The most romantic little emperor

Chapter 259 Let Lady Xiao Go

The four heard this and urged him urgently, "Master, you are of noble status, you must not think of committing suicide! As long as you are alive, we are willing to die!"

"Go, go quickly, master! Don't hesitate any longer! If you don't leave, we will commit suicide in front of you."

After saying that, the four men put the knives in their hands on their necks, looking as if they were ready to die.

Their actions deeply touched Qin Hao's heart, and he felt an indescribable emotion in his heart.

He sighed softly. How could such a loyal person not be his own? What a pity.

At this moment, their defense was weak. Li Yihuan, hiding in the dark, had been paying attention to the every move of the four people. He was confident that he could kill the four people in an instant.

Opportunity is like a shooting star across the night sky, fleeting.

Li Yihuan held four throwing knives tightly in his right hand, ready for a thundering attack. At the same time, he gave Qin Hao a tacit look, indicating that it was time to act.

Qin Hao looked at him and shook his head slightly.

Lady Xiao stared at Qin Hao, with a hint of complicated emotions in her eyes. She whispered softly, "Your Highness, after I leave, they will naturally release Lord Feng. But I have a favor to ask, and I hope you can agree to it."

Qin Hao nodded slightly, motioning for her to continue.

Lady Xiao continued, "I hope that after they release Lord Feng, you can give them a quick death and not let their bodies suffer any more torture. Just let them be free, and I will feel better this way."

Although her words were gentle, they revealed an unquestionable firmness and a hint of pleading.

Qin Hao looked at her as if he saw an old friend, and they felt a sense of mutual respect.

A complex emotion flashed in his eyes, but in the end he nodded and agreed to her request.

Concubine Xiao nodded slightly, and gave the four people a few more detailed instructions. Then she took the token and slowly left the bedroom.

Before walking out of the room, she did not forget to look back and met Qin Hao's eyes.

Qin Hao stared at those clear eyes, and ripples appeared in his heart, as if he had returned to that classic moment - the scene in the TV series "The Heaven Sword and Dragon Saber" where Zhao Min looked back at Zhang Wuji.

The situation and scene are so similar, except that there is no heroic white horse, and there is a bit of indescribable sadness.

However, Miss Xiao's eyes were truly beautiful, with moving waves, bright and lively glances, smart and deep, like twinkling stars, and even prettier than Zhang Min in Hong Kong movies.

Fan Wenhai entered quietly and asked softly, "Your Highness, should we send someone to arrest her immediately?"

Qin Hao's sight was still on the direction where Lady Xiao disappeared. He shook his head slightly and uttered two words: "No need."

After a long time, he retracted his gaze, glanced at the four palace maids and eunuchs in front of him, and said in a deep voice: "You can release Lord Feng."

The four of them exchanged glances, and then tacitly moved the swords in their hands away from Feng Huaiyu's neck.

However, the next moment, they stabbed their swords into each other's bodies at the same time.

Qin Hao watched quietly everything happening in front of him. He didn't say anything to stop it. He just sighed softly in his heart, feeling a little regretful.

Li Yihuan, who was hiding in the dark, also came out and said in a deep voice: "Your Highness, these people acted too quickly. Even I couldn't stop them from killing each other in time. Please forgive me."

Qin Hao waved his hand and sighed softly: "Perhaps, death is a kind of relief for them. You don't need to blame yourself."

At this time, Fan Wenhai walked in and quickly untied the restraints on Feng Huaiyu.

After Feng Huaiyu regained his freedom, he stretched his hands and feet, then immediately knelt down in front of Qin Hao and asked for punishment.

Qin Hao personally helped Feng Huaiyu up and laughed loudly: "Feng Aiqing, what crime have you committed? On the contrary, you have accomplished a great deed."

Feng Huaiyu and the others looked at each other, confused by what Qin Hao said. They didn't know what he meant and looked at him blankly.

Qin Hao's smile deepened, and he explained softly: "When will the cycle of revenge end? Lady Xiao is obviously a descendant of the royal family of the previous dynasty, and she is not a treacherous or evil person. She is actually not wrong to seek revenge on my father and me. After all, our Qin family destroyed her country and killed many of her relatives."

"Despite this, she shouldn't vent all her hatred on my father and me, instead of reflecting deeply on the sins her elders had committed. The wheel of history will not stop because of Daliang's tyranny. Even if my Qin family does not overthrow their kingdom, it is inevitable that the Zhao family and the Li family will take their place. This is the general trend, and no one can resist it."

"However……"

Qin Hao changed the subject and continued, "The previous dynasty of Daliang had gone through two generations of emperors, and its foundation is profound. It is difficult for us to estimate how much power is hidden in secret. If we continue to fight with it, the country will fall into turmoil, foreign enemies will take the opportunity to invade, and more people will be displaced and die. Therefore, only by completely conquering its power can we resolve this dispute. And Lady Xiao is the key to solving this situation."

"So, after careful consideration, I finally decided to let her go. I hope she can put the overall situation first and take care of herself."

When Feng Huaiyu heard this, he immediately flattered him, saying, "Your Highness is so magnanimous, it is a blessing for all the people!"

Qin Hao smiled slightly and said jokingly, "Lord Feng, your being held hostage this time has become an opportunity for me to change my mindset. Fortunately, Lady Xiao showed mercy. Otherwise, even if the gods descended to earth, they would not be able to stop my determination to destroy them."

Feng Huaiyu's face turned red, and he muttered to himself, how could such an embarrassing thing as being kidnapped be said to be a good thing by the prince? Is he comforting me for Tingting's sake?

Fan Wenhai's eyes wandered over Feng Huaiyu, and he couldn't help but teasing him, "Brother Feng, this is really a blessing in disguise for you. It makes people jealous. If I had known that there would be such a good thing, I would have rushed to be a prisoner no matter what."

Feng Huaiyu curled his lips, snorted coldly, and then laughed out loud, "Haha, Brother Fan, do you really think that anyone can get such a good thing? Next time there is such an opportunity, I will definitely give it to you. Don't be so scared that your pants get wet!"

"Hey, why do you feel so deeply? Your pants must be wet! Haha, I have to touch it." Fan Wenhai continued to tease.

"Get out, you old man! You actually have such a hobby. I'll deal with you later!" Feng Huaiyu responded with a smile and scolding.

Suddenly, the atmosphere became relaxed and the previous tension disappeared.
