imperial psychologist

Chapter 367
Prince Gong's carriage also stopped outside the side gate of the palace.

The servants of the palace helped Prince Gong get out of the car. Prince Gong looked at Bo Ling who dismounted together with a complicated expression. After exchanging a few words of greetings, Prince Gong ordered his servants to send Bo Ling to the Yueyue Pavilion not far away. And he himself had to change his clothes first.

And, meet the princess.

Prince Gong quickly passed through the carved railings and painted buildings of the palace—what happened this afternoon was too unimaginable and appalling.

The emperor actually gave this girl who hadn't even reached the age of Ji a single official position, set up a palace for her in the inner court, and even let her go to the mansion to give lectures...

He couldn't wait to tell his wife all he had seen and heard in the afternoon.

……

Zhenshi is not in the room at this time, she is sitting in her small garden reading at night.

Prince Gong searched around for several times, asked many servants, and finally chased here.When he saw the concubine, he stepped forward a little aggrieved, "Why are you here? Let me find it easily..."

Zhen looked up a little strangely, and saw her husband who was sweating profusely at a glance.

Looking at each other, Zhen Shi suddenly smiled, she quickly put down the book in her hand, and raised her hand to let the maidservant to pick up some clean clothes for the prince.

Listening to Wang Hao's arrangements and instructions, Prince Gong suddenly felt that a certain gap in his heart was temporarily blocked.

Panting, he sat down beside the princess, took the tea from his wife, and gradually calmed down.

"You don't know," Prince Gong heaved a sigh of relief, "I was terrified this afternoon..."

"What's wrong?" Zhen asked with concern.

She raised her eyes to signal the servants beside her to retreat, and only she and Prince Gong were left in the small garden.

Therefore, Prince Gong recounted the conversation with Emperor Jianxi in the Hall of Health Preservation today.Mrs. Zhen listened, raising her hand from time to time to wipe the sweat off Prince Gong's forehead with a handkerchief, and occasionally interrupted to ask a sentence or two.

After Prince Gong finished speaking, he looked at his wife's calm face with surprise, "Why are you not surprised?"

"It's a good thing." The concubine said softly, "Didn't Master Zhang discuss with the prince earlier about recruiting Bai Ling into his command? Now that the emperor has asked her to give lectures in our mansion, then we will seize the opportunity and let this Baisi Yao has a look at our sincerity."

"But... but what if this is the test of the father?" Prince Gong lowered his voice, and a slight worry appeared on his face, "Today, the father personally burned her manuscript."

As soon as this guess came out, more clues came to Prince Gong's mind one by one.

"You don't know, when we came back tonight, the martial law just happened to be lifted, and there were many people on the street." Prince Gong held his wife's hand as he spoke, and Mrs. Zhen felt his fingers were cold - which shows the weight of this worry .

He continued, "Bai Ling followed my carriage on horseback. Since I left the palace, I have been hearing people on both sides shouting 'Bo Si Yao', 'Bo Si Yao'. her."

Prince Gong narrowed his eyes slightly, "I'm not jealous, she can come up with such a clever plan to catch the thief and save so many lives in a flash, it is indeed a rare talent, it's just..."

"Just what?" Zhen asked warmly, "Don't worry, my lord, just speak slowly."

"Jun Ping, I'm afraid..." Prince Gong's eyebrows trembled slightly, "I'm really afraid... Father Emperor likes to play this kind of trick the most. He held people up to a high place a moment ago, so high that it was windy. The wind, the rain, the rain, and the next moment it knocks people down, not only knocks them down, but also implicates them..."

Prince Gong raised his eyes to look at his wife, "You said, father sent Bai Ling into our mansion, is it also to test us?"

"Testing... what?" Wang Hao asked.

There was a blank look in Prince Gong's eyes.

What is there to test... He doesn't know either.

But he never could figure it out.

Since he was a child, he could only get a sigh and helpless forgiveness from his father with his stupidity and frankness.

He fearfully lives himself like the Gu Renren in the books, lest something might go wrong and inadvertently arouse his father's fury.

It wasn't until he met the princess, Sun Beiji, and Zhang Shouzhong... that he gradually understood some of his father's thoughts from the analysis of these people.

But it was still a frightening event for him to face the monarch on the dragon chair.

"My lord." Zhen's other hand lightly rested on Prince Gong's icy fingers, "This concubine dares to say some outrageous things."

Prince Gong raised his head, with anticipation in his eyes - that's why he came here.

He knew that no matter what happened, Jun Ping could always grasp the key points, solve his doubts, and calm his fears.

"My concubine heard that Zhang Shenxian moved directly into the Xuanxiu Palace recently, right?" Zhen said softly.

Prince Gong nodded, "Yes, father's cultivation has reached a critical juncture, so..."

"Wang Ye saw Father Huang today, what do you think of his face?"

"I feel my face turned red, but my complexion looks even worse." Prince Gong frowned slightly, "I heard from Huang Chongde that the rash on Father's body has become more and more serious in recent summer, and—"

Zhen Shi lightly pressed the back of Prince Gong's hand, and said in a low voice, "Then what does the prince think, how does the father treat the son?"

Prince Gong lowered his eyes slightly.

The emperor's father treated Chen Yicong...his deep affection and sincerity are obvious to all.

In Prince Gong's impression, Chen Yicong was probably the only one who dared to refute or even quarrel with Emperor Jianxi directly in the Zhou Dynasty, and who was still able to be a concubine of Longwo.

Prince Gong still remembers that when Chen Yicong was five or six years old, Emperor Jianxi took advantage of the spring to come to Prince Gong's mansion to have a family reunion.

But at that time, he was really too nervous, and he said several wrong words in succession, which offended Long Yan, and was immediately reprimanded by Emperor Jianxi for being unfilial and useless.

At that time, he only thought that everything was over, but the eldest son who was hugged by his companion suddenly said something shocking - "Father is kind and son is filial, father is kind and son is filial, grandpa, you are too cruel to father and king! "

Emperor Jianxi, who was originally angry, suddenly choked on Chen Yicong's words, and after a while, he suddenly laughed out of anger.

At that time, the son of the elders spoke without restraint, and when he started to study later, he uttered more "rebellious and immoral" words-every time, King Gong was frightened.

But the strange thing is that Emperor Jianxi was never annoyed by his son's confrontation. He always calmly argued the immature Chen Yicong until he was speechless, and then ordered in a cold voice, "Go back and think about it!"

——This is the father that Prince Gong has never seen.

He never played chess with himself, but from time to time he specially summoned Chen Yicong to the palace to play chess.

The son had only learned chess for a long time at that time, how could he be the opponent of Emperor Jianxi—so Emperor Jianxi gave up his sons, at first sixteen, then thirteen, then nine, eight...

How did Emperor Jianxi evaluate Chen Yicong's chess style?

——Although it is childish, it is awe-inspiring and tenacious, and there is a hint of bravery in the meticulousness.

"My lord?"

The concubine called softly, waking up Prince Gong from his memories.

Prince Gong's expression suddenly became lonely, he sighed softly, "What exactly is Madam trying to say, just tell me the truth."

Zhen Shi held Prince Gong's hand tightly, she was so hard that Prince Gong couldn't help holding his breath.

"The concubine thinks..." Zhen's expression was calm and flat, "Royal father, I probably don't have long to live."
