“Why? What else do you want me to do? What in the world do you want froive you anything you ask!” Princess Ling Meng was still kneeling on the ground in despair She had a vacant expression on her face However, she still clung to her last hope as she asked Jun Mo Xie
“Nothing you offer will make any difference; I don’t trust you,” Jun Mo Xie raised his head and looked up at the sky He let out a deep sigh He then spoke in a resolute manner, “Princess, I really wish to save him but you must be aware of our Jun Family’s situation …to say that it is precarious… would be an understatement And if I could cure conditions that even the three foremost doctors of the city weren’t able to What would it ht now… people can only suspect… and be suspicious of e to save Ye Gu Han’s life!

She hesitated for a moment Then, she eventually placed her left hand upon her chest She then spoke in a soft yet resolute tone, “The heavens above and the earth below — the Gods of this world and the successive generations of , hear-by swear…”
She paused for a moment, and her face suddenly twisted She then continued, “…If Jun Mo Xie is able to savevow that I’ll return to the Palace and spare no efforts to demand from my father… that I be married to Jun Mo Xie Weather a wife or a concubine… I’ll comply to his wishes; I’ll never co the most loyal wo all his secrets, and I will not divulge a single thing to anyone else If it seeed on this oath… may my whole fa herself shall be punished by being hacked into pieces Then being thunderstruck five times… none of my descendants shall be allowed to continue in this world!
