Chapter 67: Compassion
Gu Banqin wailed in his heart, but he could only helplessly meet it, thinking about what way to make Helian Hongyi's problem of not getting through the door be changed, every time he suddenly appeared like this, it was really a heart attack that scared him out.
"See the Emperor."
Gu Banqin felt that she and Helian Hongyi really didn't match, every time she saw him, it was when she had something to do, either eating or writing, this time it was good, just when she was training, he appeared.
Helian Hongyi seemed to be in a good mood, walked up to Gu Banqin and raised his hand to let her get up, and then said to Liu Fu and Zhang Yuzhu, who were still kneeling on the side:
"Your mother's words are right, you need to remember the lesson."
Liu Wu and Zhang Yuzhu suddenly rose from the original eighth-level defense to first-level defense, nodding like pounding garlic.
That deferential look, as if he had been trained by Helian Hongyi, was the result of their ancestors burning high incense and green smoke from the ancestral tomb, Gu Banqin looked inexplicably and felt a little sad.
After Helian Hongyi said this, he walked into Gu Banqin's dormitory, Gu Banqin had to follow, thinking that Helian Hongyi was interested, but he didn't expect that he was just sitting in the hall drinking tea this time, and made an unprecedented evaluation of the tea in Gu Banqin's palace:
"Although this tea is refreshing, don't drink it every day, why don't you drink the tea that I asked the Cabinet Division to send you?"
Gu Banqin thought for a while, stepped forward and replied: "Back to the emperor, the concubine doesn't like to drink tea, so she took it to the imperial dining room to change the butter cake!" ”
Helian Hongyi: ......
Gu Banqin saw that he didn't speak, thinking that he didn't believe it, and hurriedly took out a pair of white gold plates with flowers and wealth from the long case behind him, and the one on top was like butter cakes.
Helian Hongyi looked at Gu Banqin, and saw that her eyes were full of expectation, and her black and shiny appearance was particularly attractive, so he reached out and took a piece of butter cake, took a bite, and commented:
"It tastes good."
Gu Banqin saw that the big guy liked it, so he put down his hanging heart, originally planned to hide it and eat it slowly, but now he didn't dare to be selfish, and put it aside for Helian Hongyi to enjoy.
Fortunately, Helian Hongyi's focus is not on the butter cake, and even the one that has only taken a bite has been put down, Gu Banqin likes to eat sweet, so he deliberately made the imperial dining room double the honey to make it, Helian Hongyi doesn't seem to like sweets very much.
"I've read the summary of the case of the Inner Court Division, although there are still doubts, but I don't plan to delve into it, you should be able to think of the reasons, do you have any opinions on this?"
Gu Banqin immediately shook her head like a rattle: "No opinion, the concubine has no other opinion." The summary of the case of the Inner Court Division, the concubine felt quite right. ”
In fact, she just wanted to rescue Jia Jinlu, and she didn't mean to kill Concubine Zhao De, and the emperor obviously didn't want to kill Concubine Zhao Defei at this time, so the summary of the case that was obviously full of loopholes but just right was the most suitable.
In the past two days, Gu Banqin has already experienced the feeling of being a favorite concubine, to be honest, except for the pressure, she really hasn't experienced any benefits.
Helian Hongyi saw through Gu Banqin's careful thinking at a glance, and his lips unconsciously showed a smile of unknown meaning, Gu Banqin's scalp was numb when he saw it, Helian Hongyi folded his hands and asked leisurely:
"How did you guess that someone from the Gui Palace did it?"
Gu Banqin's back tightened, intending to cover up the past, but when he saw Helian Hongyi's sharp eyes, he was so frightened that he quickly dispelled the careful thinking of the past, and told Helian Hongyi selectively and truthfully:
"Back to the emperor, the slave maid also has the intention of trying it, after Jia Jinlu disappeared, the concubine searched around for a long time and didn't find it, if there is no around, it must be in the side courtyard."
"Looking at the entire harem, everyone has not been in the palace for a long time, and the terrain in the palace is not as familiar as the people in Gui Ligong, the concubine thought like this, so she let people go to the side door to stare at it, but I didn't expect that Jia Jinlu's life should not be extinguished, really Zhang Yuzhu They met the sneaky Mama Yu, and followed all the way to save Jia Jinlu."
Gu Banqin's words echoed back and forth, there was nothing wrong, it just covered up that she noticed something wrong from Concubine Zhao Defei's uneasy expression, because she couldn't explain it, there was no factual basis, Gu Banqin didn't want to take this risk.
Helian Hongyi looked at Gu Banqin from top to bottom, nodded, and said, "Very good, you are very smart." With this, you have accurately found a way out, and looking at the entire harem, no one can match you. ”
Regarding the big guy's false praise, Gu Banqin chose to be modest:
"No, no, no, the concubine is just trying her luck, her brain is very stupid, and she is not smart at all." I vaguely felt that what Helian Hongyi was going to say next had the meaning of wanting to pit Gu Banqin, and generally good words were followed by a 'but', and Gu Banqin immediately became vigilant.
Helian Hongyi didn't sell anything to her, and said directly:
"In my harem, I feel very relieved to have someone as smart as you. At the beginning of the founding of the Helian family, it was an eventful time, and I was still unable to deal with state affairs, so I didn't want to pay much attention to the affairs of the harem. ”
"The Queen Mother is a paper tiger who is very lustful, and the most important thing is that I don't believe her, but I am helpless, she is my mother-in-law, the wife left by the first emperor, the middle palace is uncertain for a day, she will control the harem for a day, even if there is no trouble for a moth, I also feel upset...... Meaning, do you understand? ”
Gu Banqin's whole person was already petrified, and the meaning of Helian Hongyi's words made her lose the ability to think.
Standing stiff for a long time, Helian Hongyi did not urge, only drank tea by himself, and waited for Gu Banqin to slowly dissolve itself.
Gu Banqin tentatively whispered to Helian Hongyi: "What does the emperor mean, concubine...... I don't really understand. ”
In Gu Banqin's ears, what Helian Hongyi said just now was like a black hole, and he fell into it if he was not careful.
Seeing Gu Banqin like this, Helian Hongyi stared at the boss with two eyes, black and bright as if he was painted, hooking his evil fire, stood up, led Gu Banqin to the bedroom, and said as he walked:
"You don't understand, I'll explain it to you slowly."
The door to the bedroom was closed.
Gu Banqin?!
Liu Wu was carrying a tray with re-brewed tea and two plates of cut melons and fruits, which were about to be sent to the dormitory, but were stopped by Wang Shun's father-in-law who was guarding under the corridor.
glanced at the tray in Liu Wu's hand, compared it to her, and shook his head, Liu Wu was stunned, and then he understood what Wang Shun's father-in-law meant, and his face showed joy.
Wang Shun's father-in-law asked her to take these melons and fruits to the rest room in the south, and the emperor and Gu Jieyu did things, but they couldn't finish for a while, and the things sent by Liu Wu happened to honor him at that time.
