Chapter 60: Father’s love is like a soldering iron.
In the Wenhua Hall, there was a constant sound of snapping, which was Boss Zhu waving thorn sticks to teach his son.
Although the thorn stick hurts, it does not hurt, and there are only twenty lashes, so Zhu Yuanzhang cherished the lashes very much. He made sure to let his son feel his strong fatherly love through every lash.
The first one to be whipped was the second child. King Qin was rough-skinned and thick-bodied, and his experience of being beaten was slightly better than that of King Yan. Where did twenty whips go? He gritted his teeth and passed.
The second one is the third child. Although King Jin is not tender-skinned, he is actually quite afraid of pain. But he is stronger by nature, how can he be compared with the second child?
What's more, the next King Yan who was beaten would definitely remain silent. If he cried out in pain, he would have to laugh at him for three months.
So not only did he grit his teeth, but he also opened his mouth and stared in pain, his face twisted, and he managed to hold back from shouting...
When the third child was done, he gasped and turned to look at the fourth child, giving him a provocative look.
The fourth child looked disdainful and endured twenty strong fatherly loves without any movement, and even yawned. As a result, his father was displeased and gave him ten more fatherly loves...
It was much more normal when it was Lao Wu's turn. After eating the last few times, he finally couldn't help but start moaning in pain.
Although hitting someone with a thorn stick doesn't hurt, it hurts!
Then there is the last one.
Zhu Yuanzhang wiped his sweat, moved his arms, picked up a new thorn stick, and rounded it...
Amid the roar of the wind, His Royal Highness the King of Chu's heart-rending screams could be heard.
"Nangqiu, you haven't been beaten yet! Why are you howling like a wolf? You scared me!" Zhu Yuanzhang was so angry that he whipped the king of Chu hard on his big cup butt.
‘Ouch~~’ A louder scream...
Zhu Zhen wasn't pretending, it really hurt! Every blow of father's love was like a soldering iron falling on his buttocks, and after a few blows he felt his buttocks were numb!
He was beaten by his father twice before, once with the soles of his shoes and once with a feather duster. Compared with this time, the pain level was like Brother Feng and Caihua comparing sales - the difference is huge!
The screams were so loud that Zhu Yuanzhang couldn't even remember how many whips he had been given, so he had to follow the principle of preferring more and less, and gave him a few more!
"Hit me more, beat me too much..." Zhu Zhen said with tears streaming down his face: "I keep counting."
"It's a good thing you did, what's wrong with a few more times?" Zhu Yuanzhang's fatherly love never stops.
"I don't dare anymore, I don't dare anymore..." Zhu Zhen cried loudly.
"Looking like a loser," Zhu Yuanzhang wished he could do it again, but the prince held him tightly.
"Okay dad, the sixth child is still a child, what if he gets beaten up?" Zhu Biao advised hard: "Just save your energy and hit me."
"You are indispensable. When you are done here, come back to Qianqing Palace with us. I will punish you alone!" Zhu Yuanzhang glared at him and then threw away the thorn.
"From tomorrow onwards, we will go to school every day. There will be no holidays during the first lunar month, rain or shine, and the homework will be doubled. Did you hear that?!" The loving father announced additional punishments.
"Ah..." The second and fourth children finally screamed.
"What a fart, it's not over yet!" Although Zhu Yuanzhang had agreed with Queen Ma, he still felt that it was too light. So he sneered: "Let's think about it again and see how we can teach you a lesson. When we think of it,
Let’s talk about it later!”
He can always regret it.
~~
The closed palace door finally opened, and Zhu Yuanzhang walked out of the hall feeling comfortable.
Concubine Hu Chong also rushed in crying to check on her son. Just now, her son cried so hard that her heart was broken.
When the two passed by each other, their shoulders bumped into each other, and Zhu Yuanzhang was knocked away by Concubine Hu Chong.
Fortunately, his lower body was stable, and he immediately stabilized his figure, covering his shoulder that was hit, and turned around and said angrily: "She did it on purpose, she must have done it on purpose..."
"Okay, I'm as knowledgeable as a girl." Empress Ma rolled her eyes at him and said, "How many more times did you hit Lao Liu?"
"Hey, we're not angry either. In fact, we just like her taste, it's spicy enough." Zhu Yuanzhang laughed and hurried away with the prince.
"Virtue." Empress Ma spat and went into the palace to check her son's anus one by one.
Of course, the second and fourth children don’t even look at it, they just lift their pants.
There is no big problem with the third and fifth children. The skin is not broken and the swelling will be reduced.
In fact, Lao Liu is the same, but his skin is a little tender, and the bloody marks are quite scary, and they only last three or two days.
Empress Ma had expected everything. There is no better wife than a husband. She knew better than to watch Zhu Yuanzhang shouting and killing his son all day long, but he only talked about it and always raised his hands high and put them down gently.
Of course, the premise is that you don't make him mad. Once that dog's temper gets the better of him, he can kill the prince as an enemy... let alone the other sons.
So she had to come before Zhu Yuanzhang took action, just to give him some relief to prevent him from being impulsive.
~~
Empress Ma first comforted Concubine Hu Chong, who was crying while holding her son, and then touched Lao Liu's head: "Zhen'er, your father taught you a lesson, do you know you were wrong?"
"I know, Queen Mother." Zhu Zhen blew snot bubbles from his nose and sobbed. In fact, he had stopped crying, but as soon as he entered his mother's arms, he felt so aggrieved that he couldn't help but cry...
Wow, I feel so wronged. I am obviously trying very hard to be a good person, but why do I always get beaten? Wow wow wow...
"Let Wang Defa carry him on your sedan, and hurry up and get some medicine when you get back. You know these things better than me." Empress Ma said to Concubine Hu Chong. She originally had something to ask Lao Liu, but seeing him crying like this, she decided
I don’t have the heart to ask.
"Yes." Concubine Hu Chong thanked the empress for her kindness. Otherwise, Zhu Zhen would not be able to ride in the sedan chair. The most he could do was find a door panel to carry him back. That would be unseemly...
~~
Zhu Zhen was carried out of Wenhua Gate by Wang Defa. He suddenly stopped crying and asked Wang Ma to stop.
Then he clasped his fists at the four brothers who limped out and said gratefully:
"Thank you all brothers for sharing your time. If you have difficulties in the future, I will also help you!"
He is telling the truth. Without his brothers to share the firepower this time, he will have to peel off his skin even if he doesn't die today.
Moreover, my father's opinion of me will be much worse. Well, I guess it won't be much better now...
"Okay, it's easy to say. We share the blessings and share the hardships." The second brother said with a smile.
"That virtuous brother's anus will never be idle in the future." The fourth brother also clasped his fists in return. "The green mountains will not change and the green water will flow forever. My brother will say goodbye to you!"
"Humph, you should thank me in other ways!" The third brother said proudly: "I am here as a wise king! So I don't think going to school every day and doing double homework is a punishment. Learning makes me happy! Just keep studying.
Always makes me happy!"
"Tell me to pretend to be a big-tailed wolf again!" Zhu Di slapped the wise king on the buttocks.
‘Ouch, ouch…’ The third brother immediately screamed.
Concubine Da Ding watched her brothers joking and playing around from a distance, and suddenly she felt unhappy and scolded Lao Qi in a low voice: "Why don't you get beaten?"
"Ah? It's nothing to do with me?" Lao Qi was shocked. Would it be a crime if he didn't get beaten?
"Idiot! You will be isolated this way! Remember, you have to be gregarious?!" Concubine Da Ding poked.
"Oh oh oh..." Lao Qi was poked so hard that his head shook, but it wasn't over yet.
"In order to teach you a lesson, my mother will give you those twenty lashes when I get back..." Concubine Da Ding said quietly.
‘Just take the opportunity to vent your anger!’ Lao Qi was on the verge of tears and roared silently and angrily.
