Lin Sisi lowered her gaze. "Emperor, it is my fault for taking a life, but this maid deserved to die!"
"Even if my maid deserved to die, it is not your place to take action!" Han Yuwen angrily retorted.
"The princess is right, but the princess has offended a noble daughter of our Great Cheng Dynasty. Should I make a move against you? Sisi doesn't have that status, but I'm giving you face by attacking your maid!"
Lin Sisi pointed her sword at Feng Qing's corpse." I am General Lin's legitimate daughter. This mere maid insulted the noble daughter in the Great Cheng Dynasty. There is nothing wrong with me killing her!" It's just that the blood splattered in the main hall and stained the emperor's eyes. I'm indeed guilty and hope that the emperor will punish me."
Lin Sisi knelt, seeking punishment. Her words were both tactful and defended the honor of the Great Cheng Dynasty. Han Yuwen could only swallow her frustration.
