imperial psychologist

Chapter 259 hint
The time for two cups of tea passed quickly.

Most of the people in the room were anxiously waiting, looking out from time to time, only Emperor Jianxi maintained his initial silent posture.

The courtyard suddenly became noisy, and it seemed that many palace people had come out of the side hall.

Qiu Shi also ran into the main hall again at this time, he wiped the sweat from his forehead, and said softly, "Return to the master, ladies and gentlemen, Bai Siyao kept four people down, and the rest came out. "

Concubine Ning straightened her upper body, "Which four?"

Before Qiu Shi could reply, Jin Zhi had already walked in quickly, she glanced at Concubine Ning with a bit of arrogance in her eyes, and then stood back to the corner where she was waiting for orders before.

Concubine Ning didn't see this look, but seeing Jin Zhi's return already made her feel suspicious——Jin Zhi should be interrogated the most!Why did Berlin let her go?

Qiu Shi said softly, "Three of the four people left by Bai Siyao are court ladies serving in the courtyard of Chuxiu Palace, and one is the eunuch who has been keeping watch at night these days. Among the three court ladies, two are The one who waits on Qiangwei, who usually serves by Jieyu's side, happened to run into Baoyuan tonight."

"How were these four selected?"

"It should be selected based on whether you can see the change of the black spots, because there are three people who said that they can see the black spots getting bigger and smaller." Qiu Shi said softly, "But there is another one who said they didn't observe it, no I know why it was also selected by Bosi Yao."

"What about Bao Yuan, where is Bao Yuan now?" Ning Pin asked.

Just as Qiu Shi was about to speak, Huang Chongde entered the room again at this moment.

Qiu Shi nodded to Huang Chongde from a distance, and then said to Concubine Ning again, "Go back to your mother, Bao Yuan is waiting outside now, she has come back earlier, but Si Yao also let her come out."

Concubine Ning's hand grasped the armrest on the side of the chair.

Didn't she say that Baoyuan was going to be interrogated?Why is Bao Yuan released now?

Huang Chongde said warmly at the right time, "Master, empress, Bai Siyao is almost ready."

Only then did Emperor Jianxi open his eyes, "What is she doing over there?"

Huang Chongde shook his head, and said with a smile, "This servant can't tell, I'd better wait for her to come later, and the master will ask in person."

Before the words fell, Bo Ling had already stepped into the gate of the main hall of Chuxiu Palace.

"Playing tricks." Jin Zhi narrowed his eyes and looked at Bo Ling. The voice was neither high nor low, but it just happened to be heard by everyone in the room.

Concubine Ning didn't bother to pay attention, she just looked at Bai Ling, and said with a bit of worry, "I heard that you didn't interrogate Bao Yuan?"

"Yes." Bai Ling nodded

"why?"

"It's not that I don't want to interrogate, it's that I can't." Bai Ling said softly, and she looked at Jin Zhi, "It is said that the two elder sisters, Baoyuan and Jin Zhi, are the people I want to question the most, but neither of them Pass the suggestive test——I know that the emperor and a few empresses are probably waiting for me to answer what I am doing, so I will explain it with a few of them now."

Concubine Ning then leaned her slightly forward body back again, waiting for Bai Ling's next words.

"The so-called hypnosis, literally understood, is to use some means to slowly approach the time of sleep in a state of clear consciousness."

She thought for a moment, omitted all descriptions of concepts, and quickly went through similar experiences in her mind.

"I believe that the emperor and the empress have also had similar feelings. When people are dreaming or drunk, they often say things that they dare not say or even think about when they are sober. So in theory, if people can enter this status, and then ask them about what happened in Chuxiu Palace in the past few days, and you will be able to hear the truth."

Lin Jieyu frowned slightly, then turned to look at Emperor Jianxi, "Isn't this... sorcery?"

Emperor Jianxi looked at Bai Ling deeply, "Go on."

"However, it is not easy to lead people into a state of hypnosis. The success of hypnosis often depends not on the technique of the hypnotist, but on the suggestibility of the hypnotized. Because the latter has to follow Use the guidance of the former to guide your own thoughts step by step. The stronger the suggestion, the easier it is to do this step. Of course, the trust relationship between the hypnotist and the hypnotized can also affect the success, but that is It's out of the scope of today's discussion."

Bo Ling raised her hand—she was holding a piece of paper, and there was a small black spot the size of a fingernail in the center of the paper.

"I drew a small dot on the paper, and it is impossible to change the black dot that falls on the paper, but after hearing the question 'Can you see this dot getting bigger or smaller', it really Those who can feel the changes of black spots can imagine the strength of their suggestion. These people are the ones who can be hypnotized... Jinzhi and Baoyuan were brushed off at this step, because they both They all gave a firm feedback of 'invisible change'."

"But among the four people you selected, not all of them can see this change." Huang Chongde added, "Isn't there one who also said he couldn't see it?"

"Of course, you can't just look at the answers she said, but also look at their expressions and actions to judge whether they are telling the truth." Bai Ling said softly, "I didn't choose some who claimed to be able to see. The only one The court lady who said she didn’t see the change and was left behind by the minister felt that the dot was moving at first, but because the two people around insisted that the dot would not move, after a while she didn’t feel the dot was moving... ...this one is pretty standard."

After finishing speaking, Bai Ling looked at Emperor Jianxi again, "That's all I want to say. If the emperor is willing to listen to the interrogation process, then I have another merciless request."

"Ok?"

"The emperor, please give me the testimonies of the interrogation of these four people tonight." Bai Ling said softly, "For the sake of fairness, I don't intend to bring the topic to other places. It's better to let me ask the facts already in the testimony again." ', see if there is any discrepancy before and after."

Emperor Jianxi raised his chin, and Huang Chongde quickly walked out the door. When he came back, he had an extra document that had been wound up with a thread.He disassembled it in front of everyone, then took out four thin sheets of paper, and handed them to Bo Ling.

Qiu Shi held a candlestick in front of Bai Ling, and she looked carefully at each one by the candlelight.

In the quiet room, Qu couldn't help but glance at Lin Jieyu.

Lin Jieyu's gaze never left Bo Ling from beginning to end, and neither did her maid Jin Zhi.

It's just that the former's expression is calm, while the latter's face is already pale.

Seeing this scene, Qu felt an unspeakable hatred and exhaustion welling up in her heart. She slowly stood up and bowed slightly to Emperor Jianxi, "Your Majesty, I want to go to the courtyard to see Baoyuan." ..."

"Your Majesty, please wait." Bo Ling raised his eyes, with a hint of helplessness in his eyes, "Just let Sister Baoyuan come to the side hall later, let's settle this matter as soon as possible, and we can go back and talk if we have something to say."

Their eyes met, and both of them instantly understood the emotion in each other's eyes. Qu's five fingers were twisted together, and he finally sat down suppressing the discomfort.

After a while, Bo Ling raised his head again.

"I've finished reading." Bo Ling said softly, she tapped the four confessions in her hand on the ground, tidying up the corners, Huang Chongde stepped forward to take them, just about to put them back into the testimony collection , Emperor Jianxi reached out and took the four confessions.

"Now, please follow me to the side hall of Chuxiu Palace."
