"Mother, I..."
Ito Mie interrupted her before she finished, "I just got the news. Your father seems to be unwilling to spare you this time."
"Mother, what does that mean?" Ito Keiko was anxious, her uninjured hand quickly grabbed Ito Mie's hand.
"Is Father planning to discipline me? Is he going to depose me as a princess?"
Shadows clouded Ito Mie's eyes as she replied, "Your father asked Yukiko to plead with Jian Qing. As long as Jian Qing does not cut off her cooperation with the royal family, he is willing to hand you over to Jian Qing to deal with."
"What?" Ito Keiko's pupils shrank, and her face lost all color.
Was her father really going to abandon her?
No, that's impossible.
She was her father's favorite daughter, how could he do this to her?
She grasped Ito Mie's hand tightly, "Mother, you were joking just now, right? Father loves me the most, how could he abandon me, you were just joking, right?"
Hiss.
