Chương 404: 404 Start Your Performance_1

Han Zhao hurriedly ceased his actions and responded, bowing, "I-I, your servant, have no idea!"

"Keep grinding the ink, there's no need to be so nervous. It's only a little harmless chatter between us."

"Yes!" Han Zhao rose to his feet.

"Su Luo isn't really one for caution, but as I see it, her heart is true to Jiang Shu."

"Your Majesty sees truly, I see it as well!"

"She's not entirely without intelligence. Her husband is escorting the weapons, why would spreading rumors about him bring her any benefit?"

Han Zhao chimed in, "Your Majesty, your analysis is correct!"

"So, who do you believe leaked this incident and why instill such fear in the people?"

Han Zhao continued his flattery, "Your wisdom is truly exceptional, Your Majesty!"

Emperor Yue huffed in displeasure. Aware of his mistake, Han Zhao was left awkwardly holding the ink stick. Swallowing hard, he realized he needed to give a clear explanation, otherwise, this matter would not be easily resolved.
