I turned around and looked at the gentle prince in front of me, but I was madly complaining in my heart: Brother, didn’t you see the murderous look in your brother’s eyes? How dare you get close to me? Aren’t you afraid that he will kill you as a love rival?

Li Rui seemed not to notice the warning in my eyes, and continued to smile gently: "Sister Qingya, today's incident was caused by my brother misunderstanding you, don't take it to heart."

I smiled with my lips curled up: "Your Highness, you are joking. How dare I take it to heart?"

"It's good that you understand." Li Rui said, and suddenly approached me and said in a low voice, "Sister Qingya, I know you are different from other women. You have your own ideas and are very capable. "

My heart was filled with alarm. Could it be that the prince was trying to win me over? I didn't want to get involved in the royal family's struggle!

"Your Highness, you are too kind. I am just an ordinary woman. How can I have any ideas or abilities?" I said with false humility, but I was complaining madly in my heart: I am a time-travelling woman who can read minds. How can you ancient people compare to me?

Li Rui looked at me deeply, as if trying to see something from my face, but in the end he said nothing, just smiled meaningfully: "Sister Qingya, you are very interesting."

After saying that, he turned and left. I looked at his back, my heart full of doubts, what on earth did this prince want to do?

After returning home, I immediately told my father what happened today. After listening to me, my father frowned and thought for a moment before speaking: "Qingya, you must be careful in the future. This palace is not a good place. If you are not careful, you will be doomed!"

I curled my lips and said indifferently, "Dad, don't worry, I know what's going on."

"You are just too smart and too courageous!" The old man shook his head helplessly, "Do you know that what you said in the court today violated taboos! If it were someone else, he would have been dragged out and beheaded long ago!"

"Then it didn't work?" I chuckled, "Who told me I was your precious daughter?"

My dad was so angry that he laughed: "You, really are..."

I know my father is worried about me, but I am not afraid in my heart. I just don't believe that with my intelligence and wisdom, I can't make it in ancient times?

I stayed at home for the next few days and didn't go anywhere, partly to avoid the limelight and partly to take the opportunity to think carefully about what to do next.

I have clearly sensed Li Heng's jealousy of me. If I continue to be so high-profile, it will sooner or later arouse his suspicion and dissatisfaction. By then, let alone making money, it is hard to say whether I can save my life.

No, I have to find a way to protect myself and continue to make money!

I pondered for several days and finally came up with a brilliant idea!

"Someone, prepare the sedan chair. I want to enter the palace!"

…

In the Imperial Garden, the flowers are in full bloom and the fragrance is overwhelming. I am wearing a light blue dress and walking among the flowers. I look relaxed and at ease, but I am actually very nervous.

Because I am here today to "apologize".

I know that Li Heng hates people challenging his authority the most, and what I did in the court before was undoubtedly challenging his bottom line. Therefore, I must find a way to calm his anger and make him believe that I have no ill intentions.

"Your humble servant Lin Qingya pays respect to His Majesty."

From a distance, I saw Li Heng sitting in the pavilion, holding a book in his hand, and I didn't know what he was reading. I hurried forward to greet him with an extremely respectful attitude.

Li Heng slowly raised his head, his eyes fell on me, and a complex look flashed in his eyes.

"Get up." There was no emotion in his voice.

"Thank you, Your Majesty."

I stood up and secretly looked at Li Heng. He was wearing a bright yellow dragon robe and a golden crown. He looked majestic without even getting angry, and his whole body exuded the majesty of an emperor.

"Do you know why I summoned you here today?" Li Heng put down the book in his hand and asked in a calm tone.

"I know I am guilty." I immediately knelt down and said with my head bowed, "I was very offensive in my words in the court before. I hope Your Majesty will forgive me."

Li Heng remained silent, just staring at me, with a cold light flashing in his eyes.

My heart sank suddenly, and a sense of foreboding came over me.

Could it be that I guessed wrong?

Li Heng, he has no intention of letting me go?
