Chapter 185 Zhang Shicheng's arrogance and stubbornness led to this disastrous defeat.



Jiang Tian walked up to the Flower Goddess and whispered in the girl's ear: "If love between two people lasts forever, why should they be together day and night? One life, one love, one pair of lovers, how can they be separated in two places?"

Upon hearing this, the Flower Goddess's eyes immediately filled with tears: "Brother, I was ignorant. From now on, I will never show my face in public again."

"Brother, no matter when you come to find me, I'll be waiting for you."

"I originally wanted to redeem you, but Hongxiuzhao is now mine. You can live however you want in Hongxiuzhao."

Red is the love nest I built for you.

"If anyone dares to bully you, I'll twist their head off."

The Flower Goddess wept, her tears falling on her clothes: "My dear brother, I'm leaving now. I'll be with you for life... I'm not like those ordinary beauties."

I will always have a place in Dalang's heart.

But my eldest son occupies every place in my heart.

The Flower Goddess boarded the carriage and headed straight for the Red Sleeve Pavilion.

Seeing that the Flower Goddess had left, the other top courtesans also retreated one after another.

In the corner, Shangguan Wan'er and the dozen or so palace ladies around her silently watched everything unfold.

"Lord Shangguan, what kind of person is Jiang Tian? Those girls who just passed by were clearly prostitutes."

"How could Jiang Tian be involved with a courtesan?"

"His Majesty would not favor such a person. His Majesty's reputation would be tarnished by associating with such a person."

Shangguan Wan'er shook her head.

Those courtesans were all exceptionally beautiful.

However, Jiang Tian ignored them and only spoke a few words to the Flower Goddess.

As for what was said, Shangguan Wan'er didn't hear it at all.

"A man who isn't a bit of a playboy in his youth is wasting his life," Shangguan Wan'er said softly. "Besides, I don't see anything wrong with Young Master Jiang having so many female confidantes."

"Yue'er, let's find a place to stay." Shangguan Wan'er looked into the distance.

"yes……"

…………

Jiang Tian had just pushed open the back gate.

Nangong Qianyu, this little girl, flew over like a happy little bird.

The little girl leaped and jumped directly into Jiang Tian's arms, wrapping her long, beautiful legs around his waist.

Her delicate, pink arm draped around Jiang Tian's neck.

"My lord, I have been waiting day and night for you, and finally you have come." At this point, the young girl burst into tears.

"Come, come, don't cry, don't cry." Jiang Tian took out a handkerchief and wiped the little girl's tears. "I'm back now, aren't I?"

"I don't know why, but I just want to cry."

The two people went inside.

Looking at the table full of dishes, Jiang Tian couldn't help but give Nangong Qianyu a thumbs up.

However, neither of them was in the mood for eating.

Absence makes the heart grow fonder.

It wasn't a short separation for them; it was a long-awaited reunion.

The dry wood caught fire instantly, burning brighter and brighter until it quickly spread like wildfire.

An hour later, Jiang Tian was as soft as a lump of mud, while Nangong Qianyu, the young girl, was radiant and full of energy.

"My lord, you should get up and eat something before you go back to sleep."

"I don't want to eat, I just want to sleep for a while. Can you talk to me for a bit?" Jiang Tian lay on the bed.

"My lord, I have already compiled a count of the total population of the three cities of Longcheng."

The young girl looked delighted: "If you include all the elderly, weak, women and children in the three cities of Longcheng, there are 2 million."

Among them, the number of young and middle-aged laborers is 300,000.

However, countless people continued to arrive from all parts of the Great Xia Dynasty.

Jiang Tian lay on the bed, his hands supporting his chin: "I already spoke to Han Xin today. I told him to take Ji Province for me while he's suppressing the rebels."

"After taking Ji Province, we'll take Qing Province. Of the nine provinces and thirteen provinces in the world, I estimate that by the end of the year, Jiang Tian will be able to control two provinces."

The young girl was thrilled to hear this: "I heard that there are more than 10 million people at just two tables in Jizhou and Qingzhou alone."

"Looks like I, the Dragon King, still have a lot to work on. A population of over 10 million!" Before Jiang Tian could finish speaking, Nangong Qianyu peeled two grapes and stuffed them into Jiang Tian's mouth.

Jiang Tian opened the system space and navigated to the system farm.

In the past few days, the system farm, ranch, orchard, and medicinal herb field have all expanded dozens of times compared to their original size.

Suddenly, Jiang Tian saw a dark patch at the end of the ranch.

Jiang Tian quickly shifted his gaze over there.

Could this be black soil?

Jiang Tian's system farm has already produced an astonishing amount of output.

Moreover, the typical area of ​​this system has also increased considerably.

Even without those farmlands outside the city, Jiang Tian's system farms would be enough to feed millions of people.

After all, the grains in his system farm mature every day.

Whether or not there is black soil is not that important to Jiang Tian.

[Host has misunderstood. That's not black soil; that's an oil field.]

Just then, a system notification sound came.

Jiang Tian was extremely excited after hearing this.

In accordance with the system's consistent practice.

What appears in the system first will soon appear in the real world.

For example, systems, farms, ranches, orchards, wells, and rivers.

The farms, ranches, wells, rivers in the real world... are not as good as those in the system.

However, it is far superior to other lands in the real world.

A large oil field appeared on the edge of the system ranch, and it was an exposed oil field.

This means that after a period of time, Jiang Tian will be able to exchange the oil fields in the system for a certain amount of rage points and put them into the real world.

That makes things much more interesting.

Song Yingxing and his group should arrive in Longcheng soon.

It seems the system wants Jiang Tian to skip the steam engine and go straight to making an engine.

"Wow, system, I absolutely love you!" Jiang Tian couldn't help but shout as he glanced at the notification.

[The system has a 2-acre oilfield, producing 500 barrels of high-quality oil per day]

That's 500 barrels a day, so that's 5,000 barrels in ten days.

Moreover, this oil field system will continue to expand over time.

This is as fun as you want it to be.

The oil produced by the system's oil field is of high quality, estimated to be much better than the open-pit oil field seen in the Xiongnu territory.

Nangong Qianyu was startled by Jiang Tian's sudden shout: "Husband, what did you just shout?"

Jiang Tian then realized what was happening and quickly smiled at Nangong Qianyu, saying, "Qianyu, I just said I love you to death."

Nangong Qianyu blushed instantly: "I know, there's no need to make a fuss about it."

"I'm going to shout it out loud, Qianyu, I like you, I love you to death."

…………

Li Chuang's military camp.

"What..." Li Chuang slammed his hand on the table and stood up. "Zhang Shicheng has been killed? Is the news reliable?"

"Reporting to the King, the news is very reliable. It was sent by the Grand Secretary." Li Sangui, the deputy general, presented Pang Hao's letter with both hands.

Li Chuang read the letter several times: "Zhang Shicheng was self-righteous and stubborn, which is why he suffered such a disastrous defeat."
