Chapter 443 Headache
Sikong Jin rolled her eyes at him, too lazy to pay him any attention, and walked up to the throne. She plopped down on the throne, felt it for a moment, and then laughed, “It’s more comfortable and softer than a regular chair. Sitting like this, I really feel like I’m looking down on the world. No wonder so many people are crazy about it.”
As Sikong Jin spoke, a cold sneer couldn't help but flicker across her lips.
"That's how the struggle for imperial power is. To become the supreme ruler of the world, there will be bloodshed and sacrifice. Shouldn't you take it all in stride?"
Di Beizun stared at her intently and said in a low voice.
Sikong Jin did not answer. He lowered his head and remained silent for a while before raising his head to look at the soldiers outside who were still busy cleaning up. After a while, he slowly got up and walked down.
"Your Majesty! Congratulations! Lord Sikong has conquered Tian Sheng and pacified the Southern Continent!"
Just then, a cheerful voice suddenly came from outside.
Sikong Jin looked in the direction of the sound and realized it was General Feng Yang.
He rushed in with an expression of ecstatic joy, and greeted Emperor Beizun with a smile, cupping his fists in greeting.
Di Beizun nodded and flicked his sleeve, indicating that there was no need for further formalities.
"How's the situation outside?"
Emperor Beizun stood with his hands behind his back, his expression indifferent and calm as still water, and asked in a low voice.
"The battlefield has been cleared, and the brothers have been allowed to return to camp to rest as Your Majesty instructed. The patrol teams have maintained order, so Your Majesty can rest assured."
Feng Yang replied.
"Have you seen Sikong Momei, Ruhua, and Meng Benbo?"
As soon as Feng Yang finished speaking, Sikong Jin suddenly asked a question.
Since they had decided to leave that night, there were some things that needed to be arranged. The situation in Dayong must be quite turbulent right now, so she and Di Beizun could only make arrangements here and then rush back to the Dayong capital.
"They are directing the brothers to take inventory of supplies. Does Lord Sikong wish to summon them?"
"Go and call them over here."
Sikong Jin waved her sleeve, and Feng Yang then withdrew.
Watching Feng Yang's figure disappear outside, Sikong Jin turned around, walked to the steps in front of her, and sat down. She looked up at Di Beizun, hesitated for a moment, and her clear eyes flickered a few times before she said hesitantly, "Di Beizun, why don't you let Xiao Mo come back with us? He hasn't seen my mother for several years. He might be able to help with this rescue operation."
Sikong Jin was not comfortable leaving Sikong Mo alone in the army. The original plan was to have him go to Da Zhou with Di Beizun, but unexpectedly, this change of heart occurred.
“I have already sent him directly back to Fengyun Tower. He will need someone to coordinate the rescue of the people. You know better than anyone what the situation is like in the capital of Dayong. If they find out that you have returned to the capital, you will be walking into a trap. Besides, the journey may not be peaceful.”
Emperor Beizun saw through Sikong Jin's thoughts at a glance and said this.
It was obvious that Emperor Dayong had trapped Su Yue in order to blackmail Sikong Jin. Moreover, Sikong Jin was certain that the entire territory of Dayong was now filled with Emperor Dayong's spies, and they would be very likely to be discovered as soon as they stepped into Dayong.
Therefore, the journey is very likely to be fraught with danger, and if Sikong Mo accompanies him...
"Don't worry, Xiao Mo is safer staying in Fengyun Tower. Zi Yuan will take care of him."
Emperor Beizun offered a word of comfort.
Sikong Jin could only nod. This time, she and Di Beizun would head straight for the Dayong Imperial City from here, which might be safer.
Lord Sikong naturally wouldn't know that with Di Beizun's skills, it wouldn't be difficult for him to bring Sikong Mo along. However, he and Sikong Jin had finally managed to have some time alone together, and now he was accompanied by his brother-in-law. What was going on?
Before long, Sikong Mo and Mei Ruhua and a few others arrived.
"My lord! My lord! There's a thousand-year-old Ganoderma lucidum on the left corner of the city gate of Tiansheng. We were just about to pick it for you to make wine, but the Great Zhou snatched it away and refused to give it to us no matter what! My lord, you're already under His Majesty the Northern Emperor's command, so we're practically his family. Why won't these Great Zhou bastards let us have it?"
"Exactly! Exactly! So impolite and ungrateful!"
"My lord, I've heard that the girls at the Tianxiang Pavilion in Tiansheng Imperial City are incredibly beautiful, and they can also perform very alluring belly dances, wearing very little and revealing clothing. Let's go check it out tonight!"
"Lord Zhu, is belly dancing very beautiful?"
"Of course it looks good, doesn't it, Bobo?"
"That's right, sir. I've heard that their eyes are very alluring and seductive, making it hard to resist..."
“Then I’ll go too. Last time, Protector Changfeng wouldn’t let me in, saying that children shouldn’t go in because it’s unhealthy, but he came out very happy!”
"Meng Benbo, Zhu Si, you two bastards, can't you think of anything else?"
Sure enough, I heard his voice before I saw him!
They've arrived!
The group had been making a lot of noise the whole way here. When they arrived at the main hall and saw Di Beizun standing next to Sikong Jin, they were so frightened that they didn't even dare to breathe!
Sikong Jin, sitting on the steps, raised her head and squinted at the few people standing in front of her, who were silently bowing their heads and not saying a word.
"Go ahead and say it! Why are you suddenly quiet? Weren't you just talking so happily?"
Sikong Jin's eerie voice came through.
"Sikong Mo, you also want to go to Tianxiang Pavilion to find courtesans? Otherwise, your older brother will find you a wife when we get back?"
"No, brother, I'm just curious..."
"Meng Benbo, who did you just call your maternal family?"
……
"Your Majesty, my lord, spare my life!"
The group then knelt down in panic, wailing in pain.
Sikong Jin looked at the group and felt a headache coming on!
Sikong Mo has been spending too much time with them lately, and she's almost become like them herself, so she has to isolate them as soon as possible. All of her subordinates are oddballs.
Lord Sikong frowned and gestured for them to rise. He then gave them a brief overview of the situation in Dayong.
The smiles on their faces just moments before suddenly turned serious; they couldn't believe the news that Yukichi Ten had been ambushed and killed!
"My lord, how is this possible? Lord Yukichi Ten is always accompanied by his guards, and the thousands of guards around him are all elites. How could he be seriously injured by a few rebels? Moreover, his martial arts skills are very high!"
The female deputy general, Mei Ruhua, offered her opinion. When she was working under Sikong Qi, she had interacted with Xing Qitian quite a bit and knew a little about his situation.
