Chapter 79 Come with me to Dragon City



"Come inside later, I need to see how you two behave," Jiang Tian said with a wicked grin.

Fairy Miao Miao lowered her head instantly, her face flushed.

Qin Hongyu, however, acted with composure and grace: "Since we are the young master's little maids, it is our honor if the young master is willing to do anything for us."

“You’re on the right track…” Jiang Tian reached out and lifted Qin Hongyu’s chin. “If you behave well, you’ll be a good girl.”

…………

Longcheng County Government Office.

Nangong Qianyu, this little girl, got up very early.

"Wife, you're working too hard every day." Jiang Tian had already ordered someone to prepare a soup made with thousand-year-old ginseng and old hen.

"Brother, I've been drinking ginseng soup, and my body is almost fully recovered." The little girl frowned as she looked at the thousand-year-old ginseng and old hen soup in front of her.

Even the most exquisite delicacies would become tiresome after eating them for so long.

"Eat this bowl first, then we'll talk."

Jiang Tian personally served the bowl of ginseng chicken soup to Nangong Qianyu.

The little girl nodded.

"There's no need to be so concerned about the trial; I'll find someone to handle it for you."

"Brother, it's alright, I'm not tired." After taking a few sips, the little girl put down the bowl. "Brother, you will be a man who can look down on the world in the future."

I still dream of becoming your virtuous wife in the future.

This young girl's thoughts.

“There’s no need for that with me.” Jiang Tian reached out and pinched Nangong Qianyu’s rosy cheeks. Nangong Qianyu’s face was much rosier than before. “I’ll take care of working hard outside, and you just need to be beautiful.”

Nangong Qianyu grasped Jiang Tian's hands and pressed them tightly against her face: "I know how much you love me, but I don't want to be a useless person."

"Then you don't need to work too hard. I'm afraid your body can't handle hearing dozens of cases a day."

"It's alright, my dear brother. I can't stay idle; I feel uneasy when I'm idle."

Jiang Tian stood up.

"Luo Xiaohu, tell those yamen runners outside to send fewer people to file complaints, so as not to tire out Miss Qianyu."

"promise……"

Nangong Qianyu slowly stood up: "Big brother, the cases I handle are all very simple, and I don't need to put any effort into them at all."

"Um……"

Jiang Tian changed into casual clothes and walked out of the county government office.

Luo Xiaohu quickly followed.

"Luo Xiaohu, have Xiang Yu lead 100 cavalrymen to wait for me at the city gate."

"promise……"

"Let Xiang Yu and his men not wear armor, just civilian clothes will suffice."

"promise……"

Nangong Qianyu stepped forward and helped Jiang Tian straighten his clothes: "Is Dalang going on another long journey? There's chaos and war outside, I'm worried."

"I'm going to Flying Fox City. No one in this world who can hurt me has been born yet."

...

Flying Fox City is one of the three major cities that are relatively close to Dragon City.

More than 100 people marched in a grand procession along the official road straight to Flying Fox City.

"Xiang Yu, today we will take Feihu City. You will lead your men to garrison Feihu City."

"My lord, what about Dragon City?"

"I have already sent someone to inform Dian Wei that he is currently suppressing bandits near Peach Blossom Village."

Dian Wei headed straight for Longcheng.

"Yes..." Xiang Yu quickly said, "I wonder who Dian Wei is? I have never met him before, what are his abilities?"

"Dian Wei was a man of unparalleled martial prowess, and was known as the Ancient Evil Lai."

Upon hearing this, Xiang Yu immediately became interested.

"I wonder how Dian Wei compares to me."

"When can you two have a match? But I don't think Dian Wei is a match for you."

Xiang Yu wanted to experience firsthand the prowess of Dian Wei, who was known as the "Ancient Evil One."

On the official road in the distance.

A cloud of dust rose.

A dozen or so fast horses galloped quickly toward Flying Fox City.

Xiang Yu frowned upon seeing them: "Those are foreigners."

Jiang Tian also looked over.

Those people were all dressed in nomadic attire.

"Let's catch up and take a look."

As soon as Jiang Tian finished speaking, he lashed out with his riding whip.

With a long neigh, his warhorse galloped straight towards Flying Fox City.

The dozen or so horses in front were extremely fast.

Jiang Tian and his group hurriedly caught up with these people at the gate of Flying Fox City.

There were still many local people standing at the city gate.

These people lined up to enter the city.

The soldiers at the city gate rigorously checked the passing civilians.

These ordinary people had to show everything they carried with them to the soldiers.

A villager pushing a wheelbarrow was stopped. "What's on your cart?"

"Reporting to the commander, the carts are loaded with grain."

The wheelbarrow was pushing two burlap sacks, which were bulging with contents.

Without hesitation, the soldier swung his spear and stabbed it into the sack.

Immediately afterwards, he yanked the spear outwards.

A rustling sound rang out.

The rice grains inside the sack flowed out like water.

The people were heartbroken when they saw this, and they quickly knelt down and raised their hands to block the flowing rice.

“How dare a troublemaker have so much grain? Your grain has been confiscated by the government.” The soldier waved behind him.

Two soldiers rushed over quickly and pushed the cart to the side.

Upon seeing this, the common people quickly blocked the way for the soldiers.

"Sir, please have mercy! I borrowed this grain from the countryside. I have an 80-year-old mother and a baby crying for food. They are all counting on this grain."
