Deposed Crown Prince: After three years of service on the frontier, the entire court knelt and begge

Baird and the others chimed in, "It is indeed very important! However, once we take this hostage back, we can't beat him, we can't scold him, we have to treat him well."

Hanati nodded: "In that case, not only will there be no benefit, but it will also create a lot of trouble!"

Diliti snorted coldly and said, "You're all quite clever. You know that good-for-nothing is a hot potato, and you don't want him! You just want to pass him on to us?"

Nanxi watched them make excuses, each thinking of staying a thousand miles away from Xiao Ce.

She was extremely worried.

However, it's not convenient to be too direct, so I have to wait for a suitable opening to continue the conversation.

Baird and the others wore pained expressions: "No, to be honest, this good-for-nothing is related to the peace between our two countries, so he can't die. Our national strength..."

Seeing that they were still trying to refuse, Diliti quickly waved his hand and said, "Alright, we can't let you have all the benefits! If you don't want Xiao Ce, then we will take back our decision."

When Diliti said this, his expression became even more interesting.

Seeing that his chance had finally come, he immediately looked tense: "We can't take it back! We want it! We want it!"

As he spoke, Nanxi looked at the other rulers with an embarrassed expression.

When the other rulers saw that Nanxi had agreed, they were no longer so resolute!

After all, if Nanxi speaks up like this, they can later privately hand over that good-for-nothing Xiao Ce to Nanxi.

Seeing this, Diliti said, "Look at you all, you don't even have the courage of a mere woman! Nanxi has spoken up, you have no objections, right?"

Everyone immediately revealed a meaningful smile: "No, of course we have no objections."

Thus, with each of them harboring their own ulterior motives, they reached an agreement.

Under Diliti's allocation, the four countries were assigned to this prefecture, with several located in the surrounding cities.

To reach these cities, one must travel through the territory of the Kingdom of Uz.

However, they didn't say anything.

After all, as they said, they really didn't do anything this time; they just took their troops on a trip.

The celebration banquet ended without any major incident.

After they each went back...

Diliti followed Chi Gao back and asked him, "Lord Chi Gao, all those people think Xiao Ce is a piece of trash! Are we really going to abandon him?"

Chi Gao glanced at it disdainfully: "Of course it's a piece of shit. That piece of trash is useless except for wasting a little food. Keeping it here would only bring more trouble! You're not going to be reluctant to part with it, are you?"

Diliti waved his hand and said, "I just wanted to use him... wasn't it because he could also use Xiao Yang?"

Chi Gao said, "Didn't I tell you? We'll have the instructor handle it and get their contact information. Then, you can tell Xiao Yang whatever you want, right?"

Diliti nodded upon seeing this, feeling that it wasn't that simple.

However, his thinking was very simple: if any problems arose, Chi Gao would definitely be responsible. In any case, he would do whatever Chi Gao said!

Chi Gao asked, "Which country do you think that good-for-nothing will go to?"

Diliti raised an eyebrow and said without hesitation, "No need to even think about it, it's definitely going to Shanshan... Those Bairdas won't take them in. Of the four countries, Shanshan is the weakest... If they try to hand that good-for-nothing over to Nanxi in Shanshan, Nanxi probably won't even utter a peep!"

Seeing Diliti say this, Chi Gao smiled and nodded in approval: "That's right, it's a perfect match! A good-for-nothing going to a good-for-nothing country ruled by a woman... a perfect match!"

Diliti, unusually, nodded in approval, just like Chi Gao did from the bottom of his heart.

...

This is where Bairdda lives at this time.

The four countries gathered together.

After Bairdda left Dilit, it was obvious that his back straightened up a bit.

“Alright, thanks to our efforts, we’ve managed to secure some benefits for ourselves! Now let’s talk about how to divide them,” Baird said.

Hanati replied, "Need I say more? Just now, our three countries risked a complete falling out with Uzbekistan to negotiate the benefits with Dilit! So, naturally, we'll take the lion's share!"

Dawulieti said, "That's right, I think we should divide the four cities among ourselves! As for the big gift, we'll give it to Nanxi!"

Upon hearing Dawuleti's words, the crowd wore intriguing expressions: "That's right, this is a fair distribution!"

Nanxi was overjoyed.

However, she naturally behaved very restrained at this moment.

After all, she knew them very well, and these people would definitely try to pin the blame on her.

Therefore, she had to appear completely uninterested at this point.

Otherwise, if she shows even a hint of interest, they will change their minds.

So she suppressed her anxiety and excitement.

"No! My lords, you cannot harm me..."

Seeing Nan Xi's flustered and nervous expression, these people showed no mercy whatsoever.

Dawuleti spoke first: "Nanxi, we didn't want that good-for-nothing just now. You were the one who agreed!"

Nanxi's eyes looked like they were about to turn red.

"That's not it...that's not how it is...you all saw Dilit's state just now. If we were to negotiate, it would definitely fall apart..."

Before Nanxi could finish speaking, Baird interrupted, "Nanxi, you're being too hasty in your judgment. We already had a plan. Look at that bastard Diliti just now, he wanted to give us a city, and in the end... if you hadn't rashly given in, we wouldn't have taken over that good-for-nothing!"

"Whoever brings in the people is responsible..."

Nan Xi said with a bitter face, "My lords, then it's settled. I don't want any of those cities. But I don't want this person either... I'll just consider this trip a waste..."

Hanati snorted coldly: "Nanxi, you make it sound so nice! What do you have to do with us taking those cities? None!"

"And that proton is the one you wanted back! So naturally you took it!"

Dawuleti nodded: "That's right, he's right. Nanxi, that hostage is the eldest son of the first prince, he might be useful in the future."

Baird said, "Nanxi, just keep that good-for-nothing in for now. We won't let you suffer! Next time, next time you'll definitely get your share of the benefits."

Nanxi looked embarrassed and said, "King of Baird, you can't bully a woman like me... I can't go back empty-handed with nothing but trouble. I can't face my people."

Baird shook his head and said, "Nanxi, you've seen the attitudes of the other kings. Whether you agree to this matter today or not, it's the same... You might as well just agree readily, and we certainly won't forget you next time we have the chance!"

"Good, Nanxi! It's easy for us now that you're cooperating. We'll remember your kindness. But if you don't listen to us… then… without our protection, you…"

Nan Xi was secretly overjoyed, but his face wore a bitter expression: "Since you've all said so, then next time something good happens, you mustn't forget our Shanshan Kingdom..."

The other rulers, seeing that they had achieved their goals, nodded happily.

Then came a series of empty promises to Nanxi!

After saying that, he let Nanxi leave…

Nanxi knew they were going to 'divide the spoils' next, but how they divided them was none of Nanxi's business.

She was so happy, she was practically ecstatic.

After all, if she had to choose, it would be between Xiao Ce and the entire prefecture and ten cities.

She didn't hesitate for a moment; she would definitely choose Xiao Ce.

After she left, she returned to her residence.

Ling Chang was already waiting. Seeing Nan Xi's pale face, she quickly stepped forward and asked, "Your Majesty, how is it? Did you gain anything?"

Nanxi shook his head: "Of the total area of ​​one prefecture and ten cities, Dilit of the Kingdom of Uzbekistan gave us four countries and four cities!"

Ling Chang wasn't too surprised when she heard this.

After all, Ling Chang knew what kind of people they were.

"Four cities, one for each person. Although it's not great, it's not a wasted trip."

Nan Xi shook his head and said to Ling Chang, "That's how Diliti divided the spoils! But Bairda and the others didn't give us a single city!"

Ling Chang was furious upon hearing this: "Your Majesty! Their behavior is outrageous! You just agreed like that? You should have taken me with you! I..."

Nan Xi smiled as he looked at Ling Chang's furious expression: "However, they gave me another big gift!"

Ling Chang asked in confusion, "Another great gift? What other great gift could there be? Could it be that they gave us a hostage? If they really did give us a hostage, that would indeed be a great gift!"

"However, it's quite obvious that Diliti and his group seem to want to use Xiao Ce. But how could that be?!"

Ling Chang became more and more disappointed as she spoke.

However, seeing Nanxi's expression, a hint of expectation flashed in Ling Chang's eyes, and her voice began to tremble as she said, "Your Majesty, the great gift you mentioned wouldn't really be Xiao Ce, would it?"

Nan Xi had already walked deep into the residence, and his excitement was no longer hidden on his face.

He looked at Ling Chang with a happy expression and said, "That's right, for a long time to come, Xiao Ce will be a hostage in our Shanshan Kingdom!"

After hearing this, Ling Chang couldn't help but scream with excitement.

"Really? Your Majesty, are you kidding me? How could they bear to let Xiao Ce go?"

Nan Xi said excitedly, "They probably all think he's a complete good-for-nothing! But you did a great job this time, thank goodness you endured it all the way!"

Ling Chang nodded, then said excitedly, "Your Majesty, you haven't even communicated with him, yet you believe me so readily?"

Nan Xi smiled and said, "First, I believe in you; second, I believe in my eyes; and third, I believe in my judgment! It is Heaven's will that our Shanshan Kingdom will rise!"

As he spoke, Nan Xi's gaze turned colder: "Those short-sighted people are destined to be trampled under our feet!"
