Your Majesty, You Can't

Chapter 161 - The Rival

Thinking that Su Nuo might bring news about He Lan's survival, Zhao Yin's lifeless eyes suddenly regained a gleam of brilliance, and with a wave of his dragon robe, he ordered without delay: "Xuan!"

Su Nuo bowed his head and followed the eunuch who led the way into the main hall. He stepped over the threshold and knelt down in front of the emperor who was sitting on a high seat. Long live long live."

"Su Huwei is flat." Zhao Yin's tone could not avoid a trace of nervousness, "You have come here to ask for an interview, but do you have any news about He Lanzhi?"

Su Nuo did not follow the young emperor's will, but knelt on the ground and remained silent.

Seeing that Su Nuo didn't say a word, Zhao Yin couldn't help frowning tightly.Even the right hand holding the handrail couldn't help but increase a bit of strength, propped up half of his body and leaned forward: "Is it?! He didn't die, did he? No one has seen his body, and neither have you." I see. So this time you came here specially to tell me that He Lanzhi might still be alive, right?"

There was silence in the imperial study room, only the sound of the two people's staggered breathing could be heard.

Zhao Yin waited anxiously for Su Nuo's response, but Su Nuo refused to raise his head and kept silently staring at the ground.

Just when Zhao Yin was about to lose his patience and was about to stand up and leave, Su Nuo, who had been silent for a long time, finally took a deep breath and slowly answered.

"Your Majesty, no one in the army has seen Lord Helan's body." Su Nuo's hoarse voice trembled slightly, "Master Helan's camp was attacked by the enemy with gunpowder...so ...that place was nothing but pieces of fried meat and dried blood."

"So this doesn't mean it's He Lanzhi!" Zhao Yin grasped the key letter from Su Nuo's words?and?彡?Xi Xi stood up abruptly as if seeing a glimmer of hope and asked, "Do you have a clue? Are you sure those corpse parts are not He Lanzhi?"

"The villain did not believe that those pieces of meat could be Lord Helan. So the villain went to that camp and confirmed who those scattered corpses were many times."

Su Nuo avoided Zhao Yin's gaze, and let down his black hair as if giving up.After choking vaguely in his throat for a long time, he uttered a word in a low voice, "But in that tent... Only Master He Lan lives alone."

The cruel reality revealed behind Su Nuo's words completely shattered Zhao Yin's hope.

Zhao Yin's thin lips trembled, and he almost lost his composure and rushed in front of Su Nuo. Regardless of the guards and eunuchs blocking him, he ruthlessly lifted Su Nuo from the ground, grabbed his collar and forced Su Nuo to look at him, staring at him. The other party's bloodshot eyes roared angrily: "Didn't you say that you swore to protect him with your life?!"

Obviously, he could easily break free from Zhao Yin's hand, but Su Nuo didn't resist at all, allowing himself to be pulled by the collar by the emperor, and forcefully pulled a wry smile from his mouth.

The emperor's deafening roar came from his ears, which made his eardrums buzz and even ache.

"How did you tell me back then! What happened to the person? What happened to the person! Why did he die!" Zhao Yin screamed at Su Nuo hysterically, his eyes turned red, and he didn't even know when his eyes burst into tears. Tears came out, "Why...don't you like him very much? Why can't you protect him..."

Su Nuo closed his eyes and shed tears, choked up and said in a low voice: "The villain is incompetent."

"It's not just incompetent, it's just trash... completely trash..."

Zhao Yin let go of Su Nuo exhaustedly, and Su Nuo, who lost his only support point, fell to the ground like discarded rotten iron.The bones hit the ground with a muffled sound, but Su Nuo didn't seem to feel any pain, there was no sound of crying out in pain, only the tears in the corners of his eyes dripped silently on the ground.

Zhao Yin wiped away the tears on his face, and when he was about to leave the imperial study room, he paused and turned his head to look at Su Nuo who was lying on the ground like a waste, staring at that figure coldly and reprimanded: " Don't show that kind of death-like gaze in my palace, stand up for me. There are many people in the world who are miserable than you, and you are not the only one who has lost someone you love."

Zhao Yin stepped out of the threshold and threw the handkerchief handed to him by the eunuch beside him to the paralyzed guard kid behind him.

"If it's a man, stand up for me."
