Chapter 1208: The Old Ten Return to Beijing
On the twenty-third day of August, the army that escorted the emperor's eldest grandson and the king of Lu returned to Beijing and drove straight to the Forbidden City.
"Daddy!" Zhu Xiongying saw that the prince came to greet him in person, and happily jumped off the horse and threw himself into the prince's arms.
"Tap and tap ......" The prince's face was embarrassed, not because he was worried that his son would fall, but because he was afraid that his old waist, which was seriously strained, would not be able to withstand it.
And he didn't come to greet his son, he touched Xiongying's head and asked him to stand aside.
Looking at King Lu and his wife who got off the carriage, shivering in the cold wind like a pair of frightened quails, he sighed and said, "Old ten, brother and sister."
"Big brother!" The two of them knelt down in front of the boss as if they heard the fairy sound, grabbed the life-saving straw, and cried, "Big brother help us, we really know it's wrong......
"Alas, why did you know that today was the beginning?" The prince's eyes were red, and he pounded Lao Shi's shoulders heavily, hating iron and steel: "You said that you, when you were in front of me, you were knowledgeable and respectful, how did you become a different person as soon as you left my eyes, and you forgot all the courtesy, righteousness and shame?!"
Lao Shi endured the pain in his shoulder, and didn't dare to move, but cried: "It's because I'm too naïve and bewitched by others to make mistakes. Big brother, you have to give me another chance, I promise to change my mind and be a new person."
Princess Lu Tang also cried bitterly from the side, she already knew that her father-in-law had mentioned twice in the holy decree that she would put herself to death. The whole person was almost stupefied.
Seeing the sad and miserable appearance of the two, the prince couldn't help but burst into tears.
As soon as the two saw that there was a door, they cried even harder.
Who knew that the prince sighed and said, "The sixth man was under great pressure to arrest you back to the capital. I can't speak for you until my father condemns you, or what will I become?"
"Big brother, the sixth brother is unkind, you are not that kind of person!" Lao Shi was horrified when he heard this.
"You are talking nonsense, my sixth uncle has the most important feelings! How many times have you been given a chance that you don't cherish yourself!" Zhu Xiongying really couldn't listen to it, and pointed at the old ten and scolded: "As far as the evil things you did in Yanzhou, they are simply inferior to beasts! Even if my grandfather and my father spare you, I won't be able to spare you in the future!"
"......," Lao Shiden was stunned. Only then did I remember that I almost castrated the emperor's eldest grandson......
"Xiongying." The prince scolded his son and told him to stop, and then said to Lao Shi in a deep voice: "The only way out for you now is to admit your mistakes with your father and reflect deeply, instead of slandering others!"
"Yes, my brother understands......" Lao Shi nodded with a sad face.

In the Wuying Palace, Zhu Yuanzhang was approving the chapter.
I heard the prince report: "Dad, the old ten or two are here."
He nodded, put down the recital, stood up and walked over to the sword that hung on the pillar, grasped the hilt and drew it sharply.
The crown prince hurriedly stopped him: "Father is angry, but he can't dance with a sword."
"We're going to cut down those evil animals!" Zhu Yuanzhang didn't jump like thunder, but his face was long, and his face was blue and blue, which was a manifestation of his true anger.
"Get out of the way!" Zhu Yuanzhang pointed his sword at the prince.
"Don't be impulsive, father, you can't be punished without teaching!" How dare the prince dodge? At this time, if he doesn't stop it, his father can really take the lives of a dozen or two people with a sword.
"You fart, why don't we teach and punish him, did we send a eunuch to scold him, and still stare at him and let those children go?!" Zhu Yuanzhang roared: "Get out of the way for me, today is the Heavenly King Lao Tzu is here, and I will also slaughter this beast!"
"No, I won't let you! My father will regret it in the future!" How could the prince let his father slash his own son? That is not a tragedy in the world, and it is strange to talk about it through the ages? Naturally, he tried his best to block it.
After all, Zhu Yuanzhang is already a handful of years old, and the prince is desperate to stop him, and he really has no choice. Finally, he threw his sword to the ground in anger and said angrily, "Bring the whip!
」
Then he coldly questioned the prince, "Do you want to stop even the whip?"
The prince shook his head and moved out of the way, "Don't stop, you should hit hard."
"Humph!" Zhu Yuanzhang snorted coldly, walked to the door of the hall with a black face, took the leather whip handed by the eunuch, and first took a whip to try the feel, and saw that it was a genuine cooked whip, so he nodded with satisfaction and walked to the king and wife of Lu who were kneeling outside the hall.
"Father...... Emperor" Lao Shi was just about to salute in fear, but Zhu Yuanzhang's whip had already been drawn up on his head and face.
"Don't call me Father, we don't have a son like you!" Zhu Yuanzhang gritted his teeth and said, rounded the whip and whipped King Lu violently.
He screamed in pain, hugged his head and shrunk into a ball, and every time he was hit, it was like an electric shock, and his whole body trembled.
Zhu Yuanzhang was extremely ruthless, and every whip made his skin open and fleshy, and the brocade robe on his body had already been smashed, turning into blood-stained butterflies, flying to the ground......
After twenty lashes, King Lu stopped moving, and he stopped calling, only a faint moan......
The crown prince watched from the sidelines with tears in his eyes, but he clenched his fists tightly and held back his mouth to persuade him.
At this time, a grief-stricken scream came from the palace gate.
"Tan'er ......"
Seeing Concubine Guo Ning, the biological mother of the tenth child, she screamed sadly, flew over, and lay on her son, wanting to bear the anger from the emperor for him.
Zhu Yuanzhang hung the whip stiffly, Concubine Guo Ning was not an ordinary concubine. Back then, Zhu Yuanzhang had just defected to Guo Zixing, and when he was still a big soldier, he went out to run errands and passed by his fellow villager Guo Shanfu's house. Guo Shanfu fell in love with him at first sight and decided that he would do something great in the future, so he had to marry his beloved daughter to him.
Zhu Yuanzhang said that he was married, and he didn't care, so he asked his daughter to make Zhu Yuanzhang's side room. Since then, Guo has been following Zhu Yuanzhang to live a turbulent military life. The time by Zhu Yuanzhang's side is second only to Queen Ma......
And her three elder brothers were all brave, and they also joined the Red Turban Army. Later, when Zhu Yuanzhang was squeezed out by Guo Tianxu and left Haozhou to start a business in Dingyuan, among the twenty-four people he brought with him, there were two of her brothers, Guo Xing and Guo Ying.
For decades, the Guo brothers have been loyal, brave and good at fighting, and have made great contributions to the old Zhu family.
Concubine Guo Ning also took Queen Ma as a model, and did her best to help Zhu Yuanzhang, caring and considerate to Zhu Yuanzhang, which can be called a virtuous helper. For more than 30 years, the two have a very deep relationship.
How did Zhu Yuanzhang get this hand?
"Get out of the way." Zhu Yuanzhang panted and pointed at Concubine Guo Ning and said, "Today, we have to kill this rebel!"
"Then the emperor will kill the concubines." Concubine Guo Ning hugged her son tightly and cried: "I just ask you to spare Tan'er's life, the concubine has never begged the emperor in her life, so I beg you this time, okay?!"
