Chapter 18 I will definitely be able to fulfill this wish
-----
----------
Ever since he knew his true identity, a certain seemingly unrealistic idea immediately arose in Yang Xi's heart. This idea became more and more intense as the situation changed. To finally achieve this goal, just relying on an identity would be a long way to go.
It is not enough. The most important thing is to have your own strength and a group of people who loyally support and follow you.
After this counter-insurgency campaign, he has recruited many people under his command. Gao Shi, Pang Zhong, Liu Guangting and others can be said to be die-hard supporters. Wang Sili, Lu Chongben, Tian Liangqiu and others are loyal to him.
Although the degree is far from comparable to the previous ones, under certain circumstances, one would not rise up to oppose him, but would support him.
But this is far from enough. He also wants to recruit more people for his own use. One hero has three gangs.
Therefore, Gao Shi would find a way to arrange a ministry for anyone he recommended.
He also believed that those recommended by people like Gao Shi would definitely not be mediocre in talent and learning, but would always be capable.
With his efforts, Li Bai, who was originally in a state of poverty, was promoted to the post of director of the Arms Supervision, and was promoted to the eighth-rank position; Du Fu was changed to the position of Yuanwailang of the Ministry of Household Affairs, and was promoted from the sixth-rank position. Cen Shen was appointed to the Ministry of Armed Forces, also from the sixth-rank position.
A distinguished member of the Yuanwailang family.
Yang Xi's arrangement for these historical celebrities was mainly based on their life courses in the original history. To be honest, neither Li Bai nor Du Fu were outstanding in politics. They would be described as political novices.
It is not an exaggeration to say that their achievements are mainly in literature, but Yang Xi hopes that these people, who are already in their forties and fifties, can change and make some achievements after receiving his guidance.
After Yang Xi made arrangements for these people, his father Yang Guozhong sent people to Guo Mansion to propose marriage.
Guo Ziyi also fulfilled her promise to Yang Xi that day and agreed to the marriage.
Because Yang Yuhuan repeatedly stated it in front of Emperor Li Longji, Li Longji did not object to the marriage.
In the following time, the two houses are also making preparations for the wedding.
Preparations for the wedding were mainly handled by Guo Ziyi's wife Wang and Yang Xi's mother Pei Rou. As the parties involved, Yang Xi and Guo Xin didn't have much to do before the wedding.
Yang Xi didn't know much about ancient wedding etiquette, so he let his mother Pei Rou arrange it and did whatever she asked him to do.
After the marriage was settled, Guo Ziyi also regarded Yang Xi as his son-in-law. Of course, because of Yang Xi's outstanding military achievements in countering the rebellion and his huge influence in the court, Guo Ziyi must treat him in a different light.
"Ziliang, I have something to ask you today!"
One day, when Yang Xi went to visit Guo's house and took a look at his fiancée, he was called over by Guo Ziyi to ask about something.
"If you have anything to do with your father-in-law, please feel free to ask!" Guo Ziyi wanted to say something to herself, and of course Yang Xi was not surprised. "As long as my son-in-law knows anything, he will tell you everything."
"Let's go to the study to talk!" Guo Ziyi said, gestured to Yang Xi, and walked towards the study.
Yang Xi also agreed and immediately followed.
After the two came to the study, Guo Ziyi ordered the servant waiting outside, that is, his personal guard leader Guo Ming, to guard outside the study. No one was allowed to enter without his permission.
Guo Ziyi's instructions made Yang Xi immediately feel something unusual. As his prospective father-in-law, what he was going to say today was unusual.
"Ziliang, let's sit down and talk slowly!" Guo Ziyi seemed to feel that her actions confused Yang Xi. She smiled at Yang Xi and then said: "Actually, it's not much, but Xin'er is getting married.
It’s passed, there are some things I want to know about!”
Although Guo Ziyi said this, Yang Xi knew that this could only be regarded as an "opening", and what he was going to say next must be unusual. He suddenly thought of something, and there seemed to be a flash of inspiration in his mind. Guess
It’s time for Guo Ziyi to say something. But
He didn't take the initiative to say anything, but waited for Guo Ziyi's inquiry.
Guo Ziyi is a soldier. He is originally very straightforward. His many years of leadership experience has not changed his character. Moreover, he already regards Yang Xi as his son-in-law, so he directly asked the question he wanted to find out very much.
Question: "Ziliang, I want to ask you, are the rumors about your life experience true?"
"Why did my father-in-law suddenly ask this question?" Yang Xi asked rhetorically.
Just now, he suddenly remembered that Guo Xin asked him about his life experience, and he immediately guessed that Guo Liaoyi had called him to talk alone today, probably because he wanted to ask this question, so there was no surprise. But he still wanted to find out why Guo Ziyi
After agreeing to his marriage and preparing for the wedding, I suddenly asked this question.
Guo Ziyi was stunned for a moment. He didn't expect Yang Xi to ask him a question. After thinking for a moment, he answered: "I just want to make it clear. Xin'er wants to marry you, and I don't want to remain confused about this matter. I believe you are too.
If you know about this, I hope you can tell me in detail. Maybe I can help you with many things in the future!"
Hearing what Guo Ziyi said, Yang Xi was slightly surprised. Could it be that Guo Ziyi already knew a lot of things, even his relationship with Li Bin, otherwise, how could he say this?
Seeing the hesitation on Yang Xi's face, Guo Ziyi didn't press for anything, but just stared at Yang Xi, waiting for Yang Xi to answer his question.
Yang Xi hesitated for a moment, but decided to tell Guo Ziyi something, and then said softly: "Father-in-law, those rumors are indeed true."
"Oh!" After Guo Ziyi responded, he did not continue to ask, but listened quietly to Yang Xi's continued story.
"Xianggong Yang is not my biological father. I have confirmed this from my mother. I believe Xianggong Yang also knows this!"
"Oh, I didn't expect that to be true!" Guo Ziyi sighed softly and fell silent again.
Yang Xi didn't want to tell Guo Ziyi that he was Li Bin's son now. Guo Ziyi didn't ask, and he didn't say anything anymore, but sat quietly.
"No wonder His Highness Prince Yan trusted you so much when he attacked Luoyang!"
Guo Ziyi's sudden words surprised Yang Xi again. As long as he was not too stupid, he would immediately understand what Guo Ziyi meant by these words.
It turns out that Guo Ziyi had already guessed that he was Li Bin's biological son, and today he just wanted to confirm it. However, Guo Ziyi did not say it clearly. He did not elaborate further.
"Ziliang, I heard there were rumors in the court that the emperor was going to depose the crown prince. I believe you have heard about it too!" Guo Ziyi was a little dissatisfied that Yang Xi didn't explain the matter to him in detail, but she still told him that today
The most important thing to say came out, "I want to ask you today, if the prince is deposed, which prince do you think is the most suitable to be established as the prince?"
Guo Ziyi had already spoken to this extent. Why did Yang Xi dare not respond? He quickly stood up and saluted Guo Ziyi and said: "Father-in-law, I believe you have guessed that Yan Wangjun is my biological father. King Yan is here
The first time I asked for orders to go on an expedition, I naturally went there to improve my reputation and obtain the position of crown prince. If Prince Heng is deposed as crown prince, then the person my son-in-law wants to support must be Wang Yan!"
"Have you already discussed this matter?" Guo Ziyi continued to ask expressionlessly.
Yang Xi hesitated for a moment and then told the real situation: "Yes, my father-in-law and son-in-law discussed this matter with His Highness Prince Yan."
"He promised you that if he was made the crown prince and eventually succeeded to the throne as the emperor, he would recognize you and make you the crown prince of the Tang Dynasty?" Although Guo Ziyi asked this question calmly,
But there were wild waves in his heart, and the situation was indeed similar to his wildest guess. It was even crazier than he thought.
Yang Xi still hesitated for a moment before replying: "Yes, father-in-law. His Highness Prince Yan said so!"
"You believe it?"
"I believe he thinks so now, but I don't know what he will think in the future!"
"Oh?!" After Guo Ziyi thought for a moment, he understood what Yang Xi meant, and still asked calmly: "Ziliang, since you know this, what do you think?"
"I hope Yanwang Bin can be established as the crown prince!"
"You really think so?"
"Yes," Yang Xi nodded, "I believe His Highness Prince Yan will eventually fulfill his promise!"
"You covet the throne of the Tang Dynasty?" Guo Ziyi's eyes became sharp, and his tone of voice unconsciously became heavier.
"My father-in-law, I'm not coveting you, but I feel that if I were to govern the Tang Dynasty, the Tang Dynasty would definitely be much better than it is now, and it would definitely be a hundred times stronger than it is now. No foreign enemy can threaten the Tang Dynasty!" Yang
Xi said, looking at Guo Ziyi very proudly, "So as long as there is an opportunity, I will fight for it. I hope to use my intelligence and talent to bring prosperity to the world and bring happiness to the people."
Guo Ziyi was very surprised by Yang Xi's arrogance and didn't know what to say. But in the end, he thought about it and asked seriously: "Ziliang, have you ever thought about the difficulty and danger in this?"
"I have thought about it, but I think that as long as King Yan becomes the prince and eventually the emperor, everything will not be a problem!"
"Are you saying that as long as Yanwang Bin becomes the emperor, he will definitely pass the throne to you?"
"That's not!" Yang Xi shook his head very firmly, "This is just what King Yan has agreed to now, but I believe he must have said this just to gain my support! He became the crown prince and eventually ascended the throne.
The Queen will definitely not fulfill her promise, and will even try to get rid of me!"
Yang Xi's words made Guo Ziyi's heart skip a beat, and he relaxed a little from his worry, but still asked in confusion: "Ziliang, since you have thought of this, why do you still support him as the prince?"
?If you support another prince to become the crown prince, then no matter who it is, as long as you don't show off, there will definitely be no threat. Only if King Yan becomes emperor, will your life be in danger?"
"But if someone else becomes the prince, I have no hope of realizing what I just said and bringing the greatest welfare to the people of the world!" Yang Xi said, stood up, ignored Guo Ziyi's surprise, and lowered his voice and said: "Father-in-law
, you believe me, as long as you support me, I will definitely be able to realize this wish. King Yan is an easy man to manipulate! I hope Xin'er can eventually become the queen of the Tang Dynasty!"
