The stupid son of Chongba

Chapter 114: Fight against Old Zhu! Zhu Ju, who is stubborn, will be thrown into the prison!

"I'm so thirsty!"

The moment he opened his eyes, Zhu Ju felt like his throat was about to smoke.

"Okay, Mom will get you some water."

The time to appreciate her son's quiet beauty is always short. When Ma Xiuying heard Zhu Ju's howl, she sighed softly and got up to find water.

"Drink it, little ancestor!"

Gudong, Gudong!
Zhu Ju drank the whole glass of water in one breath, and the dryness in his throat was finally relieved.

As soon as I felt comfortable, I felt a piercing pain in my ears!
"Ouch!"

"Mom...what are you doing! Let go, let go!"

Ma Xiuying heard him shouting, but she refused to let go. She just held his ears and said with an unhappy look on her face:
"Just tell me the truth!"

"Where on earth did you go today? Not only did you come back so late, but you were also so exhausted that you scared me!"

"Hurry up and tell me, or you'll lose your ears!"

Zhu Ju grimaced in pain and begged for mercy.

"Mom, I was wrong, I was wrong!"

"Don't bother, I confess, I confess everything!"

Upon hearing this, Ma Xiuying loosened her hand and pointed a finger at Zhu Ju's forehead.

"You, you are such a loser! You can't stand being grabbed on the ears. If you were caught by the enemy on the battlefield, you would be the first to rebel!"

She said unhappily,

"Confess! Don't try to play tricks on me. I will confront Mao Xiang tomorrow! He is also unreliable. I still trusted him so much."

Zhu Ju: “…”

At this moment, Zhu Ju felt a little guilty.

It’s not that he doesn’t want to tell the truth, he just doesn’t know where to start!

Besides, the mess I made today was indeed a bit big. If I were to tell the truth...

He was a little worried that my heart couldn't take it...

"talk!"

Seeing Zhu Ju hesitating, Ma Xiuying's brows raised again and she pretended to frown.

But at this moment, there was a sudden noise outside the house.

"Where is that rebellious son?"

"Tell him to get out! We must chop him alive today!!!"

Old Zhu's roar spread throughout Kunning Palace, frightening all the servants and maids so much that they all fell to their knees and trembled.

"Mother, it's not good!"

Cuizhu ran in and said hurriedly,

"I don't know why His Majesty suddenly got so angry! He even had a knife in his hand and was looking for His Majesty the King of Wu!"

Ma Xiuying's face suddenly changed when she heard this.

At this moment, the door was kicked open with a bang. Zhu Yuanzhang, holding a long knife, immediately locked his eyes on Zhu Ju who was half lying on the couch.

"Rebel!"

The moment he saw Zhu Ju, Lao Zhu's eyes almost spit fire, and the blade pointed directly at Zhu Ju!
"Zhu Chongba! What are you crazy about?"

Ma Xiuying didn't know what was going on at the moment, but out of maternal instinct, she protected Zhu Ju behind her without hesitation, staring at Zhu Yuanzhang and shouting,

"Put down the knife!"

"I told you to put the knife down, you are a dead man!!!"

The Hedong Lion's Roar, which had not been used for a long time, roared out from her mouth again, shaking the entire Kunning Palace three times!

"Girl, get out of the way!"

This time, Zhu Yuanzhang fought back, pointing at Zhu Ju and gritting his teeth,

"Do you know what this bastard did outside today?"

"He went to a brothel! He had a big fight with Li Qi, Hu Peng, Lu Xian and others over a prostitute!"

"Shame on you, shame on you! A prince is going to snatch a prostitute from someone else! You are such a rebellious son, you might as well just marry a prostitute. You have brought shame upon our Zhu family!"

Da da da!
Da da da!
The jade pendant on his chest vibrated violently, and streams of heat rushed into Zhu Ju's body, instantly restoring his spirits.

Hearing Lao Zhu's angry scolding, Zhu Ju felt a little unhappy, and stood up and retorted:
"What's wrong with me going to a brothel? I was just curious and went there to have a look. Who knew I'd run into those three bastards?"

"Don't yell at me! How did I embarrass you? I didn't do anything. That courtesan threw herself at me and I ignored her. Can you be so calm?"

"If you ask me, I still brought honor to the Zhu family!"

Zhu Yuanzhang: "!!!"

"Fuck your mother's fart!"

Old Zhu was furious and said angrily,

"Give face? You still give face after you make such a big fuss!"

"Let me ask you, why did you attack Li Qi, Lu Xian and the others? Don't tell me you don't know their identities!"

"You are so capable! You cut off Lu Xian's arm and destroyed Li Qi's life. Have you ever considered the consequences of doing so? How...how are you going to explain to Li Shanchang and the others?!"

"You rebellious son, if I don't chop you off today, you'll do something even more outrageous tomorrow!"

Ma Xiuying listened to the quarrel between the father and son, looking a little confused.

Before she could understand, Zhu Ju suddenly jumped off the bed, stiffened his neck and raised his head and said:
"Zhu never considers the consequences when doing things!"

"Li Qi not only insulted my sister, but also used despicable means to oppress the courtesan. Such a filthy and vulgar person should be exterminated from all descendants!"

"Lu Xian behaved perversely and harbored malicious intent. He took the initiative to attack me and even mobilized people from the Inspection Office. Breaking his arms would be the least of his punishment! I am still restraining myself!"

"As for Hu Peng, I just don't like him!"

"I had a blast beating up these three bastards. Next time I see them, I'll beat them up again! So what?"

"If you are a coward and are afraid of Li Shanchang and Hu Weiyong, then you can use my head to give them an explanation! Anyway, I, Zhu Ju, was born by you, so I will give this life back to you!"

Zhu Ju also got angry after being yelled at by Old Zhu.

He has a stubborn nature. If you had explained it to me, I might have realized my mistake.

But if you use force directly!
I'm sorry, I'm not wrong! Even if my whole body is burned to ashes, this hard mouth will still remain, shouting "I'm not wrong!"

"you you……"

Zhu Yuanzhang was so angry that he rolled his eyes. He covered his chest and gasped heavily. The long sword in his hand fell to the ground with a bang!
"Chongpachi!"

Ma Xiuying still cared about her husband. Seeing that Zhu Yuanzhang was having trouble breathing, she hurried forward to pat his back and said repeatedly,
"Oh, I don't know what you are talking about!"

"Even if it's a big deal, you don't have to get so angry! There is nothing in this world that can't be overcome. Don't get yourself hurt by getting angry. It's not worth it!"

With her constant calming, Zhu Yuanzhang finally calmed down his anger.

"Girl, look at yourself, what the hell did you give birth to?"

Zhu Yuanzhang gritted his teeth and said,

"With this kid around, we'll live at least ten years less!"

"Ugh—cough, cough, cough!"

His breath was choked again and Lao Zhu started coughing violently.

"It's okay. I've installed a longevity tablet for you. Without saying too much, you can still live a dozen more years. This way you've gained a few years."

Zhu Ju snorted coldly.

Ma Xiuying: “!!!”

"Zhuju!"

She scolded Zhu Ju,
"Your father is already like this, and you are still angry with him? You really want to be a rebellious son!"

"Why don't you apologize to your father now? How can you be a son like this? You are choking your own father like this!"

Although I don’t know the whole story, I can tell from the conversation between the two that Zhu Ju was definitely in trouble, and it was a big trouble!

A person who has caused trouble dares to be so tough, which makes her a little unable to bear it!

“Someone, someone, come!!”

Zhu Yuanzhang shouted angrily,
"Throw this rebellious son into the prison. Throw him into the prison!!!"

When Ma Xiuying heard the word "Heavenly Prison", her face suddenly changed.

"Zhongba, it's not that serious!"

she said,

"Xiaojuzi is still weak now. If he were in prison..."

"Shut up!" Zhu Yuanzhang rarely showed his toughness in front of Ma Xiuying. He scolded her and said firmly, "This rebellious son must go to jail! If we don't punish him, he will be ruined!"

Dengdeng!

Two guards rushed in and held Zhu Ju.

"Just squat, I'm afraid of you!"

Zhu Ju rubbed his nose and yelled,
"If you have the guts, lock me up in the prison for life!"

"Get out of here, both of you! I can leave on my own!"

After saying that, he walked out the door without looking back! The two guards looked at each other and could only quickly follow.

Today was really an eye-opener for them.

In the Ming Dynasty, there is probably only one man as courageous as His Royal Highness Prince Wu!
"Listen, listen!" Zhu Yuanzhang sat down on the bed, pointed at the door and yelled.
"The word lawless is not enough to describe him!"

"It's better to be stupid! Being stupid will save you trouble! The way you are now, every day you are either causing trouble or on your way to causing trouble!"

"He's only been released for one day, and he's already made such a big mess. He even talked back after being scolded, and he doesn't even have the slightest attitude of admitting his fault! He's like this, what else can he be but a rebellious son?!"

"I shouldn't have brought him back from Sanqing Mountain! I'm so pissed off!"

Da da da!
On the imperial road, the jade pendant on Zhu Ju's chest was still vibrating.

He took out the jade pendant, and its color had gradually changed from yellow to green.

"The old man is really furious today. He can still receive it from such a long distance."

Zhu Ju muttered,

"But I really didn't do anything..."

"am I wrong?"

"No, I am not wrong, it is them and this world that are wrong!"

In an instant, Zhu Ju regained his confidence.

……

In Kunning Palace, with Ma Xiuying's comfort, Zhu Yuanzhang's emotions finally calmed down a little and he was no longer so irritable.

He also gradually explained to Ma Xiuying the whole story.

After hearing these words, Ma Xiuying opened her mouth wide in shock.

"This kid...how could he be so brave?"

She couldn't help but say,
"He's simply a demon king!"

"If he just visited a brothel, I could tolerate it, but how could he hurt someone and be so cruel?"

“Is this really my little orange?”

Thinking of Zhu Ju's harmless face, Ma Xiuying felt a little dazed.

But when he thought about the scene when he beat Zhu Chong violently, everything... seemed to make sense again.

Zhu Ju didn't change his temper, he just restrained himself...

Anyone who really thinks he is easy to bully and dares to provoke him will suffer the same miserable fate as Zhu Chong did!

Li Qi and the other two are the proof!
"Lu Xian used Lawrence Lu's power to mobilize troops privately. He deserves to be killed! Both father and son deserve to die!"

Zhu Yuanzhang took several sips of tea before speaking in a low voice,
"But this rebellious son, how could he destroy Li Qi's life!"

"Li Shanchang only has this one son, and he treats him like the apple of his eye! Now he has been crippled by Zhu Ju, how can we explain this to him? After all, Li Shanchang is our great contributor!"

"It's reasonable for this kid to go to jail!"

Having said that, even if Ma Xiuying doted on her son, she could only nod.

"Hey!"

"If I had known that he would cause such a big mess if he went out, I would never have let him go out no matter what!"

"Every failure makes me wiser. From now on, I will never let him go again!"

"Let him stay in jail for a few days and reflect on his behavior. If he doesn't change his temper, there will definitely be trouble if he goes to the vassal state in the future."

Ma Xiuying held her forehead with her hand, looking regretful.

A moment of weakness can lead to disaster!

"That's what I thought, too."

Zhu Yuanzhang snorted coldly and said,
"But it's not all bad after he made such a fuss."

"At least now we know that someone actually dared to mobilize private soldiers right under our noses! Mobilizing the police is intolerable, let alone the Yingtian Guards!"

"Lu Zhongheng! We see that he is resting on his laurels and living a very comfortable life!"

"I was just worried that I didn't have the tools to shock the enemy, but I didn't expect that this troublemaker would end up in my hands."

At this moment, Old Zhu thought of the idea of ​​letting Zhu Ju serve as the prime minister of the Secretariat. However, this idea was extinguished in just a moment.

Although this rebellious son is quite domineering and can suppress everyone, he is also a complete mad dog! When he gets crazy, no one can stop him, and even he himself might get bitten a few times.

The disadvantages far outweigh the advantages!
"So, Xiaojuzi has made some contributions."

Ma Xiuying touched her chin and said,
"I helped you find the loopholes in the army and provided you with a way to shock the enemy."

"In this case……"

As soon as she saw the opportunity, she wanted to exonerate Zhu Ju.

However, Zhu Yuanzhang just stared.

"Don't try that!"

"This kid deserves to be in prison. I'm not being angry today. You spoiled him in the past, but I was just making a lot of noise but doing little. I spoiled him too much! This time, I really want him to learn a lesson and suffer a little!"

Ma Xiuying pouted when she heard that.

"Okay, I understand. Then you can go back."

She stood up and started to chase people away.

"Hey, girl, what do you mean?"

Zhu Yuanzhang was about to take off his shoes when he saw Ma Xiuying ordering him to leave. He was immediately upset and shouted,

"It's almost past midnight, where do you want us to go?"

Ma Xiuying rolled her eyes.

"That has nothing to do with me. You can go wherever you want. The concubines are eagerly waiting for you. Even if you go at an early hour, they will all get up from their beds and serve you with surprise. If you don't want to go, you can just go back to the palace."

She folded her arms, raised her head and said,
"Anyway, my own son is in jail, and I feel bad. I'm not in the mood to serve you."

"If you don't mind my coldness towards you, then you can stay and fetch some water to wash yourself."

Zhu Yuanzhang: "..."

This is just a way to show his displeasure to him!

"They say Zhu Ju's temper is like ours. I think it's more like you, with such a stubborn temper!"

Old Zhu muttered, but he did not slow down in taking off his shoes. Instead, he quickened his pace. After taking off his shoes, he suddenly hugged Ma Xiuying!
"You are tough, and I am stubborn too. I must spend the night at your place today!"

"Not only do I want to spend the night with you, I also want to have another child with you! I just don't believe that I can't give birth to a smart and well-behaved son!"

Ma Xiuying: “???”

……

At midnight, the palace became quiet, but outside the palace there was a lot of noise!
All the military powers of the generals in Yingtian were removed, and martial law was ordered! Several defense zones were undergoing large-scale rotations!
The lights in the Five Military Commandery were on, and everyone was on edge, working all night long to carry out the emperor's sudden order.

All the soldiers of Yingtian Guard and patrol officers in the brothel were put in shackles, especially Captain Zheng Wu, who was put in heavy shackles!

From a high-ranking Qianhu to a death row prisoner with nine clans executed, only half a day had passed...

At this time, Li Mansion.

"Master, I really feel...hiccup!"

"Your Majesty is too mean and ungrateful. Based on our merits and the foundation we have built for Zhu Yuanzhang, you should have been the left prime minister and duke long ago. You should be second only to the emperor and above everyone else! But what about now? Hiccup!"

"I still have to... still have to endure the wrath of that jerk Yang Xian. Just thinking about it makes me angry!"

Hu Weiyong's face was flushed at this moment, and he kept burping, venting his emotions.

He was the most motivated and ambitious person. In his eyes, many high-ranking officials in the court were just good-for-nothings! He looked down on them!

And now that Yang Xian has come to power, his domineering attitude has made him even more furious and filled with resentment!

"Weiyong, you are drunk!"

Li Shanchang put down his wine glass, handed over a cup of sobering tea, and said,

"Come, have a cup of tea to sober you up."

"If that's the case, it's fine if you tell me, but if you tell others and someone with ulterior motives hears it, you won't lose ten heads!"

"I heard that His Majesty has secretly expanded the team of inspectors and added the Imperial Guards... Inspectors, do you know what they do?"

"Maybe you and I are drinking right now, right under their surveillance!"

Hu Weiyong: “?!”

With just one sentence, he sobered up a little and looked alert.

"real or fake?"

"Master... it's not that bad, is it?!"

Li Shanchang couldn't help but laugh when he saw this.

"Hahaha, I was just kidding. Your Majesty has just started. It's not that scary."

He took a sip of tea and said seriously,

"However, if things continue to develop like this, maybe one day what I said will become a reality."

"So... you should be more careful with your words and actions."

Hu Weiyong nodded repeatedly and bowed to Li Shanchang.

It is better to be safe than sorry; this is what Li Shanchang always told him, but it is also something he could never learn.

"Master, it's ugly hour."

The butler came up and reminded.

Li Shanchang glanced at the sky and said in surprise:
"It's already Chou Hour so soon? Weiyong, I was so excited chatting with you today that I even forgot the time."

"Li Wu, is Qi'er back?"
