Chapter 328 Fighting
Mother Zhang gritted her teeth, put the clothes down, and said, "Twenty taels is twenty taels, give me the money."
The boss took the clothes from her hand, then counted out twenty taels of silver and handed it to her.
After Zhang's mother got the money, she came outside.
Father Zhang said, "Wife, should we go buy something to eat? After all, we haven't had a full meal in such a long time."
There is a restaurant next to it, and at this moment, the tempting aroma of food wafts from inside.
They walked in and ordered a table full of dishes.
While eating, the two discussed what to do next.
"We've been out for so long," Zhang's father said with a worried look on his face. "Do we have to stay in the capital forever?"
The dishes they ordered cost them two taels of silver. Prices in the capital were high, and this money was enough for them to spend for a long time in their hometown.
Zhang's mother ate her meat with big mouthfuls and said nonchalantly, "After that damn girl got married, she gave birth to two sons who lost money, and died before she could even give birth to a daughter. Even if we stay at home, what good will it do? Besides, there will always be people asking for debts at home. Let that damn girl pay for us."
Ever since she went to the casino with her good friend, she witnessed the luxury inside.
There, you can win more money in one night than an ordinary person can earn in a lifetime.
It was from then on that she became addicted to gambling.
Not only did he lose all his family fortune, but people kept coming to his house to collect debts.
Later, she simply sneaked out of the house with Zhang's father, took some clothes and ran away, leaving the mess to their daughter Zhang Sanhua.
On the way to escape, the two men inquired about the whereabouts of their son Zhang Goudan, whom they had sold.
Knowing that he had followed the human traffickers all the way to the capital, he went to the slave market and found out that it was the young master Gu from the general's mansion who bought him.
Because Lu Rui has had a pair of green eyes since he was a child and has a strange appearance, which leaves a deep impression on people after seeing him.
This also made it much easier for Zhang's father and mother to find out his whereabouts.
Now seeing that he was well-fed and well-clothed by Young Master Gu's side, and had servants to serve him, they felt very unbalanced.
He's just a wild child without parents that they picked up. Why is he living better than them now?
After finishing all the food on the table and even licking the plates, Zhang's father and mother stood up and went outside.
"Where are we going next?" Zhang's father asked her.
"I'm full and my luck is getting better. Let's go to the casino."
In order to better retain customers, the casino even set up a rest area, as well as some fruits and snacks, but these can only be obtained for free after consumption.
Otherwise, some people who want to take advantage will come in and eat and drink for free.
Zhang's mother continued to go to the casino without giving up.
The people in the casino already knew her and took her inside.
But not long after, she lost all her money again and even owed a debt of one hundred taels of silver.
"Go, go, go! If you can't gather this hundred taels of silver within half a month, I'll cut off your arm."
The person in charge of the casino spoke viciously to Zhang's mother.
Mother Zhang shrank her neck in fear, yelling, "It's just a hundred taels of silver. I'll win it back sooner or later."
Zhang's mother was forced to sign and seal her name before being thrown out.
She got up from the ground, her arms bruised.
a few days later.
General Gu was holding the imperial seal. Those who originally wanted to stop her immediately knelt down after seeing the seal.
"I am here to take His Majesty away by His Majesty's order."
At this time, General Gu was wearing a military uniform and armor on his head, looking mighty and impressive.
Behind her were a group of soldiers, holding long knives or swords in their hands.
After arriving at the palace, General Gu went directly to the Queen's bedroom.
But at this time, the place was heavily guarded, and after General Gu took out the jade seal, those people hesitated.
They all obeyed the princess's orders. Seeing that General Gu wanted to force his way in, they started fighting with General Gu's men.
The princess soon found out about this.
When she learned that the imperial seal was in General Gu's hands, she took a step back in shock.
"The Queen Mother is crazy!"
The Gu family originally had a large number of troops, and General Gu was seen as invincible in the eyes of the people.
Now that the imperial seal has fallen into General Gu's hands, isn't this just waiting for the Gu family to rebel?
The princess changed her clothes and went to confront him.
At this time, the fight outside was already in full swing.
General Gu entered the palace today with only one purpose, which was to take the empress away.
If she stayed in the palace, the situation would only get worse.
The Crown Princess and Prime Minister Yuan are eyeing the throne covetously, and they will definitely not let the Empress go.
After taking the empress to the general's mansion, she still has a chance of survival.
Even if someone points at her back and scolds her for using the emperor to control the princes, it doesn't matter.
The Queen's safety is the most important thing now.
When the princess arrived, she angrily scolded General Gu, "General Gu, what is your intention in barging into the palace?"
General Gu said calmly, "I simply wish to take Your Majesty away."
The princess sneered, "It seems that your Gu family has already made this plan. Now that I am here, who dares to approach the Queen Mother?"
As she spoke, she gave an order and the group came out from the darkness.
And on the palace wall, there were archers aiming their arrows at this side, with the arrows on the strings, ready to be fired at any time.
General Gu said to the princess with some disappointment, "Your Highness, I believe you know very well how His Majesty treats you. Now, in order to ascend the throne as soon as possible, you are poisoning His Majesty. This will only chill her heart."
Moreover, even the princess's biological father, Queen Feng, was imprisoned by the princess's people and kept in Fengming Palace, unable to communicate with the outside world.
The princess bit back, "Why shouldn't I, the princess, let General Gu intervene? But you, bringing people into the palace, are you planning a rebellion?"
General Gu took out the imperial seal and said, "I am here to take Your Majesty away by Your Majesty's order."
Looking at the jade seal, murderous intent filled the princess's eyes.
She had been searching for it for so long, but now it was in General Gu's hands.
Haha, her mother is really great.
"Without further ado."
The princess's men fought with General Gu's men.
After seeing the jade seal, another group of people belonging to the empress also quietly appeared, joined General Gu's team, and fought with the princess's people.
Suddenly, the palace was filled with the sounds of swords clashing and swords piercing flesh.
The ground was stained red with blood, and the air was filled with a fishy and sweet smell.
During the fight, General Gu's figure had already flashed to the door of the Queen's bedroom.
When the princess saw this, she immediately ordered, "Catch her! Don't let her take the Queen Mother away."
If General Gu took the person away, her plan would fail.
The Queen vaguely heard the noise.
