Use a substitute on your wedding night to scatter the ashes of your entire family

There was no one left who could protect the emperor's kingdom, and the He family was of no use at all. Naturally, the emperor could humiliate them however he wanted.

Madam He wiped away her tears and said, "Don't even tell the eldest lady about this. It's hard enough for her to support the Duke of Huguo's Mansion, and the other ladies must not know about it. When the funeral is over, you can send them the divorce letter I wrote on behalf of my sons."

"Old lady..."

The master and servant hugged each other and cried bitterly. Ling was too much, too much.

The tenth day of the first lunar month is the day for the funeral of ten young men from the Duke of Huguo's mansion.

The whole city was dressed in white. All the civil and military officials had arrived. The Minister of Rites Song Changyu and other officials from the Ministry of Rites were present. His Royal Highness Prince Heng was also there. The imperial guards carried the coffin, and the people of the city sent the coffin off.

The wailing sounds echoed throughout the upper city of Shengjing.

The people were all deeply moved and praised the emperor for his benevolence and kindness towards the widows of military generals, saying he was a wise ruler of all ages.

Who knows, it's rotten inside.

Li Shuangwan wore plain clothes and came to burn incense to the old general, the Duke of Protectorate, and a group of He family men.

Ling Heng hid behind the officials and watched her coldly as she walked forward to talk to the ladies.

"Old Madam, First Madam, and all the ladies, please accept my condolences."

Several ladies returned the greetings to Li Shuangwan.

Li Shuangwan saw that although the ladies looked haggard, they were still in good spirits. Yang Luo really took very good care of their health.

After sending the coffins of the Duke of Huguo and his ten other sons for burial, Li Shuangwan returned to Prince Heng's Palace.

Early the next morning, Li Shuangwan was still dressed in plain clothes, and entered the Duke of Huguo's Mansion through the back door with Yizhu alone. She was thinking that there were some things that she needed to talk to Madam He about.

In the flower hall, there were several pieces of paper beside Mrs. He. The five wives of the He family covered their faces and cried, kneeling in front of her.

At this time, the old official came: "Madam, Princess Heng is here."

Madam He hurriedly said, "Please come in."

Then he said to the five ladies kneeling on the ground, "Get up and go back and think carefully. I am not forcing you to leave now, but the He Mansion is in such a state now, I can't harm you."

None of the five people were willing to stand up.

The old maid wiped her tears and went to support them: "Madam, you are still young. It is not easy to be a widow."

They all knelt on the ground stubbornly and refused to get up.

This was the scene Li Shuangwan saw as he entered the flower hall.

She asked hurriedly: "Madam, what happened?"

When they saw her, they turned around and kowtowed to her: "Princess Heng, we don't want to leave. Please ask Princess Heng to speak for us and our mother."

When Li Shuangwan saw the papers on the table, with the words "Divorce Letter" so eye-catching, it was clear to her.

He turned around and told Yizhu to invite Yang Luo over.

"The old lady is doing this for your own good. You are still young and you can't keep wasting your time like this." This world is so unfair to women. Without men, a woman's life would be extremely painful.

Madam Zhuang knelt down a few steps, holding onto Li Shuangwan's legs, her face covered in tears. She had lost a lot of weight in the past two months. "Princess Heng, I have been married to the He family for twenty years. Although Dalang and I have been together for a long time, we have always been in harmony. Now he has died tragically, and my two sons have also died on the battlefield. How can I leave?"

"I have to guard this home for Dalang and my two sons, so that when their souls return to their hometown, they can take a look at his wife, their mother."

"Princess Heng, please help us talk to our mother. We don't want to leave."

"Yes, I don't want to leave either. Since I'm married to the He family, I'm a member of the He family in life and a ghost of the He family in death."

"Although Silang and I only had one daughter, he respected and loved me and never thought of taking a concubine or having a child. Now that he is gone, how can I be such an ungrateful, disloyal and unfilial person?"

The fourth lady hugged her daughter tightly and said, "Besides, I still have Yan'er. I can't let her lose her mother right after losing her father."

Li Shuangwan's eyes also turned red, and he slowly looked at the young woman kneeling on the ground.

The young woman with her hair in a bun raised her head and looked at Li Shuangwan, then at Madam He: "Princess Heng, Mother, unless I die, I, Yang Yue, will never leave."

Madam He's lips trembled as she stepped forward and hugged her in her arms: "It is our He family who has let you down. You and Wu Lang just got married, and before you even had your wedding night, Wu Lang went to the battlefield. You are still a virgin, and everyone in Shengjing knows that. You can leave with the divorce letter, and there will be a good man willing to marry you."

Yang Yue let Madam He hold her in her arms, tears streaming down her face. "Mother, are you going to force me to die? I've seen the best of the world, how can anything else catch my eye? Mother, Wu Lang is gone, but we are still here, and the He family is still here. My four sisters-in-law and I will definitely be able to support the He family and raise the Sixth Young Master to adulthood."

Li Shuangwan's gaze slowly swept across the tearful faces. She knew that all the women in the He family were loyal and righteous.

In the previous life, the entire family of General He was thrown into prison, but none of them left and they all died bravely.

What's more, in this life, they are no longer sinners.

"Madam, Li Shuangwan is here to ask you for a favor on behalf of the other ladies. Please let them stay."

Madam He trembled and stood up slowly: "I am afraid that they will be wronged and hurt. They are still so young and can find a good family to marry."

"Mother, we have never been wronged, nor have we ever been afraid, and we will never marry again."

Madam He personally helped them up one by one: "Okay, okay, all of you get up, all of you get up. From now on, as long as I have a bite to eat, I will never let you drink soup."

At this time, Yang Luo arrived with a medicine box.

When he saw Li Shuangwan, his eyes lit up: "Sister Wan, why are you here today?"

"I came to see the old lady."

Madam He smiled and wiped away her tears: "Princess Heng, I like this girl very much. It's all thanks to her. Her medical skills are really amazing. If it weren't for her, our family of women wouldn't have survived until now."

Yang Luo's eyes curved, "Old Madam, you are too kind. It is because you and your sisters-in-law are determined, and the spirits of the He family are blessing you. I didn't do anything. I just watched from the side."

"Lulu, quickly check the pulses of Madam He and the other ladies. They look too thin."

"No need. This girl checks our pulse every day." Zhuang forced a pale smile on her face.

Yang Luo understood what Li Shuangwan meant. Now that the He family's funeral was over, the pent-up energy would be easy to release. Once the energy was released, it would be easy for the evil wind to enter the body.

If not handled properly, it may even lead to other symptoms.

She took out the pulse pillow, walked to Madam He, and said with a smile: "Madam, Wanjie is destined to be a hard worker. She has to watch me take her pulse with her own eyes before she feels at ease."

Old Man He smiled and said, "Okay, okay, then show it to her."
