imperial psychologist

Chapter 409
This man named Li Yuan was honored by his ancestors, but his wealth did not last for five generations.

By the time of his previous generation, the family had gradually declined—there was nothing but money.

He has no contacts as an official, nor the ability to do business, so he can only sit on his laurels and eat his own food.

However, Li Yuan's parents were very frugal, and they worked diligently throughout their lives, and they still left Li Yuan a huge family fortune.

In order to fulfill his mother's last wish, Li Yuan passed the Tongsheng examination and then the scholar examination, but failed.

After that, he never sought fame and fame, but used the money to travel and write travel notes.

"Shanchuan Shilu" is Li Yuan's early record - in the preface, the author wrote down all his experiences, and deeply missed his enlightened parents.

The words used in the writing are very plain, but the lines between the lines make people feel affectionate.

Bo Ling turned back page by page until she realized that there seemed to be someone standing beside her. She raised her head and looked sideways. She didn't know when Zhen had entered the room, and she was standing not far away looking towards her side.

"Is the book good?" Zhen asked with a smile.

Bo Ling put the book on the table again, then supported the table beside him, slowly stood up, and bowed to the queen.

This is the third time Zhen Shi saw Bai Ling, seeing her salute, Zhen Shi almost said quickly, "Sit down, don't be restrained."

Only then did the palace people step forward to replace the tea on the table.

"It's nice." Bo Ling replied at this time, she thought for a while, and then said, "I feel that the preface is better than the main text... Maybe it's because I only read the first part."

Zhen Shi smiled, what a coincidence, she also had the same feeling as Bo Ling - this book, Zhen Shi read it now and then, has not finished reading, but she is already familiar with the preface so much that she can almost memorize it up.

Zhen said softly, "Does Bo Ling also want to be someone who stays away from the temple?"

Bo Ling heard some overtones.

Just at that moment, she was just talking about her impressions after reading the book.But thinking about it carefully, she really didn't want to stay in this place any longer, and she had indeed been preparing for a way out of Beijing.

Bo Ling didn't answer Zhen's question directly, but Silence had already given the answer.

Zhen also understood.

"You have indeed done enough." Zhen's voice was calm, "Sometimes the turmoil here is unreasonable... If there is a way to retreat, no one would want to stand here."

Bo Ling looked at Zhen Shi with some surprise——Zhen Shi's gaze was always gentle, but it was not the kind of low-browed and pleasing eyes that can be seen everywhere in the palace.

This kind of gentle and determined femininity is very familiar to Berlin.

She tentatively asked with some doubts, "Your Majesty's words... are you willing to let me go?"

There was already some sadness in Zhen's heart, "Do you really want to leave?"

"I want to..." Bo Ling replied in a low voice, "I've always wanted to."

Zhen Shi sighed, "Then... of course it's also possible."

Bo Ling was stunned, "...Your Majesty, are you serious?"

"Seriously." Zhen replied again, "I've been thinking about what to reward you and your brother for the past few days. After all, you saved the prince's life."

Bai Ling sat there, even forgetting Shane——Zhen's answer came so suddenly that she almost forgot to breathe for a moment.

Zhen raised her eyes to look at the window in front of her, and continued, "Gold, silver and jewellery, rare treasures, or giving you and your father and brother a promotion... don't seem appropriate.

"You don't like these, right?" Zhen Shi said lightly.

Bai Ling nodded in a daze.

Zhen continued, "Later, I heard that your father, Bai Shijun, had proposed to the emperor to take you out of the capital, but he was not accepted, so I thought that maybe it's time to let your family leave here."

Burling frowned.

Zhen Shi's words are so sincere, it really doesn't look like a temporary joke.

Bo Ling thought back to the time when he saw a doctor for the noble concubine when he first entered the palace. At that time, it was nothing more than an opportunity for the family to stay away from the capital a year later.

Now the queen suddenly made such a promise, saying that she was unhappy was a lie...

But Berlin neither laughed nor cried.

She digested for a long time, and then slowly let out a sigh of relief.

Zhen looked at the girl in front of her who seemed a little dull, with a kind of loving smile in her eyes, "However, Bo Ling, I really want to keep you.

"I was thinking earlier that it would be great for the late emperor to point out that you are studying with the prince." Zhen said with a smile, "You are so smart and can tolerate his awkward temperament. If you are willing to stay in the palace Now, I will definitely take good care of you... I won't let Chen Yicong or anyone else bully you."

Bai Ling shook her head, and she sighed with deep eyes, "Your Majesty is joking, how could the prince bully me, he will be a wise prince."

Although Mrs. Zhen had expected this reaction a long time ago, Mrs. Zhen still felt a little regretful seeing that Bai Ling refused so simply.

"...But he really values ​​you as a friend," Zhen said softly, "Since we really want to leave, let's pick a date and let's say goodbye together."

Zhen's words were sincere to the extreme.

Bo Ling had mixed feelings, but when the words came to his lips, he could only say "OK".

"There are probably people watching you from the Jin people," Zhen said softly, "So, you can't just leave, you have to change your family's identity. These operations are not difficult... It just takes a little time. Make careful arrangements."

A touch of joy welled up in Bai Ling's heart, but he was also extremely surprised to hear it.

It wasn't until this time that she realized that the queen in front of her was not an ordinary queen.

The things she promised were far beyond what a queen could do.

But Zhen Shi said it lightly, as if these were just trivial things.

Bai Ling couldn't help re-examining the woman in front of him - Zhen's age is a bit older than Qu's, but apart from their age, they also seem to be two completely different people, whether it's in mood or conversation...

Likewise, two completely different lives.

It was the first time for Bo Ling to see a woman who could still live so freely in the palace... Those reveries on the sick bed a few days ago naturally collapsed when facing Zhen Shi.

Maybe it's just that she herself is too jerky and doesn't understand the rules here, so she thinks that no one can live well here...

Bai Ling's eyes became a little sour again.

"By the way," Mrs. Zhen suddenly remembered something, "During this time, if you still have the energy, you can go to the General's Mansion. A few days ago, I heard the crown prince talk about the last time Shen Jichuan fell ill in the southern camp... you It was handled very well at that time. It is also good that you can go to chat with him these few days and talk."

Bo Ling nodded - this request is not too much.

"Others... I don't have anything else to say," Zhen said softly, "Is there anything else you want to ask me?"
