I don't know if it's because of Xi Duyun's body temperature or the water temperature, Qi Lichen felt that Xi Duyun's hands were very hot.

The man froze for a moment, feeling Xi Duyun's horror and trembling, his cold eyes softened, and he held Xi Duiyun's hand in his hand with his backhand, his palm was large enough to wrap Xi Duiyun's hand in its entirety.

"Don't be afraid, everything has me, what happened after you left the county, tell me carefully."

Xi Duyun was just running in the sugarcane forest, and he didn't know that his face was scratched by the leaves. She usually loves cleanliness and can't tolerate a little filth on her body, but now her hair is stained with mud and dead leaves, and she looks extremely embarrassed.

Despite this, her mind was not on grooming, which shows how hard what happened to her.

Qi Lichen took a wooden comb to comb Xi Duiyun's hair, carefully rinsing the sludge from his hair, his movements were extremely gentle, and he couldn't bear Xi Duiyun to lose a single hair. Xi Duyun held Qi Lichen's hand, only in this way could she feel at ease.

His lips trembled and he said what happened in the sugar cane forest, and after hearing this, Qi Lichen pulled Xi Duyun's washed hair to the side: "You bathe and change your clothes in peace first, I will guard outside the door, and I promise you that I will keep you safe one day with me." ”

Qi Lichen handed the wooden comb to Xi Duyun, closed the door and waited outside the door. Xi Duyun sank his body into the water completely, untied his clothes and washed his body, the wound on the soles of his feet hurt a lot when he touched the warm water, which would relieve his senses and make his whole body uncomfortable.

After the assassination in the sugarcane forest, Xi Duyun fell ill that night, and kept dreaming that when he lowered his head, a long knife slashed from behind him, cutting off the handle of the oil-paper umbrella, and the muddy water splashed in the puddle on the umbrella cover somehow turned into blood.

Qi Lichen stayed by Xi Duyun's side every step of the way, wiping sweat and feeding Xi Duiyun with water, and the doctor who saw the doctor was invited by Aunt Liu.

In the past, Xi Duyu was the most prone to crying when he encountered trouble, but now he is very sensible, and he didn't trouble Qi Lichen, and obediently helped to burn wood and boil water in the kitchen. Qi Lichen didn't have any orders, so he obediently sat on the side and guarded Xi Duyun.

In the dead of night, a dark shadow appeared outside the window: "Pavilion master, my subordinates have checked and found no clues." They acted cautiously, did not leave any clues in the sugar cane forest, and their subordinates were incompetent, so they asked the cabinet master to punish them. ”

Qi Lichen took a towel and soaked it in water, slowly wringed it out and applied it to Xi Duyun's forehead, his eyes were cold and terrifying.

"They came suddenly, through no fault of yours. I don't know if it's related to the promotion of Quyuan Plough, or because of me. ”

After the incident, although Qi Lichen immediately ordered someone to investigate the identity of the group that assassinated Xi Duyun, it was Qi Lichen's expectation that they could not find clues, they came while they were unprepared, I am in the open enemy, and it is not surprising that I can't find clues.

It's just that Qi Lichen has been thinking about it for a few days, and he doesn't understand why the people behind the scenes want to attack Xi Duyun.

In terms of identity, Xi Duyun is just a country woman with no background, and there is no reason for them to waste so much effort.

If it is related to Qi Lichen himself, he can't think of what went wrong for a while, his whereabouts are well hidden, only the prime minister's side knows, but the prime minister has no reason to kill Xi Duyun.

Qi Lichen racked his brains and couldn't figure it out, so he rubbed his temples with a headache, it's just that there is no clue about this matter, and it is not easy to investigate. Qi Lichen pondered for a moment, and then made a decision in his heart.

"Bai Ye, you immediately go to the county town to buy a house, take care of everything in one day, and ask Qing'er to assist you." Since they dare to chase down the sugarcane forest, they will not go far here, and they can't live here.

Xi Duyun was assassinated, Qi Lichen didn't close his eyes for a few days, and running outside in the white night was just acting on orders, and the pavilion master was hard.

"The subordinates obeyed the order, and the fixed speed was arranged for the cabinet host." Bai Ye responded, held back a few words in his heart, and swallowed it back when he came to his mouth.

When Xi Lao'er's family had not yet gone, although Xi Duyun had a hard life, he was rarely sick, Qi Lichen took care of it, and watched the fever subside, but he didn't wake up.

The doctor said that he was frightened, his mind was uncertain, and he would wake up after a period of recuperation, but the time to wake up was sooner or later, and it depended on the individual.

Bai Ye can be the protector of Qingyu Pavilion, and he has his own advantages, and it really took less than a day to set up the house.

Most of the servants were transferred from the Qingyu Pavilion, and half of them were bought from outside, and the background was also checked, and their backgrounds were all innocent.

There was nothing to clean up in the place where the Xi Duyun sisters lived, so they hired two carriages, one for people and the other for the things that needed to be taken away.

After moving into the mansion, Qi Lichen divided the mansion into two and lived on one side, so as not to cause inconvenience to Xi Duyun.

In the blink of an eye, it has been three days since I lived in Xinfu, and when the sky is white, the first snow of the year will follow.

The charcoal fire in the stove in the bedroom was red, and the woman on the bed closed her eyes tightly, frowning, not knowing what she dreamed of in her dream, Qi Lichen sighed and raised his hand to smooth the woman's frowning.

When his fingertips touched Xi Duyun's eyelashes, Qi Lichen's hand froze, was he feeling sorry for her?

Distressed? Qi Lichen's fingertips trembled slightly, when did he start to feel distressed. Strange feelings grew in Qi Lichen's heart, this wonderful and strange feeling, Qi Lichen did not resist.

When Qi Lichen shook his head, Xi Duyun's eyelids moved, and when those eyes opened, Qi Lichen's eyes also brightened.

"Twilight! You're awake! You...... Are you thirsty? If you want to eat or not, I immediately asked people to make it. Qi Lichen clumsily helped Xi Duyun to get up, and he was a little at a loss.

Xi Duyun slept for a long time, his head was still groggy, and he pulled the corners of his mouth at Qi Lichen's worried eyes.

"I'm fine, just a little thirsty, this ...... What kind of place is it? Xi Duyun looked around the room, where was this bedroom like his home.

The mahogany carved bed was hung with silk curtains, and the furnishings in the room were simple and elegant, but everything seemed to be worth a lot, and it was not the same grade as the earthen house in Xi Duyun's impression.

"I'm worried that those people will attack you again, so I let Bai Ye buy a new mansion in the county seat, we only lived in it for a few days, and it is also close to the Sugar Heart Pavilion, and it is safer to live here than in the South Village."

Qi Lichen poured a glass of water and handed it to Xi Duyun, the window in the room opened a small crack to ventilate, and a few snowflakes flew in from the window, landed on the corner of the table, and melted after a while.

"You're not happy?" Xi Duyun looked outside and didn't speak, and Qi Lichen's heart also came up. Although the earthen house in Nancun is old, it is still the place where Xi Duyun's parents lived, and it should be reluctant to move it out suddenly.

"You are planning for my own good, how can I not be happy. How long did I sleep, it was snowing outside. ”

The newly added charcoal in the stove was burning brightly, warming the entire bedroom, but Xi Duyun still felt chills.

"I slept for seven days." Qi Lichen's voice was clearly cold, but the heaviness in his tone made people's hearts tighten.

"It's only been seven days, I'm not awake, don't cry with a sad face, and the light rain will be whispering in my ear."

Although it was snowing, the whole person was wrapped in something, and he didn't feel cold at all, something was fleeting in Qi Lichen's eyes, and when Xi Duiyun wanted to see it clearly, Qi Lichen's eyes returned to their usual silence.

"Xiaoyu, I ordered someone to take care of it very well." Qi Lichen explained stiffly, and Xi Duyun frowned when he heard this, not knowing why.

"I know." Qi Lichen's love for Xi Duiyu is no less than his own, even if Xi Duiyun doesn't open his mouth, he will take care of it.

Since she woke up, Qi Lichen has been explaining, and the explanation is very lame, with careful temptation.

Xi Duyun was stunned, pretending to inadvertently sweep Qi Lichen's hand, his hand was clenched tightly, and his joints turned a little white from too much force. Xi Duyun suddenly had mixed feelings, not knowing whether to be happy or distressed.

After the two got along after the marriage was decided, Xi Duyun discovered the cuteness of Qi Lichen's character.

He always had a cold face in front of outsiders, and when he arrived in front of Xi Duyun, he unconsciously brought caution.

He was afraid that she would be unhappy about everything, so he was following Xi Duyun's pace most of the time, and he didn't realize it himself.
