Nothing is really evident, but rather speculation only. Readers may be able to sense the lack of sympathy Claudius holds for Old Hamlet and also how he tries to move on the conversation from the King's death to another topic.

Claudius feels it necessary to explain the short time between his brother's death and his marriage to his brother's widow. From his point of view there is neither wrongdoing nor corruption in this and the line "nor have we herein barred your better wisdoms which have freely gone with this affair along" shows that most of his advisors agreed. The fact that some gossips (including Hamlet of course) were commenting on the shortness of the mourning period does not necessarily make it wrong. Apparently also Young Fortinbras held a "weak supposal of our worth", but Claudius's expeditious solution to that problem shows that he had the matter well in hand.
