The sound was like thunder, which made Hu Fuchang tremble. His face was full of fear, and he did not dare to move.
Hu Weiyong pressed Hu Fuchang's hand: "Son, let's go back first and don't cause any trouble again."
Hu Fuchang thought of Shi Banzi that day, shuddered, put down his hand, and was helped away.
The doctor came to see Hu Fuchang and said that the injuries to his muscles and bones might leave him disabled.
Maybe it can be saved with good care.
Hu Fuchang lay on the bed, slapped the bed board, and scolded Hu Weiyong: "They say you are inferior to one person, and even a military officer dares to beat me. What's the use of a prime minister like you!"
Hu Weiyong knew that this time it was his impatience that had harmed Hu Fuchang, so he could only coax them in a low voice: "If you bear with me any longer, you can cut them into pieces when the time comes."
He was so angry that he said to Li Cunyi: "I didn't expect these useless things like the Wucheng Army and Horse Division to be so arrogant with Zhu Bai's power."
The key is that they learned from Zhu Bai and each one became more cunning than the other.
There was absolutely nothing he could do against them.
Because what they said was right, Lao Zhu had placed the Five Cities Military and Horse Division under Zhu Bai's jurisdiction.
It’s useless for anyone to come except Lao Zhu.
He dared to take action at first, but he didn't expect these people to be so bold and dare to fight him.
------
Liu Bowen also received news of Zhu Bai's disappearance.
He felt a little lost.
Zhu Bai is the smartest student he has ever taught. So smart that it scares him.
Now that Zhu Bai is missing, if he really dies outside, he will have one less opponent and helper.
What a shame.
However, no matter what, without Zhu Bai, everyone else is useless.
He just had to wait patiently until the day Zhu Biao asked him to come out again.
Xu Huizu heard about this while meeting friends over tea.
When he got home, he asked someone to bring wine, and he drank alone in the yard while stroking his hands and laughing.
He couldn't say it outside, because Zhu Bai was Zhu Biao's brother after all.
So I held it in until I got home to celebrate.
Ever since Zhu Bai gave him a lesson for drinking and archery, he vowed not to drink again.
So at this moment, his wife was a little worried and asked him: "Why is your husband like this?"
He put his hands on his hands and laughed: "I want to celebrate. The prince is finally free of constraints. We can also make great achievements."
Zhu Biao has such a deep affection for his brother that even if he knew that Zhu Bai would become a strong enemy in the future, he would not do anything to hurt Zhu Bai.
These ministers did not hesitate to be evil, and it was useless to remind him constantly.
Now Jube himself is missing, good, good! !
Zhu Biao doesn’t have to be in a dilemma, and they don’t have to worry!
He poured himself a full glass of wine: "Tonight, I want to get drunk before I stop."
When Queen Ma heard that Zhu Bai was missing, her first reaction was to call Concubine Li Shu over and kneel down.
She was so angry that she burst into tears. She patted the armrest of the chair and said, "Although I have so many sons, only the twelfth son can help me share my worries. As an elder brother, why don't you think highly of him?"
In fact, she had a worse guess that Zhu Ping did it on purpose.
It must be because Zhu Bai ruined the Li family's business many times.
This was the time to report and arrange the work in the morning, and all the concubines were there.
Concubine Li Shu was reprimanded in front of so many concubines. Her face turned red. She didn't even dare to enter the house. She knelt down in the yard and said with tears: "I deserve to die. It was His Highness the King of Qin who was negligent. I am also very embarrassed." I feel sorry for His Royal Highness King Xiang.”
To put it bluntly, the child is older than the mother.
Besides, Zhu Xi and the others have always been by your side to teach and raise you when they were young.
Why do you always blame me when something goes wrong?
Over there, Xiangyun ran in and knelt down: "Empress, Concubine Shun suddenly fainted when she heard that His Highness Prince Xiang was missing."
Zhu Ju screamed and cried in fright, and now the palace was in chaos.
Empress Ma immediately stood up: "Who can talk so quickly? Just tell her. Go and send the imperial doctor to Concubine Shun."
She left Concubine Li Shu and hurried away with her people.
He didn't even tell Concubine Li Shu to get up, so Concubine Li Shu didn't dare to move.
It's early summer now, and it's still cool under the shade of the trees.
Wherever there is no cover, the sun is as hot as fire.
Seeing the sun rising, Queen Ma has not returned yet.
Concubine Li Shu was covered in sweat from the sun, her face turned pale, she was swaying, and she was about to faint.
The maids did not dare to come over and hold an umbrella for her, for fear that Queen Ma would suddenly come back.
After a full hour, Queen Ma came back. When she saw Concubine Li Shu, she seemed to have just remembered: "Hey, why are you still kneeling? Get up quickly."
The maids then helped Concubine Li Shu up.
Queen Ma sat down and said, "Now that Concubine Guo Hui's body has recovered, you can rest and let her do the hard work."
Everyone knew what was going on, but everyone was pretending to be stupid.
Concubine Li Shu didn't dare to complain at all, and said with a smile: "If my sister is willing to work hard, it will be better."
She asked someone to go to her palace to get the key, bowed her head and presented it to Queen Ma with both hands.
In fact, she should have handed over the key voluntarily just now, but she was afraid that Queen Ma would think she was angry.
Empress Ma added: "You are older now, and you are not as healthy as you were a few years ago. If you have nothing to do, don't go out, so as not to catch the cold. If something happens, I will naturally ask someone to come and tell you."
This is equivalent to grounding Concubine Li Shu.
If Zhu Bai comes back safely, she may come out again.
If Zhu Bai hadn't come back...
Concubine Li Shu shook her body, bowed her head and saluted: "I understand."
Lao Zhu reluctantly read the memorial and went to Kunning Palace.
Empress Ma's eyes were red and she asked Lao Zhu in a warm voice: "Your Majesty, don't be too worried. Lao Twelve is very smart and will not let himself suffer."
Lao Zhu is a murderer, but he is very kind to his relatives. Especially I hate to see my children suffer and get sick.
In the third year of Hongwu's reign, Zhu Qi died at the age of two. Old Zhu did not touch a grain of rice or drink a drop of water all day long.
Fortunately, his tenth son Zhu Tan was born a few days later, and Lao Zhu gradually became less sad.
He was particularly fond of Zhu Bai, but he could only imagine how painful and anxious he must be at this moment.
Lao Zhu murmured: "Although he is naughty, he does not deserve to suffer such a disaster. We scold him every day, but he is actually a filial and good boy. It is our fault. We knew that Li Jinglong was not useful and forced Lao Shi to do so. Second, take him with you. Even if Li Jinglong didn’t mean it, he must have dragged down Lao Twelve. It’s all our fault..."
Queen Ma stepped forward, hugged him, and patted him gently.
She didn't know how to comfort him.
Because she is afraid too.
I dare not say anything else, but with Zhu Bai here, Zhu Biao at least does not have to worry about money and can safely take over a rich treasury.
Queen Ma said after a long time: "Your Majesty, please go and see Concubine Hu Shun. Concubine Hu Shun has fainted, and the imperial doctor has prescribed some calming medicine for her. She should have woken up by now."
Lao Zhu was stunned for a moment and nodded: "Yes, we should go see her. If that traitor comes back and sees Concubine Hu Shun falling ill, he will definitely make trouble."
