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

Once Miss Qingyue was rescued, everything became clear.

Chanmu learned the whole story from Qingyue. Feeling extremely guilty, he rushed to the prison to pick up Qu Xiaoyou overnight.

The cell was as dark and damp as ever, with a musty and sour smell filling the air, making one hold their breath.

Led by the jailer, Chanmu came to the cell where Qu Xiaoyou was. Through the cold iron bars, he saw Qu Xiaoyou sitting in the corner with her arms around her knees.

I saw her raising her head slightly, staring blankly at the small window on the upper right, with no expression of sadness or joy on her face, and no one knew what she was thinking.

Perhaps out of respect for Lu Xiuyuan and his wife, the officials did not make things difficult for her.

She was still wearing the same red dress she had worn before she came here. Her clothes were neat and her face was clean, but... the iron chain on her hand hurt people's eyes a little.

Zenmu frowned, ordered the jailer to open the locked door, and walked in himself.

When Qu Xiaoyou heard the noise, she looked towards them, but after just a glance, she looked away and continued to look out the window, obviously not intending to pay any attention to Zen Mu.

Zenmu knew he was in the wrong, so he said nothing more. He walked over to her, squatted down, and took out the key given by the jailer to open the iron chain on her hand.

Qu Xiaoyou shook her hand and rejected his kindness.

Zenmu was frustrated, sighed, and apologized to her sincerely: "I'm sorry, I wronged you."

Qu Xiaoyou's eyes moistened when he heard this, but he was not so easy to talk to. He said sarcastically, "I don't deserve it. I am a person who takes human life lightly and tells lies all the time. How can I deserve your apology, Saint Monk?"

Zenmu felt extremely guilty, and continued to apologize to her regardless of her ridicule, "I'm really sorry, I was confused for a moment, Miss Qingyue has already told me, she said that if it weren't for you, she would have been ruined by that beast.

"You saved people from danger, I shouldn't have criticized you without knowing the truth."

Qu Xiaoyou snorted coldly, looked at him coldly and questioned: "Do you only believe your own eyes? If Younan hadn't believed in me and investigated and redressed my grievances, would you have let me be arrested by them and then convicted me and executed?"

"I..." Zenmu was speechless. He lowered his head and dared not look into her eyes after being accused by her.

"I won't do that again..." After a long while, he murmured like a child who had done something wrong.

He had been keeping a low profile, so Qu Xiaoyou couldn't continue scolding him. She lowered her eyes and said sadly, "Being misunderstood by the whole world is not as sad as being misunderstood by just you."

Zenmu felt even more guilty after hearing this, and patiently apologized to her again and again, "I really know I was wrong. If this happens again next time..."

"How?" Qu Xiaoyou interrupted him and asked.

She was a child of the underworld, born with a chivalrous heart, destined not to be as compassionate and sympathetic as him. She wanted to hear what he would do if she hurt someone's life again in the future.

Zenmu pondered for a moment and said, "If something like this happens again next time, you should stop it first and then report it to the authorities. Let the authorities handle it according to the law, and then you won't get into trouble."

"Heh~" Qu Xiaoyou sneered as if she had heard something funny, and refuted his words, "Wood, this is the first time I have seen someone as simple as you. If the government can take care of everything, there will be no criminals in this world."

"Why do you say that?" Zenmu frowned in confusion.

Qu Xiaoyou: "Based on what happened this time, if I didn't kill the Shangshu's son and report him to the government to arrest him, do you think the government would dare to offend a third-rank Shangshu?

“Even if you encounter an official who is not afraid of power, are you sure that the Shangshu’s son will be sentenced to death?”

Zenmu pursed his lips, unable to speak.

Qu Xiaoyou continued, "If he is not sentenced to death, do you think he will seek revenge after he is released from prison? With the power and character of the Shangshu, they have countless ways to make Qingyue's family, or even the entire village, disappear!"

"This..." Zenmu was speechless after hearing what she said.

He also knew that the Shangshu regarded human life as worthless. Not only did he want to use the victims to bury his son, he also threatened the entire village with his own life.

After thinking for a while, he asked, "What do you think?"

A hint of cruelty flashed across Qu Xiaoyou's eyes, and she uttered a word in a cold voice: "Kill!"

Zenmu was stunned, lowered his head and said "Amitabha", and didn't say anything else.

"If this happens again next time, will you still blame me? Will you still stop me?" Qu Xiaoyou stared at him and asked seriously.

Zenmu closed his eyes, struggled in his mind for a long time, and finally shook his head slightly as if he had made some important decision.

He admitted that she was right.

Tolerating bad people is being cruel to innocent people.

There are too many injustices in this world, and it is too far-fetched to rely solely on the government.

Perhaps he should change his mind.

Seeing him shaking his head, Qu Xiaoyou was overjoyed. A smile appeared on his serious face, and he said with relief: "Not bad, it's not a rotten wood, it can be carved!"

Zenmu sighed, took the key and tried to open the chain on her hand again, "Miss Naqu, can you forgive me?"

Qu Xiaoyou stopped throwing tantrums and let him take off the cold iron chain on her hand. She rolled her eyes and said proudly, "Okay, if you marry me, I will forgive you."

Zen Mu was startled, and felt like crying but couldn't. "Miss Qu, you..."

Qu Xiaoyou rolled her eyes, not expecting him to agree, and said sullenly: "Since you don't want to marry me, then carry me back. I don't want to walk."

"Ms. Qu, men and women should not touch each other." Chan Mu really couldn't do anything with this girl.

Qu Xiaoyou looked up to the side, her expression extremely arrogant, "I came here because I was angry with you. If you don't carry me back, I won't leave!"

Every nerve in Zenmu's body revealed helplessness. Thinking of the hurtful words he had said to her at that time, the guilt made him unable to say no.

Looking at the dark night outside the window, he thought that no one would see him in the dead of night. After considering it again and again, he finally compromised and turned around to squat in front of her.

"Come up, Miss Qu."

Qu Xiaoyou chuckled, stood up slightly and threw herself on his back, wrapping her slender arms around his neck.

In summer, clothes were thin, and a soft and fragrant jade was pressed against his back. Zenmu could clearly feel the warmth and softness coming from his back, and his ears quickly turned red.

"Let's go." Qu Xiaoyou's breath was as sweet as orchid beside his red ears, and a fragrance unique to girls drifted straight to Zenmu's nose.

Zenmu chanted "Amitabha" in his heart, closed his eyes, took a deep breath, then stood up and walked out with her on his back.

At si o'clock, the night was deep and the empty streets were silent. The bright moonlight cast a faint glow, coating the night with a layer of silver-white gauze.

Zenmu carried Qu Xiaoyou on his back as they walked on the road, the moonlight making their shadows very long.

No one spoke and the atmosphere was a little subtle.
