After hearing that, his expression remained stoic. After he placed the cup on the table, he said, "Got it."
The secret guard bowed slightly and said, "Then do you need me to send people to suppress the rumors?"
Ye Qingxuan seemed to have thought of something and chuckled softly. "There isn't a need. Someone will naturally take care of it."
The guard didn't know what he meant and didn't probe further after hearing his instructions. He nodded before he retreated. In an instant, he disappeared from the room.

Ye Qingxuan stopped in his tracks and smiled. "Lord Xia, what advice do you have for me?"
