Chapter 262 The Truth
"Bao Yuan..." The court lady repeated the name softly, then frowned slightly, her eyelashes trembling slightly.

"Yes, Bao Yuan." Bai Ling nodded—even though the court lady couldn't see this action, she said softly, "Why did you go out at that time?"

The maid said in a low voice, "Yes... Jin Zhi asked me to go to the Ministry of Internal Affairs and report the matter of the Tongmu doll. I pushed open the door and saw a court lady I didn't recognize, bending over in the corridor outside our Chuxiu Palace. Waist, look around, as if looking for something..."

Bai Ling asked softly, "Should we bend over and look around, or stand by the carved window and look in?"

"Bend down and look around."

There was a sound of paper shaking from behind the screen, and Emperor Jianxi pulled out a piece of confession, while Qiu Shi hurriedly approached with a candlestick to illuminate Emperor Jianxi.

Bo Ling breathed a sigh of relief almost imperceptibly, "Then why, tonight, you want to tell Eunuch Huang that Baoyuan is standing by the carved window and looking into the yard?"

"Because that's what Jin Zhi told me after I captured that court lady."

Jin Zhi behind the screen uttered a sharp retort, but just after he finished speaking the first word, Zhang Fuhai who was beside Concubine Ning viciously covered his mouth.

Zhang Fuhai grabbed Jin Zhi's mouth hard, his nails pierced her roof directly, and the other hand pinched her outer jaw, and with a little force, she easily removed her temporomandibular joint.

The severe pain of the dislocation made Jin Zhi almost faint, and he didn't even have the strength to shout.

"Drag her out." Emperor Jianxi did not lift his head, still looking at the confession in his hand, "Twenty boards will be hit first."

Concubine Ning took a deep look at Zhang Fuhai, Zhang Fuhai forced a humble smile on his fleshy face, "I understand."

Lin Jieyu sat on a chair in the corner and watched Jin Zhi being dragged away with an inexplicable grunt. She finally understood that she was not the hunter of the night, and she had already become the prey at this moment—everyone here, They are all participating in this strangulation against her.

——Your Duke Ming wants you to die.

She turned her head to look at Berlin in disbelief.

Through the almost transparent tulle, Lin Jieyu couldn't see Bo Ling's expression clearly, but could only see her face and figure in bright and dark under the candlelight.

For the first time, an unprecedented fear enveloped Lin Jieyu's heart.

She felt that she had never been afraid of death.

She grew up in the dark alleys of Baihuaya, and she was used to seeing the so-called life and death since she was a child.It's nothing more than that the person you were chatting and laughing with the day before disappeared in this street alley the next day out of thin air.

After more than ten days, he turned into a carrion with soaked hair and was fished out of the river.

To die is to die, no matter how beautiful a person is, after death is just a pile of bad meat.

And those who flattered you in every possible way during their lifetime, and would do anything to make you smile, can turn around and fall into the arms of others.

Only being alive itself is real.

When something is eaten, it is eaten;
If you grab it baby, you grab it;
You enjoy the joy of this moment, then the joy of this moment is yours...

And all the good and bad reputations left behind, after two or three months, are like rainwater dripping into the center of the lake, nothing will be left behind, and no one will remember.

But at this moment, Lin Jieyu suddenly felt a little cold. She couldn't explain the reason, but felt that Bai Ling was coming with the wind and rain in front of her, and there was something hidden in it that frightened her.

Bai Ling also heard Jin Zhi's scream, her eyes casually glanced in Lin Jieyu's direction, and then looked back at the palace maid in front of her.

"What exactly did Jin Zhi say?" Bo Ling asked.

"She said that this matter will cause a big disturbance, and the Holy One will be furious. If I don't follow what she taught, she will definitely kill my nine clans afterwards..."

Concubine Ning secretly gritted her teeth behind the screen and said softly, "There is only one person in this world who can kill people from the nine clans!"

"Did she order anything else?" Bai Ling asked.

"Yes." The palace man replied softly, "She also ordered one thing not to be said."

"What is it?"

"The cats in the flower garden were brought by Jin Zhi from Qinyuan when there were no people outside in the afternoon. The servant girl wanted to catch a few more cats, but the cats were sensitive, and finally only caught one big cat." Lihua and a little three flower..."

……

In this way, Bo Ling completed the questioning of the four people in turn.

The original confession was basically overturned, and all the key information was reversed, from Bao Yuan to Jin Zhi.

"I should have finished all the questions I should ask." Bo Ling looked towards the screen, "Is there anything else you want to add, Your Majesty and ladies?"

Although there are still many details that are still unclear, there is no doubt about one thing - the oolong of the paulownia puppet tonight is completely a farce directed and acted by itself.

Concubine Ning looked at Lin Jieyu with a sneer.

Tonight's game has been decided.

After a moment of silence, Bai Ling said softly, "If not, the emperor and the ladies can go back to the main hall first. I still need a little time to wake them up from hypnosis."

"Just call us in front of us." Ning Bi looked at Zhang Shenxian who was beside him, "It's not too late."

Sure enough, Emperor Jianxi didn't move either, he leaned forward slightly to watch Bo Ling's movements, almost without taking his eyes off him.

Bo Ling still sat on the chair opposite the four of them, and his voice returned to its original calm.

"Next, I will count from the beginning. Every time you count a number, your consciousness will become clearer. When I count to one, you will open your eyes, regain consciousness, and your body will be relaxed and comfortable... "

Berlin's guidance is still soft and slow.

With each number, she gives a short hint, something along the lines of "You're getting clearer" or "Your body is getting back to feeling normal."

When the last number "ten" was announced, the four people opened their eyes at the same time.

Several people looked at Bai Ling with a complicated expression in front of them with clear eyes.

Almost a moment later, each of them jumped up from their chairs, kowtowed vigorously to the big man behind the screen with tears in their eyes - they all remembered what happened during the hypnosis process after they woke up.

The screen was removed by Huang Chongde, revealing the faces of Emperor Jianxi and several empresses.

"Come on," the corners of Emperor Jianxi's mouth twitched slightly because of his annoyance, "Take these—"

"Your Majesty," Bai Ling bowed and interrupted Emperor Jianxi, "I have something to say."

Emperor Jianxi lowered his head slightly, but his eyes shot out like arrows, "Do you have to say it now?"

"I have to say it now." Bo Ling looked at Emperor Jianxi's toes and said softly.

Emperor Jianxi took a deep breath, with obvious anger in his voice, "Say it."

"I beg the emperor to issue an order to hand over all these four palace servants to me."

silence.

"...You want me to spare them."

"Yes." Bai Ling's gaze gradually moved upwards, "Your Majesty, you don't care about your deeds when you do good deeds, and you don't have a filial son when you judge your deeds; you don't care about your deeds when you restrain evil, and you don't care about your deeds when you judge your mind...there are few perfect people in the world."

One addition:
The effect of hypnosis in this episode is exaggerated.

Although it is true that people in a state of hypnosis will be more likely to follow the instructions of others because they let go of their defenses, there is a bottom line for this kind of compliance.Once this bottom line is exceeded, even in a state of hypnosis, people will still refuse instructions and choose to protect themselves.

Hypnosis makes it difficult for people to do things that violate the self-principle-such as killing, committing suicide, or exposing themselves like in the plot.

Therefore, if this scene happened in reality, these palace people would not be as obedient as the story said.

In reality, hypnosis is more used to relieve anxiety, relieve pain, and treat addiction. It is a very rigorous and safe process. If you have the opportunity to experience it in the future, don't be afraid of it.
