Chapter 187 Strong Marriage
As Mu Xiliang said, since he left, the border has been in flames of war.

It is said that it was the Northern Courtyard who opened fire first. They attacked in the middle of the night and bombarded one of the opponent's arsenal, causing countless casualties.

The Nanfang Courtyard was not a vegetarian either. When they heard about the sneak attack, they sent troops to occupy a small town on the border without saying a word, and killed hundreds of guards in the town.

The situation was so bad from the start that it was impossible to negotiate.

Besides, there have long been war factions in the northern and southern courts demanding national unification, but there is no opportunity or excuse to start the war first.

This is just great.

The fight on the border is in full swing, and I heard that Xue Shaochen has also gone.

Because of the matter of Yu Tingen and Gui Shizhen before, people's hearts were a little fluctuating. When they heard that there was going to be a war, all the warlords shrank back. They could promise you any conditions, but they just couldn't send troops.

Therefore, Mu Xiliang went early.

Many people joked that although Mu Xiliang was talented, but faced with the overwhelming army from the southern court, just he and Xue Shaochen, if there was any difference, they would lose their power, humiliate the country, and be annexed by the other party.

For a moment, it seemed that even the air tensed up.

And the most nervous one is probably Fang Meijing.

She was capricious for a while and lost her position, and Mu Xiliang probably didn't intend to let her go back, so she had already found someone to take her place.

Now that Mu Xiliang is on the front line, she has no information on whether he is safe or not. Coupled with the previous events, Fang Meijing has lost a lot of weight.

Ever since Mu Xiliang went to the front line, Fang Meijing hasn't had a good time going out.

Fang Chengye was a little worried. After breakfast, he watched his daughter go upstairs silently, and looked at Qiao Nanyi, "What's wrong with Meijing, are you still sad about resignation?"

Qiao Nanyi sighed, and said, "Mei Jing is a proud person, how can she bear Mu Xiliang's negligence. It is understandable to act aggressively on impulse. But I think, the attitude of the young and old towards Mei Jing There are some problems. The reason why Meijing dared to resign is because before, whenever she said she wanted to leave, the young master would try her best to keep her. The young master and Meijing have always been very good. I don’t understand why the young master suddenly seems to have changed. A person?"

Fang Chengye thought for a while, and said, "Is it because of that girl named Yuan Xiang?"

Qiao Nanyi glared at Fang Chengye coquettishly, said, "You really have no eyesight", and then went upstairs.Fang Chengye was taken aback, and hurried to catch up.

When they arrived at Qiao Nanyi's room, Fang Chengye asked, "What do you mean by that? Did I say something wrong?"

Qiao Nanyi sat on the bed and tidied up his clothes while saying, "At least you have met Yuan Xiang several times. With her alone, how can you shake Mei Jing's position?? This person is someone else."

Fang Chengye thought for a while, his eyes lit up, "You mean, that Miss Fu??"

Qiao Nanyi said, "She said she was the young master's younger sister, but the relationship between her and the young master has always been unclear. The young master has made Meijing angry several times because of her. If it wasn't for her, it would have been because of Meijing and the young master for so many years. How could the young master treat her like this?"

Fang Chengye didn't speak immediately.

He frowned and thought for a long time before he said uncertainly, "But I heard that the young lady is already engaged to the eldest son of Qingcheng Governor."

Qiao Nanyi glanced at him and said nothing, Fang Chengye immediately became serious.

"Although I don't have much contact with this Miss Fu, she already has a boyfriend, and she is still so ambiguous with her brother. This kind of behavior is not a good girl."

Qiao Nanyi sighed, "I don't know if it's easy to do or not. She once threatened me to stay away from the elders. It's ridiculous. Although I, Qiao Nanyi, am poor, I am such a self-willed and lowly woman? !"

As she spoke, her eyes turned red, and Fang Chengye felt pain in his heart, so he walked up to her and sat down next to her.

"You are wronged, I know you are not that kind of girl."

Fang Chengye grabbed her shoulders and coaxed her in a low voice. Qiao Nanyi sniffled, smiled and shook his head, "I'm not wronged, I just need to be myself, don't worry."

She pretended to be strong, Fang Chengye felt pity and tenderness in his heart, he couldn't help stretching out his hand to caress her chin, looked into her eyes and said, "In my heart, you are the best girl in the world, even if you are the best girl in the world, you are the best girl in the world." Beautiful words are not enough to describe you."

Qiao Nanyi's face turned red, and his eyes became more charming.

Fang Chengye relied on her so much that he could smell the good smell on her body.

"What kind of fragrance are you wearing? Why have I never smelled this perfume before?"

Qiao Nanyi let out a chuckle, "When did you see me wearing perfume?? I see you, you are just sweet-mouthed, trying to please me on purpose."

After a pause, she pushed him, "For Meijing, you have to think of a way. Look at how many days it's been, and Meijing is so skinny. I'm so anxious, but I can't do anything for her. Are you Her father is now her only family member, you can't ignore it."

Fang Chengye stared at her for a while, then suddenly laughed.

"You look like a mother like this. If you are nagging like this, don't you want to get married?!"

Qiao Nanyi was taken aback, his face flushed red.

"You, what are you talking about!! I, I just care about Meijing, why is she a mother, why is she getting married!!"

As she spoke, she stood up, panicked.

Fang Chengye was just teasing her, but seeing her flustered now, he felt distressed and blamed himself for making a joke, and then stretched out his hand and pulled her to sit down again.

"Okay, no kidding,"

Fang Chengye thought for a while, and said, "In the past, Meijing's mother took care of these things, but now you want me to find a way, and I can't think of a good way for a while."

Qiao Nanyi pursed his lips and smiled, "I have an idea, do you want to listen?"

Fang Chengye nodded, "Say it."

"You can go directly to play the violin with Governor Mu."

Fang Chengye was taken aback.

"Propose marriage??"

"That's right," Qiao Nanyi said eagerly, "You are the young master's savior, Meijing and the Mu family are also very close, and besides, the young master and Meijing are not young, so it is logical for you to propose marriage."

Fang Chengye frowned.

"Proposing marriage... is not impossible, but what if he refuses? The Mu family is not an ordinary family."

"But you are not an ordinary person. What do you want to use those thousands of dollars of wealth for? It's not for Meijing. In today's war, which warlord doesn't want to dominate one side, but it needs money. You have money, Mu Dujun has power, Besides, you have a very wide network in Chengzhou, if you marry Meijing, it will be like a tiger with wings added, I think the marriage of a powerful family is not just the plan?"

After a pause, Qiao Nanyi's eyes softened, "Besides, Meijing really likes the young master. In Huaxia, there are very few girls like Meijing with excellent conditions. It is also a blessing for the Mu family that Meijing can fall in love with the young master." .”

After saying these words, Fang Chengye's heart suddenly became alive.

"But...", he still had doubts in his heart, "What if the young master doesn't agree?"

Qiao Nanyi glared at him, "It's the order of the parents and the words of the matchmaker. Even in the new society, don't we talk about filial piety? As long as the warlord agrees, we get married and slowly develop feelings, let alone with Meijing's ability, Still can't make the eldest and younger fall in love with her? You, you have too little confidence in your daughter."

Fang Chengye didn't speak for a long time.

He walked back and forth in the room for a few steps, and said, "This is a big matter, I have to think it over carefully, if I want to go, I have to be fully sure to finalize the marriage."

"That's right," Qiao Nanyi stood up from the bed, walked up to him and looked up at him, "You still have to think about what to say. Although some words are not pleasant to listen to, in Mu Dujun's eyes, this is probably more like a It's a deal, you exchange your wealth for your daughter's lifelong happiness. If Governor Mu thinks this deal is feasible, he will naturally nod his head in agreement. So if you go, you have to go on the road of deal."

Fang Chengye frowned unconsciously.

He didn't like to hear about the deal, but what Qiao Nanyi said was right, he really wanted to exchange Wanguan's wealth for his daughter's happiness.

Then let's discuss the matter.

The atmosphere suddenly fell silent.

Qiao Nanyi looked at Fang Chengye carefully, and said, "You know, I don't know much, and I don't read much. Although I really think about Meijing's words today, if you don't like it, just pretend I didn't say it. I don't mean anything malicious, I, I'm just anxious, I feel uncomfortable seeing Meijing like that."

As she spoke, her eye circles turned red again.

Fang Chengye panicked, and quickly supported her by the shoulders, "What are you talking about? How could I not know your thoughts? If you say that I am Meijing's only relative in this world, then you are the one who cares about her the most. Wake up, I am ashamed."

Sighing, Fang Chengye said solemnly, "Nan Yi, I know you are a good girl. I used to think that it was wrong for me to occupy you at such an age. I also wanted to stay away from you, but when I saw you, I would control you." Can't help, you are so beautiful and so simple, how can I be willing to stay away from you? Nanyi, I like you, I like you very much, I am fascinated by it, you know?"

The blush on Qiao Nanyi's face was as bright as a cloud of clouds, and she raised her eyes slightly, ashamed.

"I, I am all yours, and you still say such things!"

Speaking of this, Fang Chengye immediately remembered that night, he couldn't help touching her face and was about to kiss her, Qiao Nanyi hurriedly put his hand on his chest.

"What are you doing in broad daylight!"

She looked at him coquettishly, and pushed him out, "The most important thing right now is Meijing's affairs. You should quickly find a way to settle the marriage before Mu Xiliang comes back."

Fang Chengye was pushed out of the door by her. He looked at her beautiful face, even though his heart was about to move, but she was right, the most important thing at the moment was the matter of Meijing.

Fang Chengye couldn't help sighing, and pinched Qiao Nanyi's nose.

"Okay, I'm leaving, you, you are such a tormenting little fairy."
