it is the kings right that the conversation should not be repeated to him twice even if a long time has passed between them and days have passed unless the king mentions it. if he mentions it then it is his permission to repeat it.
ومن حق الملك أن لا يعاد عليه الحديث مرتين، وإن طال بينهما الدهر، وغبرت بينهما الأيام؛ إلا أن يذكره الملك؛ فإن ذكره، فهو إذن منه في إعادته.
