The day after the three Holy Decrees were issued, everyone from the Imperial Court to the common folk was filled with complex emotions upon learning the Sovereign was abdicating to the Crown Prince.
However, aside from the countless commoners submitting petitions for Qin Siyao to stay, not a single person in the Imperial Court advised her against it.
Because these ministers knew that Her Majesty had transformed the Qin Kingdom's national fortune into three Holy Decrees. These decrees were linked to the Great Dao, and there was no way to retract them.
Seven days later, a grand ceremony was held in the Qin Kingdom Royal Palace. Qin Siyao went through the official rites and handed the throne to Qin Lan'er.
On the morning after the ceremony, Qin Siyao changed into a simple long dress and quietly departed from the Qin Kingdom Royal Palace.
After walking out of the Imperial City, Qin Siyao turned to look back at the gates.
She didn't know when she would return.
