Transmigrating to a Female-Dominated World: Pampering My Little Husband

In order to prevent the anger of the Western Shu Kingdom from being transferred to them, Wen Qing could only speak softly.

“Prince Rongdi, please don’t be angry. It was Fenglin Kingdom and Han Zixuan who hurt you and Xishu from beginning to end, not me and Dongsang Kingdom.”

Rong Di's expression changed, and he sneered, "Heh, the Third Prince really has a silver tongue."

Knowing that the deed has already been done, Dongsang Kingdom probably won't admit it no matter what.

But now that he had suffered this injustice in silence, he couldn't swallow his anger. He turned his gaze to Wen Qing with a scrutinizing look.

“You’re right. This prince naturally knows who to seek revenge against, but…”

"But what?"

"Ah, as the saying goes, we should share joys and sorrows. As an ally, the Third Prince of Dongsang Kingdom should naturally also bear some of the losses from the failure of this plan!"

Wen Qing froze for a moment, her face instantly turning extremely pale.

The people of Western Shu immediately became interested, and Tana said loudly, "That's right, we, the whole of Western Shu, cannot bear the responsibility if the plan fails."

Your Dongsang Kingdom is also involved in this.

"Yes, yes, if the people of Fenglin knew that this was planned by your Dongsang Kingdom... they would naturally not be able to escape either. As for whether they would be as lucky as my Xishu, we don't know."

"Yes, Feng Lin has always looked down on your Dongsang Kingdom. If he were to actually launch an attack on your Dongsang Kingdom, you probably wouldn't be able to withstand it, hehehe..."

Wen Qing finally understood that the Western Shu Kingdom was not so easy to manipulate.

Compared to Fenglin Kingdom, they are like wolves in the forest... Joining forces with them is like asking a tiger for its skin.

But in this situation, if I don't give them a satisfactory answer...

I'm afraid they really will do as they're told.

The Eastern Sang Kingdom truly couldn't afford to offend two powerful nations. Thinking of this, Wen Qing could only grit her teeth and ask, "How will the Rongdi prince bear this responsibility...?"

Rong Di chuckled. "Hehe, alright. Empress Fenglin has ordered Western Shu to pay 200,000 taels of silver in compensation... plus the severe injuries I suffered."

"Your Dongsang Kingdom can simply contribute an additional 150,000 taels of silver."

Before Wen Qing could speak, Chen Pi suddenly said, "Fifteen hundred and fifty thousand taels... This is simply extortion."

Tana immediately raised her eyebrows and shouted, "How dare you... Who gives you the right to speak here, you lowly servant?"

He made a move to teach Chen Pi a lesson, but Wen Qing stopped him, saying, "Princess Tana... I will personally teach my servants from Dongsang Kingdom a lesson."

"There's no need for you to do it..." His eyes were fixed intently on Tana.

"Sister Wang!" Rong Di called out as well.

Tana then angrily withdrew her hand and snorted, "Hmph, small countries just don't know the rules."

Wen Qing calmed herself down and said, "Heh, it was this lowly servant who was rude, but what she said was also true."

"What do you mean! You have objections to this decision?"

"Hehe, that's natural. This prince is willing to take responsibility, but I won't let your Western Shu Kingdom make exorbitant demands..."

"I urge Prince Rongdi to think this through. Although I was the one who brought this up, you are the one who initiated it, and it is also to avenge you."

Unexpectedly, my Eastern Sang Kingdom failed and became the scapegoat... Since it is the Phoenix Kingdom that is demanding compensation from your Western Shu, I am willing to offer 50,000 taels of silver..."

Tana couldn't help but say, "What do you mean only 50,000 taels... even if it's not 150,000 taels, it should at least be 100,000 taels..."

Rong Di immediately scolded, "Tana!" He then turned to Wen Qing and said, "The Third Prince is not joking with us."

Wen Qing took a few steps, not frightened by Tana, and continued in a gentle voice, "This 50,000 taels was something I voluntarily contributed after having a very pleasant conversation with the Rongdi prince."

Do not mention again what you said to Fenglin before.

After all, not a single person from my Eastern Sang Kingdom was spared. Feng Lin might not believe your words from Western Shu alone..."

With confidence and composure, they looked back at the Rong and Di tribes. The envoys from the Western Shu Kingdom exchanged glances and whispered among themselves.

Rong Di pondered for a moment, then nodded slightly and said, "Heh, fine, fifty thousand taels it is..."

After Wen Qing left, Tana couldn't suppress her curiosity and frowned, saying, "How could my brother let Dongsang Kingdom leave so easily?"

"If you ask me, the reason we've fallen out with Fenglin Kingdom like this is all because of that Third Prince's meddling. Why did he only have to pay 50,000 taels..."

She couldn't understand how someone as intelligent as her brother could so easily agree to the Third Prince's request.

Rong Di adjusted himself to feel less uncomfortable, and breathed a sigh of relief, saying, "Tana, you don't understand. That Third Prince is not simple; he's very cunning. We really don't have any substantial evidence."

They didn't leave any evidence against Dongsang Kingdom, so getting 50,000 taels from them is already the best possible outcome.

Looking back now, it seems that they were probably plotted against from the very beginning by this third prince, who intensified their relationship with Fenglin Kingdom before proposing a joint effort.

He remained hidden behind the scenes, and everything seemed to be led by them, but once the truth came out, he left no trace.

"What...are we just supposed to take the blame ourselves...?" Tana was still somewhat incredulous.

"This is all we can do now. Not only have we failed to gather any intelligence on Fenglin Kingdom, but we've also aroused suspicion, which will only make things more difficult."

"And then there's Han Zixuan..." This makes things even more difficult.

"Then what should we do now, Brother Wang... We will be leaving Fenglin in two days."

"Am I just going to make this wasted trip, losing over ten thousand taels of silver? If Mother knew..."

They came to Fenglin with solemn promises, but now they are returning like defeated roosters. Their mother will surely be furious.

Rong Di's brows were also furrowed at this moment. As a prince sent for a political marriage, he had never suffered such humiliation as being disliked by another country.

Now that he's suffered such serious injuries, how could he possibly accept this...?

Tana's words made him feel particularly annoyed. "Enough, let's leave it at that for now. You should go back. I want to be alone..."

“But…” Tana glanced at Rong Di worriedly, but before she could finish speaking, she heard Rong Di’s loud shouts of shooing her away.

"go out……"

Seeing Rongdi's appearance, Tana could only leave dejectedly.

After returning from this trip, Chen Pi said angrily, "Your Highness, the Western Shu Kingdom has actually made such an impolite request."

"How can they ask us for money when they've already agreed on compensation with Feng Lin..."

The warmth that followed their departure completely erased the hesitation and melancholy that had just been there.

Her face was calm, and the curve of her lips showed that she was in a very good mood.

"That Rongdi prince must have already guessed my plan."

I'm unwilling to accept everything so vaguely and without any clear explanation.

"What I just said about Empress Fenglin claiming we were also involved was just a deliberate attempt to trick us."

"Ah? Then... then why did Your Highness agree to pay that fifty thousand taels of silver?"

Since they have no evidence, why don't we just pretend we don't know and deny it to the death?

Now that you've given me the money, it's like you're admitting it yourself...
