Chapter 59 Huangtian Entertainment City
Chapter 59 Huangtian Entertainment City
"No way, the Central Plains Society's assessment is so strict. My knowledge of military and legal matters is terrible, not to mention fighting, my martial arts skills are awful..."
Lord Sikong said with great distress.
Tang Jingyao glared at him with exasperation, "I'll figure out a way to handle the legal aspects, but you must marry the Ninth Princess immediately and strive to become Lord Xingqitian's son-in-law. Then the royal family will definitely not dare to touch you easily again, and the people of the Sikong Mansion will have to reconsider your position."
"I don't even remember what the Ninth Princess looks like. She's so noble, intelligent, beautiful, and elegant, how could she possibly be interested in a good-for-nothing fiancé like me?"
"You just need to go and propose marriage, you fool! With Lord Xingqi Tian's relationship with General Sikong, he won't go back on his word. Also, Crown Prince Dibei will be coming in person to attend the Emperor's birthday banquet. You should visit him. No matter what, nominally your mother is still considered a member of their Great Zhou. Otherwise, do you think that old bastard Sikong Shu would so readily let your mother return to Crescent Moon Pavilion? Dream on!"
"The Crown Prince of Dibei? Princess Fenghua? Then he's related to me? He's my cousin?"
"Dream on! Cousin? We're only nominally related, but judging from your attitude, it's uncertain whether he'll even acknowledge you!"
"Di Bei... if he dares to ignore me, I'll... um? Di Bei? Di Bei? That name sounds familiar..."
Lord Sikong subconsciously pressed down on his sleeve, a beautiful, hazy look flashing across his clear eyes—Yes!
The man who amazed her—yes, it must be him!
Could he be the legendary Crown Prince of the Northern Empire?
Very good!
A wicked and treacherous smile crept across Lord Sikong's beautiful face, his eyes gleaming with a seductive light. Ji Wuge and Tang Jingyao couldn't help but shudder at the sight—"What are you doing? Why are you smiling so lewdly, so wickedly, so treacherously?"
When will the Crown Prince of the Northern Empire arrive in the capital?
"I don't know. His whereabouts are always mysterious. He might have already arrived in the capital. What are you planning to do?"
"I'm wondering what kind of woman he likes. Does he, like me, prefer women wearing black or red halter tops and sexy stockings? Hmm, I forgot, there aren't any black stockings here... Does he also like stunningly beautiful images like 'Flame Totem,' 'Wind, Flower, Snow, and Moon,' and 'Clouds and Rain on Wushan Mountain'?"
"Pfft!" "Pfft!" As soon as Lord Sikong finished speaking, Ji Wuge and Tang Jingyao both broke down, spitting out their wine. Ji Wuge even frantically wiped his face with his sleeve, slammed his hand on the table, pointed at Sikong Jin, and cursed, "Sikong Jin, you filthy rogue! You are so shameless!"
Tang Jingyao, however, calmly glanced at Sikong Jin and said in a low voice, "Give me the complete collection of 'Wind, Flowers, Snow, and Moon,' and you can pay back the 300,000 taels next year!"
"What? Tang Jingyao, you repressed pervert! No way, Sikong Jin, I want it too! Give me 'Flame Totem'!"
Ji Wuge's face darkened, and he said coldly.
Lord Sikong took a sip of wine, turned to look out the window, and said, "The weather is so nice today. Look, the sky is so blue and the clouds are so white. Let's drink happily, then go to Manfang Tower to find some beautiful girls, and afterwards go to Xiangshan to soak in the hot springs!"
"The hot springs here are the most comfortable to soak in!"
After lunch, the three brothers indeed went to Manfanglou again to find a few courtesans, listen to some songs, and get massages. They were very happy. Around noon, the three of them came out of Manfanglou and headed straight for Xiangshan Hot Spring Area.
Ji Wuge stripped naked, went into the water, leaned against the pool wall, lazily closed his eyes, and couldn't help but sigh in admiration.
Then, Tang Jingyao also took off his clothes and jumped in with a 'plop'. His body was beautifully shaped, and his body splashed into the pool, creating a beautiful spray. The water rippled slightly, and in the blink of an eye, he was sitting down next to Ji Wuge.
Lord Sikong stared wide-eyed at the surging water before him, momentarily lost in thought.
"What are you standing there for? Hurry up and take it off!"
Ji Wuge looked at Sikong Jin on the shore with a puzzled expression.
Lord Sikong shuddered, quickly regaining his composure. He shrugged and reached for his belt, loosening it as he said, "Oh, right, Jiji, do you still have that ointment you gave me last time? The weather in Malan City is hot and humid, and when it gets hot, the rash starts to appear again. It's so annoying; now both my thighs are covered in red spots..."
"What? Your rash hasn't healed yet?"
Before Sikong Jin could finish speaking, Ji Wuge stared at her with wide eyes.
Lord Sikong blinked innocently, his tone quite helpless, "It was almost healed before, but it's started to reappear recently because of the hot weather. Do you still have any medicine?"
"Wait! Why don't you go to the next room to soak? I'll have someone bring you the medicine later. It's a bit crowded here. Jingyao and I can soak here."
"No way! We brothers haven't had a proper talk in ages. I've already taken off my outer robe. Move over a bit, I need to... Ah! Tang Jingyao, why did you throw me?"
Lord Sikong turned sideways to dodge the towel that Tang Jingyao casually tossed to him.
"It's already very crowded here!"
"Yeah, right! This pool can hold at least ten people! Too many people and it won't be clean!"
"I don't know when you, Tang Jingyao, developed a germaphobia."
"You can hear what they're saying in the next room. Hurry up and go over, or it'll be ready in no time."
Under the relentless bombardment from Ji Wuge and Tang Jingyao, Lord Sikong reluctantly went to the next room and occupied it for himself.
This hot spring resort is the most upscale in the capital. The interior is luxuriously and elegantly furnished. The hot spring rooms are divided into sections of similar size by partitions, and there are gauze curtains in front of the doors. It is a very nice place to relax.
Just as Lord Sikong removed his clothes and submerged in the water, a series of 'bangs' came from the partition beside him, followed by Ji Wuge's voice—"Ajin, I heard you're planning to develop the Hilton in the Imperial City into some kind of Hilton Imperial Entertainment City? Besides restaurants, hotels, and inns, what about horse racing, boxing gyms, and nightclubs?"
“Yes, I always feel that the structure of restaurants and inns is too simple, and neither of them is the quickest way to make money. The war is tense now, especially since our Malan City is a remote area. Unlike Tang Jingyao and your Judicial Bureau, we can’t just sit there and have a bunch of people coming to your door with thick silver notes. Ji Ji, your family is your strong backing. I have to rely on myself.”
Do you have that much money?
Ji Wuge frowned; he still owed Tang Jingyao hundreds of thousands of taels of silver!
"I'll figure out the funding problem. I might not be in the capital very often in the future, so you'll have to take good care of me then."
