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

Xia Younan patted him and asked, "When do we leave?"

Lu Xiuyuan was like a deflated ball, and said sullenly, "Tomorrow, it's too dangerous to leave the imperial seal out there. If it falls into the hands of someone with ulterior motives, they can draft a fake imperial edict and send it to the border. In serious cases, it can directly cause chaos at the border and make the people miserable."

"Well, let's go to Senior Brother now." Xia Younan suggested.

"Okay, this trip will take at least a few months, so I'll say goodbye to my brothers."

"Well, no." Xia Younan shook his index finger and said with a smile, "I didn't tell you that Liuyue City is also Xiaoyou's hometown, and his father, the leader of the martial arts world, is also there.

"Chen Yi is from the martial arts world. Do you think it would be much easier if we take Xiao You with us and let the leader of the martial arts world help us investigate and search?"

"Really?" Lu Xiuyuan exclaimed in surprise, "Then this is a good thing. It will definitely save us a lot of energy."

"Well, let's go now. Xiaoyou shouldn't refuse." After Xia Younan said that, he pulled Lu Xiuyuan and ran out impatiently.

The two of them came to Jingyuan Temple and told Qu Xiaoyou what had happened, hoping that Qu Xiaoyou could go with them to Liuyue City.

I thought the righteous Qu Xiaoyou would agree immediately, but unexpectedly she looked embarrassed.

She said that everyone in Liuyue City knew that she came out to pursue Zenmu. If she returned without bringing Zenmu back, she would definitely be laughed at and lose face.

Now that things have come to this, Xia Younan took prompt action and pestered Zenmu, acting coquettishly and crying, insisting that he go with her, which made Zenmu very confused.

In the end, he could not resist the threats and inducements from his beloved daughter, and reluctantly agreed to go to Liuyue City with them.

It was not convenient to bring too many people on this trip, but it was also not advisable to go alone. So after discussion, the couple decided to bring Zhu Lixiong Fei and Xiao Chan En as well, in addition to Chan Mu and Qu Xiao You.

Su Yu was also going to go, but when the little princess heard that her lover was going on a long journey, she clamored to go with him. After being rejected, she burst into tears and was about to cry.

Everyone was at a loss for words and had no choice but to force Su Yu to stay.

Without further ado, the group of seven set out at dawn the next day and rode fast horses straight to Liuyue City.

The journey went smoothly, and the seven people arrived in Liuyue City one afternoon half a month later.

Liuyue City is a city in the Jiangnan area. Just like the cities described in poems, it is a place of prosperity and joy, with painted boats sailing at night, white walls and black tiles, small bridges and flowing water. It is so beautiful that it is hard to describe!

A few people entered the city and strolled on the bluestone path. On both sides of the road were swaying willows, clear rivers, and exquisite cottages, forming the most romantic artistic conception!

There are many small vendors setting up stalls on the streets, making this small town so harmonious and lively.

Xia Younan looked around the surrounding environment, his eyes full of love, and sighed sincerely: "It is worthy of being the Jiangnan region that all kinds of literary masters and poets compete to sing praises of. Every place is full of poetic and picturesque scenery, making people linger."

Lu Xiuyuan put his arm around her shoulders and said with a smile, "If you like it, when we get old, we can find a place like this to settle down."

Xia Younan looked at him and smiled, "Okay."

"Fuck, third brother, look at that bird, it's so pretty, look at that house, how pretty it is."

"Fuck, that woman is really pretty too."

Compared to Xia Younan's sigh, Zhu Li and Xiong Fei's sighs about Jiangnan were more straightforward...

"Hey, isn't that the eldest daughter of the Qu family?"

As they were walking, they suddenly heard a woman's voice coming from somewhere, full of gossip.

"It's her. She's back? Wasn't she so angry about the monk breaking off her engagement that she chased after the man?" Another woman's voice echoed that man.

"That's right. This young lady is so proud and arrogant that she refuses all the marriage proposals from famous families. She just falls for a monk. It's really strange."

"That's right. The key is that the monk doesn't like her, and he made her lose face in front of so many people. Tsk tsk, it's so embarrassing. It makes her father lose face."

What they said seemed to have set the tone, with more and more people on the street pointing at them, buzzing around like flies in a toilet.

At this time, someone cast his eyes towards Chanmu, and discussed with the people around him in surprise: "Hey, you see there is a monk next to her, is he the monk who abandoned her? She really brought him back?"

"It seems to be him. So what if he is brought back? He is a monk. She must have forced him. A forced melon is not sweet!"

"She doesn't want the one she likes, and the one she wants doesn't like her. It's really ridiculous!"

The sound of passers-by talking could be heard everywhere, and since they were all martial artists with excellent hearing, they naturally took in everything they said.

The smile on Xia Younan's face gradually disappeared, and he looked at Qu Xiaoyou with a frown.

The girl seemed to have expected it. She walked by herself with a gloomy face, without saying a word, and she was too lazy to pay attention to the gossips.

Xia Younan guessed that this kind of situation would happen, but when she actually saw it, she felt that it was even more excessive than she had imagined.

These gossips are really hurtful to a girl, especially a proud girl like Xiaoyou.

Sighing sadly, she turned her gaze towards Zenmu again.

It seemed that the eldest senior brother thought the same as she did. His brows were furrowed into a knot, his face full of worries. Occasionally he glanced at Qu Xiaoyou beside him, and his eyes were full of guilt and self-blame.

The discussions became louder and louder, with occasional excessive remarks mixed in. Xia Younan became furious and gave a stern look to Zhu Li and Xiong Fei beside him.

Zhu Li and Xiong Fei immediately understood, turned around and looked at the group of gossipers, rolled up their sleeves and walked over cursing.

"Hey, what do you want to do?" Soon, the gossip voices turned into the panicked voices of the gossips, and soon the buzzing sound disappeared.

"Hehe, Xiaoyou, they are talking nonsense, don't take their words to heart." Xia Younan smiled awkwardly and comforted Qu Xiaoyou.

Qu Xiaoyou seemed to not want to talk about this topic. She quickened her pace and hurried to somewhere with a blank expression. "Let's go, let's go to my house first. My father should be home now."

"Yes." Lu Xiuyuan responded, took out a large silver note from his pocket, handed it to Chan En, and said, "Brother-in-law, go buy some good gifts. There are so many of us, it would be bad to go empty-handed."

"No need!" Qu Xiaoyou tried to stop him, but Chan En ignored her, took the banknote, looked at the shops on both sides of the street, and ran into a gift shop quickly.

Qu Xiaoyou looked at the shop that Chan En entered and smiled, jokingly saying, "Interesting, buy things from my house and have them delivered to our house."

"Hmm?" Xia Younan was puzzled. "What do you mean by your things?"

Qu Xiaoyou raised her chin towards the shop and said, "That's my family's property."

"Oh~" Xia Younan nodded in understanding, sighing in his heart that the leader of the martial arts world has also entered the business circle.

The store is huge, luxuriously decorated, and located in a prosperous prime location, so most people cannot afford to open one.

"And that one, that one..." Qu Xiaoyou pointed to two other large stores and introduced them to them, "That's also my family's business. If you need to go in, just say my name, you don't have to pay."

"Wow, Xiaoyou, your family is so rich." Xia Younan exclaimed repeatedly.

This street is as prosperous as the capital city. Xiaoyou's family actually owns three shops here. It can be seen that the financial resources of this leader of the martial arts world should not be underestimated.

Qu Xiaoyou shook his head and explained, "My family owns more than 20 properties in Liuyue City. If we can make a profit normally, we are worthy of being the richest man in the city.

"But because my father had a great heart, most of the profits from the shop were donated to poor families for building bridges and roads, and the money in our home was only enough to feed and clothe us."

After hearing her words, several people sincerely admired her. Xia Younan even gave her a thumbs up and praised her. "It turns out that the leader is also a kind-hearted person who helps people in need. We really admire him."

There was pride in Qu Xiaoyou's eyes. She was proud to have such a father.
