—— I don't know if it's because of Yang Guozhong's notoriety in history, or because of other reasons, Yang Xi always feels that if he really wants to achieve great things, it is impossible to succeed by relying on Yang Guozhong. To a certain extent, his father is a "pig teammate".

Yang Guozhong's notoriety in the court is too great, his son has made such great achievements, and many people still "look at him differently" because of Yang Guozhong, and regard him as a person who destroys evil, even if some people admire his ability to befriend him, but they will not treat him sincerely.

This is something that cannot be changed, he has been firmly labeled as "Yang Guozhong's son", even if there is no blood relationship, it is difficult to change. But Yang Xi didn't feel too much frustration about this, on the contrary, he felt glad that he was Yang Guozhong's son many times, and he fully understood that if he was not Yang Guozhong's son, the achievements he had made now could not belong to him.

No matter how evil Yang Guozhong is in the eyes of others, he treats him, who is not his own son, but he is very good, even better than several other biological sons, which Yang Xi is very grateful. Even if Yang Guozhong brought him so many benefits, then he couldn't blame the father who raised him, and in the next time, what he had to do was to try his best to eliminate the negative impact of Yang Guozhong's evil name on him, and use the positive influence and benefits that Yang Guozhong could bring to him, and make things happen as much as possible.

If you really want to achieve great things, you must use unscrupulous means in many cases, use what you can use, and strive for more forces that can be honored.

And Guo Ziyi is the force that Yang Xi recognizes and can rely on the most besides Yang Guozhong.

Perhaps Guo Ziyi's influence on the Tang Dynasty cannot reach the height of the original history, but it is also difficult for ordinary people to compare. If Guo Ziyi was willing to help him sincerely, Yang Xi felt that Guo's power was likely to be the power to determine his surname, so he would definitely try his best to fight for it.

This is also the main reason why he expressed his thoughts very "frankly" to his father-in-law after Guo Ziyi asked him about his life experience. Of course, he is gambling, betting that Guo Ziyi will stand in the same trench with him and support him to succeed.

Yang Xi felt that he had made the right bet, at least after he finished talking to Guo Ziyi, Guo Ziyi's reaction made him feel this way.

Of course, Guo Ziyi couldn't have expressed his stance immediately after saying this, but he didn't have any words to reprimand Yang Xi, nor did he express other unhappy intentions, let alone regret his marriage, but told Yang Xi that he should never tell anyone about these things in the future, and he must be cautious in everything he does to avoid being caught. Guo Ziyi's warning made Yang Xi feel that this was encouragement and support in disguise.

Therefore, he felt that his friendship with Guo Ziyi was a right bet, and Guo Ziyi would support him in the future. Maybe all this is also ** for Guo Ziyi, his daughter can become the queen of the dynasty, and her son-in-law is the emperor, which is a huge ** for everyone.

The conversation between the two was only to the point, and did not go to a deeper level.

After talking about Yang Xi's life experience for a while, Guo Ziyi changed the topic to another aspect.

"Ziliang, it's already summer, when the weather is cold, you and Xin'er can get married, while the wedding date is not approaching yet, we have to find a way to get Your Majesty to agree to carry out the reform of military affairs as soon as possible!" Guo Ziyi stared at Yang Xi and said bluntly: "The old man has been serving abroad for many years, and he knows very well the harm of the current festival system to the imperial court. As long as the festival envoy system continues to exist, and the town festival envoy still has so much power, and the military and people's livelihood are in control, the world will continue to be turbulent, and the imperial court will not be able to control the world. ”

Guo Ziyi has been serving abroad for many years, and he has been serving as an envoy for a long time, so he knows all this very well.

Of course, he did not feel that the power in his hands was too great, but he was pleased to grasp the military and people's livelihood with one hand, and he should not be controlled by others in everything, and even the orders of the imperial court could be disobeyed.

But after experiencing An Lushan's rebellion, when he returned to the dynasty, he felt that this was the place that needed to change the most. The power of the Jiedu envoy is too great, and within the town of Jiedu, not to mention the military and people's livelihood, even the appointment and dismissal of personnel are the final say of the Jiedu envoy, as if it is a kingdom of reading. Although An Lushan's rebellion was quelled, this great thief did not have a very bad head, and there will definitely be some dissenting envoys in the future, who will follow in his footsteps, emulate his behavior, and think about being an emperor. For the sake of the stability of the world, in order not to cause chaos in the future, the system must be reformed, and the power in the hands of the temperance must be weakened and contained, so that they have no possibility of chaos.

Originally, Guo Ziyi was not in a hurry to do these things, he knew that it was very tricky to do these things, and he would set up a lot of "enemies", after all, no one was willing to hand over the power in his hands or go small, he felt that everything could be done slowly, and it took a few years. But after talking to Yang Xi, he immediately changed his mind, feeling that everything had to be done at a faster pace, and he must change all this with an iron fist.

So after thinking about it for a while, he immediately proposed it to Yang Xi.

Hearing Guo Ziyi say this, Yang Xi's eyes lit up as if he had found a bosom friend, and he immediately responded: "What my father-in-law said is very true, and my son-in-law also thinks so." Since the outbreak of the rebellion in An Lushan, the son-in-law has carefully analyzed this matter, and also believes that the most fundamental factor that led to the rebellion is that the power in the hands of Jiedu is too great. Before the Kaiyuan Dynasty, there were few rebellions led by generals on the edge of the town in the Tang Dynasty, and it was impossible to have a rebellion of such a scale as the An Lushan Rebellion at that time. A few days ago, I also told my father that the imperial court must carry out the reform of the military system and reduce the power in the hands of the envoys of various towns, otherwise the world will not be safe, and my father also agreed with what I said. ”

Hearing Yang Xi say this, Guo Ziyi's eyes lit up, and she hurriedly asked: "Ziliang, do you mean that your father Yang Xianggong, he also agreed to reduce the power in the hands of the envoys of various towns?" ”

"Yes!" Yang Xi nodded and replied, "In fact, before An Lushan's rebellion, my father had already sensed that An Lushan was going to be in turmoil, and suggested that Your Majesty should recall An Lushan and reduce the power of the envoys of each town, but Your Majesty did not fully obey. After the rebellion started, my father told me this several times, and I believe that my father-in-law will definitely support this suggestion!"

"That's good!" Guo Ziyi was relieved, patted Yang Xi's shoulder and said, "Ziliang, in the past few months, we have to think about how to do this." But first of all, we have to get His Majesty's consent to let us do this!"

"Father-in-law, please rest assured, Your Majesty will definitely agree to this matter!" (To be continued.) )
