Chapter 594 Sun Beiji's Interrogation
Bai Ling smiled softly, and her eyes met, she walked slowly towards Han Chong.

The officials were waiting for their messengers to come, but no one stepped forward to stop them.

Han Chong looked seriously injured.He had been lying in the imperial hospital for so long before his injuries healed slightly, but he was beaten back to his original form by the torture in Dali Temple tonight.

Although Bai Ling couldn't see anything for the time being, Han Chong knew that after tonight, his right arm would probably be lost.

Bo Ling stood in front of Han Chong, looking up at the man tied to the wooden frame.

"You have today too," she smiled softly, "It's really a reincarnation..."

Han Chong glanced at Bo Ling coldly, then closed his eyes and ignored him.

Bai Ling looked at the blood on Han Chong's face, "Is Mr. Heng Yuan also in the dungeon of Dali Temple tonight?"

Han Chong didn't answer.

Bai Ling laughed again, "It seems that I am here. Otherwise, Mr. Sun Ge probably wouldn't have called me."

"Mr. Sun Ge... is Mr. Sun Ge?"

Han Chong's gaze suddenly turned fierce. He opened his eyes and looked at Bo Ling, and a hoarse and dry sound came out of his throat—this was caused by shouting and lack of water for a long time.

Burling took a step back slightly.

Although she didn't understand where the anger in Han Chong's eyes came from, she felt a little bit pleased.

Not long after, the officer led her to another compartment.

In a prison temporarily converted into a value room, Bai Ling saw Sun Beiji again.

He sat behind the table in the middle of the room, and there were candle lamps standing on both sides of the table, illuminating Sun Beiji's cheeks.

On the side of the room against the wall, there is also a small table. Behind the table is a middle-aged clerk with a stack of white papers on the table. He is holding a pen in his hand, as if he is preparing for the next record.

Bo Ling looked at Sun Beiji again. Although his hair and beard were all white, the old man looked in good spirits tonight.Those eyes were bright and energetic, without the slightest sense of fatigue.

"Ge Lao." Bo Ling bowed and saluted.

"Get up," Sun Beiji said softly, "I haven't seen you in half a year, Baisi Yao seems to have changed again."

Berlin stood up.

She has always felt that she is not very familiar with this elder, because most of the time they don't meet each other, and even if they do meet, they rarely talk about anything other than pleasantries.

The officials at the side brought chairs and placed them three or four steps away from Sun Beiji's wooden table.

"Sit down." Sun Beiji said softly.

In the small and dim room, there was a distance and a wooden table between the two of them. Looking at the candles at the corner of the table, Bo Ling realized that tonight's questioning was about to begin.

"For the past six months, you have worked hard in Baihuaya." Sun Beiji whispered, "How are you doing these days?"

"All good." Bai Ling said softly, "But there are two things I want to ask Mr. Ge for a while... If you have anything you want to ask me, ask me now, I will tell you everything."

Sun Beiji sighed softly, "If I want to ask you tonight, it's a very confidential matter, so you must not hide anything."

"Understood." Bo Ling nodded, "Mr. Ge, may I ask?"

The clerk who had been sitting by the side lowered his head at this moment, and began to write vigorously tonight.

"Excuse me, Bo Siyao, during the three years when Mr. Heng Yuan was confined in the palace, you often visited him, didn't you?"

"Yes." Bo Ling nodded, "The emperor specially left me a decree, allowing me to enter and exit the Qinyuan in the inner palace at any time, so I will visit it every once in a while."

"Why do you want to see him?"

"..." Bo Ling thought for a moment—why did he come up with the idea of ​​going to Qinyuan to visit Mr. Hengyuan in the first place?

"Why don't you speak."

"...Maybe, it's because of a little compassion." Bai Ling said with downcast eyes, "After all, the night when the Song family and his son had an incident, if he hadn't suddenly brought someone to appear, the ending of that night might have been different. up...

"At that time, I heard the emperor said that the secret letter left by the empress would imprison him in Qinyuan forever, and I felt a little embarrassed.

"Elder Ge may not be very clear about the situation in Qinyuan at that time," Bai Ling said with a smile, "During that time, Mr. Hengyuan was really struggling in Qinyuan, because sometimes some of his regular meetings were withheld by the palace people. , so I occasionally bring some things that I can't finish at home.

"On the contrary, he taught me how to play chess." Bo Ling said softly, "Actually, during that time, I often talked with the emperor about some interesting things about me in Qinyuan... now it seems that maybe I shouldn't have said it .”

"Why?" Sun Beiji asked.

"I originally thought that the emperor would really lock Mr. Hengyuan inside forever. How did I know that he not only left the palace, but also had a new courtyard?" Bo Ling looked at the ground with some self-deprecation, "Maybe what I said, Let the emperor let go of his guard against this person."

Sun Beiji remained silent for a while, while he kept looking at the nearby documents from the corner of his eye, until he finally stopped writing temporarily, and then continued, "Do you think Mr. Hengyuan should be imprisoned in Qinyuan forever?"

"Ah."

"What is the reason?"

"Elder Ge, you can recall what has happened since the emperor reassigned Han Chong and returned to Qinyuan. Think about the emperor's sudden change."

Bo Ling whispered, some evidence from Wei Ying, she knew she couldn't say it, so she had to turn them into her own inferences.

"Sometimes, I do feel that Mr. Hengyuan is a pleasant person to get along with, but this person's heart of snakes and scorpions, his arrogance that regards human life as nothing...is really disgusting.

"The emperor himself doesn't know anything about it..." Bai Ling whispered, "I didn't realize that I was being used as a tool by others."

The clerk's pen stopped suddenly, and he looked up at Sun Beiji.

Sun Beiji also looked at him, and told him softly, "Record the truth and don't have any scruples."

"cocoa……"

"If it is pursued later, this old man will stand up to it." Sun Beiji added.

Only then did the clerk tremblingly write down Bai Ling's original words.

"During the three years when you were in and out of Qinyuan and learning chess with Lord Hengyuan, did you notice any traces of other people coming and going in Qinyuan?"

"No." Bo Ling whispered, "and I'm basically sure there is none."

"Oh?" Sun Beiji responded softly, "Where's the evidence?"

"The evidence is no longer in Pingjing," Bai Ling said softly, "If Mr. Ge still remembers it, he should know that there was a hidden guard of the Queen Mother by my side back then. I confirmed this with him."

"How did you come up with the idea to confirm this?" Sun Beiji asked again.

"Because Mr. Hengyuan seemed to have resigned himself to his fate at the time." Bai Ling said softly, "...but the incident itself made me feel suspicious, so there may have been more than a dozen times before and after, and the time was staggered to let Fourteen go. Followed for a while—but during that time, he hardly did anything extra except play chess.

Speaking of this, Bo Ling added another sentence, "The emperor should also know about these things."

"Why?"

"Because Shisi ran into Cheng Li by chance in Qinyuan." Bo Ling said softly, "At that time Cheng Li was also lurking in the dark, observing Mr. Hengyuan's words and deeds."
