Although he said this, Gu Banqin didn't need to look at his face, just listening to the voice, he could feel his sour breath.

Turning his gaze and looking at him, he saw King An's eyes drooping, judging from his appearance, he was a little more calm than Fang's.

But Gu Banqin can see that His Royal Highness King An should not have been very liked by the first emperor in the past, because the first emperor didn't like it, so there were not many old ministers in the court to follow, so that his identity as a descendant was useless.

His Royal Highness King An must have a great opinion on Helian Hongyi.

looks polite, but his steps are vain, his face is a little pale, his eyes are quite deep, and he has a tendency to edema, which shows that he often stays up late, combined with his vain steps, he should be a good wine and lustful, and when he speaks to Helian Hongyi, he maintains a smile on the surface, but the smile does not reach the bottom of his eyes, and it is very superficial.

King An was not loved by the previous emperors, and since he was a child, this kind of admiration for Helian Hongyi has been deeply rooted in his bone marrow, which he may not even have noticed.

King An also seemed to feel Gu Banqin's gaze, and when he raised his eyes to look at her, Gu Banqin withdrew his gaze early, stood beside Helian Hongyi, and was very well-behaved for Helian Hongyi, it seemed that it was just King An's illusion just now, and Gu Banqin didn't look at him at all.

Helian Hongyi did not give a clear answer to King An's sentence of 'envy and affection', but just smiled:

"If King An is fine, you can go to visit the Queen Mother, and the Queen Mother will be very happy to see you."

This is the meaning of the eviction order, where would King An not hear it. His face was stunned for a moment, and then he smiled: "Oh, yes, after the minister's brother came back, before he entered the palace to see his mother, he just thought that he would come to the emperor here to say goodbye, and the minister's brother would go." ”

Helian Hongyi stared at the file, did not look up, just nodded lightly, and waved one hand at King An, which was agreed.

Gu Banqin unexpectedly saw King An's expression of clenching his jaw, and after King An bowed to Helian Hongyi again, he walked out of the hall.

After he turned around, Helian Hongyi raised his head, looked at the little fat man sitting on the Taishi chair, swaying his little fat legs and not stopping to eat, put down the file, and said to the little fat man:

"Jun'er, go with the third brother to ask the Queen Mother to go and ask for peace."

The little fat man's mouth was stuffed with something, and his two mung bean-like eyes tried to widen a little, but the effect was not obvious, and his fat body was almost stuck in the middle of the armrests of the Taishi chair.

After hearing Helian Hongyi's words, the little fat man seemed a little reluctant, his eyes were still glancing at the dim sum, but he didn't dare to disobey Helian Hongyi's order, got down from the chair, walked over upside down, arched the little fat hand, and replied to Helian Hongyi: "Yes." ”

Then he turned around and walked out of the Taihe Hall three times in one step.

Gu Banqin looked at the back of the little fat man leaving, and turned to look at Helian Hongyi, she really couldn't understand how such Helian Hongyi could have a good relationship with such a chubby.

But listening to Helian Hongyi's tone, it is clear that he cares about the little fat man.

Helian Hongyi dipped his pen in pen and ink, and saw Gu Banqin staring at the door in a daze, and asked:

"What do you think?"

Gu Banqin looked back at him, put down the ink strip in his hand, and asked Helian Hongyi: "The Fifth Highness is too fat, so it is not good for him to grow." ”

Helian Hongyi lowered his eyes and smiled, as if helpless: "But this is the best for him." ”

Gu Banqin was puzzled, and wanted to ask again, but Helian Hongyi took the initiative to divert the topic: "By the way, you have been looking at King An before, do you see something?" ”

Helian Hongyi's acumen did not surprise Gu Banqin:

"That's a lot."

Helian Hongyi dipped in ink, wrote a sentence for review, and then hooked his lips and smiled: "Oh? Tell me about it. ”

Gu Banqin thought for a while, and did not intend to hide what he saw: "His Royal Highness King An is the concubine of the Queen Mother, dressed in books, courteous in writing, and respectful and polite to the emperor. ”

After Helian Hongyi heard Gu Banqin say this, he looked up at her with a pen, always with a smile on his lips, and did not delay the work in hand at all, and he was not too interested in Gu Banqin's superficial evaluation, until Gu Banqin continued, he had to face it squarely.

"However, it is true that the heart is like an arrow, but it can also show that His Royal Highness King An has not made much achievements in Yuzhou, so no matter how soon or late he returns to Jiankang, he does not have much influence on the current affairs of Yuzhou.

Hearing this, Helian Hongyi couldn't read it calmly anymore, put down the pen, looked at Gu Banqin with his chest crossed, and asked, "Then according to what you say, King An is a drunkard with no ambitions?" ”

Gu Banqin rolled up her sleeves, continued to study ink for him, shook her head and said:

"Not really. What I said is that His Royal Highness King An is willing to show people, he is good at drinking, but he should not be a person without ambitions, on the contrary, his ambitions are very big, so big that they may be a little overstep, which has a lot to do with his own growth environment. ”

"He is ambitious, deep-minded, and deliberately shows submission and unbearability in front of the emperor, which is a way to show the enemy's weakness, and cover up his skills and ambitions by showing his unbearability, so as to achieve the purpose of deceiving the opponent."

Helian Hongyi thought about Gu Banqin's words carefully, and involuntarily considered one word repeatedly: "Show the enemy...... To be weak? Oh, interesting. So you mean that His Royal Highness King An is a scheming and ambitious man? ”

Gu Banqin listened to Helian Hongyi's summary, and waved his hand decisively: "No, no, no, this is not what I said, it was said by the emperor himself." ”

"Cut, okay, even if I said it, then what you said earlier means this, how much threat do you think His Royal Highness King An has to me?"

Helian Hongyi is now very accustomed to discussing these deeper sensitive topics with Gu Banqin, and Gu Banqin has always given him the feeling that he sees people and things accurately, and when he can't figure out anything, he can discuss with her, at least he can hear some unpretentious and bold truths.

It's as if he asked some people about their evaluation of King An, but what can be said is so bold, looking at it, there is only Gu Banqin, not to mention, her evaluation is not only bold, but also reasonable, a bit of in-depth analysis.

Gu Banqin's cunning black eyes stared at Helian Hongyi for a short while, and when Helian Hongyi was a little impatient, she smiled and shook her head, Helian Hongyi was puzzled:

"What do you mean by shaking your head? I ask you, you can't answer, or don't you dare to answer? ”

Helian Hongyi looked at Gu Banqin with a smile, and the look in his eyes seemed to be saying to Gu Banqin, "You are just a little bit of guts."

"What is there to dare to do, what is not to be answered. No matter how deep His Royal Highness King An's mind is, no matter how big his ambition is, it is useless, there is a sentence that best describes a person like him. ”

Gu Banqin pondered for a while, leaned in front of Helian Hongyi, and said softly:

"That sentence is called - what ability to do what kind of thing, the match of ability and talent is true!."

Helian Hongyi was attracted by the brilliance in Gu Banqin's eyes, recalling what she said, he didn't hold back for a while, he actually laughed, and laughed and laughed, out of control, and finally developed into a hilarious laugh, the whole person held his stomach, lying on the dragon case and laughing, Lang Lang's laughter echoed in the Taihe Palace, and he didn't notice it for a long time.

The ministers who were discussing in the inner hall all stopped their movements in unison, you look at me, I look at you, and then handed over an inquiring look to Liu Youcheng and Lord Tong, Lord Tong understood very well, and explained in a low voice to his colleagues:

"The only one who can make the emperor so happy is probably Concubine Xian. Ignore it, let's move on. ”

Helian Hongyi laughed enough, tears appeared in the corners of his eyes, Gu Banqin handed him a handkerchief to wipe it, and muttered:

"Is it that funny?"

Helian Hongyi took the handkerchief handed by Gu Banqin, wiped the corners of his eyes, and then let himself reluctantly return to normal, Gu Banqin looked at his reaction, and also understood that he should be talking about dialogue, Helian Hongyi shook his head and said:

"If you hear what King An and the Queen Mother hear, I really don't know what the reaction will be."

Gu Banqin imagined it for a moment, and immediately looked disgusted: "What else can you react, you must hate me to death, and you want to stab me with a villain behind your back and drop your head." ”

Gu Banqin's estimate, Helian Hongyi also agreed, and then nodded, but was glared at by Gu Banqin, Helian Hongyi smiled and reached out to pinch her puffing cheeks, and avoided Gu Banqin, Helian Hongyi reluctantly put down his hand and said:

"You! This mouth makes me want to tear you apart, and I feel a pity! Don't say I didn't remind you, King An is different from the Queen Mother, his mind is as you said, much deeper than the Queen Mother, you should not take it lightly! ”

"It's not that I scare you, you are cautious during this time, the Queen Mother was holding her breath some time ago, and finally waited for King An to return to Beijing, and the first thing I saw her do was to work with King An to deal with you."

Gu Banqin's scalp tingled when she heard this, it was better to prick the villain and drop her head, she pouted at Helian Hongyi, and said aggrievedly: "The emperor told the concubine this, if something really happens, you will help the concubine, right?" ”

Helian Hongyi looked at her for a long time, smiling: "Then we have to see what the matter is, whether I can make a move." ”

When such a sentence came out, Gu Banqin's shoulders were even heavier, because she only had a rough guess and impression of King An, and she had never fought with him, so she didn't know what King An would do if she wanted to vent her anger to the Queen Mother, and it was precisely because she didn't know that she had no bottom in her heart, and the unknown was terrifying, and that's what she meant.
