He Jing knew that her savior had arrived!
We can't count on the Empress Dowager's side.
Now we can only hope that our father will save our lives.
There is ample time.
As long as I can save my life now.
There will surely be another day when I can get rid of Consort Jin and that noisy little princess.
Ye Ling walked over with a frown on her face.
Everyone immediately bowed in greeting.
"May Your Majesty be blessed."
"Long live the Emperor! Long live the Emperor! Long live the Emperor!"
"Father, help! Consort Xu is trying to kill me!"
Ye Ling already knew what had happened.
He knew it very well.
Recently, Hejing has caused the Empress Dowager great worry, and she hasn't had a good night's sleep.
As a princess, she was supposed to stay by the Empress Dowager's side every day, allowing the Empress Dowager to enjoy the happiness of family life.
Yet he did so many things that angered and saddened the Empress Dowager.
Now, Consort Xu wants to kill her.
Ye Ling was not surprised.
However, Hejing was, after all, his daughter.
I really want to kill her.
Ye Ling could never sever this family bond in her heart.
unless.
He Jing has committed an unforgivable mistake.
“Hejing, you should be grateful for the Empress Dowager’s kindness, but you have failed to live up to her expectations. If I forgive you, what will happen if you make another mistake?”
"Father, I am willing to sign this pledge. This time, I will definitely reflect on my mistakes in Linglong Palace! If I make another mistake, I will commit suicide and will never go back on my word!"
Consort Xu knew that today, Hejing's life would not be taken.
But He Jing's treacherous heart will not die.
Instead of waiting for this opportunity, we should make her sign a death pact.
Later, it was used as evidence that she had dug her own grave.
Consort Xu went along with it and said.
"In that case, He Jing will sign a life-or-death agreement to prove your sincerity."
He Jing immediately spoke.
"Okay, I'm willing!"
After the paper and pen were brought up.
He Jing said.
"If I make another mistake, may I be struck by lightning and die a horrible death."
Consort Xu gave a cold laugh.
"Who can predict matters of life and death? He Jing made a life-or-death pledge based on such an ethereal matter. Who can believe that it is sincere?"
He Jing gritted her teeth inwardly, seething with resentment.
Consort Xu, you know how to force me!
He Jing gritted her teeth.
"If I make another mistake, I will be at the mercy of Consort Xu, and will be executed on the spot!"
Consort Xu glanced at her.
"Then let's do it that way!"
After He Jing wrote down the death certificate.
Consort Xu said calmly.
"A life-or-death contract is a life-or-death contract. How can it be called a life-or-death contract without a handprint? I was prepared in a hurry and did not bring inkpad. He Jing, you will have to figure out how to put your handprint on it yourself."
The implication was that He Jing should bite her finger and press the blood mark onto it.
He Jing has been quiet since childhood.
Let alone bloodshed.
I've never even had a scratch.
She's afraid of pain.
He Jing glanced at Ye Ling.
She hoped Ye Ling could help her out of this predicament once again.
Ye Ling did not continue to protect him.
"He Jing, bite your finger and press your fingerprint on it yourself."
He Jing's inner thoughts: *sobs*
But it didn't work.
Even if she transforms into a whiny, innocent-looking woman, Ye Ling still doesn't want to speak up for her anymore.
[Oh dear, you managed to escape death today, which is the last time your mother's spirit in heaven has protected you. Yet you wouldn't even bite your finger to make your handprint. Clearly, this life-or-death agreement you signed wasn't sincere!]
[Is she thinking that if she doesn't leave her fingerprints later, she can deny everything? The eldest princess's cunning is something the little princess should really learn from!]
[Perhaps I should follow the Princess's lead and learn from her? Even if I commit a terrible mistake, as long as I feign pitifulness convincingly, I'll be forgiven!]
Upon hearing this, Ye Ling...
Get anxious immediately!
He already has a daughter who causes him a lot of headaches.
Please, please don't let another one happen!
Otherwise, the harem would never be at peace.
The Empress Dowager originally thought that the little princess would have a personality completely opposite to Hejing's after she was born.
In this way, she can enjoy her old age in peace.
Ye Ling immediately said sternly.
"He Jing, the death pact you just signed is null and void! Now bite your finger and use your blood to write this death pact in blood!"
He Jing was stunned when she heard that!
Father, you're even more ruthless than Consort Xu!
Consort Xu only asked me to bite my finger and press my fingerprint on it.
You actually invalidated the waiver of life and death!
Let it be written in blood!
Are you really here to save me?!
Consort Xu smiled slightly.
She really hadn't thought of that move.
In the end, the emperor was still more ruthless.
Consort Xu glanced at the palace maid.
The palace maid immediately put away the death certificate.
He Jing looked at the brand-new paper in front of her, feeling utterly devastated!
Consort Xu noticed that she was hesitant to speak.
He said it on purpose.
"It seems that He Jing is unwilling to write it. This shows that the life-or-death agreement was not signed with sincerity!"
He Jing didn't want to hear any more words that could incite conflict.
He immediately bit his finger until it bled.
"ah!"
A piercing pain came over me.
He Jing screamed.
Ye Ling looked at her coldly.
He Jing raised her index finger and began to write in blood on the paper.
After writing a few words.
The bleeding has stopped.
He Jing looked at Ye Ling with an innocent expression.
"Father, there is no more blood."
"You still have nine fingers, right? Just bite your other fingers and you'll have them!"
He Jing:......
Father, you are truly heartless!
You've changed. You're no longer the loving father you once were!
