Chapter 475: Heavy Punishment
Lu Xing woke up slowly, opened his eyes, and saw the magnificence in front of him, and the fragrance at the end of his nose was bursting, as if the house was still incense.
He thought about it, and the old marquis was furious, arrested himself and punished him, and then threw himself into the firewood room......
By the way, I should have been in a simple firewood house, how could I have slept in such a good place? Could it be that I was still asleep and had such a beautiful dream?
He propped himself up and rubbed his eyes, intending to see better. A very familiar voice came from overhead: "Brother Xing, you're awake, you're finally awake! ”
It was Qin Lu's voice.
"Junior Brother Qin. Lu Xing raised his head, and sure enough, he saw Qin Lu standing beside his bed. Their brothers have been swords and swords for many years, born and died, and have a deep friendship, just like today's Qin Lu, which is also different from the past, has become a lot more emotional, full of worry, seeing him wake up, that surprise can't be hidden.
"You, why are you here?" Lu Xing only felt that his mouth was dry, and the voice he spit out was very jerky.
Qin Lu hurriedly beckoned Yahuan to come over with a cup of hot tea and wanted to feed Lu Xing. Lu Xing was a little embarrassed, and hurriedly waved his hand and said, "No, I just took a beating, and I'm not a waste, I'll come by myself." ”
Qin Lu looked at him and knew that he was stubborn, so he had to hand him the hot tea.
Lu Xing barely supported his body, and the sharp pain of the fire in his back made him grit his teeth and frown.
Qin Lu hurriedly stepped forward to help, trying to avoid his wounds and help him up.
Lu Xing took a sip of water and felt much better, so he asked, "Junior Brother Qin, what kind of place is this, why am I here?"
"Lu Xing, do you know what is wrong?" There was a sound of footsteps, and a person walked in with a bright yellow body, and the pattern on his body was very dazzling.
Lu Xing was taken aback: "Prince!"
He finally understood why this place was splendid, showing that it was different from other mansions in the capital, and it turned out that he was now in the prince's mansion.
In this way, it should be the crown prince who learned that he had been heavily blamed and came to rescue him from the Wumuhou mansion.
He gritted his teeth and forced himself to get up, but Qin Lu hurriedly went to stop him: "Brother Xing, you have an injury on your body, don't tear the wound." ”
Lu Xing didn't care, insisted on coming down. Qin Lu had no choice but to stabilize him and help him down. After getting out of bed, Lu Xing pushed Qin Lu away and walked in front of the prince by himself. Even in a few short steps, due to his injuries and high fever, he walked extremely hard in these few steps, and when he walked in front of the prince, he was already in a cold sweat.
He knelt down on his knees and said in a low voice, "My subordinates see the prince." ”
"Lu Xing, do you know what is wrong?" the prince covered his face with a cold box, and there was a coldness in his tone.
Lu Xing lowered his head, didn't dare to look at the prince, and said in a low voice: "The subordinates are guilty." ”
"Then tell me, what's wrong?" the prince asked again.
Lu Xing hung his head and was silent. Although he knew his mistake in his mouth, there was no remorse on his face. He thought about the consequences of the incident and felt that it was not his fault, but since the prince said that he was wrong, he was wrong.
How could the prince not see his thoughts, anger appeared on his face, and he commanded Qin Lu: "Go, get a whip." ’
"Huh?!" Qin Lu was stunned.
Qin Lu was completely confused.
If the crown prince didn't care about Lu Xing at all, why would he come to the Wumu Marquis Mansion in person to rescue Lu Xing from the old marquis's hands. If this is rescued, he should be allowed to recover well and recover as soon as possible. Why did Lu Xing wake up at this moment, and the prince wanted to punish him angrily?
"The prince is angry, General Lu is injured, and the high fever has not gone away for several days, so he can't fight. ”
Lu Xing looked at the prince with wide eyes, and he was also very stunned.
They have been by the prince's side since they were children, and they are very familiar with the prince's temperament. The prince is ruthless and cold-blooded to his enemies, but for his own brothers, especially those who were born and came with him, he is a little closer than his own brothers. Otherwise, the crown prince would not be so worried about himself, and personally went to the Wumuhou Mansion to pick himself up. However, how can this blink of an eye, say that you have turned your face?
Seeing that Qin Lu was struggling and refusing to move, the prince's face was a little colder: "Why don't you take the whip quickly." ’
Qin Lu looked at the prince's face and understood that the prince was really angry. He couldn't help but listen to the prince's order, so he had to go out slowly to get the whip.
Lu Xing gritted his teeth and said in a low voice: "Prince, Lu Xing doesn't know what a serious crime he has committed, so he has to work for the prince himself, please make it clear." “
The prince said coldly: "Not convinced, isn't it? Okay, I'll count your crimes today, and see if you have been wronged by this whip?"
Lu Xing knelt up straight and listened carefully.
The prince paced in front of Lu Xing, stood still, and asked, "Tell me, what is filial piety?"
Qin Lu was stunned for a moment, what is the problem with the prince, why did he suddenly ask this?
Lu Xing was also a little puzzled, but he still replied honestly: "Serving your parents is filial piety." ”
"What else?" the prince asked again.
Lu Xing was a little speechless. According to his understanding, staying by his parents' side, serving his parents, serving tea and water, and setting his mind in the morning and dusk is even filial piety.
The prince looked at him coldly: "It seems that there is nothing going on these days, but you don't move around the city much." Haven't you heard how the folk saying goes: Poor parents are filial piety when they have money, sick parents are filial piety, lonely parents are filial piety, parents who are short-tempered understand are filial piety, parents who are diligent and thrifty are filial piety, parents who are sick take care of them more than once, and nagging parents are filial piety when they listen?"
The prince's words were quite meaningful, and Lu Xing's face was red, his head was lowered, and he didn't dare to raise his eyes to look at the prince.
Qin Lu understood, it turned out that the prince was making a big fuss about the word "filial piety" and teaching Lu Xing a lesson.
Thinking about what happened to Wumuhou Mansion, thinking about it, it seems that it is really inseparable from the word "filial piety".
"Do you understand?" the prince asked again.
Lu Xing bowed, walked away, kowtowed, and said, "The prince has taught him a lesson, and Lu Xing knows that he is wrong." ”
"Tell me more. The prince said again.
Lu Xing raised his head, with a hint of remorse in his eyes: " What the prince said means that according to the different circumstances of the parents, the way of filial piety is also different: it is filial piety to do your best to give your parents the money they need; it is filial piety to take care of the elderly and frail parents and take care of their diet and daily life; it is filial piety to accompany the lonely parents so that the parents are not lonely; it is filial piety to understand the irritability of the parents and understand the hard work of the parents; it is filial piety to listen patiently to the nagging of the parents and to accompany the parents to nag more when there is nothing to do; the parents love face and like to show off, so give the parents the opportunity to show off in front of others, that is also filial piety. Although the ways of filial piety are very different, the essence of filial piety is the same: it is to be considerate of parents, understand their expectations, and let parents get their wishes and feel at ease. ”
"Then have you given your parents their wish and felt at ease?" the prince asked again.
Qin Lu looked at the prince, he thought, is the prince going to get to the bottom of the problem and completely pull out the weeds that have grown in Lu Xing's heart?
Lu Xing gritted his teeth, kowtowed heavily, and said, "Lu Xing is not filial, so his parents are so tired. ”
The prince suddenly pointed at Lu Xing and said, "You are indeed unfilial. Mother's nagging, in the final analysis, is also for your own good, not only do you not explain, but you also act so willfully, and you don't even want to leave one more opportunity to explain to your mother. That's fine, your mother is suffering from an old disease, not only do you not know it, but you also push your biological mother so hard that she falls to the ground and the old injury recurs. If you don't know that, that's fine. However, you ignore your mother and want to save you, so that in the process of arguing with your father, your body is weightless and breaks your lumbar vertebrae, don't you even know this?"
Lu Xing raised his head in shock.
To tell the truth, although he learned from the mouth of his subordinates, his mother's health was not good during this time, and the old disease recurred. It was an old problem left over from when she was carrying a sword for her father, and it hadn't had a seizure for many years. But he is obsessed with the harm his mother has done to the people he loves, and he refuses to forgive his mother. Even if his mother asked him in a low voice, he was unmoved.
Then there were some physical conflicts between mother and son, and he was angry at that time, and he just pushed it, and he didn't feel how much strength he had, why did he let his mother hurt his waist again?
What made him feel even more incredible was that his mother's lumbar vertebrae were actually broken, and they were actually broken?
How is this possible?
He asked anxiously: "Prince, what you said is the truth? My mother, the lumbar vertebra is really broken, how is this possible?"
"How is it impossible?" the prince said angrily, "Could it be that I will still lie to you about such a major matter?" This morning, the old marquis also personally went to the Hanging Temple and invited the famous doctor Xuanhe. ”
Even the famous Xuanhe is here, it seems that what the prince said is the truth. Lu Xing only felt a sour feeling in his heart, and his mother's kindness to him in the past came to mind one by one.
In fact, he also knew that in the entire Wumuhou Mansion, his mother loved him the most. Moreover, the mother's love was not hidden at all.
When the weather is hot, my mother is often worried that her duty will be damaged by the sun, and even when she is sick, she always has to support her sick body and go to the kitchen to make mung bean and kelp soup for herself. Because, his mouth is too tricky, except for what his mother makes, he doesn't eat anything else that his mother-in-law makes.
When the weather is cold and the snow is falling, my mother is always worried that she is frozen, and the cotton clothes to protect against the cold are sewn by my mother, and they are made of the best cotton that has been inspected by my mother......
Lu Xing burst into tears.
He got up suddenly, took the whip from Qin Lu's hand, knelt in front of the prince again, raised the whip above his head, and said, "Lu Xing knows that he has made an irreparable mistake, so please ask the prince to punish his subordinates heavily." ”
