Rebirth of the scholarly lady

Chapter 409 Breaking Through the Threshold
Tuoba Lian has been standing by the side all the time, he is well versed in people's hearts and carefully observes every visitor.

Nan Surou successfully hid her emotions, but the queen did not.

Seeing the queen's face, Tuoba Lian burst into anger from the bottom of his heart, and his eyes full of hatred pierced Nan Surou who was behind the queen.

Looking at the unconscious mother and concubine, Tuoba Lian didn't shed a single tear, he couldn't cry anymore, he just felt something tightly blocked in his chest, he especially remembered Hua Guifei's order before she fell into a coma: take Go down to Nam Su Rou!
Although Tuoba Lian hated to the extreme, he tried his best to hide his anger.

At the beginning, when Concubine Hua Gui seriously proposed this strategy, Tuoba Lian did not take it seriously, but now seeing Concubine Hua lying there with a pale complexion, he realized that what Concubine Hua Gui asked for was very important to him. , is not so easy to do.

Only then did he realize that Nan Surou was not just a little girl to him, she was a demon, a monster.

The queen has been pretending to show sadness and concern, but she can't hide the deep resentment in her eyes. Her eyes clearly reveal her inner thoughts: you stinky woman, why are you still alive!
The queen's emotions were a little exposed, Nan Surou suddenly reached out to hold the queen's arm, and then pulled the queen out of the hatred fantasy.

Looking back at Nan Surou's false mask of concern and innocence, the queen instantly understood something, restrained her emotions, she glanced sideways, and saw Tuoba Lian looking at her angrily, the full hatred was almost full overflow.

The queen quickly realized what Nan Surou was trying to pull her back just now. Tuoba Lian seemed to be indisputable, but in fact he was plotting secretly. His mother concubine was Hua Guifei. The queen smiled coldly, looked away indifferently, and continued to put on a show.

Nan Surou lowered her eyes, and she could see that although the queen pretended not to care, her slightly trembling shoulders told Nan Surou that she was very depressed and palpitating. The witchcraft doll prepared by Concubine Hua Gui was not found, but Concubine Hua Gui was planted in it. To say that this matter has nothing to do with the queen, Tuoba Lian would probably not believe it. That was a real hassle.

Concubine Huagui was unconscious, and the emperor spared her the punishment of entering the ancestral hall and thinking about her mistakes. No matter what, she couldn't be a criminal concubine. People can only say that she is generous, virtuous and fair, but no one knows that the reason why Concubine Hua Gui is so miserable is the queen's masterpiece.

The only ones who doubted this were Tuoba Lian and Concubine Zhang De.

Concubine Zhang De wanted to plot against Concubine Lian, she had a ghost in her heart, so she didn't dare to act rashly.

But Tuoba Lian specially sent someone to investigate that matter, but since the empress dared to do it, she would naturally not leave any evidence. Most importantly, Concubine Hua Guifei ate the newborn baby herself, this cannot be denied.

Concubine Hua Gui has been bedridden with illness, real or fake, Tuoba Lian was anxious, because the empress would not stop there, the empress would never let their mother and child go.

But Ronghua Palace and Tuoba Lian are already more defensive than before, it is impossible for Nan Surou to attack at this time.

Because of the messy things that happened in the harem, the following Mid-Autumn Festival, the palace banquet was uneventful. Although all the concubines had smiles on their faces, there was not much joy in their eyes. The empress did not overthrow Concubine Hua , feeling very depressed, always wanting to punish the palace servants with the wrong punishment, if Nan Surou hadn't stopped it in time, I'm afraid the queen's reputation behind her back would be blackened.

The natural disaster has passed, the plague has gradually subsided, and the hearts of the people have been appeased. The people's sentiments have made great contributions to clearing up the officialdom, promoting a group of good officials, and punishing some corrupt officials. Now, the Right Prime Minister's Mansion is busy. Nan Surou Seeing that the timing wasn't right, he didn't let Song Ruoshui go to Pan Yiyang.

But the back house of Hu's mansion is still full of smog. In order to avoid trouble, Nan Surou moved out of Hu's mansion and lived in another courtyard prepared for her by Kanehu, named Shui Wuyue.

After the incident subsided, the matter of Concubine Hua Gui was downplayed. Concubine Hua Gui had already woken up, but she kept claiming that she was not sick.

But Tuoba Lian calmed down his emotions, and under the suggestion of Concubine Hua, he visited Nan Surou in person.

However, Tuoba Lian did not expect that the person who coveted Nan Surou was not only himself, because when he was about to step on the steps of Shui Wuyue, he ran into the sedan chair of the Seventh Prince Tuoba Lin.

Tuoba Lin got off the sedan chair, and when he raised his eyes, he saw Tuoba Lian who was staring at him in a daze.

A respectful smile appeared on Tuoba Lian's face, "Isn't Seventh Brother very busy on weekdays? Why did you come here?"

While speaking, the two brothers looked at each other calmly.

Tuoba Lian could tell that Tuoba Lin had carefully dressed up today.

Tuoba Lin is dressed in a black brocade robe, which makes him arrogant and evil. He is tall and slender, with fair skin, handsome eyes and sculpted eyebrows, and a half bunch of seaweed-like long hair in a jade crown. His eyes are slender, bright and energetic, refreshing and delicate Flowing, revealing the nobleness naturally, the lips are slightly upturned.

Women who are not familiar with Tuoba Lin will be intimidated by his temperament when they first see such a person.

However, Tuoba Lian always knew his brother very well.

Tuoba Lin has a tough personality since childhood. Contrary to his mother and concubine Yu Shu, Tuoba Lin's emotions are easy to lose control, and he has sadistic traits. He often kills cats, dogs, birds and other pets in the palace. He once killed a pregnant mare, cut out the foal from the horse's stomach, and asked someone to send the foal to the emperor in a bloody state to claim credit. The emperor was shocked and angry, and knocked out his two front teeth with a slap .

Tuoba Lin sneered and said: "Ninth Brother, you are not taking care of your seriously ill mother and concubine in Ronghua Palace, what are you doing here? I had an appointment with Miss Nan a few days ago, but I didn't hear that she also invited you."

Have an appointment?

Tuoba Lian frowned, it seems that Tuoba Lin is also playing with Nan Surou.

Concubine Yu Shu's death was unclear last time. As Concubine Yu Shu's son, Tuoba Lin would not be as indifferent as on the surface. Concubine Yu Shu and Concubine Zhang De had a good relationship. Then he asked the emperor for instructions and asked for the seventh prince Tuoba Lin. The emperor was very busy and didn't think there was anything wrong with it, so he agreed.

Since Tuoba Lin followed Concubine Zhang De, Concubine Zhang De weighed the pros and cons and asked him to come in contact with Nan Surou.

On the surface, Concubine Zhang De has no conflict with Nan Surou, so Concubine Zhang De is the matchmaker, and Tuoba Lin is Shui Wuyue's legitimate guest.

Tuoba Lian had no intention of arguing over such meaningless matters, but just bowed his head and said, "Seventh brother, please."

Tuoba Lin saw that he was savvy, so he didn't make things too difficult, and the two brothers went into Shui Wu Yue together.

The concierge had been waiting there a long time ago, waiting for someone to lead the way for the two of them.
