The Dark and Foolish King: The Fierce and Crazy Concubine Has Infinite Strength

Lu Xiuyuan and his wife went over to him with great joy and asked Zhu Li, "How did you find them?"

Zhu Li patted his chest proudly and told them in a dragon-like voice how he met Chen Yi and his mother.

It turned out that the two men were bored waiting in the county government office so they went to wander the street. After wandering for a while, they saw a mother and son being chased by a group of men in black.

They didn't know what happened at first and didn't intend to intervene, but just as they were about to leave, Xiong Fei recognized Chen's mother's appearance.

So the two of them joined the battle without thinking, and easily drove away the group of men in black and rescued Chen Yi and his mother.

After listening to this, Xia Younan praised the two men for their righteousness, and then looked at Chen Yi, waiting for his explanation.

Chen's mother knew she was in the wrong, so she pulled Chen Yi to kneel down in front of them.

Chen Yi seemed to have repented, and he knelt on the ground with his mother, lowered his head and said nothing.

Lu Xiuyuan stretched out his hand towards him and said coldly: "Give the things back!"

Chen Yi's eyes were filled with guilt. After hesitating for a moment, he said, "I deserve to die. The things are no longer in my hands."

"What?!" Lu Xiuyuan's face changed, and he asked hurriedly, "How come it's not in your hands? Who did you give it to?"

Chen Yi pursed his lips into a line, clenched his fists and said angrily: "Sorry, I used it to exchange for my mother's life."

"What's going on? Didn't you rescue your mother from right under our noses?" Xia Younan couldn't help but ask.

Chen Yi was startled when he heard this, he looked up at her in surprise and said, "What? Under your noses? I have never seen you. I rescued my mother from Qu Zhengyan."

Xia Younan's eyes widened instantly, and he was so surprised that he was speechless for a moment.

Lu Xiuyuan frowned and thought for a while, his face gradually became as gloomy as ink, and strong anger burst out of his eyes.

He thought he knew what was going on.

Qu Zhengyan! It would be a waste of your talent if you didn't become an actor.

"The person who led us away and had people rescue Chen's mother from Chen's house that day was not Chen Yi, but Qu Zhengyan!" He expressed his guess, causing the others to gasp in shock.

"Qu Zhengyan? He...is related to the theft of national treasures?" Xia Younan was dumbfounded.

Lu Xiuyuan nodded heavily and thought about it carefully, only to find that there were many doubts at the beginning.

When they first arrived at the Qu family, Qu Zhengyan used the excuse of hospitality to persuade them to stay overnight, but in fact he wanted to delay them so that he could send someone to take Chen's mother away before they went to Chen's house, in order to contain Chen Yi.

The crowd did not comply, so Qu Zhengyan had no choice but to follow them. When he found out that Chen Yi had not returned yet, he tried to persuade them to leave first, but failed again.

In the end, he obviously knew that Chen Yi would be back soon, and the consequences would be disastrous if he came back.

Therefore, he found someone to impersonate Chen Yi to lead everyone away, and sent people to capture Chen's mother.

This would explain why he was the first to discover Chen Yi, and why he insisted that it was Chen Yi when no one could see "Chen Yi's" face clearly, and even pretended to be the first to chase him out.

Later, when they chased the fake Chen Yi to an alley, Qu Zhengyan actively proposed to work with him to search door by door, but of course they didn't find him.

Then when he was about to look for it again, he reminded everyone that they might have fallen into a trap and asked everyone to go back quickly.

Now that I think about it, the fake Chen Yi must have been in one of the doors that Qu Zhengyan was responsible for searching.

When Lu Xiuyuan mentioned the doubts he had thought of, Xia Younan, who had a bad temper, almost got so angry that he pinched his waist and cursed.

"Damn it, it turns out that we were played around by Qu Zhengyan from the beginning. That drama queen, it would be a waste of talent if he didn't become an actor!"

"Damn it, don't let me see him again, otherwise I'll beat him into a pulp!" Zhu Li and Xiong Fei also cursed with spit flying. They had not forgotten the grudge of being knocked unconscious before.

Lu Xiuyuan also felt very helpless. It was not that he had no suspicions at first, but because Qu Zhengyan was Qu Xiaoyou's biological father and he did not have enough evidence, he was afraid that speaking out would hurt the relationship between their friends.

"Qu Zhengyan is your boss. Did he hire you to steal the national treasure?" Lu Xiuyuan looked at Chen Yi and questioned, his heaving chest showing his anger at the moment.

Chen Yi nodded and confessed: "Yes, I was blinded by the devil for a while, and I couldn't resist the temptation of money, so I agreed to him."

Lu Xiuyuan was not surprised and asked again: "You were the first to leave the capital after stealing the national treasure, why haven't you arrived in Liuyue City yet?"

Chen Yi replied in a muffled voice: "I was possessed by a devil at the time, and I felt a little regretful after stealing the national treasure.

"I thought about all the consequences and fell into a dilemma and hesitation, so I deliberately delayed on the road for many days, wanting to think carefully about whether to do it."

"And then?" Lu Xiuyuan asked coldly.

"Then I felt that there was no turning back. Stealing the national treasure was a capital crime. If I returned the national treasure, Qu Zhengyan would definitely not let me and my mother go.

"So, what I was thinking at the time was to go back and pick up my mother first, and then think of a way to save my life."

Later, before Chen Yi entered the city, he was stopped outside the city by Qu Zhengyan. Qu Zhengyan didn't waste any words and directly killed Chen Yi, trying to steal the jade seal from him.

Only then did Chen Yi realize that Qu Zhengyan had never thought of giving him money.

That thief was a kind man praised by the people. How could he allow anyone to know his dirty and dark side?

Fortunately, Chen Yidu was smart enough to hide the seal somewhere before entering the city.

Qu Zhengyan couldn't find the jade seal on him, so he had to spare his life temporarily and threatened him with Chen's mother's life to force him to hand over the jade seal.

Chen Yi was an extremely filial son. In desperation, he made an agreement with Qu Zhengyan that he would go to get the imperial seal and he would take Chen's mother away.

When they arrived at the agreed time and place, Qu Zhengyan confirmed that the jade seal was in Chen Yi's possession and wanted to kill him again, but Chen Yi quickly took out the jade seal and tried to smash it on a stone, which frightened Qu Zhengyan again.

In the end, the two of them exchanged the person and the seal, and as soon as Qu Zhengyan got the seal, he immediately wanted to kill someone to silence him.

Fortunately, although Chen Yi was not good at other things, he was an excellent martial artist. He did not want to fight with him and escaped with his mother by climbing over rooftops and walls.

After that, Qu Zhengyan never gave up chasing them, and Chen Yi almost lost his life several times when fighting with him.

The mother and son were forced into a desperate situation. Chen's mother suggested that Chen Yi go into the city to find Lu Xiuyuan and the others, turn himself in to them, and be protected by them. Perhaps there would be a glimmer of hope.

Chen Yi agreed and took his mother into the city.

However, as soon as they entered the city and had not yet seen Lu Xiuyuan and his group, they were discovered by Qu Zhengyan's men, who sent assassins to encircle and suppress them again.

Fortunately, they met Zhu Li and Xiong Fei. These two were former bandit leaders and their kung fu was naturally excellent. They quickly rescued them from the killers.
