Chapter 18 must have been done by Ma Sanbao
The cold winter wind blew on Hu Pengju, who was not clothed, he opened his eyes, and felt that his head was a mess, he tried to remember what happened the night before, but he didn't remember anything, the son of the prime minister did not react to his situation, he was going to reach out and rub his sleepy eyes, but found that no matter how hard he tried, his hands could not move.
Looking downward, Hu Pengju was a little sober, he was tied up by five flowers and thrown in the middle of the flower boat, and there were one Oiran after another lying beside him, and only he was awake on the current flower boat.
Gradually, he felt the pain all over his body, the effect of the anesthetic faded, Hu Pengju suddenly felt uncomfortable, he felt that the bridge of his nose was wet, stretched out his tongue and licked, and felt a sticky and smelly liquid flowing down the bridge of his nose on the deck of the flower boat, and the bright red color made Hu Pengju understand that the liquid that tasted bad was his own blood.
"Who's going to help Young Master Ben untie it!" He shouted, but there was no reaction, the surrounding Oiran was still asleep one by one, his voice did not come from the flower boat, the young master was very embarrassed, the cold wind invaded his body, and the coldness made him try to curl up in the bound body, but he couldn't do anything.
I don't know how long it took, the Oiran slowly opened their eyes, when they saw Hu Pengju who was beaten to a blue nose and swollen face and tied up with five flowers, the Oiran had a surprise on their pretty faces, and they didn't know very well what happened last night, they just remembered that after drinking some wine, there was no picture afterward.
"Don't be stunned, untie it for me, I'm still alive, hurry up, damn it, which little rabbit cub cleaned up the master into this virtue! Be sure to catch him! Hu Pengju gritted his teeth, he didn't understand who it was, he didn't think of Zhu Di for the first time, after all, Zhu Di also sent him the wine of Drunken Immortal Building.
Untying the rope, Hu Pengju shrunk himself into a ball, the biting cold of winter made him shiver, the oirans hurriedly found clothes and quilts for him to drape, and even boiled a bowl of hot wine for Hu Pengju to warm up.
Since Hu Pengju untied the rope, Hu Pengju was a little angry, he couldn't speak well, and now he couldn't imagine who cleaned himself up like this, "Could it be my habits?" No, these Oirans don't seem to have anything to do! ”
"Young Master Hu, if there are no other requirements, let's go back first, and you can rest in the boat now." The Oiran looked at Hu Pengju a little nervously, for fear that the son of the prime minister would implicate them, their life experience was already miserable, and they came to Yihong Mansion just to eat a meal, but they didn't want to lose their jobs because they offended the prime minister's son.
"Let's go! Let me go! Leave me alone! Hu Pengju knocked over all the flowers and fruits on the table, he was extremely depressed, at the moment, he couldn't think about who made him stumble, he wanted to check the wine that Zhu Di gave him, however, the wine bottle that Zhu Di gave him was empty.
"Zhu Di, it must be Zhu Di! I'm so angry, I must go and beg my father! I must make Zhu Di regret it, and I must Ling Chi Marven and that little bastard! Hu Peng was angry, although he had no evidence, his intuition told him that it must be Zhu Di and Ma Sanbao who made him suffer, and in Yihong Mansion, Zhu Di wanted to clean him up the most.
After packing up his clothes, Hu Pengju got into the servant's carriage, and now, he wished that he could have a pair of wings like a bird, so that he could appear in front of his father as soon as possible to bring Marven and to justice, he was so aggrieved that the son of the dignified prime minister was beaten so inexplicably.
In the Prime Minister's Mansion, Hu Weiyong, who was dressed in the official uniform of the Prime Minister of the Ming Dynasty, was drinking tea and chatting with a powerful and high-ranking official, as Zhu Yuanzhang's confidant general, Hu Weiyong's connections in the entire Ming Dynasty were also very extensive, "Brother Lan, this matter, I don't think I can help you, although you and I are brothers, but Your Majesty seems to be a little wary of me, if I help you, it will affect Brother Lan." ”
The magnate who talked to Hu Weiyong was the Ming Dynasty general Lan Yu, who was also one of Zhu Yuanzhang's founding heroes and a good friend of Hu Weiyong.
Hu Weiyong's face was embarrassed, it was not that he didn't want to help Lan Yu, as the prime minister, that little thing was one of the powers he could exercise, but just recently, Zhu Yuanzhang continued to weaken his power, which made Hu Weiyong a headache.
"Father, father, you must help me!" Hu Peng lifted off the carriage and trotted all the way in the Prime Minister's Mansion, and when he crossed the threshold, he didn't pay attention to the fall, and his already swollen face hit the ground heavily.
"Pengju, hurry up." Seeing this, Lan Yu hurriedly lifted Hu Peng up from the ground, "Brother Hu, look at your son, this fall is really hard, and his face is swollen." ”
"Phew, who said I fell here..."Hu Pengju thought that it was the attendant who helped him up, and he was about to have a seizure, but when he looked at it, the person in front of him was Lan Yu, and he immediately learned to behave, "Uncle Lan, father, you must make the decision for me!" I was beaten up in Yihong House last night! ”
"Who would dare to beat you? Don't know your identity? Hu Weiyong saw the tragic situation of his son, and said with some distress, he Hu Weiyong and his shortcomings, he couldn't see his children being beaten to pieces, "Don't worry, boldly tell your father, my father will copy his whole family!" ”
"Father, I suspect that the perpetrator is the fourth prince Zhu Di!" Hu Peng gritted his teeth, he hated Zhu Di so much, if it weren't for the wine from the Drunken Immortal Building sent by Zhu Di, he wouldn't be in this tragic situation.
"Zhu Di? Zhu Di did it, Brother Hu, bear with it for a while, that's the prince, we can't afford to provoke it. Lan Yu said to Hu Weiyong, Hu Weiyong nodded, he also understood that no matter how powerful he was, he couldn't fight with the royal family, it was like hitting a stone with an egg, and even his official position would be deprived by Emperor Zhu Yuanzhang.
"Father, you must make the decision for the child, don't you know Zhu Di's face, on the surface, he befriended me, gave me wine, and secretly beat me into this look, I am now, I have no face to see people!" Hu Peng choked up, "Father, I also thought of one person, that is the eight-year-old child next to Zhu Di, Ma Wenhe." ”
"What are you talking about, is it Ma Wenhe recommended by Zhu Di in front of His Majesty? Did he do it? Is there any evidence? Zhu Di: We can't move, a little child, can't we still move? Hu Weiyong asked suspiciously, he really wanted to be angry for his son, but if his son tricked him, his prime minister's hat would be taken off.
"Although I don't have full evidence, I can be sure that he must have teamed up with Zhu Di, father, you must catch him, I want to delay him!" Hu Pengju opened his mouth angrily, his eyes seemed to be able to burst into flames, before at Zhu Biao's banquet, Ma Sanbao first despised his identity as the son of the prime minister, and because Zhu Yuanzhang named him and asked him to compose poems to shine at the banquet, Hu Pengju even felt jealous of Ma Sanbao in his heart, in his opinion, Ma Sanbao was just a country man, why was he favored by His Majesty.
"I'll order someone to go to Zhu Di's mansion to ask for someone! I'm going to get your innocence! Hu Weiyong spoke, he put down the teacup in his hand and hammered it heavily on the table, his voice was extremely stern.
"Brother Hu, think twice before you act! That is Zhu Di's mansion, and the person who goes to ask for the prince is a bit too much. Lan Yu said nervously to Hu Weiyong, Hu Weiyong couldn't help him before, because he didn't want to provoke the royal family, but for the sake of his son, he didn't hesitate to ask the prince for someone.
"Brother Lan, I have my own conclusion on this matter, if you are worried about being implicated by me, leave quickly now, and you will be fine." Hu Weiyong said to Lan Yu, he was really angry, "The nine-grade sesame officials dare to kick their noses in front of me Hu Weiyong, don't say that he Ma Wenhe is a supervising imperial history, even if he is the secretary of the Ministry of Rites, I have to reason with him, and if my son is moved, is there any royal law?" Arrest! ”
................................
Zhu Di Mansion.
"Brother Xian, what do you think Hu Pengju's reaction will be when he wakes up in the morning?" Zhu Di said to Ma Sanbao with some excitement, he beat Hu Pengju hard last night, which alleviated the resentment in Zhu Di's heart, for so many years, this son of the prime minister has been against himself everywhere, and he finally has a chance to vent, and it is a happy one in his heart.
"It must be angry, I think, he must be cold, hehe, why don't we take off all his clothes and let him be naked in the flower boat, that is more interesting, he must be embarrassed to wake up in the morning." Ma Sanbao said to Zhu Di with a smile, he took the wine glass handed by Zhu Di and drank all the wine in the cup.
"I'm not interested in taking off a man's clothes, so I left him a pair of pants, I didn't expect it, you're a big ghost, but you still have this kind of fun? I like to pick up men's clothes. Zhu Di couldn't help but ridicule Ma Sanbao.
"Don't, I'm not interested in men, you say, will Hu Weiyong help his son get angry? His son has just been beaten like this, and the prime minister must be angry, and he may not be going to the house to ask for someone. Ma Sanbao spoke, and before the words fell, the eunuch in Zhu Di's mansion hurriedly ran in front of Zhu Di and Ma Sanbao.
"Fourth Highness, Young Master Ma, Prime Minister Hu Weiyong came to the mansion in person, he said that he was here to ask for someone, and asked Young Master Ma to personally go over and confront him face to face, and he also brought a lot of officers and soldiers." The eunuch anxiously said to Ma Sanbao and Zhu Di, "Your Highness, young master, what have you done to the prime minister?" is so tired that the prime minister is so excited. ”
"I really mean Cao Cao, Cao Cao is here! Your Highness, could you please accompany me in confronting the Prime Minister? I'm afraid that I'm alone, I can't suppress the prime minister's official micro-level, and when the time comes, the world will think that the four highnesses are useless, and they can't even keep their own subordinates. Ma Sanbao raised his eyebrows and said to Zhu Di.
