"Why are you quiet?" Lóng Wei asked Li Hua when they both came out of the Greeting Hall. "Aren't you happy about going to Xinshui? The place where everything started." He carried an amusing expression on his face and continued to smile.
Li Hua looked around and found the servants were still two feet behind them.
"Your Highness, how can I be happy? I lost everything in that town. We must start from the palace. Nothing has left in Xinshui." She kept her voice as low as possible.
"Li Hua, we will not find an answer here," Lóng Wei's tone turned into a serious one. "Also, the Royal Father can never ask to assassinate the Xu Family. Your father was one of the reputed ministers in the Kingdom," Lóng Wei affirmed and wrapped his arm around Li Hua's shoulder.
She stiffened at her place when Lóng Wei leaned close to her.
