After Mu Liang left, Nalan Tianzuo looked into the darkness. Qing'er stepped out, his eyes hesitated for a moment, then walked up behind him and said softly,
"Cousin, are you...too good to her?" Qing'er originally wanted to say that she was too indulgent, but after thinking about it, she felt that the word indulgence was really inappropriate, so she changed the question to another way.
Nalan Tianzuo came back to his senses, bent down and picked up the white jade hairpin that was broken into two pieces on the ground, handed the white jade hairpin to Qing'er, and said,
"Go back and find someone from Sanssouci Palace to re-glue it together. There won't be any trace of breakage."
"Yes." Qing'er took it and carefully placed it in her arms, but her eyes were full of confusion and doubts.
"Cousin, you are really good to her." This is not a question, it is a completely affirmative tone. She has followed Nalan Tianzuo as a follower since she was a child, and has always treated him as her brother, but Nalan Tianzuo has never been seen.
Lan Tianzuo cared as much about her as Nalan Muliang, even indulgently
Nalan Tianzuo's expression at this moment has returned to calmness and calmness. He is Nalan Tianzuo who belongs to the court. He is elegant and restrained, and contains great wisdom and calmness.
The majestic wind of the dark night blew up a corner of his purple-gold robe, drawing a majestic arc in the night.
After sighing, Nalan Tianzuo turned around and stood with his hands behind his back. There was a melancholy in his back that Qing'er couldn't see through.
"Qing'er, go and sort out all the information about Nalan Muliang that the spies of Wuyou Palace have found out in the past ten years and give it to me for review as soon as possible. It will be ready and handed over to me tonight."
"...Yes" Qing'er hesitated for a moment, then nodded.
"Cousin, after the hairpin is glued, do you still want to return it to her?" Qing'er felt that the hairpin was like this, and Nalan Muliang's attitude towards him was obviously unwelcome. If it was glued,
, and it’s impossible to return it to her. Since I can’t return it, why stick to it? What kind of treasure does Sanssou Palace not have? This white jade hairpin is just an ordinary thing, how can it compare with the fine mutton-fat white jade?
Nalan Tianzuo lowered his eyes and said softly,
"It's glued, can't I keep it?"
"Ah? Keep this rag? Cousin, it's not like you don't know the goods. These are just ordinary white jade hairpins. There are a lot of them in the market!" Qing'er's face was full of surprise and confusion.
Nalan Tianzuo narrowed his eyes slightly, and a sharp anger flashed in his eyes when he looked at Qing'er.
"Tattered? Haha... Once upon a time, wasn't she, Nalan Muliang, a slave that Yelv Zongxiao regarded as worse than a bed-warming concubine? But now, it seems that Yelu Zongxiao doesn't even want Princess Yufu, and Du Du wants
She...you still dare to say that her things are rags? I think you are asking for a beating!"
Nalan Tianzuo's words sounded like a joke, but his tone was truly cold and cold, especially the look in his eyes that revealed a level of protection that Qing'er was unfamiliar with!
"Cousin, I am your cousin, but she is your biological sister! We are related by blood, but when you talk about her, why does it make me feel like you are talking about the woman you like? You are brother and sister!
"
Qing'er plucked up the courage to speak and looked at Nalan Tianzuo carefully.
The expression on Nalan Tianzuo's face remained unchanged, but his eyes became deeper.
"What if I just like her!" Nalan Tianzuo's tone was so firm that Qing'er was shocked.
"Absolutely not! Cousin, this is against ethics..."
"Is the ethics of the world as good as the ugly human heart? As long as we truly love each other, why should we care about whether we are brothers or sisters? I don't know how much cleaner feelings are than power and ambition! As long as she can accept it, even if we are brothers and sisters, I will be with her regardless of the world's eyes.
I can't tell you how I feel about Qing'er when we are together, but there is no way to replace the feeling of brother and sister! So, in my heart, I will never admit that she is my sister!"
After Nalan Tianzuo finished speaking, he ducked out of the woods, but his steps were a little deeper than when he came.
In the past ten years, he would receive brochures about the General's Mansion from spies almost every day. At the beginning of the period, he would take a look at the description in it of how Nalan Muliang was bullied by other ladies or bullied by his own sister.
, later, every time he turned to her page in the book, he lost interest and flipped through it. Anyway, it was just an old trick of pouring cold water on, tearing off clothes and slapping someone in the face.
In the past few years, he has not even read the brochures of the General's Mansion. As long as there is no abnormal behavior, it is the same whether he reads it or not.
It seems that even if there is no such person as Nalan Muliang in the General's Mansion, it is normal, so now she will hate... and also hate him, a person who never goes back all year round.
He should know better than anyone that it would be dangerous to keep her by his side for a moment longer, but he acquiesces that this danger exists at any time!
Thinking of the way Qing'er looked at him just now, Nalan Tianzuo felt that he was crazy...
He actually wants to be with Nalan Muliang regardless of the relationship between brother and sister...
But when you meet that little woman, even if you are crazy, you will go crazy all the way.
…
Late at night, everything is quiet, but the palace cannot be peaceful tonight
The Emperor of Liao issued three secret orders in succession for His Highness Yelv Zongxiao to enter the palace, but there was no movement from Yelu Zongxiao. The Queen and the Eight Sage Kings had been waiting for a long time. The Emperor of Liao couldn't stand it. When he went to urge him again, he heard that Yelu Zongxiao had been waiting for a long time.
Mingyue, the first bodyguard around Zong Xiao, was actually beaten into silence by him! And the twelve killers of Phantom Wuhen appeared in Kyoto at the same time.
Emperor Liao's expression changed slightly, and he was still shocked when he heard the report from his chamberlain that King Tuo Bokun and Prime Minister Nalan Tianzuo of Liao were outside the palace asking for an audience!
The Liao Emperor and the Eight Sage Kings looked at each other, and for a moment they were at a loss as to why Tuobo Kun and Nalan Tian were here.
However, there was one person who rushed into the main hall ahead of Tuo Bokun and Nalan Tianzuo. As soon as he entered, he cried and cried, running towards the Liao Emperor with snot and tears.
This person is none other than Concubine Zhao, who suffered a loss at the Royal Academy!
In the middle of crying, Concubine Zhao suddenly looked up and saw the Eight Sages and the Queen sitting there. Concubine Zhao's face changed, she took two steps forward and fell at the feet of Emperor Liao, sobbing.
"Your Majesty! You can't listen to some people's nonsense! She is the evil one who complained first! Your Majesty, you must listen to my concubine. I am the one who was unjustly accused!"
Concubine Zhao whimpered and cried, but when she raised her head, she saw the queen with a look of contempt and pride on her face, while the Eight Wise Kings suppressed their anger and had a frozen face. Only Emperor Liao looked calm. He could not tell his happiness or anger, nor could he guess.
Who is he thinking about at the moment?
Seeing that Emperor Liao didn't speak, Concubine Zhao wanted to cry a few more words, but suddenly she felt a chill coming from behind her. Concubine Zhao hurriedly turned around and saw Tuobo Kun in a black and gold robe and Na in a purple and gold official uniform.
Lan Tianzuo walked into the hall at the same time
The expressions on the two of them's faces... were frighteningly cold and calm.
