imperial psychologist

Chapter 320 Please wear the green hat

Yuan Zhen's sudden "iron mouth" made Bo Ling startled for a moment, but before she could react, Yuan Zhen had already turned around and walked into the dark night.

This Eunuch Yuan... seems to have a lot of stories about him.

Bo Ling watched his back disappear at the steps not far away, and quickly looked away.She raised her head again, looking at the tall palace in front of her alone.

Bo Ling took a deep breath, and then stepped steadily into the threshold.

Emperor Jianxi seemed to really love the use of curtains in the interior layout. These curtains are like long streamers hanging from the ceiling to the ground, changing people's vision as they flutter from time to time.

In the gap, Bai Ling suddenly saw Huang Chongde sitting not far away, as if he was resting with his eyes closed.

Bo Ling raised the curtain and walked straight towards the old man. Huang Chongde also opened his eyes to look over when he heard the noise.

Seeing Bo Ling, he smiled.

"Sit." Huang Chongde pointed to the chair beside him.

Bo Ling looked to both sides, and sat obediently beside Huang Chongde, "Is the emperor not here?"

"Originally, I was here. There are still some matters in the court. The emperor is tied up and will come soon." Huang Chongde replied softly, "Let's have some tea first."

Bo Ling picked up the cup on the side and took a sip.

Next to the tray of cups and cups, there is the golden step shaker found from Bai's house.

Huang Chongde adjusted the clothes in front of him, and said in a low voice, "How is the situation of the queen mother recently?"

"Nothing has changed in general," Bo Ling replied softly, "but the old man has been in a good mood for the past few months. He burns incense and cooks tea every day, goes to bed early at night, wakes up early in the morning, and eats three meals a day on a regular basis most of the time. ——These are all recorded in the daily notes of the Compassionate Palace.”

Huang Chongde nodded, "Well, it should be very good. I see a group of newcomers have entered the Compassionate Ning Palace this morning."

"Yeah, I feel quite busy, every time Fourteen has to go back at this time..."

Bo Ling smiled and said, holding the warm cup in her hand, remembering what Yuan Zhen said just now in her yard, she suddenly realized that Huang Chongde was not just chatting.

Dangerous sights seemed to be lurking in the constantly disturbed curtains on both sides. Bai Ling lowered his eyes to drink tea, and his peripheral vision could not leave the shadows flickering behind those curtains.

An old man and a young man sat facing each other in the slightly dim hall with cups in hand.

Huang Chongde's question was very detailed, but with the tone and attitude of a parent concerned about the junior, without the slightest sense of abruptness.

About what she has been doing these days, about the preparations for the fourteen newcomers to the Palace of Compassion and Peace, about her attitude and thoughts towards Lin Jieyu... Huang Chongde's questions are false and true, and Bo Ling will answer some questions directly. Yes, there are some questions that Berlin has thought about for a long time, but it is difficult to give an answer.

The two talked for a long time, and Bai Ling leaned back in the chair. The tea in her cup had been exhausted, but she still yawned several times in a row.

"Eunuch Huang, may I have the courage to ask you a question?"

Bo Ling lowered his head and played with the teacup in his hand, his voice was as small as a mosquito humming.

Huang Chongde looked over, "Bosi medicine can be said."

Bai Ling didn't speak immediately, but lowered his head and hesitated for a long time before looking at Huang Chongde with some uncertainty, "...tonight, what happened tonight? When I was at my house just now, Eunuch Yuan also asked I have a few similar questions."

She gripped the rim of the cup tightly, and her knuckles were slightly white from the force.

Bai Ling's throat moved, and he bit the corner of his lips lightly, anxiety and nervousness were clearly written on his face.

She continued, "Although Eunuch Xu suddenly became polite after he found Bu Yao in my house, I can feel that what happened today is not a trivial matter. People from the palace have visited many times before, but there has never been a time like this Brazenly rushed in to arrest people, rummaged through boxes and boxes and smashed things."

Bo Ling looked at the old man beside him, "Can Eunuch Huang tell me why?"

Huang Chongde sighed softly, "Bo Siyao's feeling is right, a major event indeed happened in the palace. Someone saw you appearing with Jin Buyao in a place where you should not be."

Bai Ling's eyes widened slightly.

"Who? Who saw me where?"

"In the Department of Punishment." Huang Chongde said softly, his eyes resting on Bo Ling seriously, not letting go of any minor changes in her, "Someone saw you appearing in the Department of Punishment this morning, holding this golden step Threatening Lin Jieyu. You know, in a place like the Punishment Department, there are usually very few people who can-"

Before Huang Chongde could finish speaking, the cup in Bo Ling's hand fell to the ground.

"Department of Punishment...?" Bai Ling's eyes were full of disbelief.

Huang Chongde glanced at the cup swirling on the ground, "What's wrong?"

Bo Ling lowered his head, his hands on his knees clenched into fists.

"That night in Chuxiu Palace, in front of everyone, the emperor clearly said to transfer it to Dali Temple for review. Why is Mrs. Lin in the Punishment Department?"

The sound was much higher than before, and the echo swayed in the sky above the hall.

Huang Chongde suddenly realized that only a few palace officials who participated in the execution knew about this matter, and Bo Ling has been outside the palace these days, so it is possible that he has never heard of this matter.

He lowered his eyes and thought for a while, this question is really difficult to answer for a while.

Huang Chongde's silence aroused Bo Ling's greater unwillingness and sullenness. She took a few deep breaths, as if trying to control her emotions.

"Obviously that night, I asked all the questions that should be asked? In the harem, using witches and Gu to frame the blame, the emperor is still reluctant, and still wants to be punished lightly. When this matter gets to the public When the imperial concubine hears it, what will she think, what should she think? If there are more in the harem—"

Bai Ling's voice stopped abruptly, and she heard a sound not far from her right. Behind the curtain, something seemed to have been knocked over.

Bo Ling turned to the source of the sound, "... who is there?"

"No one's there, Bosi Yao."

"But I clearly heard—"

"That's the wind." Huang Chongde replied firmly.

Bai Ling opened her mouth lightly, but did not speak. After a long time, she finally asked with some sadness, "...does Eunuch Huang have anything else to ask?"

"Not for the time being." Huang Chongde also stood up from his seat. He looked at the hourglass not far away, "I didn't expect to talk until this time. The Holy One has not come back at this time. I guess there is no time to see you again tonight." is you."

Bai Ling nodded palely, "I... understand."

Huang Chongde personally sent Bai Ling out of the hall, arranged for the palace servants to take her home, and then almost ran back to the original place.

After he stepped back to the threshold of the main hall, he heard Qiu Shi whispering back.

Behind the curtain just now, Emperor Jianxi stood in the dark, the veins on his forehead were bulging, and the blood on his face was almost gone.

Qiu Shi rarely saw Emperor Jianxi's face like this, so he was too scared to say a word.

"Tell me something," Huang Chongde prompted from the side, looking at Qiu Shi, "What did you find in Jia Yuchun's room?"

"Slave... Slave," Qiu Shi hesitantly took out something from his bosom, "Slave found it, this."

Emperor Jianxi stepped forward and grabbed what was in Qiu Shi's hand. It was a very delicate snuff bottle with a red rose in full bloom painted on the front.

"Where did you find it?" Huang Chongde asked.

"Yes... yes... Your Majesty, don't be angry, this servant is... yes..."

"Where did I find it!!" Emperor Jianxi shouted sharply, causing Qiu Shi to tremble all over.

Qiu Shi almost cried, "It's...under Jia Yuchun's pillow..."
