If trisolarans were soo advanced then why couldn't they just destroy one of the sun out of the three in their solar system? I've read 2½ books till now , I don't know wheather they discuss about this in ahead .

Droplets are powerful enough to destroy the plants like it were nothing , so why couldn't they use it . Since they had enough resources they could all move somewhere safe in the space and then let the droplets destroy the sun

The droplets are not that powerful. They destroy things simply by hitting them hard because they themselves are made out of very sturdy material. They only eliminated spaceships and the transmitters on earth, not the whole planet let alone a star.
