After Defeat, the Empress’s Negotiating Chip Turns Out to Be Me

Chapter 10

10~ Plan~

"Oh my? Leaked?"

Mo: "..."

Standing in place with a face full of dark lines, she'd probably already guessed that the Empress had actually been awake just now, only deliberately locking her tighter after noticing her urgent need, just to watch her make a fool of herself.

Very well done, successfully making her leak in front of her.

She'd never suffered such humiliation in this life! Nor in her past life!

Really unable to endure the fury in her heart, she lost her rationality and fiercely swung a fist at the Empress.

After grabbing the little Princess's hand, she didn't immediately completely control her, but gave some room to struggle. Although for her it was still something she could control with a casual grab.

"Bastard!"

She really couldn't take it anymore! This Empress just wanted to toy with her!

Whatever her purpose, she had to beat her up!

Seemingly forgetting that her frail body simply couldn't support her doing too much exercise, the little Princess frantically swung her fists.

About a minute later, her body no longer had the stamina to support her continuing to swing her fists.

"Bastard! Hentai! Lolicon!"

The Empress's face filled with dark lines as she listened.

Lo... licon?

Mo's appearance was indeed very young, true, but she'd already reached the age where she could be betrothed. Although there was still about a year until adulthood, she absolutely wasn't some underage little brat.

Moreover, being able to become Glaze Nation's first princess at such an age, to say Mo's mind wasn't mature, she didn't believe it at all. Her thoughts might even be more meticulous than some old foxes.

However, looking at the current situation, it still wasn't enough. Just suffering some humiliation and her true colors were revealed, losing her calm, shouting curses at her.

As expected, still just a little girl. Her previous composure and calm were probably forcibly squeezed out.

The little Princess was tired, gasping for breath, eyes nearly sitting on the ground. The Empress picked her up, carried her to the bathroom, and turned on the hot water valve to rinse the little Princess's body.

As for the puddle of water on the toilet floor, Ling was made to rinse it away.

Inside the bathroom, the little Princess turned her body toward the other side in a huff, leaving only her back to the Empress.

"Hmph."

She was angry, really angry this time, the kind that couldn't be coaxed better!

Not occupying any advantage physically, using force definitely couldn't win, so she could only give the cold shoulder.

This sulking appearance was exactly like a little loli!

During the subsequent bath, no matter how the Empress called her, she didn't reply a single word. The Empress's calls went in one ear and out the other. Her face was full of non-cooperation. Only when the Empress commanded her through the contract did she reluctantly cooperate to finish this bath.

Quite a stubborn temper. She liked it.

While bathing the little Princess, she also washed herself. Both emerged from the bath fragrant, returning to their previous state with the little Princess sitting in the Empress's lap, continuing to serve as a body pillow.

"..."

Holding her anger, she didn't want to talk to the Empress, but doing nothing was also very boring, so she could only fantasize in her mind about stepping on the Empress beneath her feet.

...

...

The Empress closed the book. The lovely person in her arms had fallen asleep at some unknown time, emitting small cute snoring sounds.

After carrying the little Princess back to bed and covering her with the blanket, she continued perfecting the notebook's contents.

Should she give herself a vacation in a few days?

Thinking about it, she hadn't given herself a vacation in quite a while. Even though now she had Mo adding some fun to her daily life, it still made her mentally fatigued. And as the supreme ruler, maintaining a rational mind and good mentality at all times was undoubtedly very important.

The supreme ruler was the empire's brain. When the brain had problems, the body being unable to function normally was also natural.

So, after thinking briefly, she selected a location, called Ling to give instructions, and had preparations made at the location in advance.

"Understood."

The Empress shifted her gaze back to the little Princess.

This outing could be considered tourism, resting for ten days to half a month to relax, bringing Mo along. After going out to play for a while, she probably wouldn't be angry anymore.

Of course, the bigger reason was that she was very interested in Mo and wanted to see Mo's bashful appearance.

"Your Majesty, people have already been sent to prepare."

"Mm, I know."

She was quite at ease with Ling handling matters. As the person closest to herself, if she couldn't trust her, who could she trust?

Right, today she still had to prepare for the general's funeral. Tomorrow she still had to hold a large funeral for him.

As Scarlet Phoenix Nation's first great general, General Mu's passing naturally required a grand funeral to match his image in the people's hearts.

"Phew~"

She still had to write a speech, write it then practice it, for use at the funeral.

As for tomorrow's speech, of course she'd write it herself. Then she wouldn't need to take the speech up to give the speech, and it would also make the people more convinced.

After spending half an hour drafting on paper, she spent another hour revising it to her satisfaction before stopping.

Tomorrow's speech problem was solved. Next was planning the travel itinerary and activities for a few days later.

If she brought Mo along, there would be many more things they could do together. For example, the two of them exploring the topic of "love and life" together, or researching how to grind tofu to make it tastier.

"Mm?"

Mo woke up, rubbed her eyes, and discovered she'd been placed back on the bed by the Empress. The Empress also noticed Mo had woken up on this side.

"Mo, come here."

Just about to obediently go sit on the Empress's lap, she suddenly remembered this morning's humiliating scene. She suddenly lay back down, turned over, and acted as if she hadn't heard anything.

Fei: "..."

Seeing the little Princess completely disobedient, she simply used the contract to forcibly make her sit on her thigh and placed the plan she'd just written in front of her.

"In a few days, I'll take you out to play. How about it?"

"Oh."

Mo had no interest in this whatsoever.

Even if she could step outside the Imperial City, what use was it? Wouldn't she still be unable to escape the Empress's control? One contract was enough to make her unable to escape for this entire life. Going out to play probably still meant watching the Empress's mood.

Although the Empress hadn't done anything excessive to her so far and hadn't used any punishment on her, she knew well that once the Empress truly became angry, she'd probably be tortured beyond recognition.

This was the reason she'd never revealed any thoughts of escaping. She was afraid of making the Empress angry. At that time, not only would she suffer torture, but the peace she'd exchanged herself for would also be broken. Glaze Nation would also suffer as a result. At that time, she'd probably truly have nothing left.

Now she dared to sulk in front of the Empress not only because she was truly angry, but also because she was testing the Empress's limits.

"So, Mo, what do you think of the plan?"

"Pretty good. Just like that."

The little Princess turned her small face to the side and replied perfunctorily.

The corner of the Empress's mouth lifted slightly.

Not looking at the plan now? Then wanting to regret it later would be too late.

Of course, she wouldn't remind the little Princess. She wanted to see the little Princess's flustered appearance at that time.
