happened.
~BOOM~
Fu Delun threw out an explosive talisman that blasted the flooring and the chairs around, which knocked up a lot of smoke and dust.
”Got you…” Lin Mu said as he disappeared the next instant.
~KACHA~KACHA~KACHA~
”HNGMPGF!!!!” The sounds of multiple things cracking could be heard along with a muffled cry.
”YOUR MAJESTY!” Adviser Liu flew to the protection of King Hong while Hua San and Hua Wu also became alert.
They looked for Lin Mu but found him to be missing.
”What?” Hua San suddenly detected something with his spirit sense hidden behind the smoke.
