Song Wen and Song Wu helped Minister Chen into the office.
Inside the office, Song Wen complained, "Minister Chen, how can you endure Lin Chuan like this?"
"Patience is crucial for great plans." Minister Chen, lying back in his chair, said helplessly, "You all know how tricky that boy Lin Chuan is. Who would dare to offend him?"
"But you can't put up with it like this, can you?" Song Wu said through clenched teeth, "If Lin Chuan has made a mistake, he should be punished according to the rules and regulations."
"That's easy to say." Minister Chen sneered, "Vice Secretary Song has a much higher position than I do, and he also has significant power. Lin Chuan messed up big time this time, but what was the final outcome? Nothing at all. I'm just the weakest among all the ministers; what do you expect me to do?"
