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

Chapter 206

206~

"Quick! Take me to Xiyan!"

She needed to go check on the little loli maid's injuries!

After all, Xiyan was hung up and lashed for an entire night because she secretly followed her out. As the instigator, she felt somewhat guilty.

"Please don't worry, Princess Mo. Xiyan is just sleeping now. Her body is not seriously harmed."

Red Leaf comforted the little Princess.

She was also following orders and didn't dare disobey the Empress's commands. Although she indeed hung her up and lashed her for half the night until the middle of the night, she also truly held back. Xiyan's body didn't have any obvious wounds. The whip marks on her body only needed a few days of rest to disappear.

Xiyan was brought up by her personally. She couldn't truly severely punish and lash her. The Empress also knew this point, which was why she handed Xiyan over to her for punishment.

This punishment was also meant to warn Xiyan not to casually listen to the little Princess's words and secretly go out. If something happened, no one could bear that responsibility.

"Red Leaf, take Mo to see."

The Empress ordered.

"Red Leaf understands."

Immediately after, the little Princess was brought to the maids' exclusive residence. Inside one residence were several rooms. Ling, Red Leaf, and Xiyan lived together. The residence location was also very close to where the Empress's bedchamber was, even having a back door leading directly to the corridor before the bedchamber, convenient for arriving at the Empress's bedchamber at the fastest speed when needed.

As soon as she pushed open the door, the little Princess immediately stepped forward, walked to Xiyan's bedside, and gently lifted the blanket to check Xiyan's injuries. At this time, Xiyan was still in a dream, seemingly having some nightmare, her hands tightly gripping the blanket.

After attempting unsuccessfully to lift the blanket, she simply dove right in and lifted Xiyan's clothing to begin the examination.

Red Leaf instinctively wanted to stop the little Princess. After all, the little Princess, as the Empress's Imperial Consort, had a rather important image to maintain.

However, after pausing slightly for a moment, she withdrew her hand again.

Just let Princess Mo take a good look. Perhaps this way, Princess Mo could also realize not to casually hide things from the Empress and do some dangerous things.

Now that the Empress was implementing a purge of some nobles, this made many nobles bear grudges. Inevitably, there would be some foolish nobles who would want to capture the little Princess to threaten the Empress. So at that time, the little Princess bringing Xiyan directly out of the Imperial Palace was a very dangerous thing.

Who knew if there might be an Archmage among those nobles to abduct the little Princess.

"Mm mm... Princess Mo..."

Xiyan in her dream, after having her clothing lifted by the little Princess, released the blanket and instead held the little Princess in her arms.

After being held, she couldn't continue the examination and could only try to wake the little loli maid Xiyan.

"Xiyan? Xiyan?"

"Mm..."

Not knowing if she heard the little Princess's call, Xiyan hugged even tighter, almost to the point where the little Princess couldn't move at all. Her two legs were also locked by Xiyan's feet.

"Red Leaf..."

......

With Red Leaf's help, after a round of struggling, the little Princess finally finished examining Xiyan's body. There was nothing seriously wrong, just some external injuries.

Now she felt much more at ease.

"Does Princess Mo still want to continue examining?"

The little Princess looked at Xiyan, who was still fast asleep while holding one of her arms. It seemed she was exhausted from the punishment.

"No need. Let Xiyan sleep well for a while."

"Then do you need me to help Your Highness pull your hand out?"

"Mm... no need either. I'll just take a nap here."

In principle, an Imperial Consort sleeping together with a maid was absolutely not allowed. The concept of social hierarchy in this world was still very deeply ingrained.

But this was Princess Mo, who didn't agree with this concept. Including Her Majesty the Empress, who also looked upon it lightly. Therefore, she wouldn't stop the little Princess's idea.

After drawing the curtains for the two, Red Leaf left this place and returned to report back to the Empress.

The little Princess lying on the bed, after yawning, also let the little loli maid Xiyan hold one arm as she fell into sleep.

Tomorrow, tomorrow she would attach the divinity of that gemstone to the dagger. Today, let her rest well once more.

......

......

......

"Hey, why haven't we arrived yet after so long?"

The young woman casually rested her legs on another young woman's legs.

"Miss Xiao Bai, could you please put your legs down?"

"No."

The young woman called Xiao Bai retorted.

"..."

Since Xiao Bai was unwilling to put her legs down, she seemed to have absolutely no way to deal with it. The deity had told her she couldn't anger this Miss Xiao Bai...

She didn't know what Miss Xiao Bai's background was. She only knew the other party could also use Divine Power, and her strength was far above hers. Add to that the deity telling her she couldn't anger her...

Seeing Elysia had no reaction, Xiao Bai went even further and rested her other foot up as well, propping up her chin with one hand:

"It seems you're very restricted by that someone."

Facing Xiao Bai's provocation, she also had absolutely no way to deal with it. She really didn't know how to follow Midilayo's will while also getting this young woman named Xiao Bai to put her legs down.

She also didn't know why Xiao Bai carried such great hostility toward her. She came up crazily mocking her right away, and the Order members below also all lost consciousness with a single wave of her hand.

"Um, Miss Elysia, Miss Xiao Bai, there seem to be people blocking the road ahead. I need to go negotiate..."

The soldier driving the carriage lifted the curtain and said to the two.

"Then clear them away. Don't delay the journey."

Xiao Bai casually made a "kill them all" gesture.

"But... the other party is from Raider Empire..."

Right now they were all on Raider Empire's territory. If they killed Raider Empire soldiers, it would be very troublesome. Maybe in a moment, a large group of soldiers would come and surround them all.

"I said clear them all away."

"This..."

The soldier was still hesitating when Xiao Bai had already extended one finger aimed at the soldiers blocking the road ahead. Divine Power condensed at her fingertip. The next second, it exploded toward the blocking soldiers at an astonishing speed.

Boom!!

With an explosion sound, a radius of over ten meters outward from the explosion center was all blasted into a deep pit.

"Continue the journey!"

"Yes...!"

Afraid he would also be dealt with like that group of Raider Empire soldiers, the soldier driving the carriage immediately returned to the horse. After calming the frightened horse, he cracked the reins and drove the carriage around the deep pit, heading toward Scarlet Phoenix Nation.

Elysia swallowed her saliva in the carriage. She hadn't expected Xiao Bai would so casually blast and kill Raider Empire soldiers. You had to know this was an extremely serious incident that could very likely cause the two countries to go to war!

Although as the bishop of the Abundance Order, she had long been displeased with the Midias royal family, she had never casually blasted and killed another country's soldiers like Xiao Bai! And on their territory at that!

This Miss Xiao Bai, could she be lacking even some of the most basic common sense?
