Zhao Xi carried Luo Qing all the way back to Furong Courtyard.

Furong Courtyard is her boudoir, although the two of them are already engaged, but this boudoir is Zhao Xi's first time, but he has been to Furong Courtyard many times, so he is not a stranger.

After walking into Luo Qing's boudoir, Zhao Xi put her on the beauty couch, followed the familiar find the copper basin, asked Xiaohuan who was waiting outside to bring a basin of hot water, and personally pinched the moist handkerchief to gently wipe Luo Qing's face, when the handkerchief rubbed against Luo Qing's slightly red and swollen eyes, he couldn't hold back the distress anymore, and hugged Luo Qing into his arms.

Leaning on Zhao Xi's warm arms, Luo Qing finally found some groundedness, and after feeling relieved, the ensuing heat in her eyes made her sobble in Zhao Ling's arms.

Facing Luo Qing who cried in his arms, Zhao Xi immediately became a little scrambling, he knew Luo Qing's character very well, and knew that his little girl was soft on the outside and strong on the inside, if it wasn't for Luo Cheng who had such a big thing happen tonight, the little girl would never have cried like this.

"Scared, isn't it?" Zhao Xi held Luo Qing's shoulder, asked in her ear in a gentle voice, and at the same time picked up the handkerchief again, and took the trouble to wipe the tears that flowed from her eyes for her.

Luo Qing heard Zhao Xi's gentle voice, raised her head to look at his handsome face, and showed her vulnerability and fear in front of him.

She knew that she couldn't cry in front of her brother, because her brother was in Zhang Luo's father's affairs, and she couldn't make trouble for her brother anymore; She can't cry in front of Xiaohuan, because Xiaohuan will cry more than her, and in the end she needs her to comfort this simple-minded little girl; In front of her mother, she needs to show her strong side, because her mother has always been weak and her health is not very good, and if she cries, her mother will be even more sad.

In front of her loved ones, she needs to endure her emotions and wrap herself layer by layer, looking like she is wearing thick armor and is indestructible.

From childhood to adulthood, she grew up in praise, she has heard many people praise her for being sensible and well-behaved, and even her mother thinks that she is the most dignified and demure young lady in the capital; But only she knows that in order to live as others say, she has to constantly force herself, can't show her true emotions, can't indulge herself, and sometimes can't even cry and laugh.

But now she doesn't!

In front of her favorite man, she can let herself become an ignorant little girl, and let herself vent her emotions that she never dared to show, because she knows that in this world, there is someone who will take care of her like a treasure, and will rush up to protect her as soon as she is sad and sad.

So seeing Zhao Xi's gentle appearance now, how can he not move Luo Qing?

She looked at him fragile with a pair of tearful eyes, like a helpless child, relying on him wholeheartedly, and asked, "Lord, you tell me, Daddy, he'll be fine, right?" He's going to get better, isn't he? ”

How could Zhao Xi not see the dependence of the little girl in front of him on him?

For her trust in herself, Zhao Xi is naturally full of use; In front of him, his beloved little girl has always been decent and sensible, so she makes him feel well-behaved and at the same time feel a little distance; Because no matter how dignified and sensible Luo Qing is, she is just a little girl who has just passed Jixuan, at her age, she should be the purest and most arbitrary, just like the third sister-in-law, cry when she should cry, laugh when she should laugh, and even dare to quarrel with her husband.

When he was with Luo Qing, Zhao Xi didn't envy anything, the only thing he envied was that the third sister-in-law dared to show her true temperament in front of the third brother; And his little girl seems to be good at suppressing her personality since she was a child, so she never shows a gentle and unexpected personality in front of him; She is like this, so he always feels that he is rejected by her outside her world, and he will never be able to touch her true heart.

But right now, looking at her tearful appearance at herself, Zhao Xi felt full of satisfaction; She finally revealed her true emotions in front of him, and finally like a child, she regarded him as a lifeline that could save her, and relied on him wholeheartedly; Does that mean that in her heart, his position has become more and more important?

Thinking of this, Zhao Xi's tenderness was more like being soaked in water, holding the tearful little girl in his arms, letting her little head rest on his strong shoulders, and patting her gently with his other hand, as if coaxing the crying little girl, and said: "Qing'er, don't worry, this king has brought the imperial doctor, and the adult he will definitely turn the corner, and you have also seen it, the third brother is also guarding the adult's side, my third brother is very powerful, with him, he will definitely ensure that the adult is okay." ”

Hearing Zhao Xi mention His Royal Highness the Crown Prince, Luo Qing closed her eyes even more sadly, and big tears slipped helplessly down her delicate face, and said: "After my father told me that he took over the case of Chu Shizi's murder of Zhou Guifei, I was worried all day long, and I always felt that there was something unspeakable here; My father's character was upright, and he knew how to be flexible, and if he really found something that could not be said, it would undoubtedly be dangerous for him; However, I also know my father's personality, and it is impossible to persuade him to withdraw from this case at this time, and the only thing I can do for my father is to pray for his safety at home, hoping that this case will end soon; Unexpectedly, before the case was completed, his father was assassinated; Lord, you said, our Luo family rarely has a grudge against people in the capital, and my father is also a gentleman, who is so resentful of him that he wants to hurt him at this time? ”

Zhao Xi knew the personality of his future father-in-law, so he would not believe that Luo Cheng's injury was caused by a grudge with others; On the way to hear that Luo Cheng had an accident, he thought about it carefully, and the only thing that made him feel suspicious was the recent case of Chu Shizi killing Zhou Guifei that Luo Cheng intervened in.

Right now, even Luo Qing has taken this into account, how could he not think of it?

It's just that too many people are involved in this case, even the third brother and sister-in-law are among them, he was worried that Luo Qing would be angry with the third brother and them because of this incident, so he hurriedly lowered his head and explained to her: "My lord, if something happens to him, we don't want to see it, you also saw the appearance of the third brother just now, you must be very angry with the person who hurt people when you see him looking like he wants to kill someone; Qing'er, I know that he is very innocent of being involved in this case, but now that Lord Luo has become like this, the third brother's heart must be the most uncomfortable; The third brother believes that Chu Shizi is a person, and he is definitely not the kind of person who kills good blood, so he will try his best to help Chu Shizi find evidence, and I also believe that the reason why Lord Luo is willing to agree to help is not only because the third brother took the initiative to find him, but most importantly, he also believes in Chu Shizi's character and wants to give him a clean slate. ”

Luo Qing was smart, and immediately understood the meaning of Zhao Xi's words, was he worried that she would be angry with the crown prince and the crown princess because of her father's injury?

In fact, she didn't want to hide it from him, the moment she saw her father's life hanging by a thread, even Zhao Ling, who was the crown prince, was annoyed by her at that moment; In the past few days, her father has been busy with Chu Shizi's case, but she has seen it with her own eyes, and now her father was seriously injured on the way home, she is not stupid, and she guessed that this may be related to the case handled by her father.

Therefore, at that moment, she really resented the prince, thinking that he had let his innocent father wade into troubled waters, and it was also him, and the father who had harmed him was still lying on the bed dying, waiting for help.

But this thought only lingered in her mind for a moment, and was quickly forgotten by her.

Since she was a child, her parents have hoped that she will grow up to be a sensible, well-behaved, and good child who knows right from wrong, and she has never disappointed them in the face of her parents' hopes; But right now, she is so narrow-minded because of her father's injury that she is so displeased with the prince in her heart, if her father knows, I am afraid that she will be cold.

Therefore, the resentment in her heart gradually dissolved when she saw her father's pale face, she knew that her father was willing to help the prince because of the righteousness and affection in her father's heart, she couldn't be like an ignorant child, she didn't understand her father's efforts and sacrifices, and resented people who shouldn't be resentful, but let go of the murderer who really hurt her father.

Luo Qing raised her head and looked at Zhao Xi's worried eyes, and said, "Lord Wang, please rest assured, even if Qing'er is no longer sensible, she knows that the real murderer who hurt her father is not the crown prince, nor the crown princess and Chu Shizi, but the villain who hides behind and hurts people with secret arrows; Father believes in Chu Shizi's character, so he wants to try his best to save him, this is his father's hope, as his child, how can I not understand and understand? ”

"Looking at my father lying on the bed, I feel distressed and sad as a child, but I am sincerely proud to have such a father who understands the general situation and understands the righteousness; Father must be very powerful, that's why he is so jealous, lord, Qing'er is here to ask you for something, is it okay? ”

Looking at Luo Qing's bright eyes, Zhao Xi hugged her a little tighter in distress, and said, "No one asks anyone between you and me, if you have anything to say, you can tell this king, this king will definitely do it for you." ”

Luo Qing nodded lightly and said, "Now that my father has become like this, I don't know when I will be able to turn the corner, but I have never been a truly kind person, and I will never forgive if I dare to hurt my relatives; But it's a pity that I'm just a weak woman, and I can't go out and show up to find the real murderer; Lord, can you help Qing'er find out the murderer who hurt my father and avenge my father? ”
