Subsequently, things developed as Xiang Nan expected.
The Mongolian army's food and grass were burned, and hundreds of thousands of troops were unable to fight anymore. Coupled with the capture of their coach, they were helpless, so they had to temporarily retreat and negotiate peace with the Song Dynasty in exchange for the fourth prince Kublai Khan.
In the end, the Song Dynasty succeeded in begging for peace at the cost of 800,000 taels per year and ceding the territory north of the Jianghuai River.
Although Mongolia suffered a military defeat, it still looked like a victor. On the contrary, the Song Dynasty had a military victory, but in the end it had to cede territory and pay compensation.
When the news came, the heroes in Xiangyang cursed endlessly.
They risked their lives to win the battle, but the court was so incompetent, which was really despicable.
Xiang Nan also expected this result, so he returned to Zhongnan Mountain early.
…
In the next few years, Meng and Song Dynasty lived in peace, and it was rare to have a few pure days.
Over the past few years, Yang Xi and Wang Jian, a young general in Xiangyang City, developed a good impression of each other and told Xiang Nan, Li Mochou and others.
Li Mochou thought that Wang Jian was just a partial general with a low official position and weak skills, so he didn't like him very much.
But Xiang Nan thinks it's fine if her daughter likes it.
Moreover, he had met Wang Jian several times and felt that the young man was quite good, brave and good at fighting, brave and resourceful, and not incompetent, so he agreed.
Xiang Nan is the head of the family and enjoys authority in the family, so since he agreed, Li Mochou no longer objected, and Yang Xi and Wang Jian were successfully married.
Yang Xin was now grown up and his martial arts skills were quite impressive. When he came out to travel around the world, he became acquainted with He Zudao, a disciple of the Kunlun Sect.
Xiang Nan knew that He Zudao was a wonderful man. He had already made a name for himself in the Western Regions at a young age. After middle age, his martial arts improved greatly, and he was even known as the "Three Masters of Qin, Chess and Sword", so he was known as the "Three Saints of Kunlun".
Yang Xin marrying him would not be considered a stain on the lintel of the family.
It's just that both sisters are married, but Yang Guo's marriage has not been resolved for a long time.
In fact, there are many girls who want to marry him. After all, there are very few young heroes like him who are young and handsome, have a great reputation, and come from a good family background.
Guo Jing proposed to Xiang Nan many times that Guo Fu should be married to Yang Guo, but Xiang Nan never spoke up. He still hopes that Yang Guo will marry someone he loves.
But he was not in a hurry, but Mu Nianci was so anxious that she kept urging her son to get married early, which made Yang Guo frightened by her nagging. He wandered around the world all year round, unable to return home more than once.
…
"This is not an option for you. You are hiding here and there. Where can you hide? Are you going to never see your mother again in your life?" Xiang Nan found him and advised him, "What on earth are you thinking? To be honest, Just say you have a masculine style, and both dad and I can accept it."
When Yang Guo heard this, he felt embarrassed and wronged at the same time. He quickly waved his hand and said, "I'm not that kind of person. Dad, please don't think too much."
"You don't want me to think about it, then tell me, what are you doing hiding it?" Xiang Nan curled his lips, "You have been in the world for so many years and have seen so many women, I don't believe you haven't taken a fancy to any of them.
Or is it that the woman you like violates ethics and morals, so you never dare to say anything? "
When Yang Guo heard this, he was shocked. He didn't expect that his father was really smart. He hit the nail on the head.
"Is this really true?! You brat, who's idea did you get? If you dare to mess around, believe it or not, I will destroy you and deny you as my son from now on?" Xiang Nan grabbed Yang Guo's ear and said.
Although Yang Guo was now a top-notch master, comparable to Yin Kexi, Xiao Xiangzi and other famous figures in the world, he still couldn't dodge when Xiang Nan tried to pull his ear.
"Dad, even if you kill me, I can't say anything." Yang Guo said immediately.
"Since you are unwilling to take the initiative to say it, then I can only use the soul-moving fafa." Upon hearing this, Xiang Nan said quietly.
"Dad, don't force me." Yang Guo said helplessly.
"Come on, you know dad's character, so don't be so verbose." Xiang Nan glared at him.
"Then I said, you are not allowed to be angry, and you are not allowed to tell my mother." When Yang Guo saw this, he had to submit.
After all, he knew how powerful the Soul-Transferring Fa was, and when Xiang Nan used it, he would have to speak obediently and answer whatever he asked. At that point, there will really be no privacy at all.
"You tell me first, and then I decide whether to be angry or not." Xiang Nan nodded.
"Actually, I like Xiao Longnu." Yang Guo could only say embarrassedly.
When he was fourteen years old, he went on an adventure to the ancient tomb and met the little dragon girl. He swore that she was the most beautiful girl he had ever seen, and he was immediately attracted to her.
In the next few years, although he traveled around the world, he always went to the ancient tomb to see Xiao Longnu several times every year, and the relationship between the two became closer and closer.
Xiang Nan was stunned for a moment, then nodded, "Then how does she treat you?"
"Dad, you don't object?" Yang Guo asked in surprise.
"What's there to object to?" Xiang Nan pouted, "She has no blood relationship with you, and the man is unmarried and the woman is unmarried. As long as they are in love, they can get married."
"But, she and my second mother are of the same generation after all." Yang Guo added.
"What does that matter?" Xiang Nan said nonchalantly, "What [Heaven and Earth Lord, Prince and Master] are just some slanderous words. We are children of the world, not moral saints, so what do we care about?"
"Dad, do you really agree?" Yang Guo said in surprise. He didn't expect his father to be so open-minded.
"Of course I agree." Xiang Nan nodded, "But do people like you? Why don't you shave your head and pick a hot head?"
"Actually, she also likes me." Yang Guo said immediately after hearing this.
Although Xiao Longnu is nominally his elder, she grew up in an ancient tomb and knows nothing about the etiquette, laws and human relations of the world, so she does not regard herself as an elder.
In addition, she herself is cold on the outside and hot on the inside, while Yang Guo has inherited Xiang Nan's advantages of being versatile and chic, and his skills in flirting with girls are basically perfect.
So the two of them came and went and had feelings. It's just that Yang Guo was worried about Xiang Nan's objection, so he never dared to mention it, and he just carried out underground activities secretly.
"That's it." Xiang Nan nodded, "This marriage is all on dad. Even if her master objects, dad can help you."
In the book, Maid Lin was seriously injured by Ouyang Feng and died of her injuries. But now, Maid Lin is still alive, but she is already seventy years old.
"Thank you, dad." Yang Guo said happily.
…
Later, Xiang Nan took Yang Guo back home and told him everything about Xiao Longnu.
Mu Nianci, Li Mochou and Cheng Yaojia were all a little surprised when they heard that Yang Guo actually wanted to marry Xiao Longnu.
"Little Dragon Girl is Mo Chou's junior sister. If you marry her, you..." Mu Nianci almost stuttered with excitement. Isn't this against ethics?
"That's enough. As long as we are in love and don't hurt anyone else, why can't we be together?" Xiang Nan glared at them and said, "They are obviously heroines, but they all look like old masters. What else are you talking about? [Heaven and Earth] Master Jun? Why don’t you read this copy of "The Biography of the Martyr Woman"? "
"But if it spreads, Guo'er's reputation..." Mu Nianci still had some concerns.
"Don't worry, Xiao Longnu has never been around in the world, and very few people know her." Xiang Nan explained, "As long as we don't tell ourselves, who can outsiders know?"
