imperial psychologist

Chapter 595
Bo Ling said a few more details that she still had an impression of, and finally, she looked at Sun Beiji, "Hasn't the emperor mentioned this matter to Mr. Ge?"

Sun Beiji didn't answer.

After that, Sun Beiji continued to ask many more questions, and asked Bo Ling about the situation of Mr. Hengyuan when he was imprisoned in Qinyuan.

However, in those three years—as Bai Ling said, he really lived with a resignation to his fate. Even if Sun Beiji asked, Bai Ling couldn't answer more.

After more than an hour of questioning, Bo Ling was a little tired, but what made him even more tired was probably the various negations given by Bo Ling.

I haven't seen anyone coming in or out.

He didn't notice any dissatisfaction or resentment from Mr. Heng Yuan.

Nor did I hear anything wrong or ambitious from him.

"However..." Bo Ling suddenly frowned, "When I was imprisoned in the Punishment Department, he came to ask me specifically whether he would consider going to Qinyuan in the future."

Sun Beiji's eyes brightened slightly.

"Go to Qinyuan..." Sun Beiji murmured in a low voice, "How can he get you to go to Qinyuan?"

"There is always a way. Chen—the emperor can think of how to escape the golden cicada and lock me in the small courtyard. How can Mr. Hengyuan have no way to hide Chen Cang?"

Bai Ling said with deep eyes.

"I guess he probably wanted to take me under his command, but I refused and didn't ask for details... As for what happened afterwards, Elder Ge knows all about it."

Bo Ling looked at Sun Beiji calmly.

Sun Beiji's eyes were complicated - the girl in front of him probably didn't know the inside story of her being sent to Baihuaya at the time, maybe it was because of this that Sun Beiji felt a little shaky.

"The old man understands." He whispered, "Today was originally—"

"By the way... there is one more thing," Bai Ling frowned slightly, and she suddenly interrupted Sun Beiji, "Although we have never seen outsiders enter Qinyuan, Mr. Hengyuan and outsiders must have been here in the past few years. contacted."

"……how?"

"In the past few years, Mr. Hengyuan has been playing chess with the boss of the Baihua Yalan shop." Bo Ling said softly, "I previously entrusted Mr. Zheng Mi and Master Zheng to help me keep an eye on the details of the boss of the Lan shop, but Mr. No text given."

"The boss of Lan Zihao?" Sun Beiji frowned, "What's his name?"

"I don't know his real name. I only know that everyone calls him Lan Zhijun, and his close servants call him Lan Jun."

Bai Ling recalled, and described all the other courtyards she had seen, as well as the chess records newly sent by Heng Yuanjun.

Sun Beiji listened quietly.

Since Mr. Hengyuan moved out of the inner palace last year, although the emperor's attitude towards him has fluctuated, but generally speaking, he has been very lenient, and it is not news that he can communicate with friends outside.

It's just that, if he could still rely on the informants in the inner palace to compete against outsiders when he was in prison...it would be really scary.

There is actually a line buried by Mr. Heng Yuan in Baihuaya, how can one imagine...

It's really a centipede, dead but not stiff.

"The old man will investigate these matters in person." Sun Beiji said softly, "It's a great luck that Bai Siyao didn't agree to go to Qinyuan with Mr. Hengyuan. This gentleman lives in Pingjing, but he secretly planned thousands of miles away We are still investigating the specific situation."

Bandits...

Bai Ling's expression froze slightly.

"The old man just didn't finish his sentence," Sun Beiji said softly, "At first we didn't expect to come to ask Si Yao about anything, but after calling the imperial doctor to come to the prison for treatment last night, he asked if he could Call you to play chess again."

Bo Ling lowered her eyes, thinking of Han Chong who she saw just now, she said softly, "A body like Mr. Heng Yuan's should not be able to withstand any interrogation."

"We didn't torture him—it was also out of the same considerations. After all, his status is special, and the emperor still wants to save him and come back to interrogate him in person." Sun Beiji glanced at the clerk beside him, "Let's go here. "

The clerk nodded, continued to write a few more words, and then took out the ink pad and seal in his sleeve, first pressed his own square seal, and then pressed his own fingerprint.

Berlin followed suit.

There was no light in the dungeon, and Bo Ling couldn't be sure for a moment how long it had passed, but at this moment, she really felt sleepy.

"Master Ge, about Mr. Zheng's robbery in Baihuaya yesterday..." Bo Ling said softly.

"I've heard about it," Sun Beiji said softly. "As Pingjing's parental officer, Zheng Mi can't ignore this kind of evil that violates human relations."

"Then can I understand that the cabinet supports Mr. Zheng in this matter?"

Sun Beiji didn't answer immediately, but after a while, he said, "It will take some time."

"...What do you need time for?"

"We need to wait for the emperor's reply." Sun Beiji said softly, "Eunuch Yuan came to tell me about this in person last night. The matter of Jiaofang Secretary is not a big deal, but it is still a private matter of the palace. It is natural for the subordinates to punish me." If you have to be punished, Baihuaya will also be rectified, they have drawn up some measures, but without the emperor's approval, it is not easy to mess around right now."

Bai Ling was stunned for a while, and his expression gradually became puzzled.

"...The emperor is already on the front line now. I don't know how many excerpts he has to read every day. Will he read such a trivial matter as a child prostitute in a flower kiln in the capital?"

"This is indeed a problem," Sun Beiji said softly, "but now we still have to put the family and country first, so... this matter will wait until the emperor returns at the latest."

"But when will the emperor come back?"

Sun Beiji didn't answer, even if he knew this question, he wouldn't ask, not to mention he was not sure now.

If the original plan had been followed, the emperor would leave Beijing in April, and he would be able to return to Beijing in September after deducting the distance... But judging from the news he receives every day, Chen Yicong probably wants to directly supervise the army in Zhuozhou and watch the army of Dazhou Fight the defense battle this fall.

"Ten thousand steps back," Bo Ling continued, "When the emperor comes back, if he is victorious, then the whole world will praise his bravery. At this time, let the supervisor of ceremonies hand over such a sad note. Will they be willing? If the war does not go well and the emperor is unhappy, then at this time, let the chief of ceremonies hand over the papers, will they dare?

"Master Sun, I heard that you also took the position of Doctor Censor back then. Whether this matter is a private matter of the inner palace or an official matter related to the people's livelihood, you should know better than me."

Bai Ling's eyes were burning, and Sun Beiji didn't dodge, but replied in a low voice, "There are priorities, Bai Siyao, right now, there is nothing more important than the front line."

"I know," Bai Ling lowered his voice, "What's more, this matter has not been spread, and those children are not big figures... But my lord, don't you have a title in your heart? Master Zheng is willing to be angry at this time , can you... can you raise your hand too?"
