"It's best that Eunuch Cao doesn't know about this matter."
"Yes, Your Majesty is correct."
Cao Zhengxian quickly agreed.
"How is the task I previously assigned to you?"
"Which matter does Your Majesty refer to?"
Cao Zhengxian was a bit confused, as Jingtai had instructed him on many matters, and with such a vague question, he couldn't immediately figure out which task was being referred to.
Jingtai snorted lightly and pointed to the scroll on the table.
Only then did Cao Zhengxian realize, and he quickly replied,
"Your Majesty, the whereabouts of the painter Wu Daozi have been confirmed to be hidden in Shuzhou. This old minister is intensifying the search and believes it won't be long before he is found."
Jingtai nodded slightly,
"This fellow is not simple. There is something in his possession that's extremely important to me. I will give you another half year. If he is not found, don't blame me for being unmerciful."
"Yes, I follow Your Majesty's orders."
