The most romantic little emperor

Chapter 540 The Secret of the Treasure Map

Xiao Tianyue gently leaned against Qin Hao's broad chest, feeling the imperial aura emanating from him. She immediately fell into obsession, intoxicated by this rare tranquility and intimacy.

After a moment, she raised her head slightly, and said with a soft smile in a voice as thin as a gossamer but full of affection: "Your Majesty, I firmly believe that you can do it. I would rather turn into a breeze beside you, accompany you silently, and witness the arrival of that moment with you."

In this situation, there is no need for extra words. The two people listen to each other's heartbeats and feel each other's deepest emotions.

The moonlight is as bright as water, casting a silver glow all over the ground, carving this moment of tranquility into a dream, as if time is flowing backwards at this moment.

Finally, Xiao Tianyue slowly pulled herself out of Qin Hao's arms. Her movements were full of reluctance, but also revealed a sense of gentleness and tenderness.

She spoke softly, like the gentlest whisper in the night breeze: "Your Majesty, it is late at night, you should return to the palace, so that the other sisters will not worry about you. Please rest assured, I will take good care of Wuying."

After that, she slowly took out a treasure map from the depths of her clothes, handed it to Qin Hao, and said softly: "Your Majesty, this treasure map is a gift from me. I hope it can be of some help to your grand plan."

Qin Hao took the treasure map that was filled with deep affection. His heart surged with emotion. Without saying a word, he hugged Xiao Tianyue tightly into his broad chest and kissed her lips affectionately.

At this moment, time seemed to freeze, everything around lost its color, only each other's breathing and heartbeats intertwined into the most moving melody.

Until the world was spinning and they could no longer breathe, the two reluctantly separated slowly, their eyes filled with reluctance and attachment.

Qin Hao gently stroked her silky black hair, his voice full of tenderness: "Tianyue, I will return to the palace first, but please believe that my heart is always with you, and I will never let any of you down."

"When I have free time, I will come to visit you and Wuying again."

After he finished speaking, he tightly grasped the treasure map in his hand, which seemed to still have Xiao Tianyue's faint body fragrance, and slowly turned and left, his steps revealing an unprecedented determination.

……

Stepping into the magnificent imperial palace, Qin Hao walked hurriedly, his heart unable to conceal his excitement, and went straight to the imperial study. He knew very well that the secret in his hands was enough to shock the entire court.

If he could find the treasure of the Daliang Dynasty as soon as possible, he would be more confident in the next campaign against the Liao Kingdom, and the recovery of the Sixteen Prefectures of Yanyun would be just around the corner.

After Gao Lishi and Feng Lao arrived, they bent over and stood beside Qin Hao. In an instant, they were deeply attracted by the things on the table.

"Mr. Gao, Mr. Feng, have you two ever seen such a map?" Qin Hao asked impatiently as he watched the changes in their expressions.

Gao Lishi and Feng Lao looked at each other. Without saying anything, they understood the shock in each other's hearts.

Almost at the same time, with an indescribable tacit understanding, they nodded slightly and said in unison: "The treasure map of the Daliang Dynasty?"

These few simple words exploded like thunder in the imperial study, creating ripples.

Qin Hao was overjoyed when he heard this. He didn't expect that the two of them were so knowledgeable and actually recognized this picture.

Old Feng stretched out his trembling hands and carefully picked up the two pieces of treasure maps, as if he was touching a distant and glorious history.

His eyes were as sharp as torches, not missing a single detail. After a careful inspection, a look of certainty gradually emerged in his eyes.

Then, he slowly handed the treasure map to Gao Lishi and said in a deep voice: "Your Majesty, this map is undoubtedly authentic."

After reading it, Gao Lishi nodded slightly, unable to hide his excitement, and said solemnly: "Your Majesty, these two maps are indeed the treasure maps of the Daliang Dynasty. I wonder from whom did Your Majesty get this opportunity?"

Qin Hao heard this and a happy smile appeared on his lips. His laughter was hearty and joyful: "Haha, this is a generous gift given to me by the Xiao family brothers and sisters today."

"When I first saw this picture, I felt an inexplicable sense of familiarity, but it was hard to recall it for a moment."

A gentle smile flashed across Gao Lishi's eyes, and his tone was filled with a bit of nostalgia: "Your Majesty is right, this painting is indeed deeply related to you."

"The late emperor once got a copy of this map. When you were young, you were very naughty and almost burned it. For this, the late emperor even beat you up!"

Qin Hao raised his lips to a meaningful smile, his eyes flashed with realization, and he said softly: "So that's how it is. No wonder I have a sense of déjà vu, as if I were reliving an old dream."

He turned to look at Gao Lishi standing beside him, his tone filled with anxiety and expectation: "Mr. Gao, where is the treasure map now? Come quickly and let me find it."

"Your Majesty, please wait a moment. I will get it for you." After saying that, he turned around and walked out of the hall with steady steps, leaving behind a series of steady footsteps echoing in the empty palace.

After Gao Lishi's figure completely disappeared from his sight, Qin Hao turned his gaze to Old Feng and asked in a low voice: "Old Feng, is there any movement from the Zheng family?"

Elder Feng bowed and said respectfully, "Your Majesty, I have arranged everything perfectly. The Zheng family's mansion in the capital has been monitored by the shadow guards, and every move is under control."

"I have arranged for the Jinyiwei to lead a thousand elite imperial guards to quietly set out on the road to Xingyang. In order to avoid alerting the enemy and leaking the news, I dare to suggest that we launch a thundering attack at dawn tomorrow. Your Majesty, do you think this arrangement is feasible?"

Qin Hao smiled faintly when he heard this. He waved his sleeves gently, and said in a gentle but firm tone: "Master Feng, I have always believed in your plan. Just act according to your plan. I will wait for good news in the palace."

At this moment, Gao Lishi walked in quickly, holding a brocade box made of finely carved golden nanmu wood in both hands, and said with a tone of excitement that was difficult to conceal: "Your Majesty, I am glad to have fulfilled your mission. I have found it."

Qin Hao's eyes were instantly attracted by the simple and elegant brocade box. He couldn't wait to open the box and carefully take out the map.

Afterwards, he placed this map side by side with the other two, and the three maps were slowly pieced together under the candlelight, gradually revealing their original appearance like a puzzle, but unfortunately there was still a piece missing.

After the three of them took a closer look, Qin Hao's eyes flashed with a deep light. He spoke slowly, his voice gentle but revealing a majesty that could not be ignored: "Mr. Gao, Mr. Feng, can you two see any clues from this picture?"

Hearing this, the two of them couldn't help but look at each other, with a thoughtful gleam in each other's eyes.

However, they finally shook their heads with regret. There was no doubt that the secrets hidden in this map were far more complicated than they had expected.

Seeing this, Qin Hao felt inexplicably disappointed and his interest instantly decreased a lot.
