A small pavilion by the lake at Daoningshan Hot Spring Villa.

"Your Highness, can you really be safe if you don't participate in palace banquets and other gatherings, and even stay away from the palace most of the time?" Liu Yuefu said with some concern.

Liang Jiuan was silent for a moment, then he stared at Liu Yuefu's profile, "I don't know,...but, counterattack also requires ability and strength."

These words hit Liu Yuefu's heart directly, "Power?!"

Yes, when I mentioned divorce last time, was I really giving Li Jianzhang a chance?

Isn't it just my own wishful arrogance?

This peace is what I want. What does it have to do with Li Jianzhang?

Therefore, Li Jianzhang, who had no intention of divorce, used violence to intimidate himself when he faced the helpless self.

How can we guarantee that something like this won't happen again? Or something even more horrible?

What's more, after the Liu family fell into decline in the previous life, Li Jianzhang's true nature was revealed, and domestic violence against Liu Yuefu was commonplace.

When Liu Yuefu thought of this, her brows furrowed more and more.

"Yes, strength, whether it is personal strength or organizational strength, cannot be ignored. Only when you become strong, the opponent will weigh your own weight, and only when you find that you are no match for him, will he put away his claws." Liang Jiuan explained patiently.

He changed the subject and said, "If he is strong enough, it doesn't matter if he doesn't retract his claws."

It doesn’t matter if he doesn’t retract his claws and teeth. It doesn’t matter if he doesn’t retract his claws and teeth... These words kept spreading in Liu Yuefu’s mind.

Her eyes narrowed, and she thought secretly that only if she was strong enough could she fight against it.

Strengthen your own strength...

Liu Yuefu calmed herself down before slowly asking, "Your Highness, I want to learn martial arts. Can you recommend a master to me?"

"The Liu family has been a family of civil officials for generations, and they have never had any dealings with military generals." Liu Yuefu said helplessly.

Liang Jiuan glanced over, stunned for a moment, then spoke as if possessed by a ghost: "How about I teach you?"

Liu Yuefu opened her mouth slightly, "Ah? Your Highness wants to compete in martial arts?"

Somehow, Liu Yuefu suddenly felt a little flustered.

"Well, I learned from the hermit master Lu Lao, and I have been practicing for nearly ten years." Liang Jiuan felt a little uneasy, and did not dare to look at Liu Yuefu again. His voice became lower and lower, "If you don't mind..."

Unexpectedly, Liu Yuefu readily agreed, "If Your Highness doesn't mind my stupidity, then I'll be fine with it."

Liang Jiuan then looked at Liu Yuefu. He was a little dazed for a moment, and the only thing in his eyes was Liu Yuefu's bright smile after she said this.

Liang Jiuan nodded and said calmly, "Then it's settled."

Liu Yuefu nodded gently, "As for the location, why not just go to the Liu Family Grocery Store."

Yes, we have to avoid suspicion.

"Okay. Every morning, Liu's Grocery Store." Liang Jiu calmed down and replied calmly.

In fact, my heart was filled with joy and cheers.

"In that case, I'll trouble you from now on, Your Highness. Thank you." Liu Yuefu bowed with a slight smile.

"It's okay. I have to practice martial arts every day." Liang Jiuan was afraid that Liu Yuefu would feel bad, so he waved his hand and said.

Then Liang Jiuan's mouth curled up slightly, and he said calmly: "Then I'll go first. See you tomorrow."

"See you tomorrow." Liu Yuefu said with a smile.

Having solved another major problem, Liu Yuefu was in a good mood. She smiled all the way back to her own courtyard.

If he had achieved certain results in martial arts training, he would not be afraid of Li Jianzhang's use of violence.

The next morning, at Liu's grocery store.

When Liu Yuefu arrived, Liang Jiuan had already arrived and was practicing swordplay in the backyard of the Liu family grocery store.

He bent down, dodged sideways, and stabbed downward with fierce moves.

Liu Yuefu just watched quietly. Liang Jiuan's usually pale and tired face, due to the ups and downs of dancing, his pale cheeks took on a faint pink color, making him look a little more lively.

Liang Jiuan sensed someone coming, so he made a sword flower and put away his sword.

Liu Yuefu then said, "Your Highness, have you been here for a long time?"

Liang Jiuan stood upright, feeling the breeze, and smiled faintly: "No, I just came a while ago."

"Then, let's get started." Liang Jiuan said in a gentle voice.

Liu Yuefu nodded.

Liang Jiuan patiently explained to Liu Yuefu the introductory theory of the martial arts he had learned.

Then, Liang Jiuan demonstrated one move after another to Liu Yuefu.

Liu Yuefu practiced each move on Liang Jiuan.

Liang Jiuan would reach out from time to time to correct her imperfect movements.

Sometimes, no matter how Liu Yuefu did some movements, they were always wrong.

But in martial arts, a slight mistake can lead to a huge mistake.

Liang Jiuan will teach Liu Yuefu step by step how to pose and how to attack correctly.

The two were so close that they could hear each other's breathing and heartbeat. Liu Yuefu looked up at Liang Jiuan explaining the movements. His expression was focused, and his handsome face seemed to have a special charm because of this focus.

Liu Yuefu's heart couldn't help but skip a beat. Her face flushed, then quickly faded.

Liu Yuefu has not divorced yet, and Liang Jiuan is a high-ranking prince with a noble status and a famous handsome man in the capital.

Although she appears to be a frail and cold beauty to outsiders, she is still very popular.

However, Liang Jiuan has never been involved in any scandal, let alone any engagement.

As summer turned to winter, the two practiced martial arts together every morning.

Until one day in winter.

"I heard from Madam Wei that you want a divorce?" Liang Jiuan asked in a nonchalant manner.

"Yes." Liu Yuefu smiled. She was happy to think that she would soon leave the Li family.

"Then I'll teach you some self-defense grappling techniques, maybe they'll come in handy." Liang Jiuan said seriously.

"it is good."

Liang Jiuan taught every move.

Liu Yuefu studied seriously.

"I will be going to the battlefield in a few days. After we part, you must not slack off. This is a matter of saving your life at the critical moment." Liang Jiuan looked at Liu Yuefu and instructed seriously.

Liu Yuefu nodded, as a sign of agreement.

Immediately, Liu Yuefu looked at Liang Jiuan and said calmly: "Take care, Master, you must come back safely."

Liang Jiuan stood against the light and the wind, "Okay."

The wind was blowing, and it was beautiful for the two of them to just stand there facing the wind.

Time passes like an arrow.

Today, Liu Yuefu relied on what Liang Jiuan taught her to snatch the knife from Li Jianzhang.

Li Jianzhang kidnapped Liu Dalang on the pretext of hunting, but it would not last long.

It will only take about two or three days.

After all, kidnapping an imperial official is a serious crime.

He certainly wouldn't do it openly.

And when Liu Dalang came back, Liu Yuefu had Zhou Junsheng and his wife as witnesses, which was enough to prove that Li Jianye had committed the crime of forcibly abducting and raping a woman.

It is actually a small matter that Li Jianye owes a huge gambling debt.

At that time, why wouldn't Li Jianzhang divorce Liu Yuefu?

It’s just that Liu Yuefu had clearly sent a letter to the Liu family a long time ago, so why haven’t the Liu family members come yet?
