Chapter 514: Medical skills cannot save everyone
Xu Li nodded, loosened his arms around her, and watched Qiu He and the others carry Princess Ling'an out.
He turned to look at Xia Wanniang: "If she hadn't done it, would you have killed her?"
This was the question he had always wanted to ask.
Xia Wanniang shook her head: "Xu Li, to me you are my friend, I hope you can be happy, as long as you feel happy, I will not destroy it."
Xu Li nodded heavily. He understood that if Ling An had not had the murderous intention, she could have lived happily.
Xia Wanniang: "Take a good rest recently. Qingfeng and the others will help you with your official duties."
Xiao Chiye walked in from outside and helped Xu Li up: "I'll go back with you to change clothes. We still have to report the death."
Xu Li didn't say anything. Like a puppet, he was supported by Xiao Chiye and went to the house next door.
Xia Wanniang went to find Qiu He. There was no more blood on Princess Ling'an's chest. After the dagger was pulled out, only a hideous wound was left.
She found a needle and thread, carefully sewed up her wound, and painted beautiful flowers on the wound with paint: "In the next life, don't be born into a royal family. It's too tiring."
Qiu He washed her body, changed her into the clothes Xia Wanniang had brought out, and tidied up her appearance.
Xia Wanniang was putting makeup on her face: "Ling'an, I actually hope you don't have such a strong obsession, so that I can teach you how to put on makeup, study spices with you, we can open a shop together, and I can take you to work in the fields..."
Qiu He listened to her mumbling and her eyes became red.
Xia Wanniang finally painted her lips with a very beautiful red color, making her look like she was asleep: "She is really beautiful."
Chai Song was already waiting at the door, and a fine coffin had been placed in the yard.
Xia Wanniang tidied up her appearance and said, "Okay."
Chai Song and his companions came in, carefully lifted Princess Ling'an, and put her into the coffin.
Xia Wanniang put a jade bracelet on her hand and said, "I forgot to tell you, this is made from the stone you bought yesterday. I wanted to give it to you today."
Qiu He walked over to her and supported her: "Madam, are you okay?"
Xia Wanniang patted her hands and said, "Send it over."
Chai Song and his companions carried the coffin to the next yard.
There was supposed to be a buffet banquet today, but when everyone saw the coffin brought into Xu's house, they were at a loss as to what to do, and only found out later.
Princess Ling'an died suddenly of a serious illness. The red silk and lanterns originally hanging in the palace were replaced with white, and the wedding banquet turned into a funeral banquet.
Everyone was caught off guard by this sudden change, but no one asked any further questions.
They changed out of their colorful clothes and wore plain clothes to mourn.
Even the common people who came to the buffet changed into plain clothes and went into the palace to burn a stick of incense for Princess Ling'an.
Xia Wanniang did not go over, but sat in the yard watching Wandong and the others clean the room.
She leaned back in her chair and looked up at the gloomy sky. A snowflake fell on her forehead, making her feel cold.
Several children had gone out to play today, but when they heard the news of Princess Ling'an's death, they all ran back in disbelief.
When they passed by Xu's house, they saw that the festive red had turned into white. There were too many people and it was difficult for them to go in, so they could only run back home.
But when they came in, they saw Xia Wanniang lying in the yard, surrounded by a sad atmosphere.
They didn't say anything, nor did they ask what was wrong with Princess Ling'an. Instead, they walked over to her and sat down quietly.
Xia Wanniang saw the children coming back and asked: "Why don't you say anything after coming back?"
Xiao Zimu didn't say anything, but his handsome eyes were full of worry.
Xiao Zilin hesitated for a moment and said, "Mom, are you sad?"
Xiao Zisen also looked worried.
Xia Wanniang didn't know if being pregnant made her more sentimental. It was a little unlike herself. "I'm just a little sad that I couldn't save her."
Mo Zi: "Madam, even with your great medical skills, you can't save her?"
Xia Wanniang smiled faintly: "Xiao Zi, medical skills sometimes can't save everyone."
