A quarter of an hour later, Lu Yuan's hands and feet were tied up.

He gritted his teeth and said, "Is this necessary?"

Chen Long quickly tightened the hemp rope that bound Lu Yuan's wrists: "First of all, I don't know Luo San. Secondly, even if I knew him, I wouldn't know that he was the Xiangguo's biological son, so--"

He tightened his grip again, causing Lu Yuan to gasp.

He said confidently: "It's reasonable for me to tie you up!"

Bai Yuwei was stunned.

Is it really okay for you to treat Lu Yuan like this? Aren't you afraid that my grandfather will rush in and kill you?

Tan Er cried exaggeratedly, "The Grand Commander is in such a pity! Fight! Fight!"

Meng Qianqian smiled awkwardly, and when Chen Long tried to tighten the hemp rope for the third time, she stepped forward to stop him: "That's enough... Luo San is an expert in disguise, and his martial arts skills are not as deep as yours. If he uses more force, he will be exposed."

Chen Long said calmly: "Okay, let's do this for now."

Lu Yuan gritted his teeth and said, "What do you mean, just leave it at that? Chen Long, just wait for me. I will settle this account with you sooner or later!"

Chen Long snorted sarcastically.

Lu Yuan held back the shame of being put in a sack and said in a very cold tone, "Meng Xiaojiu, don't look!"

"You talk too much!"

Chen Long put someone in a sack.

Lu Yuan, who was tied up and humiliated in front of his wife, said: "Chen Long - I am not done with you -"

Chen Long swung the sack and walked out of the Governor's Mansion feeling refreshed.

Bai Yuwei asked in astonishment: "Just leaving like this... is it really okay?"

Tan Er nodded and stamped her feet, saying in annoyance: "Yes, yes, let's have a fight!"

Chen Long carried Lu Yuan on his back, climbing over rooftops and walls, bumping into people and cars along the way, and finally arrived at the prime minister's residence in a grand manner.

"Godfather, the person has been brought here."

Chen Long threw the sack onto the floor of the study.

Prime Minister Xun sat on the armchair, while Xun Qi, Shangguan Ling, and a secret guard in his thirties stood beside him.

The moment the sack was opened, Lu Yuan started to dry heave towards Chen Long.

Chen Long took three steps and retreated behind Shangguan Ling.

Shangguan Ling: “???”

God knows what Lu Yuan went through in the sack. Even though it was Lu Yuan’s face, no one recognized him.

Xun Qi raised the oil lamp and shone it in front of Lu Yuan, then pushed aside Lu Yuan's long hair and asked in surprise, "Lu Yuan?"

"What?" Shangguan Ling hurriedly took a closer look, and his body was shocked. "It's really the Grand Commander! What's going on? Is he pretending to be dead? That's not right - if he is Lu Yuan, then whose body is in the coffin?"

Prime Minister Xun's eyes fell on Lu Yuan's face, making it hard to guess what he was thinking.

Lu Yuan raised his lips and looked at him: "Adoptive father, we meet again. I am not dead. Are you disappointed? Chen Long is the top master among the Twelve Guards. I don't know why that sword missed Cun Xu? Was it your foster father's order to keep him alive?"

"You go out first."

Prime Minister Xun said to Chen Long.

Chen Longtou left the house without looking back.

Xun Qi was not surprised by Chen Long's attitude. He understood that Chen Long was different from other adopted sons. He was not truly submitting to his adoptive father, but was just being held hostage by his adoptive father.

But that is definitely a handle that will make Chen Long never dare to betray.

Prime Minister Xun winked at the secret guards.

The secret guard went to pull Lu Yuan's clothes.

Lu Yuan pushed the man away with one palm.

Unexpectedly, although the palm seemed powerful, it was easily suppressed by the secret guard. The secret guard tied his hands behind his back and tore off his shirt, revealing the blood-stained gauze.

The secret guard pulled out the dagger again, and with a sharp movement of the knife, the gauze burst, and a bloody wound appeared before everyone's eyes.

The secret guard said: "The wound is not deep, not fatal."

Lu Yuan smiled coldly: "It seems that Chen Long is not that loyal to his adoptive father."

Xun Qi frowned.

What's going on?

Prime Minister Xun winked at the secret guard again.

The secret guard understood, touched Lu Yuan's cheek, and without saying a word, pulled off a human skin mask.

Xun Qi and Shangguan Ling were both shocked.

Xun Qi stared at the less attractive face and frowned, "Luo San?"

Shangguan Ling asked curiously: "Is he Luo San?"

Shangguan Ling only got to know Luo San recently. Luo San was always elusive and the two had never met before.

Xun Qi was both angry and amused: "So it's you, no wonder you look so similar, even your voice is exactly the same, even I couldn't recognize you."

As he spoke, he turned to look at Prime Minister Xun, "Sure enough, nothing can be hidden from foster father!"

Lu Yuan wore two human skin masks in total. The upper one was his own, and this one was Luo San's. If Prime Minister Xun allowed someone to remove it again, there would be nothing he could do.

The second type of human skin mask is different from ordinary masks. Outsiders do not know its exquisiteness and cannot easily remove it. However, there are many masters in the Prime Minister's Mansion. If Prime Minister Xun really has doubts, there are ways to remove his mask.

He's gambling.

He won the bet and infiltrated the prime minister's residence.

Lost the bet——

No, he can't lose.

Prime Minister Xun looked at Lu Yuan without blinking.

Lu Yuan is not himself at this moment, he is Luo San.

It was Luo San who had longed to call him father countless times, it was Luo San who hated him for abandoning himself and his mother in countless midnight dreams, and it was Luo San who promised his mother before she died that he would never hate him in this life.

He tried everything to prove that he was a better son than Xun Yu.

But after meeting King Miao, he realized that he didn't have to fight hard for his true family, nor did he have to risk his life to prove himself.

Good or bad, they are the most precious flesh and blood in the hearts of their family.

Xun Qi smiled and said, "If you were caught by them, I should have guessed it was yours. Get up quickly."

Xun Qi reached out to help Lu Yuan.

Lu Yuan avoided his hand and said sarcastically: "They guessed that I was caught, but no one came to save me."

Xun Qi smiled and said, "Didn't you ask Chen Long to bring you back? With your godfather's intelligence, he must have guessed that it was you, that's why he did this!"

Lu Yuan looked at Prime Minister Xun again: "Really? Does he really have me in his heart?"

Xun Qi's face darkened: "Luo San, how do you talk to the lord?"

Lu Yuan smiled coldly: "Lord? You treat him as your foster father and lord, but he never treats you as his own people. Lu Yuan is right. I, Lu Yuan, and even all of you adopted sons are all Xun Yu's shadows!"

"What do you want to do with the prince again?" Xun Qi was puzzled. "Luo San, did you take the wrong medicine?"

Xun Qi thought so because he was only an adopted son and he never expected to compete with Xun Yu.

But from Luo San's point of view, he is the biological son of Prime Minister Xun.

He was jealous of Xun Yu, so jealous that he was almost going crazy!

Lu Yuan was well versed in manipulating people's hearts, so it was reasonable for him to sow discord between him and the Xiangguo and his son with just a few words.

That's right, that's it!

Lu Yuan closed his eyes, jealousy surging in his heart: "I will not work for you anymore, you can kill me or chop me up as you please!"

Xun Qi was shocked and said, "Luo San, you are crazy!"

There is no good end for betraying your adoptive father!

The secret guard drew out his sword and put it coldly against Luo San's neck.

With just one order from the Prime Minister, he would be beheaded.

Prime Minister Xun turned the jade ring on his left hand, his eyes deep.

Lu Yuan secretly clenched his fingers.

Whether you can win the bet depends on this one move!
