Chapter 9: Scruples
―― In the end, Yang Xi took Guo Xin to a restaurant that belonged to his own industry.
After arriving at the restaurant, Yang Xi ignored everyone's side eyes, took Guo Xin's hand, who looked embarrassed, and went up to a luxurious private room on the second floor.
As soon as he entered the private room, Yang Xi kicked the door with his foot, quickly hugged Guo Xin in his arms, and kissed him desperately.
When he met Guo Xin, Yang Xi felt that he really missed this little beauty very much. It's not that he hasn't thought about going to find Guo Xin in the past few days, it's just that because of the fact that he has too much to do, he can't spare time at all. Guo Xin's aggrieved appearance just now made Yang Xi feel distressed, and when the two ran all the way, they snuggled together again, all of which completely stimulated the feelings hidden in Yang Xi's heart.
Guo Xin didn't expect Yang Xi to be so "anxious" and struggled desperately, but Yang Xi had no intention of giving up, holding her face and kissing her very domineeringly. In the end, Guo Xin only struggled for a while and gave up, and after kissing Yang Xi for a while, he suddenly reached out to hug Yang Xi, and hugged it very tightly, making Yang Xi feel breathless.
The mouths of the two were completely kissed together, and they hugged each other very tightly, the airways seemed to be compressed, and the heartbeat was very fast, and the air supply was insufficient, resulting in wheezing. The two kissed breathlessly for a while, and when Yang Xi couldn't help but stretch out his clutches and was about to do some aggression, Guo Xin came back to his senses and broke free.
Yang Xi didn't expect Guo Xin to slip away from his arms at a critical time, so he didn't guard against it, but he didn't follow her over and hug her again and make love again, but looked at the red-faced Guo Xin there with a smile to sort out the clothes that were messed up by him.
"Qi Niang, did you want to kill me just now?" When Guo Xin was hurriedly tidying up his clothes, Yang Xi walked over, pulled his mouth and asked with a smile: "Qi Niang, do you know, I almost frightened me just now, if you don't take you so scary, rush over and stop me, and shed tears without saying a word!"
"You're making fun of people again!" Guo Xin couldn't help but get annoyed again, rushed over, stretched out his little fist and hit Yang Xi, "Who told you to go back to Chang'an and didn't come to me for so many days, and you didn't give a letter!"
Yang Xi didn't dodge, let Guo Xin beat her, and finally hugged her in his arms again, "Qi Niang, I didn't say it, it's very busy these days, military affairs have to be handed over, and there are new positions to be handed over, I believe that your father, who became the prime minister, is also so busy." ”
"I know you're busy, but I still hope that when you're busy, you can think of me, come to me, or at least make someone say something!" Guo Xin was in Yang Xi's arms, and said faintly, "But after waiting for a few days, I can't wait, and today I found out that you are busy and ready to go home, so I came to block the road, and I want to ask you what's going on!"
Guo Xin is a person with a straight surname, and she can't hide any unhappiness in her heart, although she knows that Yang Xi is very busy these days, but no matter how busy Yang Xi is, she also hopes to think of her, come to see her, or send a message or something.
But Yang Xi didn't have any letters, which made her very disappointed, and finally couldn't help it and took the initiative to find Yang Xi. She was afraid that Yang Xi would not be ready to pay attention to her, so when she saw Yang Xi, she didn't know what to say, she just felt very wronged and couldn't help crying.
"It's my negligence, I should write a letter to you, tell you about the situation, say hello or something!" Yang Xi explained embarrassedly: "Actually, I thought that after returning to Beijing, your father would say something to you." Because when I was in Luoyang, I had already told him about the matter between you and me, and I even proposed to him in person!"
"Ahh Hearing Yang Xi say this, Guo Xin was shocked and Ji'er was ashamed, but he couldn't help the curiosity in his heart and asked Yang Xi: "Shilang, are you ...... Did you really tell my father about us and propose to him in person? ”
This news came too suddenly, a little unacceptable to her, and Yang Xi was too ...... Directly, she even told her father about it. It's strange that my father didn't tell her about it when he came home!
"Daddy he...... Didn't tell me anything!" Guo Xin had a bad feeling in her heart, she wouldn't have her father disagreeing with this family business, otherwise she wouldn't have been indifferent, and hurriedly asked: "Shiro, what did he say when you told your father about this?" ”
"At that time, the war had just ended, and he didn't say much, only said that he would talk about it when he returned to Chang'an!" Yang Xi smiled at Guo Xin and comforted: "Qi Niang, don't worry, your father should agree." ”
Yang Xi said quite confidently, he believed that Guo Ziyi should not refuse this marriage.
In the past few days, Yang Xi has communicated a lot with Yang Guozhong, and he has also understood some things, especially Guo Ziyi's honor to enter the political hall this time.
Guo Ziyi's ability to enter the political hall is not unrelated to Yang Guozhong's repeated praise in front of Emperor Li Longji.
Guo Ziyi's ability is good, he performed very well in the counterinsurgency war, his military achievements are outstanding, and he has been praised by Yang Guozhong, and Gao Lishi is also quite praised by Guo Ziyi, and finally Li Longji decided to make up for his entry into the political hall.
I believe Guo Ziyi also knows this, if there is no Yang Guozhong's expression, Guo Ziyi will definitely not have a chance to enter the political hall.
Because of this, Yang Xi is confident that he will come to propose marriage, and Guo Ziyi should not refuse. After all, his performance in this counterinsurgency campaign can be described as very good. Which family is a parent, and doesn't want their daughter to marry an excellent husband, a good young man with great potential like him, who wants to marry his woman, I don't know how many there are in the whole Chang'an City.
However, Guo Ziyi's appointment made Yang Xi a little worried.
His father Yang Guozhong is the prime minister, and now Guo Ziyi is also in the political hall, so if he wants to marry Guo Xin, that is, the two prime ministers are married. If Li Longji knew about this, knew that he wanted to marry Guo Xin, and then awarded Guo Ziyi as a minister, what would it mean? Maybe they will stop it when they know about it.
If it is not stopped, it is likely to reduce Yang Guozhong's power, and it is not even necessary to remove the minister.
Yang Guozhong has been in charge of the government for too long, and he is a sworn enemy with Li Heng, and the relationship with Gao Lishi is not very good. Because of this, Yang Xi was still a little worried about the marriage between himself and Guo Xin, but now he didn't dare to say his worries, even the slightest worry, he would do it through his own efforts.
Since you are confident to succeed, don't let a woman like Guo Xin worry.
Listening to Yang Xi's confidence, Guo Xin's worries were also eliminated by half, and he snuggled into Yang Xi's arms, and didn't speak, just leaned quietly.
Yang Xi didn't say anything anymore, just gently stroked Guo Xin's head and her shoulders, expressing her emotions with body movements.
After a long while, Yang Xi said softly: "Qi Niang, in two days, when I am free, I will definitely visit your parents and explain this to them." I will also ask my father to come to the door as soon as possible, so that your parents will not allow you to give you to others. ”
Yang Xi said, hehe smiled and pinched Guo Xin's nose, and said with a smile: "Such a beautiful beauty, how can my son be willing to let you marry someone else!"
"Nasty!" Guo Xin wrinkled his nose dissatisfied, but he was happy in his heart.
"Qi Niang, it's not early today, the door will be closed later, you go back to the house first," Seeing that the weather outside was not early, Yang Xi also said helplessly: "If it's late, you won't be able to go back to the house." In this way, after a few days, I will take you to find a place to have a good time and compensate you!"
"Alright then!" Guo Xin was also a little helpless, and reluctantly got up from Yang Xi's arms, "Then I can wait for you to come to see me, waiting for you to come and ask me, you can't be untrustworthy!"
"How so!" Yang Xi kissed Guo Xin on the face again, "Even if someone forces me not to come to you with a knife, I won't agree!"
"Hmph, who knows!" Guo Xin glanced at Yang Xi, and immediately showed a bright smile, "Then you have to talk about it!" ――
In the Daiguo Mansion, in the study, Guo Ziyi was discussing court affairs with several sons.
Guo Ziyi never expected that after returning to the dynasty, he would be awarded the post of secretary of the military department and selected for the political hall.
Good things came too suddenly, he was not mentally prepared at all, and his heart was beating. After finishing these few days, I had time to go home, and I also gathered a few more sensible sons to discuss things.
While he was talking, he heard a report from someone outside: "Master, Yang Xianggong's fourth son, Yang Xi, is visiting!"
"Yang Xi is visiting?" Guo Ziyi and several sons looked at each other, unexpectedly that just a few days after returning to Chang'an, Yang Xi actually came to visit the house.
Guo Ziyi also immediately understood the purpose of Yang Xi's visit, immediately stopped the discussion, and instructed his subordinates: "Quickly invite Yang Gongzi into the house!"
"Father, will Yang Gongzi's visit this time be to remind you of marrying the seventh sister again?" When Guo Ziyi was about to go out to greet him, Guo Xi couldn't help but say the guess in his heart.
Guo Ziyi stopped, thought about it, and nodded: "It is very likely that Yang Xi mentioned this matter to his father when he was in Luoyang, and directly expressed that he wanted to marry Xin'er as his wife, but when he said that he was a father, he didn't promise him anything, presumably he came here for this matter." ”
"Father, if Yang Gongzi makes this request and asks someone to come to the door to propose marriage, will my father agree or not?" Guo Xi asked again.
When the war had not subsided, Guo Xi had suggested to Guo Ziyi that Guo Xin marry Yang Xi as his wife, and climb Yang Guozhong, a powerful minister, to strive for more benefits for the Guo family, but Guo Ziyi did not object at that time. Now that the matter is coming, Guo Xi wants to know what his father's attitude is.
Guo Ziyi groaned and didn't answer immediately, but Guo Xi's eldest brother Guo Yao couldn't help but speak: "Father, now that you are in the political hall, you don't need to ask Yang Guogong for anything, according to the child, it's better not to agree to this family business." Father thought about it, if he agreed to this family affair and formed a family with his father and Yang Xianggong, the emperor would definitely scruple about it, and maybe his father's position would not be secured, and he would be dismissed. Father, for the sake of the future of the Guo family, the child still thinks it's better not to agree to this family business!"
"Don't say this in advance, after the father talks to Yang Xi, let's discuss it again!" Guo Ziyi said, and walked out of the study. (To be continued.) )
