Hua Hua You Long - Volume 2 - Chapter 15

Chapter 15

“Except for Lord Lu, Bring all these men to the Government Office to be interrogated!” Even though Jing was extremely resentful towards Lu Cang’s brothers who stirred up the situation between him and Lu Cang, he still had to stand in control and put them in order.

To let Cao Xin and the others handled by Zhang Zi dong, was like serving a lamb to a tiger ,- A very dangerous and helpless state . Lu Cang wouldn’t have approved to this.

“To beat up that dog, Zhang was my idea. What is the relevance with Cao Xin and the others? If you want to convict someone, that person will definitely be me! Just let them go, otherwise, I will never let you off!”

The Imperial guards of course didn’t have the guts to tightly hold him. The bind on him was not even a little bit tight.

The shouting and struggling Lu Cang eventually freed himself from the loosely bind rope. He charged straight at Jing.

“You are such a daredevil!” Jing stopped and captured him, using his both hands firmly bound and held Lu Cang. “Looks like I haven’t disciplined you well enough. You still bear this little mountain bandit behavior. Now, you tell me how you would like me to educate you, so that I can make you have your satisfaction.”

Ignoring Lu Cang who desperately tried to resist from his embrace, instead, he bound Lu Cang to himself even stronger, he turned his head to give order : “Ding Peng, be quick to send Cao Xin and the rest to Hang Zhou’s prefecture!”

“Your Majesty, how come there is such as send to Hang Zhou serve as punishment?” Zhang Zi Dong who was still very pleased with himself, when he learnt of such absurd punishment, being totally ignorant, complaint loudly from the side.

Before, for this kind of crime, they would have been sent to do hard labor at the border region. In any case, there wasn’t anything as to send the prisoner to Suhang (Hang Zhou ).

Zhang’s father was about to open his mouth to help his son reasoning, but upon seeing Jing glaring at them, he held back his tongue in fear. – Jing’s eyes was severely strict and cold. Jing was obviously displeased towards this father and son duo who stirred up the conflict between him and Lu Cang. If they didn’t being tactful and insisted on interrupting, who know, it might be their turn to have the bad luck. (The next one Jing’s wrath would fall upon might be them.)

“Alright, so now you are satisfied!” Jing coldly walked out the door while pulling the still in his bosom Lu Cang. Ding Peng was dumbfounded for a while. Yet, with a not knowing whether to laugh or cry face, he instructed some of his subordinates to take Cao Xin and the others away. Straightening his facial expression, he went after Jing.

“You bastard! Go Die! You didn’t even the least love (like) me. You let that dog Zhang Zi Dong to handle my brothers, I will never want to speak to you anymore….”

His hurling fierce rail at the top of his lungs dissolved to a groan in Jing’s palm. Jing tightly covered his mouth. The Lu Cang who was consumed by his anger, bit that hand.

“Would you stop already!” Jing who stung by the pain, threw Lu Cang to the ground.

Taken by surprise, Lu Cang fell flat down. Because of the shock he received from Jing’s howl of rage, he was unable to immediately crawl up to stand. He could only use his eyes to glare at Jing as the presentation of his own rage.

“Haven’t I been protecting you enough?” Jing put on an extreme irritated looks.

“With no cause, beating up a government official is an unforgiveable crime. Do you want me to order the slaughter of all of you on the spot to make you happy?”

“To die is more honorable!” Lu Cang recalled all the suffering since he met Jing. All of his bitterness was pouring out at once. Flustered by his emotion, he shout out his exasperation at Jing : “There wasn’t anything good to stay with you from the beginning. I’m not like your concubines, confined in the room all day long waiting for you. On top of that, received the insults from your court members. Do you think that I live happily? I would rather leave. Go far-far away. Never want to see you again for all my life.”

“Never want to see me again?!” Jing narrowed his eyes dangerously. His eyes emitted a piercing cold cruel light.

Each time Jing displayed this kind of facial expression, most people would tremble in terror. Lu Cang was no exception. Lu Cang couldn’t help but intimidated to the point of a little bit afraid to speak.

He could only watch Jing slowly squatted down by his side. Jing with distinct ill intention stretched out his hand to Lu Cang’s lower region. Lu Cang couldn’t even have the chance to scream for his lips was tightly covered by Jing’s.

“Ngh… ngh… “ No matter how desperate he struggled, he still couldn’t free himself. Jing’s lips, carried the intention to punish, raided on Lu Cang’s. Jing cruelly bit Lu Cang’s tongue, made him cry out in pain.

His private part was gripped firmly by Jing. This wasn’t anything like the usual gentleness he shown when making love. --Jing was using his real inner strength (chi), making the place that he touched hurt like hell. The pain was the same as being cut by knife.

“Wuu..” At long last, Jing finally loosen up his mouth. Lu Cang could sense the scent of blood. His mouth was filled with blood. – His tongue must have been wounded. And the wound must be very severe. He could tell by looking at the amount of blood that seeping out from the corner of Jing’s mouth.

His inner mouth hurt so much like he could die. He didn’t even have the strength to open his mouth, let alone to curse people. His numerous grievances was pouring out at once, even his eyes had become wet.

“Admit that you are wrong then I will let you off!” Looking at Lu Cang who covered his mouth while eyes brimming with tears, Jing felt a sting of pain in his heart.

But who would have thought, compare to a mule, Lu Cang was more stubborn. He stubbornly shook his head : “I wasn’t wrong. Even if I have to die, I still won’t admit!” Because of the painfully wounded tongue, he couldn’t properly move his tongue, thus reduced him to an unclear articulation speech.

But Jing could clearly understand him. Jing’s eyes became severe : “You have been flaunting your courage! Looks like you haven’t been taught well enough. You just want to step on my head!!”

Jing didn’t care that they were still in his subject’s mansion. He didn’t even give a damn to the imperial guards bright red faces. Now, his whole-heart was filled with the intention to give Lu Cang his lesson.

The method, it was no other than --- “Ding Peng, get your men back to the hall. And watch over the Zhang family. Not even a single person is allowed to go out!”

He pulled his belt and firmly tied the kicking and shouting Lu Cang’s hands on his back. He shoved Lu Cang to the stone bench on the corridor and held him down.

Even though for this past half year, Jing’s had changed a lot and had become more gentle on bed, But how could Lu Cang, who had tasted countless bitterness from Jing, forget that in the past Jing used to use this kind of brutal sex to torment him.

Although his mouth was hurting like hell, Lu Cang still couldn’t give up the swearing at Jing. In fact, his fear even encouraged him. He was frightened to death that he would be disgraced. (t/n: not sure how to translate this part.)

Jing of course wouldn’t pay attention to his mouthful foul language, instead he pressed Lu Cang on the bench with his back on the corridor’s pillar to make him sat on an upright posture. Jing pulled down his trousers altogether with his underwear.

“You… You actually dare to… under this broad day light in the open, do you even have a moral!!?” His naked buttocks was pressed to the icy cold stone bench. Lu Cang felt the utmost uncomfortable and spoke without caring for his words.

“You are teaching me about moral? Are you kidding me?” Jing let out a smirk to ridicule Lu Cang.

Straddle on Lu Cang’s body, he tore open Lu Cang’s front robe. He fiercely bit Lu Cang’s upper body….

Everybody in the Zhang’s family hall could hear the horrible shrieking scream. --- The Zhang family, on one side was perspiring cold sweat due to the emperor vicious method, on the other side was curious to the method. On the contrary, Cao Xin and the brothers were worried to death. All they could see was two kind of expressions on the imperial guards. Either their whole faces were turned bright red, held their own hand, or making a face like they didn’t know where to aim their sight.

The two people on the yard of course didn’t aware of the complicated feelings inside the hall. ---

Because it was to serve as a punishment, Jing had long forgotten about gentleness. He was like a hungry wild beast. He tore and bit everywhere, leaving teeth marks all over Lu Cang’s body. The skin with the teeth marks was torn to the point of seeping out trace of blood.

Lu Cang’s most vulnerable part was being gripped tightly. He couldn’t help but loosened up his gritted teeth to scream out in pain.

The hurling rail wasn’t a little bit effective for this man so Lu Cang could only endure the torture on his body. Not only unable to resist, he didn’t even have the least bit chance of escaping from this man clutch. To writhe his body was his only option to convey his protest.

The coarseness of the stone bench rubbed against his back and tore his skin. The weight of the man on his body worsened the injury and made him tremble in pain. Jing completely didn’t have the intention to cease his assault.

“Properly enjoy this, the best has yet to come!” Stopped his hands movement, Jing pulled Lu Cang’s long hair, which was damped by the sweat caused by the pain. In front of Lu Cang’s very eyes was the Jing’s filled with evil deed eyes. Through his gaze, Lu Cang could feel the malice all the way to his heart.

“Why don’t you just go to hell!” Lu Cang was overly stubborn. Initially intended to avoid his gaze, instead having Jing tightened his grip on his waist and vigorously thrust in.

Granted that he was being stubborn, he still couldn’t hold in his moan when his innermost was being penetrated…

“I will never forgive you…” His body was shaking greatly on the sharp stone bench. Lu Cang’s whole back area was bruised and lacerated. It was too horrible to look at. Even though he had fallen to the semiconscious state, he still didn’t forget to cursed between his teeth.

An hour later….

Tossing the unconscious Lu Cang in front of Zhang’s father and son, Jing casted them a sideway look. His stern and piercingly cold eyes didn’t show his emotion at all. His cold voice simply could freeze someone to death.

“Lord Lu has received his punishment by me. Both minister won’t mind my method, will you?”

The father and son looked at the Lu Cang whose whole clothes soaked with blood stain. Lu Cang’s appearance resembled a broken doll. Due to Jing vicious method, their heart was terrified by the terror, didn’t even have the courage to speak, they could only bowing and nodding to show their gratitude.

“Big brother…. It is our fault… It’s us who caused you harm…”

The youngest among the brothers, Ge Qing already couldn’t hold back his tears. He threw himself at Lu Cang’s side, he didn’t dare to touch the badly injured body of Lu Cang. He just knelt beside him and wept bitterly.

Affected by him, the sensitive ones of the brethren began to bawl while the bad tempered ones shouted abusive foul words at Jing. They charged at Jing readily to put their lives on the line. The imperial guards were occupied to keep them on check.  The whole big hall fell into a chaotic noisy place.

Jing couldn’t help but knitted his brows. : Even though Lu Cang might seem badly wounded, but in reality he only suffered from the bruises and light wound on his skin. It wasn’t anything fatal at all. As to why he fell to this unconscious state, half of it was due to the unbearable pain from the wounds, and the other was because of his temporarily weakened body as the result of receiving the highest pleasant sensation from the center of his body. --- This group of people just had to make him seem as good as dead.

“Commander Ding, I leave the matter over here for you to handle. I will deal with Lord Lu myself. Minister Zhang, hope you do not publicize this affair to the outsiders.” Jing strictly warned them through his eyes. He contently looked at the father and son who reduced to only can bowing and nodding.

He picked Lu Cang up and carried him in his arms (bridal style), then walked out just like that. Cao Xin and the others cried out loudly and about to chase after, but they were being held back by Ding Peng and his men.

“Lord Lu isn’t in a dangerous situation… “

He clearly witnessed the emperor “bestow favor” (making love) on Lu Cang, though he couldn’t comprehend how could Lu Cang lose his consciousness upon being “dote” (loved) on. But he knew for sure that this kind of “punishment” wouldn’t go as far as causing death. He busily whispered to comfort this Mount Lu Cang’s brethren.

“Nonsense.. Just now I could see Big Brother, even his penis was bleeding…. Big Brother must have been dying! Wuu… Wuu… Wuu..”

Ge Qing’s words astonished the people. Despite they were all men in this hall, hearing Ge Qing words still made them red to the ears. Cao Xin who clearly understood the relationship between Jing and Lu Cang, stopped his tears at once. He turned to Ge Qing : “What? What did you say?”

“Even that part of Big Brother was seriously injured!! Just now, I could see that under his long robe, Big Brother didn’t wear anything. I secretly gazed on it, I saw Big Brother’s upper thigh…. And that part… It was bleeding!! On top of that, there was something I don’t know what kind of white fluid mixed with blood, flowing down from his thigh. He must have gravely wounded!!” The more Ge Qing thought of it, the more his fear overwhelmed him. He wept and bawled loudly again.

“He he he….” Cao Xin laughed out loud foolishly like losing his mind. : “Brother, don’t cry anymore! Big Brother is alright!”

“What the !? Brother Xin, don’t try to deceive us! Big Brother must be dying!” Of course Ge Qing wouldn’t believe him.

“Haiii….” Ding Peng let out a sighing voice. Actually, Ding Peng who had been listening from the side couldn’t stand to listen anymore. Their talk about the state of the Royal family member’s body had to be stopped.

“Since Lord Lu is alright, everybody should come with me to Hang Zhou prefecture office now!”

What the hell with this affairs! Thinking back about this His Majesty the Emperor fantastic tale of royal judgment, Ding Peng could only complain bitterly for he had to clean up this messed up affairs.

He pointed some of his subordinates to carry out his orders. Putting up a ‘not knowing what kind of expression he should make’ on his face, Ding Peng went back to the palace. Leaving behind the Zhang’s father and son, staring blankly at each other :

“What with that part was also bleeding… “ Zhang Zi Dong was an honorable scholar. He couldn’t bring himself to say ‘penis’ out loud.

“….. White fluid… flowing down all over the thigh?” Zhang’s father was totteringly repeating these words. Afterwards, he felt like fainting.

“My son, for your sake, it’s better if you don’t annoy this Lord Lu anymore!” After considering for a while, Zhang’s father spoke through his teeth and advised his son.

………..

“Don’t want!! Don’t want!!” Perspiring profusely, cold sweat was flowing down from his forehead. Lu Cang as if being pestered by his nightmare, randomly writhed on the bed. His mouth was shouting vague words.

Jing helplessly wiped his constantly dripping sweat with a silk handkerchief. There were water seeping out from the corner of his eyes too. Jing nursing Lu Cang like this, it had been for about 6 hours long already. (t/n : it was stated 3 hours, but the writer was using the ancient measure of time in which the time was divided in 12 part, thus make the 3 hours in the story 6 hours in the present.)

He initially thought that because of Lu Cang’s strength and his ability to recover, there wouldn’t be any problem in waking up. But from the moment he brought Lu Cang to his own Royal chamber until now, a long period of time had passed. The still unconscious Lu Cang hadn’t shown any sign of regaining consciousness yet.

The imperial physician had also examined him. He explained that Lu Cang’s wound wouldn’t put his life in danger, however, his psychological problem, Lu Cang’s mental resistance, probably was the cause of Lu Cang inability to regain his consciousness. This kind of explanation only made Jing upset to the utmost.

Although he admitted that he had fallen for this little bandit king, who had nothing so special about him, Jing still had the confidence that he could restrain and control himself. He wouldn’t let himself deeply attached to Lu Cang and indulged in this love affair. --- Earlier, when the other children were still playing on the meadow, he had already made to learn the art of (skill of) controlling his own emotion.

In the history, there were countless monarch who fell to this kind of self indulging state and end up being defeated and destroyed. --- Because he didn’t want to repeat the same mistakes, Jing absolutely wouldn’t tolerate himself, to be the same as the historical self indulgent rulers, wallowed in the sensual pleasures.

Holding onto this kind of principles, Jing never gave Lu Cang any kind of actual active participation and authority. He was thinking that at the time Lu Cang committed a crime, he could always personally punish him. --- But this time, the punishment had it strong reason. Lu Cang had behaved aggressively against him in front of a crowd of his subjects. He didn’t let Jing, the emperor, had the chance to extricate from an awkward situation. Lu Cang’s insolence had greatly hurt his pride, which was far exceeding any ordinary people.

After the ‘punishment’, he had thought of a strategy to win over Lu Cang. --- Lu Cang, despite of having a bad temper, in reality he wouldn’t bear any grudges.

Precisely because of this fact, Jing was taking advantage on Lu Cang. He relied on his stick and carrot policy ( punishment and rewards counter measure) to counter balance his dignity as a ruler and to preserve his relationship with his lover.

But this time, it seemed likely there would be a little troublesome.

To mistreat Lu Cang, this wasn’t the first time. But the so called Lu Cang had never before uttered the ‘never forgive you’ sort of words.

And in addition, at the moment, Lu Cang was mentally refusing to wake up. Even Jing who always held this utmost confident over his charm in Lu Cang’s heart, was being slightly anxious.

While pondering on his feeling, the corner of Jing’s eyes caught the sight of the slightly fluttered eyes of Lu Cang. The next moment, those pair of big eyes was suddenly widely opened. --- Jing hurriedly himself to move closer : “You have waken up…”

Unconsciously, he let out a little display of warmth.
