The most romantic little emperor

Chapter 455 Zi Yan, promise me one thing, okay?

Qin Hao did not give her a chance to continue. His words were filled with an unquestionable firmness: "Aunt Su, from the moment you entered the palace and became your father's concubine, your fate has been closely linked to the royal family. You are no longer a simple member of the Su family."

"Every move you make is related to the honor, disgrace, rise and fall of the royal family. Especially now, you should put yourself in my shoes, for the sake of my Qin royal family, and for the sake of the entire country, and completely draw a clear line with the Su family, so that I won't be embarrassed to live."

"Besides, even if you don't plan for yourself, you should also think about my ninth brother. If you continue to be so stubborn, don't blame me for being rude to you."

Seeing that Qin Hao refused to listen, Su Ziyan felt bitter in her heart and could only shed tears silently.

Her tears fell silently like pearls from a broken string. She looked as if she had suffered a great injustice, the image of a completely pitiful and weak person.

Qin Hao saw Su Ziyan crying non-stop, and he couldn't help but feel annoyed. How could this woman be like this? If outsiders saw it, they might think he had done something to her!

At this moment, the voices of Feng Lao and Gao Lishi were heard outside the door, "Mr. Gao, is His Majesty in there?"

When Qin Hao heard Feng Lao's voice, he felt like he had found a savior. He quickly stood up and prepared to leave.

When Su Ziyan saw this, her heart tightened, her eyes suddenly dimmed, and a resigned expression appeared on her face.

However, just as Qin Hao was about to step out of the door, he stopped, turned around and walked to Su Ziyan.

He sighed softly and whispered to Su Ziyan, "No, your elder brother is not dead. I will arrange for you to meet him. But you must persuade him to tell the truth about everything you know. I may be lenient with those people in the Su family who are unaware of the situation."

When Su Ziyan heard what Qin Hao said, she was overjoyed and felt relieved. Tears welled up in her eyes and she finally couldn't help but let them fall.

She quickly performed a dignified and elegant palace ceremony, her voice choking with sobs and gratitude: "Your Majesty's kindness, I will never forget it, thank you so much, Your Majesty!"

Qin Hao nodded slightly, then snorted coldly and walked out of the room with big strides.

Su Ziyan followed closely behind. Although her steps were light, she followed Qin Hao closely with every step, like a shadow, never leaving him.

There was an expression of relief and ease on her face, as if a heavy burden had been lifted from her.

When Old Feng saw Qin Hao, he immediately came forward. He glanced at Su Ziyan behind Qin Hao and seemed to be hesitant to speak.

Qin Hao naturally felt Elder Feng's gaze. He tilted his head slightly and smiled softly, "Elder Feng, how is Su Zhengfang doing? Has he woken up?"

Seeing that Qin Hao did not shy away from Su Ziyan, Elder Feng nodded slightly and said respectfully: "Your Majesty, Su Zhengfang has been rescued."

"However, Dr. Sun warned me that he may not live long due to his advanced age and the severe injuries he suffered. We should interrogate him as soon as possible to avoid missing the opportunity."

Upon hearing this, Qin Hao nodded slightly, followed Feng Lao's steps, and walked into the place where Su Zhengfang was being treated.

He turned to Su Ziyan and repeatedly warned her, "Aunt Su, you need to persuade your elder brother and make him understand the importance of confessing and being lenient. Go, I will wait for your good news here."

After hearing what Qin Hao said, Su Ziyan felt heavy in her heart, but she still nodded slightly to show that she accepted the order.

Then she walked lightly to the door, slowly pushed it open and walked in.

At this time, Doctor Sun and the two imperial doctors had already bandaged Su Zhengfang's injuries.

Su Zhengfang has also woken up, but his condition is not as stable as before.

"His Majesty has specially asked me to come here to question you. You may leave for now." Su Ziyan's voice was soft but majestic as she gave the order indifferently.

Doctor Sun specifically explained this to Su Ziyan, and then he respectfully reminded her, "Madam Dowager, we are waiting outside the door. If there is any situation, please call us at any time."

Su Ziyan nodded slightly and agreed.

Doctor Sun and the two imperial physicians then slowly retreated and gently closed the door.

When Su Zhengfang heard his sister's voice, a warm current surged in his heart. He struggled to sit up, but his body was too badly injured and his movements seemed a little clumsy.

Seeing this, Su Ziyan hurried forward, pushed him back onto the bed, and gently soothed him, "Brother, just lie down and don't force yourself."

Looking at his sister's familiar face, Su Zhengfang felt a surge of emotion in his heart. He struggled for a moment and finally chose to give up.

Su Zhengfang frowned, his voice carrying a trace of grief that was difficult to conceal: "Did you volunteer to go find the little emperor, or did he force you to come?"

Su Ziyan lowered her eyelids slightly, her eyes seemed to be filled with myriad emotions, but she gently shook her head, her voice thin as a thread, but with a hint of firmness: "Brother, you worry too much, it was me who took the initiative to find His Majesty. I asked him to leave a way out for the Su family. When I learned that you were still alive, I couldn't help but want to come and see you."

Su Zhengfang stared at his sister, his eyes seemed to be able to see through all disguises. He asked in a deep voice: "The little emperor, he didn't threaten you with this, or force you to do anything, right?"

Although his voice was cold, it concealed deep concern and worry for his sister.

Su Ziyan shook her head slightly and told the truth: "His Majesty did not force me to do anything. He just hoped that I could try my best to persuade you and tell him everything you know."

She looked at Su Zhengfang with pleading eyes: "Brother, please listen to my advice. Tell His Majesty everything you know without reservation. I will plead for those innocent members of the Su family again. Perhaps His Majesty will really leave them a way out."

Su Zhengfang was silent for a long time, as if he was weighing the pros and cons and making a choice.

Finally, he spoke slowly, his voice revealing endless fatigue and helplessness: "Zi Yan, I know that I have committed serious sins and it is not a pity to die. From now on, the rise and fall of the Su family will all be left to you. Promise me one thing, okay?"

Su Ziyan nodded hurriedly, tears welling up in her eyes: "Brother, you said, no matter what, I will do my best."

Su Zhengfang raised his only remaining hand and tightly held Su Ziyan's soft and boneless hand. His eyes flashed with complex emotions, including regret for the past and expectations for the future.

He took a deep breath, his voice a little hoarse: "Zi Yan, it's not unfair that Big Brother lost to the Emperor. Qin Hao knows how to be patient and can judge the situation. He has mastered the art of being an emperor to perfection."

"There are stars and oceans in his eyes, and the people of the world in his heart. He has the potential to be the greatest emperor of all time. In the future, no one in this world will be his rival."

Su Ziyan's eyes flashed with tears. She gently patted the back of Su Zhengfang's hand and choked with sobs, "Brother, we were all blinded by momentary desires. We thought we could control everything, but we forgot who the real master of this world is."

"But what's the point of saying this now?"
