"Your Majesty, please calm your anger."
For a moment, everyone turned to look at Duke Lin, thinking he had stepped forward to play the part of the good cop in coordination with Emperor Li.
Unexpectedly, after Duke Lin picked up a memorial from the ground and glanced at it, his expression froze as if he had just woken up, and he sighed helplessly.
"His Majesty had already decreed yesterday that anyone spreading rumors would be killed without exception."
As an Imperial Censor, it's one thing to report rumors, but unfortunately, this memorial speaks with certainty, extremely detailed, as if there were some ironclad proof.
As an official of the court, to openly fabricate rumors is truly, deserving of death."
Duke Lin shook his head and retreated, having set the tone firmly.
