His Rui

After having a talk with Li Chen, Li Qiang didn't go straight to his room to have rest.

It was already daytime and since he didn't have any habit of resting during this time, he felt weird to go back to his courtyard and rest.

And especially when he was not feeling sleepy at all.

After knowing whatever his daughters had done to Li Rui, Li Qiang couldn't find in himself to feel some peace for a few moments.

He knew that Li Rong must have been waiting for him in their courtyard and that's why he didn't wat to go there.

Did he blame her for spoiling their children with excessive love?

Yes, he did but he was not angry at this. It was not only Li Rong's fault but he was also at fault if their daughters turned into someone like this.

He was more angry remembering that his wife really went to Xi Manor. Not only did she ask Lord Xi to take their eldest daughter as a concubine in his Manor but she also seemed find it reasonable when a daughter from Li Manor was already married to that man.

What exactly came to her mind?

Li Qiang was very disappointed in his wife this time and he was afraid that he would say something harsh to her that would inflict some irreparable damage to their relationship.

So he decided to go back to his courtyard after calming down.

Putting aside all this, he also had to think clearly just how should he punish his daughters for their deeds.

Seeing Li Na's behavior and hatred for Li Rui, Li Qiang had already decided what he will do for her.

The proposal for Lu Jianye flashed inside his mind.

He would have never accepted his daughter to become a concubine no matter what kind of noble family it was, but perhaps according to his understanding Li Na could not be kept in Li Manor any longer.

She needs to learn the consequences of her actions.

Li Qiang defined his actions very clearly and hid his own selfishness and efforts to protect his daughters with his thoughts.

Inside his heart, he knew somewhere that his decision was just in favor of his daughter. So what if Li Na was becoming a concubine, he had seen the true love in Lu Jianye eyes for his daughter.

It was much better than what Xi Ying would have done to Li Na.

And now he was also going to Li Caihong's courtyard thinking that he will scold her something that he would really do.

However, he would also give her the ointment for her face that Li Rui had given him.

In the end, he could not be blamed also.

He was also a father and which father destructed his children with his own hand?

However, Li Qiang also didn't know Xi Ying completely.

He didn't know that it was now impossible for Li Na and Li Caihong to escape from the consequences of their actions.

When Li Qiang reached Li Caihong's courtyard, the maids told her that Li Caihong was still sleeping.

He sighed and then gave the ointment to the maid.

He especially asked the maid to tell Li Caihong to use the ointment on her scar once a day and also tell her that it was given by her elder sister, Li Rui.

He wanted Li Caihong to know how Li Rui still cared for her despite whatever she had done with her.

After leaving Li Caihong's courtyard, he decided to go to the common study room and read some books.

--------

The common study room was silent.

General Li Heng glanced at his nephew, Li Chen who had said to him that he wanted to talk to him but now had been standing silent for a long time.

He suddenly remembered the last time Li Chen was standing in front of him at the same place.

It was before he had left the Imperial City with his son.

At that time, Li Chen had come to him and said that he also wanted to go to the battlefield. However, he had refused him with just a sentence

'You are ready now.'

He remembered what Commander Xie had told him the last time he had met him about Li Chen and stood up from his chair to walk towards Li Chen.

Li Chen was so emerged in his thoughts that he only get to know about General Li's presence near him when General Li patted his shoulder.

General Li was about to say something when the door of the study room was knocked.

General Li looked towards the door and allowed whoever was inside to come in.

"Elder Brother doesn't need to knock before entering. How many times I have already said it before, Elder Brother?"

General Li grumbled like a child when he saw that the person asking for permission to enter was none other than his brother, Li Qiang.

Li Qiang smiled merely and his smile faltered a little when he saw his son standing in front of his brother.

"Li Chen…what are you doing here?"

Li Qiang didn't look at Li Chen for the answer instead he looked at General Li who answered casually.

"Why is Elder Brother so surprised to see Li Chen here? Can't I talk to my nephew alone?"

Li Qiang chuckled seeing the grumpiness of his brother and said

"You look too grumpy. Don't tell me that Yi Jie threatened you again."

General Li's face looked worse after the truth was revealed. He knew that his brother would start to tease him more so he answered his question immediately to divert his attention.

"Li Chen said that he wanted to talk to me about something."

Li Qiang's attention was indeed diverted as he wondered what exactly his son wanted to talk to Li Heng about.

"Oh…so what did he say?"

He asked curiously

However, General Li shook his head and said

"We were about to talk, Elder Brother when you entered. I was about to say something to Li Chen."

Li Qiang raised his eyebrows and said

"Then continue. Please don't mind my presence."

With that, Li Qiang walked forward and sat on one of the chairs inside the room.
