"Everyone remember, everything you see today must not be spoken of, understood?"
Everyone nodded in agreement. Some people didn't understand why this was necessary, but some had already guessed the reason.
"If any information leaks, no matter who is responsible, it will be treated as treason."
This immediately made the previously indifferent nobles serious. Treason is one of the gravest charges. Once labeled as such, not only would the individual die, but even the family might not survive.
Seeing everyone like this, Balola nodded in satisfaction, and then proceeded to reward Karan.
However, Karan was Zhao Guang's subordinate, and since Zhao Guang's territory wasn't divided or granted a title, Balola couldn't overstep his authority. There was no choice; under the feudal system, even the King couldn't bypass a Lord to reward the Lord's subordinates.
With Balola's limitations, it could be ensured that no one would leak the information in the short term.
