Chapter 306: unbearable pain
"Why did the princess come back so early?" Zhao's mother was even more surprised when she saw Fu Zheng by mistake, "Isn't this the eldest grandson of Duke Zhen's mansion?"
"Mother Zhao knows?"
Mother Zhao nodded. She had seen him twice when she was in the capital, because his facial features were too similar to those of his biological mother Zhou, so she would remember him.
"This kid is seven or eight years old, right?"
"Mommy, I'm eight years old this year." Fu Zheng replied.
Mother Zhao couldn't help but feel distressed when she saw his sallow and thin face, "I'm hungry, old man He said that the princess won't come back at noon, and I don't know if I have prepared meals, so I sent someone to ask."
Su Ying sat down on the chair, beckoned Fu Zheng to come to her, and reached out to touch him.
Fu Zheng shrank his neck in embarrassment, not knowing what Su Ying was going to do.
"Just now I thought your bones were good, and they are more suitable for martial arts than Linger and the others, but your foundation is too poor." Because of long-term malnutrition, Fu Zheng's qi and blood were not mobilized, causing the body's true qi to scatter.
"Princess, I will definitely study hard."
Su Ying nodded, stretched out his hand and tapped on his acupuncture points. In just a few moments, Fu Zheng felt his whole body warm up.
After activating the acupuncture points, the Qi and blood in the body are mobilized, and the complexion looks much better.
Soon, Mother Zhao asked someone to bring in all the food.
"Eat first, sleep well when you're full, and don't rush to practice martial arts."
Fu Zheng looked at the food on the table, and stood aside a little cautiously, "Princess, I'll just go to the servant's room to eat."
"Little brother, come and sit with me." Er Bao actively took Fu Zheng's hand and sat on the stool.
As soon as Xiao Jin entered the room, he saw an extra child on the dining table. He looked at Su Ying questioningly, and Su Ying said, "Fu Zheng, the eldest grandson of the Duke of Zhenguo."
Fu Zheng saw Xiao Jin walk into the room and quickly stood up, "See you, my lord."
Xiao Jin frowned, Zhen Guogong is a rare hero in the Chu state, they had a drink together, he remembered that he was a little drunk that time, and said that his eldest grandson was pitiful, he lost his mother when he was born.
It took seven or eight years for this to happen, but the child in front of him seemed to be about the same stature as Ling'er, not even as tall as Ji'er.
"Get up and sit down."
"Thank you, my lord." After Xiao Jin came back, Fu Zheng became more cautious.
After playing outside for a long time, the children were all hungry. Seeing Su Ying and the others pick up chopsticks, they all picked up chopsticks and started eating.
"Little brother, eat quickly, this braised pork is delicious." Er Bao wished he could become a little expert at serving vegetables, and Fu Zheng's bowl was filled with vegetables in a blink of an eye.
"Thank you, little princess, eat quickly, don't worry about me."
"Okay." Er Bao turned to look at the chicken leg in front of Da Bao, "Brother, I want to eat chicken leg."
Dabao picked up the chopsticks and picked up the chicken leg. Just as Erbao was happily holding the bowl over, Dabao put the chicken leg into his own bowl and bit down.
Er Bao opened his eyes wide, "Brother is so hateful!"
Dabao took another bite of the chicken leg as if nothing had happened, "The chicken leg is really delicious."
Erbao puffed his face angrily, took a piece of ribs and took a vicious bite, "I don't want to give my brother ribs."
Is it a lively meal?
After they were full, Su Ying let them go to the yard to play and digest.
Xiao Jin blew on the tea in his hand and sent it to Su Ying, "How did you bring Fu Zheng back?"
Su Ying picked up the teacup and took a sip with lowered eyes. Originally, she didn't want to meddle in other people's business, but when she saw the child's frail and lonely figure, she seemed to see herself in those days, so helpless.
She always has a soft heart for her children.
"Have you ever heard that if you have a stepmother, you will have a stepfather? Do you think he looks like an eight-year-old child?"
Xiao Jin frowned, and reminded: "He is someone else's child after all." If the Zhen Guogong's mansion came to ask for someone, it would be difficult for them to force him to stay.
"Seven days, I need seven days, you can prevaricate this matter."
"It's useless for you to protect him like this." Sooner or later everyone will go back.
"So, I gave him seven days to learn how to protect himself. When the opportunity is given to him, it's up to him whether he can grasp it." After all, she is not a real philanthropist. It is better to teach someone how to fish than to give him a fish.
"My lord, the Minister of Honglu Temple has come and said that he wants to see the lord."
Su Ying gave Xiao Jin a look to ask him to solve it by himself, then got up and went to the yard.
Xiao Jin resigned himself to his fate and got up, since Su Ying wanted to stay, then let him stay.
Three children were frolicking in the yard, Su Ying beckoned them to follow to the training ground.
Su Ying asked Dabao and the others to continue practicing concentration, while she took Fu Zheng to the other side.
"See the vines under that big tree?"
Fu Zheng nodded. The vines under the tree rose from nowhere, but they clung tightly to the tree, almost covering the roots of the tree.
"This thing started at the very beginning, but it can turn into a host without knowing it. This is also due to its own strength. Now you are like a vine seedling. At first, you could only live by climbing on a big tree, but can you It depends on whether you have the ability to turn against customers, if you just want to survive, I can send you back now as if I didn’t say anything.”
"No, I don't want to live."
Su Ying looked at the determination in his eyes and nodded, "If you want to be strong, you have to suffer what ordinary people can't bear."
Fu Zheng clenched his fists, "Princess, no matter what kind of pain I can suffer!"
"Okay, you can stand on the Zhuangzi and lean on it."
Fu Zheng obediently walked up to Zhuangzi and leaned on it.
Su Ying walked up to him and took a stick from his body for him to bite.
Fu Zheng didn't know why, and just as he bit the stick, he felt a sharp pain in his body.
This kind of pain was like he was being crushed by a wooden barrel by a bullying servant, almost crushing every bone in him.
"Ugh!"
Fu Zheng whimpered, and leaned tightly against the stake behind him. The pain in his body became more and more severe, and he collapsed to the ground, twitching non-stop.
But Su Ying's hand didn't intend to stop at all.
In other words, she is opening up all the blood vessels in his body. What she didn't say is that she found that this kid is a martial arts prodigy, but his meridians are blocked. If he wants to learn martial arts, he must open all the meridians, but the process is extremely painful. It is beyond human endurance.
The training items in the training camp that year also included Gu Wu, and it took her a long time to understand it.
"Well!"
"Poof!"
Maybe it was too painful, Fu Zheng vomited violently, his eyes turned white and his whole body became stiff.
Suddenly, he rolled his eyes and passed out.
