Chapter 127
Li Xunchuan frowned slightly, and smelled the aroma of wine when he got closer, and turned his head to find that the wine pot that was originally on his side had been moved to Zhuo Ran's hand.

"Why drink?" Li Yanchuan pinched her chin and said, "You are still taking medicine these few days."

Zhuo Ran curled her lips and smiled: "Look, I knew you would be angry."

"So you just go ahead and watch me get angry?" Li Yanchuan turned his head to look at it. Everyone was drinking and talking, and no one looked at the two of them. Li Yanchuan moved his hand to the back of Zhuo Ran's neck, Pulling him closer, he whispered, "...drunk?"

Zhuo Ran shook her head, trying her best to show that she was not drunk at all, but she looked tired, her eyes were covered with mist from the strong alcohol, and she was a little more tired and gentle, which made Li Yanchuan's mind flutter, and forced herself to Stay awake and return to reality.

Li Xunchuan wiped the water from her temples, stretched out his hand to push the wine glass away, Zhuo Ran put it on his arm, and groaned dissatisfiedly.

"I can't drink anymore." Li Yanchuan raised the jade pot with his long arm, and the scent of scented tea was filled with white mist. He held the warm teacup with three fingers, handed it to Zhuo Ran's lips, and said softly, "Open your mouth."

Zhuo Ran lowered his head, and sipped the hot tea with his hand. Li Yanchuan wanted to pour another cup, but someone grabbed his sleeve to stop him from moving.Li Xunchuan had no choice but to let someone lean on his shoulder to relax, and Zhuo Ran handed over all the weight to him. Li Xunchuan looked down and found that Zhuo Ran half closed his eyes, as if he was staring at something.

"What's the matter?" Li Xunchuan's chin rested on the top of Zhuo Ran's hair, and when he heard Li Xunchuan's voice, Zhuo Ran was in a daze for a while, and then he opened his lips and said, "The person who is toasting with Marquis Daxi is Han Cheng, right?"

Li Xunchuan looked up, nodded slightly, and said, "Yes."

"He looks honest and honest." Zhuo Ran thought for a while before saying, "I like the people here very much."

Li Xunchuan pinched her shoulders with his fingers, and said in a low voice: "I heard that the people here in Luzhou are simple and honest, I think it's worthy of the name, probably following Da Xiye."

Zhuo Ran whispered "Mmm" in a nasal voice, and said, "Because of this, it's so easy for him to win Da Xi Ye's trust..."

"Trustworthy?" Li Yanchuan was thinking, Zhuo Ran used the word just right.Da Xiye's trust is the confidence of the subordinates. Only with Da Xiye's complete trust can he have the trust of the people of Luzhou, and only then can he overcome obstacles and make everything go smoothly.Thinking about this Han Chengding, there is something special about him. Everyone can be honest and honest, but there must be something he doesn't know about being able to make Da Xiye trust him.

Li Yanchuan felt very problematic about this person.After finding an opportunity to explain his identity tomorrow, he must find out about this person, there is no guarantee that he will not be the second Wang Cheng.

Speaking of Wang Cheng, there was no news from Yi Dong. He thought he was safe for the time being. If Wang Cheng really kept himself safe, he could save a lot of things.

I'm afraid that things won't go according to his plan.

Zhuo Ran couldn't help coughing, Li Yanchuan looked down at her, patted her on the back lightly, and said, "If we don't want to stay here, let's go back to sleep, okay?"

"Aren't you here to spy on the military situation?" Zhuo Ran's forehead touched Li Yanchuan's neck, and the temperature of the touching skin seemed to be a little high. Li Yanchuan frowned slightly and rubbed Zhuo Ran's vest.

Ji Yuyan came back from outside the screen and saw Zhuo Ran buried her head in Li Yuchuan's shoulder, thought she was not feeling well, so she went forward and asked if she needed to ask the doctor to take a look.

Li Xunchuan shook his head and said, "She drank a few glasses of wine while I wasn't paying attention, and I took her back to rest."

"I'll send someone over to hangover soup." Ji Yuyan helped Zhuo Ran up, but seeing Li Xunchuan carefully picked up her leg, she withdrew her hand.

"Thank you, miss." Li Xunchuan nodded slightly, Zhuo Ran put his arms around Li Xunchuan's neck and buried his head, he looked down at Zhuo Ran, and said softly: "Miss, there is no need for someone to deliver the soup, she can't drink it like this .”

Ji Yuyan lifted Zhuo Ran's skirt and said, "Take good care of her."

Li Xunchuan didn't bother to reply, and went down the side door with Zhuo Ran in his arms.

Da Xiye turned his head and saw Ji Yuyan looking out the door. The two people who were supposed to be sitting at the banquet had disappeared, so he stepped forward and pressed Ji Yuyan's back, and said, "Are they going back?"

Ji Yuyan turned around close to him, raised her head and nodded, and said, "Miss Li has drunk some wine, she looks drunk."

"Oh..." Da Xiye nodded dumbly.

"Actually, it looks like..." Ji Yuyan stretched out her arms to hug him, and said, "That ruffian knows how to love others, I was moved by his anxious appearance."

Da Xiye blinked and said, "...you are right."

Ji Yuyan tugged at the hem of his shirt and said, "If it's too late, we'll tell people to leave, it's already too late."

Da Xi Ye sighed and said, "Okay."

As the wind passed through the corridor, Li Xunchuan saw the person shivering in his arms, so he quickened his pace and went back to the room. When he put the person on the soft couch, Zhuo Ran gradually recovered his warmth.

Li Xunchuan took off his shoes for someone, and when he lowered his head to untie Zhuo Ran's waist belt, someone grabbed his fingertips.Li Xunchuan squatted and looked up at her, and said, "Hey, take off your clothes before going to bed."

Zhuo Ran understood the words, moved her hands away, and looked down at Li Yuchuan's movements.She had shaken Li Xunchuan's hand countless times, but this time she stared at it, her joints were clearly defined, and there were faintly protruding blue veins.Every time he said that he was thin, but in fact, besides looking strong, Li Yuchuan didn't have much flesh on his body.

Li Xunchuan reached out to her side to find the tied tail, Zhuo Ran lightly brushed it away, she touched the thick callus on Li Xunchuan's hand, pinched his fingertips for a long while without making a sound.

"What are you looking at?" Li Yuchuan felt a little itchy, and wanted to withdraw his hand, Zhuo Ran refused to give in, so he could only let her play with himself, took off his shoes and shirt and sat beside Zhuo Ran.

Li Xunchuan smiled and said: "When I was young, I couldn't hold a sword, so I was forced by my master to wrap my hands and feet in sandbags and run around the Xijie Grassland every day. Later, I was able to carry a sword. It was just too hard on my hands."

"Does it hurt?" Zhuo Ran clasped his fingers together and looked up at him.

Li Xunchuan thought that Zhuo Ran was extremely cute, so he tilted his head and put his forehead against her, and said, "It's been a long time since the pain has stopped."

That unbelievable temperature reminded Li Yanchuan that he didn't dare to chat with Zhuo Ran anymore, he just stretched out his finger and stroked the back of her neck, and said softly: "Okay Xiaqiu, go to bed early today, I'll touch you A little hot."

Zhuo Ran shook his head, Li Xunchuan held her face, seeing the reddish color has unconsciously climbed to the end of the eyes, highlighting a more beautiful color, he couldn't help but feel ecstatic in his heart, his wife is really beautiful.

"Ah..." Zhuo Ran trembled her eyelashes.

Li Xunchuan smiled lightly: "...Huh?"

Zhuo Ran touched Li Yanchuan's wrist, raised her eyes to meet his smiling eyes, and said, "Can you kiss me?"

Li Xunchuan kissed her between the eyebrows, Zhuo Ran shook his head, Li Xunchuan stayed on her lips for a long time, and when Zhuo Ran put his hand on the back of Li Xunchuan's neck, he stopped.

"Sleep okay?" Li Yanchuan comforted Zhuo Ran, and said softly, "I'll coax you."

Zhuo Ran whispered a word in his ear.

Li Xunchuan refused without thinking.

He thought it was a joke, because he didn't know what Zhuo Ran was thinking. Children don't always understand what it means to have a taste, but only know what it means to be out of control.He has enough self-control, he can easily control his heart, and at the same time he can arouse Zhuo Ran.

But Zhuo Ran is different.She was still young, and everything she knew was taught to her by Li Yuchuan. Before that, he completely believed that Zhuo Ran was just a piece of white rice paper, and Han Congzhong and Zhou Yu also raised her as a daughter. It's not important at all, it's not necessary, it's a dispensable thing.

Speaking of it, Zhuo Ran has no reason to be obsessed with this matter.

Li Xunchuan felt a little funny, reached out his hand to touch Zhuo Ran's cheek, and said, "Your health is not good yet, you can't."

Zhuo Ran shook her head vigorously, she couldn't explain it, and once she explained it, she would lose all her previous composure.She can calmly face illness, life and death, because she knows that there is Li Xunchuan.However, this person is full of the grassland of Beili, but puts her in the paradise in his heart. If one day this paradise no longer exists, what will happen to the faith that lives on it.

She didn't underestimate Li Yanchuan's feelings for her, nor did she overestimate her position in Li Yanchuan's heart. Such a person would always think about herself, thinking about herself, for fear that he would hurt her, but from the very beginning, it seemed that she was doomed this ending.

But she doesn't regret it.She didn't foresee this time, because she never wanted to live, but now when she wanted to live, she had to make a painful decision.

"But..." Zhuo Ran's eyes were extremely red, but the color of her lips bitten by her white teeth gradually lost its color. She held back her voice so that she didn't choke: "Time is running out..."

Li Xunchuan frowned slightly, and said, "Why is time running out?"

Zhuo Ran burst into tears mixed with a heart-wrenching smile, Li Yuchuan panicked immediately, he had no time to wipe away Zhuo Ran's tears, he could only stretch out his arms to hug her, feeling her body trembling, there was nothing else he could do except hug her tightly of.

"What's the matter Xiaqiu?" Li Yuchuan noticed that she had become confused due to suppressing the crying, so he could only pat her on the back and said softly: "Don't cry, just tell me if you have anything..."

Zhuo Ran clenched the clothes on Li Xunchuan's back, turned his head and panted heavily, Li Xunchuan wanted to let go of her to let Zhuo Ran relax for a while, but felt that as soon as he let go, Zhuo Ran exerted a little more force, and caught him behind Back hurts.

"Be obedient Xiaqiu," Li Xunchuan said with some anxiety in his voice, "let go first, or you won't be able to breathe again in a while."

Zhuo Ran knocked her chin on Li Xunchuan's shoulder, and closed her eyes tiredly. It took her a long time to recover her normal breathing, but tears rolled down the corners of her eyes and wet Li Xunchuan's neckline.

"Do you know..." Zhuo Ran was a little powerless, and said: "...I am very scared and guilty. You have found someone like me, and you have to check whether I am still alive and whether I can still respond to you. If so, my heart aches, but there is nothing I can do..."

Li Xunchuan's pupils shrank suddenly.

She thought Zhuo Ran was asleep and didn't know.Ever since he found Zhuo Ran and brought her by his side, he couldn't sleep well every night, and would wake up in the middle of the night to check Zhuo Ran's breath. Only when he felt that Zhuo Ran's breathing was steady did he feel at ease.

He didn't know that it was Zhuo Ran's breath trying to slow down after overlapping nightmares.

"You are so kind to me... What will you do if I die? You will be angry and sad, but I can no longer make you laugh, I can no longer kiss you, I..."

As soon as Zhuo Ran opened her eyes, she seemed to have seen that day, and Li Yunchuan was still holding her like now, but the tears had already dried up.

Li Xunchuan bit his lip and swallowed back his tears. He couldn't cry at this time. He didn't understand why Zhuo Ran would break down like this, but he knew in his heart that Zhuo Ran must have something to hide from him.

"Xiaqiu..." Li Yanchuan wanted to see Zhuo Ran's face, so he let go of his hand on the back of Zhuo Ran's neck, and lightly grabbed Zhuo Ran's shoulder, forcing Zhuo Ran to look at him.

"Look up at me, Xiaqiu." Li Yanchuan's fingertips were wet with warmth, Zhuo Ran looked at Li Yanchuan, vaguely.

Zhuo Ran said softly: "...Ah, I regret it."

Li Xunchuan shook his head, and said seriously: "Xiaqiu, listen to me, I am very worried about you, but I will not leave you for any reason, you belong to me alone, this life is only mine, you have you understood?"

"Don't regret it... I don't regret coming to Gaodu, I don't regret meeting you, and what I don't regret is falling in love with you." Li Yanchuan smiled slightly and said, "Your health will definitely get better, let's find Doctor in Nanjiang, when you are fully recovered, we will stay in Beili, or walk around, and I will take you shopping and eating. We still have a lot of time, and a long time to live..."

Li Xunchuan hugged Zhuo Ran tightly and said: "... If you like it, we will have many children. Xiaqiu can teach them to read and write, and I will teach them martial arts. We will live a happier life. You have to accompany me Every year I..."

"Will you promise me?"

Zhuo Ran nodded, and rubbed against the side of Li Yanchuan's neck, Li Yanchuan tilted his head and kissed Zhuo Ran's earlobe, and whispered in her ear, "I love you."

"Ah..." Zhuo Ran kissed his chin and said, "I love you."

Li Xunchuan smiled, kissed Zhuo Ran mixed with salty tears, pressed him into the mattress, stretched out his hand to pull the quilt, leaned over and kissed it again.

Li Xunchuan held on to his remaining rationality, and his movements were much gentler than before. Seeing the teardrops hanging from the corners of Zhuo Ran's eyes, he bowed his head and kissed them one by one.Zhuo Ran stuck out her fingertips, and Li Yanchuan pinched her wrist and put it next to the pillow.

"Ah..." Zhuo Ran raised her head and kissed him, saying, "I love you."

Li Xunchuan pressed down and said in a trembling voice, "I love you."

There are no other tempting words, just three simple words, to bring back everything broken by Zhuo Ran.When Li Xunchuan hugged Zhuo Ran tightly in his arms, the two said a few words indistinctly, but Li Xunchuan didn't hear clearly.

The most uncomfortable thing for him to blame himself is being used to Zhuo Ran.In the morning of the second day, Zhuo Ran felt hot, stuck to Li Xunchuan's shoulder and unable to get up.

"Did I say no?" Li Yuchuan wiped the sweat from her neck for her, frowning: "I can't let you do it like this."

Zhuo Ran felt cold all over, Li Yuchuan hugged someone and fed some water, and got up to go out after seeing her falling asleep.

Ji Yuyan and Da Xiye got up early, and they wanted to ask someone to bring food to their room, when they saw Li Xunchuan strode out.

Before Ji Yuyan opened her mouth, she saw someone leaning over and saluted, Da Xiye was slightly taken aback, and said, "This is..."

Li Xunchuan smiled helplessly, and said, "I have met Lord Hou, I am Li Xunchuan, the governor of the Imperial Army."

"What?" Da Xiye's eyes widened, and Ji Yuyan almost dropped the water glass in her hand to the ground.

There was no one around, Da Xiye frowned slightly and said, "You can't talk nonsense."

Li Xunchuan pulled out the badge from his waist, Da Xiye and Ji Yuyan stepped forward together, and it was clear when they saw the badge.The two didn't react much, they just returned a salute, very calm.

"Since that's the case, why did the governor come to my house?" Da Xiye signaled Li Yuchuan to sit down.

Li Xunchuan said: "To be honest, Gaodu and Luzhou had some financial problems in the Lianhua Lane incident. His Majesty ordered me to investigate secretly. Before that, I met a bandit from Luocheng who was pretending to be someone in Yidong. , According to General Peng, the Los Angeles bandits have come to the east, either in Yidong or Luzhou, so I can only come here to investigate."

Da Xiye looked at him carefully.

"Your Majesty, don't blame me." Li Yanchuan explained: "We have to do this out of necessity. My wife is not in good health, and was seriously injured by Li Chengru's pursuit. I'm afraid that there will be Li Chengru's rebellion in Luzhou, so I made this bad plan."

Ji Yuyan turned the water glass and said: "Li Chengru escaped from Gaodu and went to Luocheng. There will be no rebellious party in Luzhou. The governor said so, did he find anything?"

Li Xunchuan nodded, and said: "When we were investigating things in Yidong, those fake Los Angeles bandits came out to confuse the public. Although I don't know where they came from, I can't think of what else they want Sample."

Da Xiye sighed, and said, "It's just the governor, you came here to investigate Li Chengru, why do you want to involve Master Wang Cheng?"

"When I came here, I heard about the situation in Luzhou. There was a problem with the food and wages sent to Beili and the border." Li Yanchuan looked at Da Xiye, saw him lower his head slowly, and knew that this was indeed true. , "Master Hou also knows that I am from Beili, and I really have selfish intentions here. I not only want to find out Li Chengru, but also want to help Lord Hou resolve this matter."

Da Xiye turned his head to look at Li Yuchuan: "Have you met Wang Cheng?"

Li Xunchuan thought for a while and said, "No."

"Then why did you..."

"Lord Hou." Li Yanchuan said, "I know that you trust Lord Wang Cheng. He has been an official for many years, so naturally he would not do anything to betray you. I know what you want, so why did you waste so much time to hurt Lord Wang Cheng?" Come here to pretend again."

Da Xiye put his clenched hands on his knees.

Li Xunchuan smiled and said: "Master Hou and Miss are both temperamental people. You can treat people of unknown origin with sincerity, and you just listened to my self-report and accepted it. I don't believe that you two will be right because of this lie." We have a divide."

Ji Yuyan drank the water calmly and said, "I've heard that the governor is not good at speaking, but seeing him today, it turns out most of the rumors are not credible."

Li Xunchuan lowered his eyes and smiled, and said: "Because of the influence of my family, Miss laughed."

Da Xiye looked at Li Yuchuan and said, "Since the governor knows the ins and outs of these things, why not tell him what the governor thinks."
