imperial psychologist

Chapter 196

Prince Gong yelled angrily, and raised the bamboo whip again, a lock of gray hair fell from the corner of his forehead.

Flushed cheeks, bulging veins, bloodshot eyes, panting with rage.

Such a gawkish father suddenly made Shizi feel a little strange.

In the past, when he was being beaten and trained, he always lowered his head and never dared to look into his father's eyes—because those eyes always carried a terrifying majesty when they were angry, but today, he looked into his father's eyes. There was a fear he knew so well.

This kind of strangeness made Shizi doubt for a moment, and he clearly felt a crack in a certain part of his heart.

The prince's gaze made Prince Gong flustered for a moment for no reason, but after a brief eye contact, the prince's unrepentant, even surprised eyes completely angered him.

"Don't look at me like that!"

Prince Gong's bamboo whip fell directly towards Shi Zi's face, Shi Zi didn't expect it, and after a loud whipping sound, a clearly visible whip mark was left on his cheek.

Almost at the moment of attack, Prince Gong regretted it.

Shizi touched his left cheek in disbelief, and a sharp pain was coming from here.

Prince Gong's hand froze there, and the bamboo whip also fell, bounced twice on the ground, and finally landed at his feet.

"My lord! There's an order from the palace!" Suddenly there was an announcement from outside the study, "People have entered through the south gate and are heading to the living room."

"……understood."

Prince Gong took the opportunity to take a few steps towards the door, avoiding the eyes of the prince, and asked solemnly, "Which father-in-law from the palace is here?"

"It's Eunuch Qiu!" The voice outside the door replied quickly.

Prince Gong was almost stunned there, as if he couldn't believe his ears, and asked again, "...Who is it?"

The person outside the door shouted again, "It's Mr. Qiu Shiqiu! He said he came here specially for the son!"

It's Qiushi...

It turned out to be Qiu Shi, not Yuan Zhen?

Before Prince Gong could react, Shizi had already stood up from the ground, turned around without saying anything, and walked out alone.

"Open the door." Shizi ordered in a low voice to the servants guarding both sides of the gate.

The two servants didn't dare to do anything, they stood there and bowed even lower. The prince gritted his teeth and pushed them away. mother outside.

The princess looked at the scar on Shizi's face, and was so shocked that she couldn't speak for a moment.

"I'm fine, concubine mother." The son turned his face slightly and looked at the servant standing outside, "Where is Eunuch Qiu, lead the way."

……

In the living room in the front yard of the palace, Qiu Shi waited there for a long time before he heard footsteps outside.

Shi Zi and Prince Gong rushed forward, but both father and son seemed a little out of place, as if they were dragged into the field for ten or eight laps—— Shi Zi kept his head down, and Prince Gong's sideburns Sweaty.

When someone approached, Qiu Shi jumped up in fright, "This face of my son, is this face...?"

Prince Gong unconsciously twisted his shoulders. He was thinking about how to cover up the scar on Shi Zi's face along the way. Thinking of Shizi's last look, he really couldn't open his mouth.

"I was injured when I was practicing arrows in the garden this morning." Shizi turned his face away, keeping the injured side away from Qiu Shi's sight, "Don't worry, father-in-law, this kind of minor injury will be added several times a month." time, get used to it."

"Oh my God..." Qiu Shi walked over to have a look in distress, then shook his head and said, "If the master sees this, how distressed I am."

"Eunuch Qiu doesn't need to talk about this with Father." Prince Gong felt a little guilty at the side, "So as not to worry Father."

Qiu Shi shook his head again and again, "I don't dare to hide this, if the emperor suddenly becomes happy in two days and calls the son to enter the palace, will he know it as soon as he sees it? It's better to send the imperial doctor to see it as soon as possible, and don't leave it on your face." Scars are good."

"You don't have to make such a big move..." Prince Gong frowned, "Eunuch Qiu is here today, does the emperor have any wishes for the son?"

Qiu Shi was startled, and quickly patted his forehead, "That's right, my lord, my son, let's talk about the serious things first...there is an edict."

Both Prince Gong and the prince knelt down in front of Qiu Shi.

Qiu Shisu Rong opened his mouth, first he greeted the son with a few words, and then he praised his benevolence and benevolence.In addition to using Jiaolong skin as armor for the prince, Emperor Jianxi also gave an additional horn bow newly made in the palace, which shows his concern.

Prince Gong heard mixed feelings from below—Emperor Jianxi never intended to pursue Jiaolong's death in vain, not even the slightest bit of blame.

Obviously he guessed wrongly what Emperor Jianxi meant again.

The prince has kowtowed to thank him at the other end.

Qiu Shi stepped forward, took out an inch-long peace talisman from his bosom, and put it in Shizi's bosom, "The emperor asked for a talisman from Immortal Zhang in Xianlingyuan these days, and this son wears it on his body, it can keep us safe."

"Thank you, grandpa, for remembering." The prince bowed to thank him, and directly hung the peace amulet tied with a red string around his neck.

After announcing the decree, Qiu Shi quickly leaned over, helped the prince up from the ground, and stood aside by himself, bending his back a little lower than before.

Prince Gong got up and personally sent him out of the palace. Along the way, he asked many questions about Emperor Jianxi's recent daily necessities. Qiu Shi answered them one by one. Before leaving, he praised Prince Gong for his honest and filial piety. .

Prince Gong felt that the praise was harsh, but he still smiled calmly.

After sending Qiu Shi away, the smile on his face faded immediately, he turned around and walked back to the house quickly, and the servants around him quickly followed.

"Where is your son?" Prince Gong asked.

"It should be to the princess's place." The servant replied softly.

Prince Gong's footsteps slowed down, his expression became a little subtle, his throat moved slightly, and he sighed very softly, "Forget it, let his mother coax him. Now you send someone to tell Master Zhang to come to the house, and then Say yes..." Prince Gong thought for a while, "It's about the son's homework, I have something to ask him."

"okay!"

……

In the Hall of Mental Cultivation, Emperor Jianxi had already had his breakfast and was sitting alone, limp, holding a volume of memorials and reading carefully.

The memorial was extremely long, Emperor Jianxi only read about one-third of the content, but the other end of the memorial had already dropped to the ground.

He flipped through a few more pages, threw the memorial on the table, and looked at Huang Chongde, "How many people are on Han Chong's list."

"A total of 140." Huang Chongde replied softly.

Emperor Jianxi put his hand on the long page of the memorial, and said softly, "There are more than 100 people, and the crimes involved in each of them are listed in such detail. He is willing to work hard."

"Oh, that's not all." Huang Chongde added from the side.

"What else?"

Huang Chongde turned around, walked to the low table at the side, and took out a booklet that was bigger than that in Emperor Jianxi's hand.

"He also handed over another list of about 900 people, all of whom are involved in the Hu Yishu case," Huang Chongde replied slowly, "I checked it roughly this morning, and it's the same as this one. Listed everyone's names, official positions, and reasons for involvement."
