Ming Dynasty: Zhu Biao's younger brother, the most rebellious son in history

Chapter 5 My younger brother has too many troubles!
"..."

Zhu Yuanzhang must have looked extremely unhappy when his teacher reported him to the police.

He did not listen to what Song Lian said about Prince of Yan Zhu Di, Prince of Qin Zhu Chong, and Prince of Jin Zhu Gang, but only remembered the second prince Zhu Kai.

He slammed the table and angrily said, "This rebellious son! Scholar Song, where is this rebellious son now?"

"In Fengxian Palace, the King of Qin and the King of Jin wanted to follow, but they were beaten by the Second Prince."

After Song Lian finished speaking, he bowed and pleaded:

"Your Majesty, I beg you to consider the Crown Prince, the Princes, and the people of the world and let the Second Prince go to his fiefdom. Otherwise, it is easy for children to learn bad things, but it is too difficult for them to change for the better."

Song Lian filed a complaint in a rather elegant manner.

If it were a teacher in later generations, they would definitely say that Zhu Kai was a troublemaker and a bad apple who led all the students astray.

After hearing this, Zhu Yuanzhang laughed and said, "Sir, what you said makes sense, but the Queen favors Zhu Kai and is reluctant to let him go. Scholar Song also knows that the Queen is in charge of the affairs of the harem, right?"

The Queen favors Zhu Kai and is reluctant to let him go. But you, Song Lian, insist that I send him away. Don’t you want my harem to have peace?
Song Lian was helpless too, you two really practiced Tai Chi well.

Zhu Yuanzhang said that the Queen favored Zhu Kai and was reluctant to let him go. The Queen said that the child's fate was decided by you, Zhu Yuanzhang... I, as a minister, who should we listen to?
You just can't bear to let Zhu Kai leave?
Zhu Yuanzhang saw that Song Lian's face was getting darker and darker, so he quickly said:
"Mr. Song, don't worry. I will go to Fengxian Palace right now to teach that rebellious son a lesson. If Mr. Song is worried, you can go with me."

"Your Majesty is so majestic, I am naturally relieved."

Song Lian dared not doubt Zhu Yuanzhang, and immediately said goodbye: "Since your majesty has come forward, I will take my leave. I believe that if your majesty takes action, the school will surely be able to have peace for a while."

"..."

Zhu Yuanzhang's face turned dark.

Song Lian, you mean to imply that I should beat Zhu Kai so that he can't leave the house?
Thinking of his son... Zhu Yuanzhang also had a headache.

Zhu Kai had received countless beatings since he was a child. Ma Xiuying always mentioned this during dinner, saying that the soles of your shoes were the main reason why Zhu Kai grew so strong.

In fact, Zhu Yuanzhang wanted to say that Zhu Kai was so strong, not only because of the soles of his shoes, but also because of the stick and the belt...

It doesn't hurt when you get hit with the soles of your shoes, it breaks when you get hit with a stick, but a belt is better.

But it has to be replaced with a new one after less than a month.

I, Old Zhu, was born in a poor family, and it was really painful for me to replace my belt.

"How about... changing the wooden stick to an iron stick?"

When Zhu Yuanzhang was thinking about what to use to hit Zhu Kai, the eunuch Yuan Qi reported: "Your Majesty, Yingguogong Feng Sheng wants to see you."

Feng Sheng, whose original name was Feng Guosheng, was a talented general under Zhu Yuanzhang who was both civil and military. The title of Duke of Ying was the title of his brother Feng Guoyong, and now it belongs to Feng Sheng.

Like Zhu Yuanzhang, Feng Sheng disagreed with the Northern Expedition. However, his contributions were not as great as those of Xu Da, Li Wenzhong and other generals, and his words were drowned out in the tide of the Northern Expedition.

But the more Feng Sheng thought about it, the more he felt something was wrong. After leaving, he couldn't help but return and ask to see Zhu Yuanzhang.

After meeting Zhu Yuanzhang, Feng Sheng's first words were: "Your Majesty, I think now is not the time to launch a northern expedition. Please think twice."

"I know how to fight."

He asked Yuan Qi to bring the belt over.

He waved it in his hand for a few times, feeling that it was quite handy, and then said to Feng Sheng: "Come with me, your son-in-law deserves a beating again." "..."

After hearing this, Feng Sheng no longer mentioned the war.

How could fighting a war be as important as Zhu Yuanzhang beating his son?

What's more, the one he was beating was the bastard who married his own daughter. Feng Sheng was secretly happy and felt that he had come to the right place, as he could actually see Zhu Yuanzhang teaching his son.

Feng Sheng respectfully said to Zhu Yuanzhang: "Your Majesty, I will whip you!"

"Ah."

Throwing the belt to Feng Sheng, Zhu Yuanzhang walked in front with his hands behind his back, and Feng Sheng followed behind Zhu Yuanzhang towards Fengxian Hall.

Inside the Fengxian Hall, Zhu Kai's legs were pressing down on Zhu Chong, and his upper body was leaning on Zhu Gang who was lying on the ground. Zhu Chong and Zhu Gang's faces turned red with anger, but Zhu Kai was really strong, and the two could not resist at all.

Zhu Di was extremely happy. Normally, these two were the ones who bullied him and his sixth brother Zhu Su. Now that he had the support of his second brother, how could Zhu Di not be arrogant?
He was only heard boasting to Zhu Kai: "Second brother, according to your suggestion, I raised two dogs in my palace, one for the King of Qin and one for the King of Jin, one yellow and one black. After they were fattened up, I slaughtered them and gave them to you to eat!"

After hearing Zhu Di's words, Zhu Chong and Zhu Gang's faces not only turned red, but also darker.

It turns out that it was Zhu Kai's idea to raise two dogs for Zhu Di.

The two brothers immediately struggled violently, trying to unite to resist Zhu Kai, but were suppressed by Zhu Kai again and fell to the ground, unable to move.

"Ah."

Zhu Kai said slowly, "Feed it up, it will taste good when it is fat! Cook it in a big pot!"

As he spoke, Zhu Kai pressed Zhu Gang down with his leg and reached out to mess up Zhu Gang's hair:

"Stop struggling. When I cook the dogs later, I'll give you two a dog leg each!"

"Brother! Don't you care?"

Zhu Chong was so angry that he couldn't even lift his head. He laid face down on the ground and raised his hands high: "Your brother bullied me!"

"???"

Zhu Biao drank a few more cups and felt dizzy. He didn't quite understand what Zhu Chong meant by his complaint.

My brother bullies you, but my brother is not bullied, so why should I care?
But think about it, Zhu Chong is also my brother.

Looking at Zhu Kai sitting beside him, Zhu Biao was too lazy to move. He lay on the ground and hit Zhu Kai with his hand: "Second brother, let them go. You, as an older brother, only know how to bully your younger brother."

When Zhu Di heard Zhu Biao scolding Zhu Kai, he immediately became dissatisfied: "Brother, the third and fourth brothers are bullying me."

"..."

Zhu Biao was overwhelmed. Who should he help among his brothers?

Alas, my younger brother has so many troubles.

However, with Zhu Biao's intervention, Zhu Kai was still polite and let them go. The five brothers drank and ate meat together.
