The number one spendthrift woman in the capital actually brings glory to her entire family?

Chapter 427 The Heartbroken Lord Sikong

However, just as he put down the ruby, Di Beizun reached out and picked up another sapphire, glanced at it, and then put it back. Lord Sikong's eyes lit up again, and just as he was about to say something, Di Beizun reached out and wrapped up the whole pile of treasures. Just as he was about to put them into his sleeve, he suddenly realized that the cloth wrapping the treasures in his hand was not quite right...

It's very soft, and it seems to have a fragrance, a very strong scent of rouge...

The young emperor seemed to suddenly realize something, and immediately tossed the treasures aside. He then pulled on a thin ribbon and slightly raised his hand, only to find that it was actually a small undergarment!

Pink!

Embroidered with blooming peach blossoms!

It smells awful!

Di Beizun's cold and noble face immediately darkened slightly. His deep and mysterious eyes narrowed as he looked at Lord Sikong and asked in a cold voice, "Whose?"

Lord Sikong's heart was practically leaping out of his chest!

It was a dark and stormy night, so dark you couldn't see your hand in front of your face. She only heard a couple doing *that*, then sneaked in, grabbed a piece of cloth, wrapped it up, and quickly retreated. Little did she know she had grabbed this little undergarment, which was a size too big for her!

Stared intently into his deep eyes, Lord Sikong chuckled awkwardly and quickly said, "Mine, of course it's mine, it smells so good... I just bought it, I was just about to wear it for you... Does it look good?"

"Is that so? I think this fragrance is off."

Di Beizun's gaze turned slightly cold, and even Lord Sikong sensed a dangerous aura.

"The scent is off? How could that be? I don't use perfume, and I haven't bathed for days. It's quite possible the scent has gone bad!"

As Lord Sikong spoke, he sniffed himself.

"Sikong Jin!"

Di Beizun narrowed his eyes coldly, startling Lady Sikong. Before she could react, he had already thrown the object over, while picking up a cup of tea to wash his hands. "Remember what you said today."

"Ah? What did you say?"

Lord Sikong was caught off guard and did not react immediately. However, Emperor Beizun had already put all those treasures into a box on the side, which made Lord Sikong's heart ache!

He actually kept all the things that he had painstakingly retrieved!

Lady Sikong waved away the flying pink treasures, then stared blankly as the pile of treasures disappeared bit by bit. It felt as if a knife had pierced her heart, and she could even see drops of hot blood dripping from her chest.

However, as long as it makes him happy, that's all that matters.

Where have you been these past few days?

After putting it away, Di Beizun calmly looked up at Lady Sikong, taking in the heartache on her face. Now, the torment he had endured over the past few days finally made him feel a little more at ease.

How could he not know her little tricks? It might work in front of her clueless subordinates, but she wants to use the same tactic on him?

"Nowhere in particular. The march was boring, so I thought I'd earn some extra cash!"

Lord Sikong sullenly sat down in a seat to the side!

We really lost a lot of money this time!

Feng Yu was given to Xi Fenglie, and even the treasures she had painstakingly collected were taken by him. She also didn't know how to ask him about the things hidden in her sleeve!

If she were to speak up, wouldn't that be tantamount to telling him directly that she had gone to see Xi Fenglie?

At this moment, Lord Sikong suddenly felt overwhelmed and had a terrible headache. He had even made a promise to Xifeng Lie!

Forget it, let's talk about it after we take over the Heavenly Saint Imperial City!

Lord Sikong rubbed his forehead, took a deep breath, and told himself this.

Eunuch Xu quickly brought out steaming hot food and wine, and poured wine for the two of them.

Lady Sikong was still thinking about whether to give him a joyful kiss to celebrate their reunion, but the tempting aroma of the food wafted into her nose and she couldn't resist!

Along the way, besides trying to make some extra money while traveling, they neglected to eat, just managing to eat a few dry, hard steamed buns and drink the wine from their wine flasks. Now they are starving.

Lord Sikong picked up his wine, took a delicious sip, and couldn't help but praise, "Eunuch Xu, I've discovered that the wine from your Great Zhou is the best. It smells like brandy. It would be perfect with some peanuts!"

"Lord Sikong, this old servant will have them prepare peanuts immediately!"

"That's what Eunuch Xu said with a smile."

"Okay, okay! And another crispy roast chicken, please! Go on!"

Lord Sikong smiled innocently.

However, Di Beizun gave her a cold look—

I almost forgot, this woman is an expert in everything from eating and drinking to gambling and whoring!

"What's wrong? Why are you looking at me like that? Aren't you going to eat?"

Lord Sikong tore off a leg and handed it to him, saying, "Tell me about the situation in the city. When do you plan to start the war?"

Upon hearing this, Di Beizun did not accept the chicken leg she offered, but instead sat down leisurely in the seat next to her. "According to the news brought back by the scouts, the Heavenly Saint Emperor has gathered a total of 800,000 to 900,000 troops inside and outside the imperial city. This is almost the Heavenly Saint Emperor's last trump card. The walls of the Heavenly Saint Imperial City have been reinforced quite a bit, and their preparations for war are very thorough."

Sikong Jin withdrew her hand, took a bite of the chicken leg, and mumbled, "They're fighting to the death, so we need to be prepared. Once the big battle starts, the resistance we encounter will definitely be very fierce. By the way, isn't there already a famine in the city? Would be more effective if we besieged them for a few more days?"

“They have transported a lot of grain by sea. I don’t want to wait that long. The war here must be resolved before autumn. I will go back to the capital of Dayong with you. We must get married before the end of the year.”

"puff!"

As soon as Emperor Beizun finished speaking, Lord Sikong immediately spat out the mouthful of wine he had just drunk!

Fortunately, she was quick-witted and turned her head to the side in time, and then she coughed violently. Her beautiful, fair face turned red from holding it in. After a while, she finally calmed down and looked at Di Beizun beside her, only to find that Di Beizun was staring at her coldly with a dark face.

Lord Sikong immediately shuddered, hastily wiping his mouth with his sleeve, a hint of astonishment on his face. He murmured, "A wedding before the New Year...? Are you serious?"

She had never imagined she would ever get married, so the fact that this guy had put it on the agenda was quite a shock to her.

"I remember telling you this before, Sikong Jin. It seems you haven't taken my words to heart at all!"

Di Beizun's tone was somewhat cold.
