Lin Qingya pondered for a moment, then slowly spoke: "Since you have admitted your mistake, you are a reasonable person. However, in order to ensure that you will not do something similar again, I need you to do one thing for me." Zhao Sisi raised her head, with a glimmer of hope in her eyes, "You said, as long as I can do it, I will do my best." Lin Qingya smiled slightly, "You need to personally apologize to the Crown Prince and admit your mistake." Although Zhao Sisi was afraid, in order to save his own life, he could only bite the bullet and agree.
Zhao Sisi came to the Prince's Palace trembling with fear, and the guards stopped her.
"I want to see the Crown Prince. I have something important to report to you." Zhao Sisi took a deep breath and tried to look calmer.
The guard looked at her expressionlessly, "Your Highness, can you see me whenever you want? Wait until tomorrow morning to discuss your matter."
Zhao Sisi was extremely anxious. "This matter is of great importance. We must tell Your Majesty now. Please be flexible, brother."
The guard hesitated for a moment, but finally went in to report.
After a while, the guard came out and said, "The prince has agreed to see you."
Zhao Sisi walked into the palace and knelt down to salute, "I pay my respects to the Crown Prince."
Zhao Sisi lowered her head and said in a trembling voice: "Prince, what I did before was all coerced. I hope you will forgive me." The prince sat on the throne and looked at her coldly, "Coerced? I don't believe your words. If everyone is like you, shirking responsibility after making mistakes, then the court will become Joke." Zhao Sisi kowtowed repeatedly, "Your Highness, I really know I was wrong, please give me a chance." The prince was silent for a moment, then slowly said, "Forget it, considering your sincere attitude, I will forgive you this time. But if you do it again in the future, I will definitely forgive you." Zhao Sisi was secretly happy, thanked the prince and left in a hurry. However, she did not notice the doubt that flashed in the prince's eyes...
After Zhao Sisi left the Prince's Palace, she always felt like a pair of eyes were staring at her from behind.
She quickened her pace, secretly glad that she had escaped. However, she knew that a bigger conspiracy was waiting for her.
After returning home, Zhao Sisi lay exhausted on the bed, thinking about her future life. She decided to keep a low profile and not cause any more trouble.
However, the next morning, she was awakened by a knock on the door. When she opened the door, she saw a group of officials standing at the door, led by a man holding an imperial edict.
"Zhao Sisi, accept the order!" the man shouted loudly.
Zhao Sisi was shocked and knelt down in a hurry. The official read out the imperial edict, which accused her of colluding with foreign enemies and attempting to murder the prince.
Zhao Sisi was stunned. She had no idea what was going on. She tried to explain, but the officers didn't listen and took her away and put her in jail.
"Your Highness, the mistakes I made are indeed forgivable. But I am willing to serve you with my body to atone for my sins." Zhao Sisi said earnestly. The prince raised his eyebrows slightly, as if considering, "Okay, since you are so sincere, I will give you a chance. You go to the border and help the garrison generals. If you can make military achievements, I will spare your life." Zhao Sisi was delighted when she heard this and thanked him quickly. From then on, she stepped onto the battlefield and began her legendary career.
After Zhao Sisi came to the frontier, she worked hard to learn the art of war and tactics, and soon won the appreciation of the defending general. In a battle, she offered strategies and successfully repelled the enemy's attack, making great military exploits.
When the prince learned about it, he was very pleased and pardoned Zhao Sisi's crime and gave her a generous reward. However, Zhao Sisi refused the reward and chose to return to her hometown to live a quiet life.
Many years later, the prince ascended the throne and became the emperor. He recalled the past and remembered Zhao Sisi, so he sent people to find her whereabouts. In the end, the two met again, the emperor bestowed the highest honor on her, and Zhao Sisi also became a legend.
