When Zhu Houcong saw Zhu Yuanzhang, he was completely stunned. He knelt on the ground, trembling all over, and dared not utter a word.
"Oh, isn't this Emperor Daojun?" Zhu Yuanzhang said jokingly, but his cold tone told Zhu Houcong that he was not joking.
Zhu Houcong shuddered all over and said in a trembling voice: "Grandpa Taizu, I, the unfilial descendant Zhu Houcong, acknowledge my guilt!"
"Admit your guilt?" Zhu Yuanzhang sneered, "What's the point of admitting your guilt now?"
As Zhu Yuanzhang finished speaking, the whip in his hand cut through the air and fell down.
'Pa' "Ah! Grandpa Taizu, spare my life!"
"Is the elixir delicious?"
"Is the palace comfortable?"
"Is it fun to guess riddles?"
"Is Qingci nice to listen to?"
"Is the grand ceremony lively?"
"Is calling you Chengzu Ye still easy?"
After Zhu Yuanzhang whipped Zhu Houcong, his body was covered with bloody whip marks and he rolled on the ground wailing in pain.
In the end, Zhu Yuanzhang whipped Zhu Houcong more than ten times in a row, leaving no spot on his body unharmed. But the amazing thing was that Zhu Houcong did not faint even then, worthy of being a cultivator.
Zhu Houcong was carried away by Zhu Zaihou and Zhu Yijun. Zhu Changluo and Zhu Youxiao also hurried to collect herbs to treat Zhu Houcong's injuries.
Next were Zhu Zaihou and Zhu Yijun. Zhu Zaihou was not so bad. Like Zhu Gaochi, he didn't sit on the throne for long. After he went in, he was whipped and came out.
Then came Zhu Yijun. Zhu Yijun felt sad and looked back at his grandfather Zhu Houcong. He already understood that he might not be much better than this emperor grandfather.
When Zhu Yijun knelt in front of Zhu Yuanzhang after paying his respects, the whip in Zhu Yuanzhang's hand was already stained with blood, and the blood was so red that it was dazzling in Zhu Yijun's eyes.
Facing Zhu Yijun, Zhu Yuanzhang only asked one question: "Why haven't you attended court for more than 20 years?"
Zhu Yijun's breath hitched, and his heart began to beat rapidly. But before he could think of how to explain, he heard Zhu Yuanzhang say, "Turn around and lie down."
"..." Zhu Yijun's face turned pale, and he pleaded quickly: "Grandpa Taizu..."
Zhu Yuanzhang stood up and kicked him to the ground, then raised his whip and beat him severely, making Zhu Yijun scream in pain.
Facts proved that Zhu Yijun was better than his grandfather Zhu Houcong. Zhu Yuanzhang only whipped him seven times and told him to get out.
Next came Zhu Changluo. After Zhu Changluo saluted, Zhu Yuanzhang asked directly: "Is the red pill delicious?"
Zhu Changluo shrank his head at this moment, and upon hearing this, he hurriedly shook his head and said, "Replying to Grandpa Taizu, it's not delicious."
"Turn around." Zhu Yuanzhang said.
Zhu Changluo turned around blankly, not daring to show any disrespect.
Next, there were five more real whippings, and then Zhu Changluo walked out with his teeth bared and five bloody whip marks on his back.
After Zhu Changluo came Zhu Youxiao. Zhu Youxiao was even more cowardly than his father Zhu Changluo, and he crawled into the house step by step.
When he saw Zhu Yuanzhang with a cold face in the room, his whole body froze with fear.
After a long while, Zhu Youxiao finally took a step and moved step by step to Zhu Yuanzhang, then knelt on the ground and kowtowed.
'Bang' Suddenly, Zhu Youxiao felt a softening under his brow. He was slightly startled and looked up, only to see that Zhu Yuanzhang had put his foot under his head.
Zhu Youxue happened to look at Zhu Yuanzhang about this matter, and the majestic and cold gaze made him shiver.
At this time, Zhu Yuanzhang only heard him ask, "Is the wet nurse good?"
"..." When Zhu Youxiao heard this, his heart turned cold and a chill rose from his back.
"Is the eunuch listening obedient?"
“Is the carpenter happy with his work?”
“…”
Zhu Youxiao could not answer any of these questions. In the end, Zhu Yuanzhang kicked him to the ground and then whipped him ten times. He screamed in agony and almost passed out.
But in the end, Zhu Youxiao walked out by himself, but when he just walked out of the door of the wooden house, he was stunned.
Because, on the flat ground ahead, there was a man with disheveled hair, wearing a yellow robe and his hair covering his face, standing there quietly.
This man was filled with frustration and depression, the kind of temperament that could make you depressed just by looking at him.
If I had to use one word to describe it, it would be 'hell'.
The aura and temperament of this man are undoubtedly very underworld. Compared with him, even the King of Hell is considered a mortal.
"Youjian?" Zhu Youxiao seemed to have forgotten the pain in his body at this moment. He rushed forward quickly and came in front of the man.
This man was Emperor Chongzhen Zhu Youjian. He did not even raise his head, but knelt on the ground and kowtowed more than a dozen times to the ancestors, fathers and brothers present, until his forehead was broken.
Just as Zhu Youjian continued to kowtow, he was held up by a hand. Everyone turned around and saw that it was Zhu Di.
Zhu Di stopped Zhu Youjian from kowtowing and said to him, "Emperor Taizu is in the room, go see him."
Zhu Youjian didn't say anything, just nodded silently, then stood up and slowly walked into the wooden house.
The atmosphere at the scene suddenly became extremely solemn. No one scolded Zhu Youjian, and no one blamed him.
However, those blaming eyes were all focused on Zhu Qizhen, Zhu Houzhao, Zhu Houcong, Zhu Yijun, Zhu Changluo, Zhu Youxiao and others.
...
Zhu Youjian entered the room and silently came before Zhu Yuanzhang. Without saying a word, he kowtowed deeply, then prostrated himself on the ground and said, "I, the unworthy descendant, Zhu Youjian, the king of a fallen nation, pay my respects to the Emperor Taizu."
