章 540: Did I ask your opinion?

Lei Wanxi wiped the face of Zhu Lin with a wet towel gently. He tucked the lock of her hair behind her ear. He, then, wiped her hands when the maidservant said she would help him.

"It's fine. I will do it," Lei Wanxi replied.

"Your Highness, the Second Prince is beheaded," the same maidservant informed him. Lei Wanxi stopped, and tears formed in his eyes. He stood up and turned to leave but saw Ying Lili entering the chamber.

"Brother Wanxi," She pronounced his name and came near him. "I have found a few potion recipes that will help Princess Zhu Lin's wounds to heal soon," Ying Lili told him and showed him the book. "Hu Jingguo wrote this."

"That is nice. Zhu Lin has not woken up yet. Does Sister Lili think that she would make it?" Lei Wanxi queried. "Brother Yongzheng is beheaded. Our family has fallen apart, Sister Lili," Lei Wanxi said while crying. "I wanted that, but even he was our brother," he said.
