As soon as Mrs. Pingnan Hou was helped up, Fu Yunlang seemed to have been flipped a switch, and he started crying again: "Mom, it hurts so much."

Mrs. Pingnanhou's lips moved. She looked at her eldest son who was about to speak. She happened to meet his eldest son's eyes full of murderous aura, and what she wanted to say was stuck in her throat.

"If mother wants to intercede for him because he cries and acts coquettishly, then I will punish him ten more lashes." Fu Yunkai's face was as dark as water, and he spoke mercilessly, "If your body can't bear it, you can beat him separately.

After the remaining five lashes, wait for scabs to form on his body, then give him the ten lashes. In short, it will not hurt his life."

"No, no, no..." Upon hearing this, Mrs. Pingnan Hou waved her hands repeatedly, "I won't beg for mercy, just give me the punishment. Just finish these ten lashes, don't add any more."

The eldest son had been whipped by his father many times when he was a child, and Mrs. Pingnanhou knew this kind of whipping very well.

If you are punished with ten lashes in a row, after the fifth lash, the person who is punishing will subconsciously relax some force, lest the person being punished cannot bear it, and deliberately prevent him from fainting, so as to remember the pain next time.

Before you make a mistake, think about the pain and you may be able to stop making mistakes.

But if punished separately, the force of these ten lashes will be solid.

The most important thing is that the wound was whipped again just after it had scabbed over, and the wound was split open. One whipping was equivalent to suffering the pain of two whips, and the suffering would only be greater. If she begged for mercy now, she would be harming her youngest son.

When Fu Yunkai heard his mother's words, he immediately ordered his servants: "Help Madam go back."

Mrs. Ping Nanhou couldn't bear to see her little son suffering here anymore, so she held the maid's mother-in-law's hand and walked away slowly.

Fu Yunkai looked at Fu Yunlang expressionlessly, and when he saw him muttering his mouth shut, he raised the whip and continued to hit him on the back.

"Ah, ah..." Fu Yunlang's screams floated in the sky above Pingnan Hou Mansion, spreading far and wide, and lingering for a long time.

After the flogging was over, Fu Yunkai had someone give Fu Yunlang the golden medicine and help him back to his room. Then he went to the main courtyard and knelt down in front of the door of Mrs. Pingnanhou's house.

After receiving the report from the maid, Mrs. Pingnan Hou hurried out and said angrily: "You, what are you doing?"

Fu Yunkai knelt straight and hugged his mother with a fist: "My son is unfilial, please punish me."

Seeing that her eldest son looked more and more like her husband in appearance and behavior, Mrs. Pingnanhou felt very powerless.

"Get up, mother doesn't mean to blame you." She helped her eldest son up with her own hands, turned around and went back to the house to sit down.

Seeing her eldest son also following in, she said slowly: "I know you and your father have complained that I spoiled Yun Lang. How can the children of our general family not endure hardship? But you also understand me.

"

She started crying, covered her mouth with a handkerchief, pointed outside and said: "In this whole house, except for me, your brother is related to me by blood. You and your father have not been home for many years, and I have no one but you."

Brother, who else could there be? How can I let him endure hardship again? You want to take him to the border, what is the difference between this and gouging out my heart?"

"Why don't you go to the palace and tell the emperor about this?" Fu Yunkai said calmly.

Mrs. Pingnanhou's crying suddenly stopped, and for a long time she said weakly: "I...I didn't mean that."

"What do you mean, mother?" Fu Yunkai's voice was not high, and his tone was neither urgent nor slow, but every word seemed to hit people's hearts. "Now that the emperor has spoken, our family has not given any indication, not to mention Yun."

Give me a few whips, what do you want the emperor to think?"

Mrs. Pingnanhou also knew that her husband and her family's current status was not only due to her husband's military exploits, but also because of the emperor's regard. There were many border officers, but those who could catch the emperor's eye could be promoted by him.

The husband is the first.

"I...I didn't mean to stop you. I'm just a little sad and want you to understand my difficulties."

"Thank you, mother, for your consideration." Fu Yunkai saluted his mother.

After being silent for a while, he added: "Besides, mother, don't worry about my marriage. I want to see it myself. When I choose a bride, mother will ask someone to come to propose marriage."

"How can this work?" Madam Pingnanhou suddenly became anxious, "This can't work!"

"Why not?" Fu Yunkai looked at his mother.

"You don't understand those noble ladies, how do you know who is good and who is bad? Don't be like your brother who is fascinated by a certain woman and wants to marry her. Like the kind who only confuses men and behaves inappropriately.

, I am not allowed to marry into the family."

"Of course I won't be like him. But I have my own reasons." Fu Yunkai stood up, "Anyway, mother, don't worry about my marriage. Even if you like someone, you have to ask me first. If I agree,

Don't make any decisions before taking the next step. If I don't like it, even if you make an agreement with someone else, I won't marry you!"

With that said, he bowed and strode away.

It turned out that he didn't care about his marriage. He thought that since he was in the army for a long time, his wife at home would marry him, and the one he would get along with every month was his mother. Therefore, it would be good to marry a woman that his mother likes and accompany her.

But as he grew older, he felt that his mother was not knowledgeable enough and did not consider things thoroughly.

His father was born in a poor family, and he was able to get where he is today only by fighting with his life on the battlefield. His mother was not from a high background and was not very literate. She was far away from any political situation or court disputes. He could not expect his mother to go further.

I just hope that the wife I marry will no longer be a woman who only stares at the inner house and understands nothing.

Therefore, he would rather spend more time and energy to choose a good marriage for himself, so as not to regret it too late after finding out that the marriage is not good.

Returning to the front yard, he asked his entourage: "Have you heard everything clearly?"

"Yes." The entourage said, "Master Zhang came back to Dali Temple after coming out of the palace. Mr. Kumu went to Beining to paint. According to his concierge, someone from the palace just now summoned his old man to the palace. His family

We have sent people to Beining to summon them, and they will probably be back soon."

"Then go to Dali Temple first. Send someone to wait in front of Kang Mansion. When Mr. Kumu comes home from the palace, you will report." Fu Yun said.

Logically speaking, he should first go to apologize to Mr. Kumu, and then go to Dali Temple to apologize to Zhang Changshen. But now he can only do the other way around.

From the bottom of his heart, he was not willing to apologize to Zhang Changshen. Not to mention the natural antagonism between civil servants and military officers, just saying that Zhang Changshen ran in front of the emperor and gave them eye drops at the Pingnan Marquis Mansion made Fu Yunkai unhappy with Zhang Changshen.

But who said that Fu Yunlang was ignorant and had many verbal conflicts with Zhang Changshen? Now he has no choice but to pretend to be a grandson in front of others.
