A strong guard raised the board up high. The thick board whizzed through the air and was about to hit Meton's buttocks. Meton closed his eyes in resignation.
According to this situation, he would definitely lose half his life. Meton prayed secretly, hoping that Old Hua would be strong enough to save him.
"Pa!"
The sound of the board hitting the buttocks was crisp and clear.
"Eh!"
Meton opened his eyes in surprise. It was not as painful as he imagined. However, why were Qin Huaiyu and the other two screaming so miserably? Meton turned his head in confusion.
"Idiot! Why aren't you screaming? "Qin Huaiyu winked at him.
Meton understood and immediately screamed out loud, as if the pain was too late. His behavior was exaggerated.
The guard behind Meton smiled helplessly. In their line of work, they had to be observant. The board seemed to be raised high, but the effect was completely different when it hit the body. If they encountered someone who really angered the emperor, they would hit the body solidly, and the flesh would definitely be torn apart.
If they encountered someone who wanted to put on a show, they would pull back at the last moment. Although it seemed powerful and the skin would be bruised and the flesh would be swollen, it was actually just some flesh wounds. After two or three days, they would be able to jump up and down again.
Moreover, three of the four people were the sons of the current Duke, and the last one was the official county Earl who founded the country. The guards had already received the hint and were just putting on a show.
"Ah! Ah! Ah! "
The four of them were competing with each other. Each of their screams was more heart-wrenching than the last. It was as if they were possessed by the best actor.
However, no matter how they put on a show, it was still a board! In the end, the pain from the various boards was still very intense. The four of them had already gone from acting to revealing their true feelings. This time, they were screaming in pain.
The ten boards were finally finished. The four of them directly lay there, holding their buttocks and sucking in cold air.
Their expressions were bitter. Qin Huaiyu and the other two only felt that they were too unlucky. They could have left their names in history, but in the end, they were punished.
Moton was speechless as he looked at his group of bad friends. He had really gotten himself into trouble this time. If it weren't for these three fellows dragging him along, he wouldn't have been implicated.
"Hiss!"
Meton wanted to get up, but suddenly felt a sharp pain. He screamed and crawled back down.
Qin Huaiyu and the other two were worrying about how to go back when a carriage suddenly stopped in front of them. The driver was a eunuch by Li Chengqian's side.
"His Highness the Crown Prince ordered this old servant to send the four of you back," the eunuch from the Eastern Palace said in a sharp voice.
Meton and the others were embarrassed. They did not expect that Li Chengqian also knew that they were going to be beaten and kindly sent them back. However, when they thought about it, how could Li Chengqian not know about the hot air balloon flying over Chang 'an City?
"Thank the Crown Prince for me!" Meton cupped his hands and thanked him.
The four of them struggled to climb into the carriage. They found that Li Chengqian had carefully prepared a quilt.
… … …
Spring returned to the earth, and the weather began to warm up. Although the morning was still a little cold, the noon sun brought enough heat to people. When it shone on people, it was warm.
Meton was lying under a big willow tree in the backyard of the Mo Mansion, greedily absorbing the heat. The hanging branches of the willow tree had begun to turn green. He believed that it would not be long before it sprouted. When the time came, the weeping willow would be a beautiful scenery again.
When the cold medicine was applied to the wound, his whole buttocks immediately felt much more comfortable. It had to be said that Senior Hua's secret prescription was indeed unique. The pain was greatly reduced. In less than two days, Meton's wound had been reduced. There was only some blood left, and it could only slowly fade.
"Senior Hua said that there are only superficial wounds left. It will be fine in two days!" Zi Yi put away the medicine and sat beside Meton and said. Looking at Meton lying beside her, Zi Yi felt inexplicably happy. Since Meton came to Chang 'an, he spent most of his time studying in the Imperial College. The two of them were not as free as they were in the Village of the Mo Family.
Although Zi Yi was Meton's maid in name, Uncle Fu and the elders of the Village of the Mo Family all treated her as their daughter. Whether it was in the Savant's Restaurant or the fresh fish shop, Zi Yi was not willing to let her do any work. Zi Yi was very bored all day.
Moreover, Meton, who came from the future, did many things by himself. He rarely needed Zi Yi's help. Now that Meton was lying in bed and recuperating, Zi Yi finally felt that she could be of use.
"Two days?" Meton frowned and said, "No, tell him that it will take five days to recover. Then ask for five days' leave from the Imperial College!"
It was not easy to get the opportunity to not go to the Imperial College. How could he not maximize the benefits?
"Haha, Brother Mo, great minds think alike. We have just asked for five days' leave from the Imperial College." Qin Huaiyu shouted from afar with a voice that was in the stage of puberty.
"If the old stubborn man in the Imperial College didn't say that he would examine my injuries if I asked for more days, I would definitely ask for ten days' leave." Cheng Chumo said gloomily.
Yuchi Baolin nodded regretfully. This guy was the worst in school and had no interest in going to the Imperial College.
Meton was speechless. He really admired the three people's abnormal physiques. He was still pretending to be dead, but the three of them were already wandering around.
"Zi Yi, make a pot of tea for the three young masters and bring a few brocade stools!" Merton said.
"No need to trouble Sister Zi Yi. We can just stand!" The three laughed awkwardly. Their injuries were not completely healed, so they could not sit at all.
"Hmph!"
Zi Yi rolled her eyes at Qin Huaiyu and the other two and reluctantly went to make tea.
In her impression, the three of them were the young master's bad friends.
Before the young master came to meet them, they were leading the Mo Family Village to sell live fish and became rich. They were simply role models.
But after meeting them, they were first punished by the Imperial College. Now, they caused such a big trouble like the hot air balloon incident and were directly beaten with a plank. Weren't they the standard bad friends?
Little did she know that the three of them were also full of grievances. He originally wanted to slack off and not do his homework. In the end, he was suddenly accused by Kong Yingda and wanted to show off in front of a group of playboys. In the end, it caused a sensation in the city.
"Modun, why are we so unlucky? It was all our hard work, but not only did we not reap any benefits, we were also punished. It all went to someone else," Qin Huaiyu said with a sigh.
"Isn't that right? Let's not talk about Mochi. We're all on the same side, so it's okay to give him benefits. But Lu Ding, that old man, was also appointed as a general by the Emperor. Now he's flying a hot air balloon to refute the rumors! "Cheng Chumo said.
The hot air balloon flew over Chang 'an City, causing the whole city to shout that the Goat Deity was alive. The hot air balloon flew around Chang' an City again to suppress the evil trend.
"You're still talking about it? If you didn't drag me there, I wouldn't have been implicated. " Meton was indignant when he thought about this matter. He did not expect that these people were so unreliable. All their efforts were ruined by a rope.
The three of them immediately flattered him and did not say anything.
"Meton, do you have any ideas that are not dangerous?" Qin Huaiyu did not give up and asked tentatively.
"No." Meton shook his head firmly and denied. If it happened a few more times, it would not be his butt that would be lost next time.
"Then forget it!"
