The most romantic little emperor

Chapter 537 Xiao Tianyang presents a treasure map

After finishing the business, Qin Hao's eyes were deep and gentle, and he slowly expressed his sincerity to Xiao Wuliang and Xiao Tianyang: "My two beloved ministers, the years have passed, and your Xiao family has gone through hardships and displacements. Some of the clansmen are still wandering around among the people."

"My heart is all in this. I am willing to help your family reunite, so that those bloodlines scattered among the people can finally find peace and return to their homeland."

"From now on, the mission of revitalizing the Xiao family will fall on the shoulders of the two of you. If there are young people in your family who are ambitious, care about their country, and are eager to serve the court, I will open the door to convenience, entrust them with important tasks, and work together to create a prosperous world."

"They are indifferent to fame and gain and have no intention of pursuing a career in politics. I will also properly arrange for their care and ensure that they will have enough food and clothing for the rest of their lives. This is a testimony to the deep friendship between the Qin and Xiao families, and it is also my compensation to your Xiao family. Is that okay?"

His words revealed unquestionable firmness and warmth, which made Xiao Wuliang and Xiao Tianyang feel warm in their hearts and their gratitude was beyond words.

The two looked at each other, then knelt on the ground, their foreheads lightly touching the cold ground, with trembling gratitude in their voices: "Your Majesty's grace is so great that we, the ministers, would be unable to repay you even if we were to be crushed to pieces. We are willing to swear allegiance to Your Majesty until death, live up to your trust, and build the glory of our dynasty together!"

Qin Hao hurried forward, gently lifted them up with both hands, and raised them up with a warm smile on his face. His hearty voice echoed in the palace: "From now on, we are a family that shares honor and disgrace."

"Privately, please skip these red tapes. This is my special grace for you, so don't feel constrained."

When the two heard this, there was a flash of excitement in their eyes.

Xiao Tianyang could hardly hide his joy as he slowly took out an old half-map from deep within his sleeves and presented it with both hands.

At this moment, his tone was more solemn than ever before: "Your Majesty's grace is so great that I am deeply grateful and cannot express it in words. This map is the treasure map of the Daliang Dynasty left by my father. I am now presenting it to Your Majesty and hope to contribute to Your Majesty's grand plan."

"Treasure Map?"

Qin Hao took the small piece of yellowed map, with a flash of surprise and curiosity in his eyes. He stroked the mottled texture carefully and whispered: "Could it be that the legendary treasure is really true..."

As he spoke, he seemed to be able to see through the thin pages of paper and glimpse a dusty history and endless wealth.

Xiao Tianyang nodded and whispered, his voice as gentle as jade: "Your Majesty, it is true, but this map is not one, but divided into four. Only when the four maps are combined into one can we form a complete treasure map and find the treasure of our Daliang royal family."

"Wait, when my brother-in-law said this, I felt a sense of déjà vu."

Qin Hao suddenly interrupted Xiao Tianyang, with a look of doubt on his face, frowning and thinking hard, "This feeling is like reliving an old dream. Could it be that I have an indissoluble bond with this picture in my memory?"

Seeing this, Xiao Tianyang quickly took over the conversation, with a hint of speculation in his tone: "Your Majesty is right. Perhaps a map has fallen into the hands of your royal family."

Qin Hao nodded slightly, a hint of confusion flashed across his brows. The outline of the ancient map was vague and distant in his mind, as if it was deeply buried by the dust of time. No matter how hard he thought about it, he could not remember a single word about it.

However, Su Zhengfang's last whisper before his death, like an echo in a valley, echoed clearly in his ears.

Back then, the Mu family accidentally obtained a mysterious map, but before they could present it to the emperor, they were brutally killed, and along with it, the secret of the map was also lost.

However, Mu Wenxiu's brother Mu Wenyuan was rescued by a mysterious person during the massacre. Perhaps if we find him, we can know the whereabouts of the treasure map.

"Well, that is indeed possible." Qin Hao pondered for a moment, with an imperceptible hint of helplessness and relief in his voice.

He secretly decided in his heart to go back and ask Feng Lao or Gao Lishi, perhaps they knew the whereabouts of the treasure map.

So, he gently put this thought aside, refocused his eyes on the present, and said to Xiao Tianyang, "Brother-in-law, please continue. I am all ears!"

Xiao Tianyang raised a playful smile, which was full of deep meaning. He said calmly, "Your Majesty, there is another treasure map. Do you know who has it?"

"Huh? My brother-in-law is secretly hiding the clue to another treasure map? Tell me in detail." Qin Hao's eyes were shining with joy that was hard to conceal, and his tone was full of urgency and anticipation.

It has to be said that what happened today was beyond Qin Hao's expectations. Not only did he unexpectedly receive a treasure map from Xiao Tianyang, but the whereabouts of another treasure map would also be revealed soon.

This double surprise caused waves of emotion in Qin Hao's heart, and he could hardly hide his excitement, even though he was the emperor.

Xiao Tianyang leisurely picked up the exquisite teacup on the table, took a sip of tea, and the tea fragrance wafted in the air.

His words were like morning bells and evening drums. Although they were not earth-shattering, they were enough to shake people's hearts: "Your Majesty, don't worry. In fact, the treasure map is in the hands of my extremely intelligent sister."

Qin Hao heard this, a hint of surprise flashed in his eyes, and he said excitedly: "Oh? So, you two brothers and sisters actually each hold one, this fate is really wonderful."

Xiao Tianyang nodded gently, his laughter was filled with cunning and doting: "This humble minister, just regard it as a dowry from me as a brother to Tianyue. As for the one in her hand, if Your Majesty wants to get it, I'm afraid you will have to spend more time and effort!"

"Okay, that's great." Qin Hao laughed, his voice full of joy.

At this moment, a breeze carrying a faint fragrance drifted in from outside the door, accompanied by a gentle question, gently brushing past my ears: "What can make your majesty so happy? I can feel your joyful laughter across the courtyard wall."

Qin Hao recognized the woman as soon as he heard the voice, and his heart was instantly moved. He didn't need to look any further to know who the person was.

He quickly stood up, with a bit of urgency in his steps, and walked forward to greet her, saying softly: "Tianyue, you are back so soon. Tell me quickly, how is Wuying?"

Xiao Tianyue stepped into the hall with light steps, as if walking on the moon, with a bit of playfulness and pretended sorrow on his face.

She opened her red lips slightly, her words were full of teasing and coquettishness: "Hmph, Your Majesty is thinking about another woman in front of me, which makes me so sad!"

"You really have forgotten the old one because you have a new one. What's more, I have not officially become your Majesty's bedmate yet. I don't even dare to be called an 'old one'."

After she finished speaking, her eyes moved and a faint smile appeared on the corners of her mouth, revealing her girlish cuteness while retaining the dignity of a lady from a noble family, instantly making the hall more warm and lively.
