316 The only way to stop


    “After Li Hua entered Lóng Wei’s life, he got this urge not to make any more mistakes. He doesn’t want to leave Li Hua alone. We must remove her from his life,” Tianjie said, giving the idea to Qiu Mu.


    Qiu Mu promptly nced at him and scoffed. “We should not fall this low that we have to harm his wife,” he asserted. He put the wine ss on the table and poured wine into it.


    “There is a famous saying, Brother Mu: In Love and War, everything is fine,” Tianjie stated. He wanted Qiu Mu to be on his side at all costs. The growing power of Lóng Wei wasn’t eptable to him, and if he had to harm Li Hua, then he would not hesitate to do that. However, he needed the support of Qiu Mu.


    “I don’t think that we should involve his wife in all this. I agree that Lóng Wei recently gathered a lot of strength, not physically but politically. However, I condemn the idea of harming his wife,” Qiu Mu rified. Tianjie curled his fingers, but he didn’t give up.


    “There is no other way in which we can stop Lóng Wei,” Tianjie muttered, and leaned back on the floor chair, holding the wine ss. “If Brother Mu has thought of another way, then he can tell me,” he added, and lifted his eyelids to gaze at him.


    “Lóng Wei doesn’t have any weaknesses. I bet that Li Hua isn’t his weakness either,” Qiu Mu opined.


    “Why don’t we check what will happen to Lóng Wei if Li Hua gets hurt?” Tianjie arched his brow in anticipation.


    “How?” Qiu Mu looked confused.


    “An attack on Li Hua in Lóng Wei’s absence. It will be a mild attack,” Tianjie stated, “only to check how Lóng Wei reacts. We will decide what to do next after finding out his reaction.”


    .....


    Qiu Mu told Tianjie that it was impossible tounch an attack on Li Hua, especially in the pce. “Father will punish General Hei and me for not being cautious,” Qiu Mu refuted his idea of attacking Li Hua.


    Tianjieughed, which perplexed Qiu Mu.


    “Brother Mu, we will attack Li Hua when she goes out of the pce. Her brother, Xu Zifan, is no longer in the pce. Li Hua will surely pay a visit to her brother,” Tianjie stated.


    Qiu Mu pointed out a doubt. “If that happens, then Lóng Wei will apany her,” he affirmed.


    “I will create a circumstance where Li Hua has to go tomorrow to meet Xu Zifan. Lóng Wei will go to the Governor’s office to work. Since he is newly appointed, he has to learn a lot of things. Brother Mu must hire a few men to attack Li Hua. I believe that he can do it easily since he is the General.” Tianjie found out that Qiu Mu was still hesitating to go forward with that n.


    “I cannot hire anyone,” Qiu Mu stated, and recalled how he trusted Chang Shi. He was shockedter to find out that Chang Shi knew Lóng Wei for a long time. He didn’t want to do anything that would bring doom to him. Lóng Wei was clever and cunning.


    “Why can’t Brother Mu hire anyone? I am not talking about killing Li Hua.” Tianjie tried his best to convince Qiu Mu, but he refused. He advised Tianjie not to n anything that would backfire on him.


    Tianjie didn’t like that Qiu Mu backed off from helping him. But he stayed quiet. After a while, he took his leave and went to his chamber. His feet slowed down, and he mmed his hand on the wooden pir beside him. He decided to hire someone on his own and execute the n.


    If after the attack on Li Hua, Lóng Wei got panicked, then Tianjie would make sure to kill Li Hua. That was the only way to stop Lóng Wei from spreading his wings. If he seeded in that, then removing Lóng Wei from his path would be much easier.

    Xiaoming told Liu Jin Yu that Lóng Wei decided to forgive Kang Huijuan. She was upset and wondered why Lóng Wei did that.


    “I wanted to expose the truth, but then I decided to go with Brother Lóng Wei’s decision. He must have reason to do so,” Xiaoming stated.


    “I will be patient, then. Someday, I will punish Kang Huijuan. I won’t stay quiet, Your Royal Highness,” Liu Jin Yu stated and clenched her fists.


    Xiaoming rested his hand over here and advised her not to think with a hot mind. To divert her attention from it, he asked her about the activities that she had done till now.


    “Li Hua taught me how to brew the tea,” Liu Jin Yu said. “Did the Crown Prince fall for Li Hua because of her nature?”


    Xiaoming was bewildered to hear her question. Why did she suddenly bring that topic out of nowhere?


    “Your Royal Highness, I am curious to know,” she stated with a smile. Xiaoming felt awkward even talking about it. “The Crown Prince can share with me. I don’t get jealous,” she stated.


    “She is a calm person. I think I liked her nature. But I would like to correct you. I realized that I didn’t love her. I liked a few things about her and ended up making the assumption that I would be happy with her. But I was wrong,” Xiaoming exined to her. His sudden attraction was not love, but infatuation.


    “I also found her calm. She doesn’t get angry. Lady Hu gets easily angry,” Liu Jin Yu stated. “Then, I learned how to walk like ady. Will the Crown Prince want to see it?” She asked in anticipation.


    Xiaoming nodded at her and Jin Yu quickly got up from her ce. She showed him her walk and he smiled. He liked her manly walk more. But others might not like it.


    “How did I walk?” Liu Jin Yu asked.


    “It was good,” Xiaoming answered.


    “Only good?” She mumbled.


    “You need to improve a little. You don’t need to show it on your face,” Xiaoming stated.


    “What do I not need to show on my face?” Liu Jin Yu got confused.


    “It is tough to exin,” Xiaoming stated. “You should ask Court Lady Hongter,” he affirmed. He told her that they should have dinner because he had to return timely at his manor.
