Chapter 326 Asking for money



Chapter 326 Asking for money

But Lu Rui knelt on the ground and refused to get up no matter how Gu Qingyuan pulled him.

She thought something big had happened to Lu Rui and couldn't help but feel nervous.

Lu Rui raised her head and looked at her with emerald green eyes, as if it was difficult to speak.

"As long as I can do it, I promise you."

At this time, Lu Rui said with some embarrassment: "Can I ask you for some more silver?"

After he finished speaking, he immediately lowered his head and added: "It doesn't matter if it doesn't work. I was the one who offended you. I'll go back now..."

Gu Qing chuckled, thinking it was a big deal, but it turned out to be just asking her for money.

She forcibly pulled Lu Rui up from the ground and took him to sit aside.

"No problem, if you need money you can just tell me."

Lu Rui kept thanking him: "Thank you, thank you."

She had spent a lot of money to buy him, and he had been eating and drinking for free at the Gu family for so long, yet he still wanted to ask her for money.

He felt very guilty.

Gu Qingyuan asked Chunfen to bring a fifty-liang silver note and give it to Lu Rui.

Seeing such a large denomination for him, he felt like he was holding a hot potato. He hurriedly stuffed it into Gu Qingyuan's hand and shook his head, saying, "It's too much. Just give me a little less."

But Gu Qingyuan handed the money to him again and said, "It's okay, take it. Go buy something you want."

Lu Rui's tears fell on her hands. When he heard her say this, he held the banknote tightly.

After Lu Rui left with the money, Gu Qingyuan put away his nonchalant expression and ordered, "Go check what happened to Lu Rui. He seems to be in a bad mood."

Chunfen immediately responded: "Okay, young master."

General's Mansion.

After General Gu got the imperial seal, he confirmed it again and again.

His Majesty's trust in their family further strengthened her determination to serve His Majesty until death.

With the imperial seal, we can summon the royal army openly and rescue His Majesty.

She put the seal away solemnly.

In the palace, the princess was still searching for the imperial seal.

The reason why she delayed for so long was because she didn't get the imperial seal. Without the imperial seal, she couldn't ascend the throne smoothly. Even if she forcibly eliminated the empress, she would not succeed to the throne.

But there will still be voices of doubt, especially among the public, and rumors that are unfavorable to her may spread.

The princess came to the study again and searched through the bookshelves, tables and cabinets.

But she didn't even see the shadow of the imperial seal.

"Where is it hiding?"

The more she couldn't find it, the angrier she became.

Suddenly, something occurred to her.

Since it’s not in the study, maybe it’s somewhere else?

She smiled coldly and said that once she got the imperial seal, she would be able to send her good mother off.

The princess came to the queen's bedroom.

The empress had fallen into a complete coma. Although Gu Qingyuan had fed her the antidote, the princess found that she was awake more and more, so she increased the dosage of the medicine.

Her health is now worse than before Gu Qingyuan came to see her.

The princess rummaged through the things in the empress's bedroom with great fanfare, but after searching everywhere, she still could not find any trace of the imperial seal.

She came to the Queen's bedside and woke her up.

"Mother Queen, your son is here to see you."

The Queen slowly opened her eyes and when she saw the princess standing before her, she asked her, "What are you doing here again?"

The princess supported her and asked, "Mother, I came here to ask you where the jade seal is hidden."

"Give up, I won't tell you."

The princess's expression changed. "Okay, if you don't tell me, I'll find it later. Don't blame me for not leaving you with a complete body."

The Queen spat out a mouthful of blood and said, "Oh, then I guess you can't find the Imperial Seal."

"what do you mean?"

The blood from the corner of the queen's mouth slowly flowed onto the quilt, staining it red.

"I say, it's impossible for you to find the jade seal."

The princess grabbed her neck frantically, "Why won't you hand over the imperial seal? Could it be that you gave it to someone else?"

"good."

At this time, the Queen did not hide it from her, and felt somewhat relieved.

"The Imperial Seal is not in the palace right now. As for where it is, I will never tell you."

The princess let her go and stared at her face closely.

"I will definitely find it. I will definitely get this throne."

After saying this, the princess left the Queen's bedroom.

Not long after, Zhang's father and mother found Lu Rui again.

They emerged from the cave and said confidently, "We've already spent all the money we pawned the bracelet you gave us last time. Do you have anything else of value on you?"

Lu Rui asked in disbelief, "That bracelet is worth at least a hundred taels. It's only been a few days, and you've already spent it all?"

"Your mother and I went to the casino. We originally won two hundred taels, but later we lost it all."

"casino……"

It's a bottomless pit there.

Mother Zhang urged impatiently: "You've been at the Gu family for so long, you must have a lot of money on you. Give it to us quickly."

Lu Rui shook his head and said, "You have already taken a lot from me. I don't have any money left."

Looking at the gorgeous clothes he was wearing, which were obviously made by the best tailor, Zhang's mother stepped forward and grabbed his hair, "If you dare not give it to us, we will tell Young Master Gu about your affairs."

She knew that this boy was afraid that this matter would be discovered by Young Master Gu, and as long as they brought it up, he would obediently give them the money.

“I really have no money!”

Lu Rui, who always kept his head down and dared not speak loudly, could not help but roar.

Zhang's father stepped forward and slapped him in the face.

"How dare you talk to me and your mother like that? Are you brave enough?"

He held Lu Rui down and let Zhang's mother search him.

But Lu Rui didn't have any jewelry on her.

"If all else fails, these clothes can be exchanged for money."

Zhang's mother forcibly took off his coat.

Lu Rui stood there feeling somewhat humiliated.

Zhang's father and mother cursed and crawled out of the hole with his clothes.

All of this soon fell into Gu Qingyuan's ears.

She sat at the table with a cup of tea in her hand.

Chunfen continued to report: "This is what happened. That couple looks like Mr. Lu Rui's parents. They often come to him to ask for money."

Gu Qingyuan remembered that after they sold Lu Rui, he always wanted to escape back home.

But it was because he ran away again and again that his leg was broken.

"How did they find Greenray?"

Gu Qingyuan was curious.

After all, Lu Rui was taken to various places by human traffickers. He originally wanted to find his parents, but he never found them.

Originally, she was planning to find an opportunity to find his parents for him.

But he never thought that his parents would be of such a character.

Chunfen shook his head and said, "I don't know about that."

Gu Qingyuan put down the cup and said calmly, "Come with me and take a look."
