No words can describe Lao Zhu's mood at this moment.
Holding the pearl of wisdom, experiencing disappointment, experiencing hope, and now despair.
The gears of fate were turning, and as an emperor, he had no choice but to feel a deep despair.
This money is gone, and so is my little treasury.
The days are hopeless.
"The flowers are so clean!"
Lao Zhu suddenly said this, and the smile on his lips made Mao Xiang shudder. He did not dare to speak, but lowered his head and acted like an ostrich.
"Instruct the prince to come to see us immediately."
"According to the order."
Zhu Biao was resting in his mansion and was bored because he was grounded.
At this time, I heard Lao Zhu’s summons.
The wind is strong and the rain is heavy, which is really terrible.
Zhu Biao had no choice but to go to the palace in the rain.
As soon as he reached the door and stepped into the hall, Lao Zhu suddenly shouted loudly.
"Kneel down."
What the hell? No doubt, Zhu Biao was confused at this moment.
As a conditioned reflex, his legs went weak.
Zhu Biao fell to his knees on the ground.
Lao Zhu looked at the water drops on Zhu Biao's body, and the weather represented his mood very well.
On a rainy day, I am either giving birth to a child or spanking the child. Idleness is also idleness.
He picked up the cane that he had prepared long ago and walked step by step to Zhu Biao's side.
Zhu Biao was frightened when he saw this posture. He said, "I can't do it!"
With a snap, the rattan made a crisp sound as it hit the ground.
Zhu Biao was sweating profusely, and his eyes were turning gray. He didn't hit him this time, maybe because he was soft-hearted, but it might not be the case next time.
"Father."
There was no use calling him dad. Lao Zhu really couldn't control himself this time. Without answering, he raised the cane and pulled it down.
That trajectory, that speed.
Seriously.
At this time, Zhu Biao was extremely flexible.
He didn't know where the strength came from his bent legs, and he jumped forward. Kankan ran away before the cane arrived, making Lao Zhu's attempt in vain.
Hiding in the corner, Zhu Biao was still frightened. When he saw Lao Zhu reacting, he was ready to fight again, so he waved his hand quickly.
"Father, please tell me clearly what mistake I have made, otherwise I will not obey."
No matter if you accept it or not, I want to beat you today.
It is natural for me to beat my son.
Without saying a word, the cane in Lao Zhu's hand fell down.
Jumping three feet high, Zhu Biao's body was extremely flexible and he used his body skills to avoid this attack.
Then, without waiting for Lao Zhu to react, he took three steps and two steps to reach the door and confronted Lao Zhu.
You can hit me, but you have to let me know the reason! I don't accept your silence or saying anything.
"Father, what's going on, can you let me die and understand?"
I can’t understand it anymore, nothing can go back.
"Catch him for us."
Mao Xiang was not moved by these angry words at all.
You and your family are fighting, let's get involved, and if you feel distressed after the fight, let's forget it!
The guards saw that Mao Xiang didn't move at all, and they lay down calmly without making any other movements.
This is completely unreasonable! We can't stay here anymore, we have to go somewhere reasonable.
Without anyone stopping him, Zhu Biao walked out of the door, grabbed an umbrella, and rushed to Queen Ma's residence in Kunning Palace despite the heavy rain.
Outside the palace, seeing Zhu Biao coming, the palace maid quickly put away her umbrella for Zhu Biao and wiped the water drops on Zhu Biao's clothes.
After tidying up a little, Zhu Biao hurried into the hall.
Queen Ma was reading under the light. When she saw Zhu Biao coming in a hurry, she put down the book in her hand and asked.
"It's raining so hard and it's dark. Why are you here so late?"
I don’t want to come either! But some people are unreasonable.
"Mother, you have to make the decision for me! My father is indiscriminate and wants to beat me without any reason. I am unjust!"
Lao Zhu also lost his mind.
He actually followed him closely and followed him all the way to Kunning Palace.
The familiar scene made Lao Zhu wake up.
When he came, he threw the rattan aside, straightened his clothes, and stepped into the hall.
Calm and calm, those who didn’t know thought nothing happened!
Zhu Biao was typing a small report to Queen Ma when he suddenly felt a chill on his back. He turned around and saw that Lao Zhu was actually in front of him.
He quickly hid behind Queen Ma, fearing that Lao Zhu would hit him.
Queen Ma picked up the teapot, poured a cup of tea out of it, and handed it to Lao Zhu.
Lao Zhu took it and drank it in one gulp.
At this time, Queen Ma asked.
"Tell me! What's wrong with Biao'er?"
There is no love without reason, and there is no hate without reason.
As a pillow person, Queen Ma is very familiar with Lao Zhu's character.
"On a rainy day, spanking the children is just idle time."
"Tell the important point."
I can’t stand the joke!
But what to say!
I was staring at Zheng Xiong's money, but Zhu Biao messed it up!
Big and small money are all gone.
It's okay to say it, but do you mean you don't want to lose face by saying it?
"Send him over here. He walks in with his right foot. The man is on the left and the woman is on the right. He doesn't understand etiquette. A good beating is not too much!"
Queen Ma's forehead was throbbing with veins, not too much, but you are fooling me.
"Zhu Chongba, are you going to say it or not?"
Lao Zhu smiled bitterly in his heart, hey, there's no way to escape.
"Biao'er is a good kid. He thinks about the people in everything and is quite like a father."
Who do you praise? After being glared at by Queen Ma, Lao Zhu stopped joking.
"But! Sometimes you are not mature enough to do things, and you are a little too young."
"For example, this tax payment and giving rewards to lower officials is a no brainer."
"Zheng Xiong has done this. It's not the first time. He doesn't care. It won't work if you get involved. Although it will help your reputation, it is also a whirlpool. If you get caught in it, it will not work. It’s hard to pull away.”
"I'm beating you for your own good, so that you don't end up in someone else's trap later."
It's really good for me, thank you.
After listening to Lao Zhu's words, Zhu Biao was confused.
I didn’t understand a sentence or two, and I still didn’t understand them even when they were put together.
What taxes? What reward? I have only chatted with Zheng Xiong for a few days in the past two days, and it was about your business and what it has to do with me.
Besides, does my reputation really have anything to do with me?
Zhu Biao doubts life, and Queen Ma is doubtful.
"For that matter, there's no need for you to hit him!"
"You can improve your memory by beating it, right?"
Makes some sense but not much.
However, Queen Ma did not pursue the case this time.
"Whether we want to stay out of it or not, we've made a decision. We'll decide after the news gets out and we'll see what happens!"
"Girls still understand me."
What the hell, this is, I am the person involved, I am the one who suffers, and I haven’t done anything!
After talking for a long time, no one cares about me? Ask me if I know anything?
My father and mother, who is the fool?
Don't you understand the problem?
"Father, Queen Mother..."
Before Zhu Biao finished speaking, he was interrupted by Lao Zhu.
"Biao'er, please don't interact with Zheng Xiong in the future. We admit that the boy is capable, but there are some things that I didn't consider. Next time I get you involved, you should speak up first and we will give you a reference. You are making a decision. You know. Yet?"
