Empress Ma's expression was a little solemn. If she could scare the third child like this, then Biao'er must be serious about it. If he accidentally made a mistake, it would be a major event that would shock the government and the public.
Lao Zhu scratched his head after standing up, and then slowly sat back down. This move made the women in the hall bewildered. They knew that you were always partial, but they never expected to be like this.
The second child is unlucky, but the good boy is also his own flesh and blood. He was not picked up on the roadside, or the adopted son he adopted during the war, but he still doesn't care if he is beaten to death?
What's more, the second child is not a middle-aged prince who has not spent much time with his father and is in a slightly awkward situation. He is the King of Jin, second only to the prince and the eldest among the kings.
If even he is like this, it is conceivable that the concubines who have sons can't help but feel a little bit sad about the death of a rabbit and a fox, as well as a hint of jealousy and hatred.
"Chongba, why are you still sitting down? Go and stop Biao'er."
"Hmph." Zhu Yuanzhang snorted coldly: "What, his elder brother hit him wrong, didn't he? An ineffective thing should have a long memory!"
Empress Ma also ignored the rules at this time and stepped forward to drag her: "That can't be done at this time, let alone beating her to death. If there is anything, you, as my father, should come and discipline her."
"A brother is like a father."
The concubines were speechless. Although they said this, you are as strong as an ox and so good. Why do you let the boss discipline the younger brothers like this?
King Jin's mother-in-law woke up and begged quickly, and Lao Zhu reluctantly stood up. Queen Ma quickly followed. The other concubines looked at each other in confusion, and the prince still followed.
As for the concubines who did not have a prince or were only princesses, they did not move. They sat quietly drinking tea and talking quietly to their close friends. From the looks of it, there was inevitably a look of gloating on the misfortune.
After all, people with princes usually look down on them and those without princes. They have to bear all the burden on them. They think that they have children and everything is enough. But now it seems that everything may not be as they expected, and there are still many things.
It's going well.
Soon, everyone rushed to the side hall, and Liu Jin did not dare to stop them. To be honest, he felt that it was almost done, and he would have to go in to persuade them even if the Holy Spirit didn't come.
Moreover, the imperial doctor had been called long ago and was waiting in a nearby cubicle. At this time, he also came out to greet the driver, carrying a box full of medicine for bruises.
Lao Zhu led the people and pushed the door open. The first thing he saw was Biao Er, who was panting and throwing away the objects in his hands, turning around and saluting, his figure swaying a little. He subconsciously ordered: "Where is the imperial doctor, please show it to the prince quickly.
"
The Queen Mother and Concubine Jin had already rushed towards her son who was not making any movement on the bed. She was shaking tremblingly and stretched out her hand to test his breathing.
Seeing that the old doctor really wanted to diagnose the prince first, Queen Ma quickly stopped her and said, "See Prince Jin first."
The imperial physician is naturally incompetent. It turns out that it is difficult to disobey the sacred orders, and he has been in the palace for a long time, so he trusts the prince's discretion in his actions. Besides, it is not that easy for a young and healthy man to be beaten to death.
Lao Zhu also came back to his senses and quickly turned his eyes to his second son. After a few glances, he knew it in his heart. He just fainted from the pain of being beaten. During the march, a soldier made a mistake and was beaten like this with dozens of sticks.
Very normal.
When he was just starting to make a start in the army, he was framed by the Guo brothers and fainted from the pain of being beaten with a cane. It was Xu Da who carried him back.
However, there is still a bit of heartache in the eyes. Some things may seem like nothing to me, but when it happens to my children, I still can't bear it. It hurts more than if it hits myself.
"Father, Emperor, Mother."
Empress Ma frowned and reprimanded: "You are brothers and blood relatives. If there is anything you can't talk about, why would you beat your brother like this?"
Zhu Biao bowed to be trained, but after his mother finished speaking, he straightened his back: "As the eldest brother, I should take care of my brothers and sisters, unite my brothers and sisters, love my sisters, respect my father, the emperor and my mother, and enjoy the family relationship."
happy."
"It is true that the second brother, as a prince of the imperial court, abused his power and persecuted human lives for his own selfish interests, which caused widespread resentment among the local people. He is regarded as the crown prince by his father-in-law, and his elder brother by his private son, so he had to teach him a lesson in order to make him feel guilty.
Caution, only then will you restrain yourself from your actions in the future, and think twice before acting."
Princess Jin gritted her teeth and said: "That is what the people below used the name of King Jin to cause trouble. The Holy Emperor punished them severely and ransacked their homes and beheaded them to restore justice to the people. King Jin also received a stick punishment, why did the prince still want to do it?"
…”
Zhu Biao listened quietly, without bowing or refuting anything. When he saw that he wanted to continue speaking, Lao Zhu was unwilling and reprimanded: "Shut up! In my humble opinion, it is because of your arrogance that I let Lao
The second oldest and the third oldest dare to act like this."
"Your Majesty, the King of Jin is also the flesh and blood of my concubine who was pregnant with you for ten months. I dare not ask for anything else, but you cannot be so partial."
"Is it because we are biased or because he doesn't live up to his expectations? It's okay if he can't compare with the prince. He can't even compare with his younger brothers like the fourth and fifth sons. He feels miserable all day long. Isn't it enough that we gave him a noble family background in Tianhuang?
!"
“I don’t have the ability to govern the country, I don’t have the courage to fight on the battlefield, I don’t have the ability to farm in the palace, I don’t even bother to show my filial piety to my elders, and I’m already getting married, so why should I and the prince walk together step by step?
Can't you pull him?"
"Then...then Father...Father, why don't you give up your son and minister to death?"
A faint voice sounded, and Zhu Xi woke up at some point. Princess Li, Queen Mother of Jin Dynasty, quickly defended her son: "He is not awake yet, he is confused."
She could say some things, and the emperor, queen, and prince would not care about her because she was compassionate towards him, but Zhu Feng, a prince who already had a title, could not say anything with any resentment.
Mrs. Li took Zhu Ming's hand and cried, "How can you say such stupid things? Isn't your child going to kill your mother and concubine? It doesn't matter, we have a companion when we go on the road together."
The late King of Chu also rushed in and began to cry. Seeing this, the other concubines also covered their sleeves and sobbed cooperatively. Zhu Yuanzhang shook his sleeves: "Get out of here. Who asked you to come here to cause trouble? Go back to the palace and educate the prince well, otherwise
If we are asked to take action in the future, we will never be as light as the boss."
Looking at the miserable look of King Jin, is this called lightness? The cries of the concubines suddenly became more sincere, otherwise they would not have cried for her given Concubine Li's usual behavior.
Soon the concubines withdrew. They did not dare to play any tricks in front of the emperor. Most of the people who could have the prince by his side were those who had served him for many years. How could it be that after so many years, it was still not clear that the only people the emperor really cared about were the queen and the emperor?
Children, they are nothing more than tools for spreading branches and leaves.
Empress Ma also took Li away: "Let the father and son brothers talk to each other. The imperial doctor said it's nothing serious. If you take good care of yourself, you will recover. If you don't talk about it now, there will be big trouble in the future."
Mrs. Li could only obey. She didn't know how she could have been born. It was not that Ping'er had no talent, but he had been oppressed by the prince since he was a child and could never get into the eyes of his father. That's why he gave up on himself until now.
In the palace, she could still free herself from restraints from time to time, but she was about to get married, establish a palace, and end a feudal dynasty. If he acted out of temper and caused trouble at that time, his father and brother would really not tolerate him.
Mr. Li was crying so much that he couldn't stand up. He wished he had died and his children were debts. Over the years, she had tried her best to persuade him, but it was still useless. The anger he was holding in his heart just couldn't be let go.
.
When everyone was almost gone, Zhu Biao said to Zhu Xi, who had his head buried: "The chief you sent to Shanxi to collect grain deliberately wanted to cause death. Don't you have any vigilance in employing people?"
"Do you know the origin of your new favorite in the palace?"
Zhu Ming replied in a hoarse voice: "I knew about Hu Weiyong's people a long time ago."
Zhu Tie looked at his brother in astonishment. The situation in the imperial court was actually quite clear. This was the example of the founding of the country in all dynasties. Hu Weiyong became prime minister by relying on his honor. Naturally, he was not with the Zhu family.
