How I Pampered the Tyrant Into Devotion With My Space-Chapter 626: No One Does It Better Than Her

After speaking, he looked at the several guards beside him.

"Come, won’t you escort the Princess Consort onto the carriage to return to the palace?"

The guards nodded repeatedly and then took a step toward Pei Shu’er.

Things were about to turn tough.

Xuan Liu led his men to block Pei Shu’er, his eyes sharp.

"Mr. Li, our Princess Consort is unwell. Once she recovers, she will enter the palace."

Seeing that the people from the Prince Zhan Mansion were more numerous, Li Xide weighed the situation.

Then, he said coldly, "I will relay the Consort’s words to the Emperor without missing a single word."

Pei Shu’er nodded and smiled at Li Xide.

"Then I trouble you, Mr. Li."

Upon reaching the palace, Yan Hengyin heard from Li Xide about Pei Shu’er’s demeanor, his face distinctly displeased.

"The War King’s family truly doesn’t regard me at all!"

Li Xide said, "Emperor, indeed so, but the situation is complex, and we are helpless against the Prince Zhan Mansion."

Yan Hengyin took a deep breath, even with his usual composure.

Facing such arrogant ministers, he couldn’t help but feel some anger.

Not to mention, this woman used to be fully obedient to him.

This psychological contrast was quite uncomfortable for him.

He used to think that becoming Emperor would mean the world belonged to him, and he could act as he pleased.

Only now did he realize that’s not the case.

Being the Emperor comes with many worries and requires considering many aspects.

He must consider the balance of power, and how to use people—whether they are trustworthy.

Especially now, with Tang Zan as a powerful minister in the court, he was greatly restrained.

Moreover, Yan Huan Yu, the commoner Prince, has quickly risen to become the third major force.

He had underestimated him before.

Because of the current tripartite situation, he couldn’t clash with Tang Zan, or the other party would reap the benefits.

Compared to Tang Zan, Yan Huan Yu posed an even greater threat.

After all, as powerful as Tang Zan might be, his name is not legitimate.

Contrarily, Yan Huan Yu, though only a commoner Prince, indeed possessed the Emperor’s bloodline.

Pei Lingling waited around in the palace but didn’t see Pei Shu’er.

After inquiring, she found how arrogant Pei Shu’er had become, defying the decree to enter the palace.

Yet, they truly couldn’t do anything about Pei Shu’er.

Compared to Pei Shu’er’s caution, her previous visit to the Prince Mansion seemed utterly foolish.

And Pei Shu’er knew, even though she defied the decree, Yan Hengyin couldn’t do anything to her.

She was at home, teasing Tang Chong, teaching Tang Chong to roll over, first one by one. She curled her feet beside him, personally demonstrating to Tang Chong.

Tang Chong smiled at Pei Shu’er; as she made a movement, he followed suit.

Watching his little attempts to roll over, Pei Shu’er could barely restrain the affection in her eyes.

She encouraged Tang Chong softly by his side.

"Come on, Chong’er, you can do it, yes, just turn over like that."

Liu Xu teased gently beside them, "Our Shu’er is really patient with children."

Shen Wanqing also praised, "I find that Shu’er has become a lot more gentle."

Pei Shu’er laughed, "Being a little gentler, isn’t that good?"

The two mothers laughed, "Good, of course, it’s good."

Aside from her leisure moments with the child, Pei Shu’er also managed the inner household of the Prince Zhan Mansion,

alongside handling businesses in the Capital.

Now that Tang Zan’s army had grown, she allocated funds to support him in raising soldiers.

Whenever there’s too much money, for Pei Shu’er, it was just a string of numbers.

She might as well use it to support Tang Zan’s ventures.

She and Tang Zan were now intertwined in fortune and misfortune.

And Tang Zan, because the Minister of War and Minister of the Ministry of Industry were his people, issued permits for himself to forge weapons.

Previously, many Gulan Soldiers didn’t have weapons.

And Tang Zan later recruited some more troops, also without weapons.

To fight, they couldn’t possibly confront others empty-handed.

Tang Zan returned midway once, seeing the Prince Zhan Mansion well-kept, he felt touched and grateful too.

He embraced Pei Shu’er.

"I’m so fortunate that you are the War Princess. Otherwise, no one else could do it as well as you."

Pei Shu’er smiled slightly, "The Prince flatters me."

Tang Zan laughed, "All I say is true. With the situation surrounded by wolves now, if you weren’t strong, I couldn’t be stable at the front."

They hadn’t seen each other for over two months, almost a year and a half without sharing a room, naturally leading to a passionate reunion.

Afterwards, Tang Zan carried Pei Shu’er to bathe, discussing upcoming matters as they washed.

"We’ve been forging weapons recently, but the weapons tend to break easily."

Pei Shu’er said, "How about taking me with you next time you leave? My mother and father can hold down the mansion, no major issues should arise in the short term."

The next day, when she went out, Pei Shu’er observed the iron mining and processing procedures, furrowing her brows.

She instinctively felt the iron-smelting method was wrong.

But she couldn’t pinpoint exactly what was wrong.

Then she pulled Tang Zan, went to her own space, and pulled out all the videos and books on metal smelting.

They first watched the videos, finding it novel for Tang Zan as his first time encountering them.

After watching the videos, Tang Zan was slightly stunned.

"If we follow the video, we indeed made several mistakes in smelting metal before."

Pei Shu’er nodded, then handed a Swiss Army knife to Tang Zan, instructing him to slice through the forged blades.

He found that using his Inner Strength, the blades broke in two, leaving only a small chip on the Swiss Army knife.

Tang Zan’s eye lit up, "This weapon is excellent. If all our weapons were like this, our advantage would further expand."

Pei Shu’er smiled, "It’s possible, there’s a video on how to make the material too."

Then they stayed up all night watching videos, and after finishing, they both understood.

Besides watching many professional books, when they headed out, they could be considered experts in metallurgy and weapon forging.

Yet, to forge quality metal, a good furnace was necessary; otherwise, everything was futile.

After calculations, they determined the furnace’s materials and began instructing others to smelt.

The smelted metal was much harder than before, and less prone to rusting.

Placing two metal pieces side by side, the previously smelted one broke, but the latter still intact.

Thus, they re-smelted former metal blades and swords into the furnace again.

The soldiers initially didn’t understand but had no dissent upon seeing the new iron.

Even their eyes filled with anticipation.
