Chapter 70: I didn't expect it to be
—— Guo Xi can be said to be the most intelligent and shrewd of Guo Ziyi's eight sons, who has been by Guo Ziyi's side for several years, has learned a lot of ways to deal with people, and also knows the truth of following the trend. It was precisely because of Guo Xi's fancy that Guo Ziyi sent him back to the court this time, asking Guo Xi to do everything possible to ask the emperor to agree to the plan proposed by him and Li Guangbi to raise troops to attack Fan Yang.
Guo Ziyi was born in martial arts, but for many years he has not been famous, until An Lushan's rebellion broke out, he has been complaining that no one in the court has led to him doing nothing, and Guo Xi also fully understands this meaning. They also know Yang Guozhong's career, Guo Ziyi and Guo Xi both agree on one point, that is, there are backers in the court, and if someone supports them, their careers will definitely be much smoother.
Now Yang Guozhong's power in the court is unmatched, and even the prince is not an opponent at all, and too many people speculate that the prince will one day be deposed because of Yang Guozhong's death. If he can get involved with Yang Guozhong, Guo Xi believes that his father will not be such a, as long as he has military exploits, he will soon soar. Although Yang Guozhong's behavior has made many people ashamed, this person is still quite righteous. And Yang Xi is so good, he has made several dumbfounded achievements at a young age, and even his father's achievements during this period are very inferior to him. From a utilitarian point of view, if you can marry the Yang family, the significance is extraordinary.
Guo Xi has sixteen brothers and sisters, eight sisters, and many brothers and sisters. The taste of family affection and reluctance to marry his sister is gone, in his feelings. Marriage for the sake of politics is something that must be done. If Yang Guozhong is not unlucky, he will continue to gain power. It was a very wise choice to get married to the Yang family, and Guo Xi believed that his father Guo Ziyi would also agree with this. Guo Xi also believes that the Yang family will continue to be popular, with the noble concubine Yang Yuhuan, and with Yang Xi with such an outstanding performance, it is impossible for the Yang family to be unlucky soon.
Guo Xi believes that now he must not know how many big families are crying and shouting that they want to marry their daughters to Yang Xi, in order to touch the light of Yang Xi's glory and be shaded by the Yang family, of course he will have this kind of thought. What's more, Yang Xi has an appetite for him. After getting along with him in the past few days, he feels that it is worth making friends.
After a few pauses in his mind, Guo Xi's thoughts changed a lot, and he was a little happy to see it, and he was no longer angry about his sister's unclear relationship with Yang Xi, and after listening to Guo Xin's words just now, he also interjected: "Seventh sister, since Ziliang said so, then we should not be polite, you and Ziliang have had several such adventures." But there is really fate, you have to have a few more drinks with Ziliang today, so you should be his heroic! Generalissimo Yang led 100,000 men and horses to attack Shaanxi County, and wiped out 100,000 opponents with only a few thousand casualties. Such a record is admired, and you should wish him to continue to have such achievements. ”
Guo Xin looked at his third brother in surprise, and couldn't understand why Guo Xi said this. What kind of "fate", if you really identify this "fate". That's not too ...... Is that one?
She couldn't help but blush a little when she thought of this. glared at Guo Xi hatefully, annoyed that her third brother also made fun of her. However, she still obeyed the orders of her third brother and gave Yang Xi another glass, "That little woman will give Marshal Yang another cup, and I wish Marshal Yang will continue to win victories in future wars, obtain military merits, and be rewarded by the emperor." ”
Yang Xi didn't notice the changes before and after Guo Xi, and when he saw Guo Xin respecting him again, he hurriedly raised his glass, "Thank you Qi Niang for your wishes, I hope we will have the opportunity to meet again next time, I hope ...... I will not throw my life away in the fight against the rebels. ”
Yang Xi's words made Guo Xi and Guo Xin stunned for a moment, I really don't understand how this person could say this, this is an unlucky word?
"Brother Ziliang, you can't say anything discouraged! This is unlucky, we don't believe that anyone can take your life," Guo Xi, who laughed twice, also raised his glass, and saluted Yang Xi and said: "You are now the top general of the Tang Dynasty, and the rebels have suffered continuous losses in your hands, and you will definitely win glory again in the future, and you will be invincible." ”
"Okay, let's not talk about the military!" Yang Xi smiled and drank another glass of wine, and straightened up after putting down the glass, "Let's say something light, lest it be rare to go back to Chang'an once, and fight all day long." By the way, Brother Ziyang, you have so many younger brothers and sisters, why did only Qi Niang come out to find you today? ”
Hearing Yang Xi say this, Guo Xi touched his nose a little embarrassed, "Don't hide it from Brother Ziliang, today I told my mother that I have something to go out and want to find a place to drink and relax." Qi Niang has been pestering me vigorously, asking me to take her out to play and drink with me, I remember that I have an appointment with you, and it is inconvenient to take her, so I secretly came out, but I didn't expect her to find it by herself! That's what she did, and the other siblings didn't dare. ”
was exposed again, Guo Xin was a little annoyed and angry, glared at Guo Xi, and said angrily: "Third brother, you didn't say that you had an appointment with Yang Jiashiro, you and your mother said that you came out to drink alone, I think you are very bored alone, and I want to accompany you out to relax, you yourself are unwilling to take me, secretly come out, and talk about me." I was afraid that you would drink too much, so I came out to look for you, and you still said that. ”
Ignoring Guo Xi angrily.
Seeing the brother and sister like this, Yang Xi couldn't help laughing, "I said that the two of you, since you are already sitting here and drinking together, don't worry about this." I'm really glad that Qi Niang came to find your brother, otherwise I wouldn't know that you were brothers and sisters, and I didn't know that Qi Niang was the baby daughter of Guo Jiedu's envoy. Come, let's keep drinking. ”
As soon as he heard Yang Xi say this, Guo Xin muttered a little dissatisfied: "You didn't ask me this, you didn't tell me your identity, and you didn't even tell your name, who could know that you were the famous Marshal Yang." ”
"Aren't you worried that you're prejudicing me? I'm afraid of getting into trouble!" Yang Xi said helplessly, "I know that my father's reputation is not very good, and many people hate him, so I don't dare to say it, for fear that you will despise me." ”
"Huh?!" Hearing Yang Xi say this about his father Yang Guozhong, Guo Xin and Guo Xi were stunned, how could anyone talk about their father like this!
Yang Xi waved his hand, signaled the two brothers and sisters not to ask him anything, poured the three people's cups full of wine, and saluted the two brothers and sisters: "Today, we won't talk about heavy topics, just talk casually, talk about easy things, and when we return to the army, we won't have such an opportunity to drink and chat." ”
Guo Xin and Guo Xi also immediately agreed, and stopped talking about these things, and the three of them casually talked about some interesting things that they usually talked about.
Drinking wine and talking casually, the atmosphere soon became relaxed.
With Guo Xi, a person with other plans, on the side to help, Yang Xi and Guo Xin chatted very hotly.
His brother didn't care about anything, and he seemed to be happy to see his relationship with Yang Xi, Guo Xin also had fewer scruples, and even the gloomy feeling he had didn't know where he was thrown away. Yang Xi talked about a wide range of topics, and many things sounded very fresh, even Guo Xin, who asked himself about the ancient and modern times, had never heard of it, which surprised her very much.
Seeing his sister chatting happily with Yang Xi, Guo Xi was a little sour and tasteful, but he was still very happy, when Yang Xi and Guo Xin were arguing about a small issue, he also had a ghost idea, and at the end of the argument between the two, he immediately got up and said to Yang Xi apologetically: "Brother Ziliangxian, I still have some things, I want to leave first." Tomorrow I may have to leave Chang'an to return to the army, and the ordnance allocated by the imperial court to my father's army will be counted by me, for fear that there will be any mistakes, and I will ask for forgiveness. Presumably, Brother Xian hasn't drunk it yet, so let Xiaomei stay here to accompany you to continue drinking bars? ”
Hearing Guo Xi say this, Yang Xi was stunned for a while, but Guo Xin was ashamed and angry, what did his brother say, he actually let a little woman drink with Yang Xi here, but he slipped away under the pretext of excuse.
What does that mean?
Yang Xi quickly understood what Guo Xi meant, and immediately accepted his feelings, "Okay, Brother Ziyang, let's go and get busy first, after all, this is a big deal, and you can't be negligent." In this way, when you pass through the Tong Pass, I will give you some weapons that I have made myself, that is, the mighty general cannon that played an important role in the attack on Shaanxi County, I just hope that you will take good care of these weapons and never fall into the hands of others. ”
Guo Xi was overjoyed when he heard this, and he didn't expect Yang Xi to give him such a powerful weapon, so he immediately got up, straightened up and agreed: "Thank you Marshal Yang for your gift, the general will be grateful." Please also rest assured that Marshal Yang will definitely take care of the last general, and will never allow him to fail!"
Guo Xi was awarded the post of Zuo Weilang general by Li Longji, and the order was just delivered early in the morning, and he could also call himself the "last general" in front of Yang Xi.
Yang Xi didn't say anything more, and Guo Xi, who was overjoyed, gave Guo Xin a look on his envoy, and then said goodbye and left.
There were only two people left in the private room, and a slight embarrassment appeared in Guo Xin's heart.
Yang Xi played with the wine glass, looked at Guo Xin, who was full of delicate colors in front of him, and quipped: "Qi Niang, your brother left by himself, leaving the two of us to drink here, what does he mean?" ”
"How do I know, you ask him yourself," Guo Xin rolled his eyes angrily, glared at Yang Xi and said, "Don't you want me to drink with you here?" If you don't want to, I'll go too. ”
"How is that possible!" Yang Xi hurriedly shook his head, "I can drink with a stunning beauty like Qi Niang, I Yang Xi don't know how lucky I am, it's because the wine is not drunk and everyone is drunk, and if you don't get drunk today, you won't return." ”
One sentence made Guo Xin even more embarrassed, and he had the urge to rush over and beat Yang Xi violently, but in the end he held back and just expressed his dissatisfaction with a cold snort.
Yang Xi didn't continue to laugh, still playing with the wine glass, and asked sullenly: "Qi Niang, are you disappointed after you know who I am?" He sighed slightly.
"This ......" Guo Xin, who didn't expect Yang Xi to ask so directly, was stunned for a moment, didn't dare to admit it but didn't want to deny it, but sat with his head down.
"Actually, I was worried that I would be disappointed after you knew that I was Yang Guozhong's son, but I didn't expect it to be," Yang Xi smiled bitterly, "I don't want to, but I don't have a choice." ”
Yang Xi's words made Guo Xin stunned again, there was a son who called himself Lao Tzu's name? Yang Xi: What do you mean?
