—— In addition to Li Jue, the king of Yan, many of Li Longji's sons came to visit Yang Xi, hoping to get Yang Xi's help and the support of the entire Yang family. But except for Yang Xi, who quietly received Li Jue once, the others did not see anything, and continued to stay in the house to accompany Guo Xin and Ping'er, his wife and concubine. Or go to his father Yang Guozhong's house, talk to Yang Guozhong and his mother Pei Rou, and keep a low profile in front of everyone, lest Li Longji suspect him of anything. Since he knew that he was Li Jue's biological son, and after Li Jue promised to get the throne, he was appointed as the prince of the Tang Dynasty, Yang Xi felt a little weak in his heart, and he was afraid that Li Longji would know this and kill him.

Under the weakness of his heart, he also subconsciously kept a low profile, especially before the selection of the crown prince was announced.

So let's keep a low profile.

Of course, Mrs. Qiu, who is next door to the Duke of Wei's mansion, also goes there a few times occasionally. Although this woman is old, but for Yang Xi, it is still quite fresh, and Mrs. Qiu Guo is very experienced in the affairs of men and women, and often brings surprises to Yang Xi, and there is no sign of old age on her body, and all parts of her body feel completely like a young woman, Yang Xi does not resist intimate contact with her.

Mrs. Qiu Guo will also ask people to pass on Yang Xi from time to time, let Yang Xi pass, she has something to discuss.

Of course, Yang Xi was not easy to refuse Mrs. Qiu's summons, and the result of the discussion was of course the use of physical hand-to-hand combat.

One person has to deal with the demands of three women, and the three women have a lot of needs, especially Mrs. Qiuguo, who has not tasted the taste of a man for a long time, and after tasting the taste that Yang Xi brought her, she is sexually vigorous, and every time she seems to squeeze Yang Xi dry. There were no two rounds that didn't let Yang Xi go. Fortunately, many times Yang Xi only needs to lie down, and Mrs. Ren Qiuguo sweats and tosses her cheeks there, which also saves a lot of effort.

Fortunately, women have five or six days a month when they are not in good health. This is the time for Yang Xi to breathe.

There were many princes and other related people who came to see Yang Xi, and there were also many princes in Yang Guozhong's Wei State Mansion. Yang Guozhong is different from Yang Xi. As long as his body allows, as long as the movement is not very big, many people will receive him, and they will accept the goods they send. This made Yang Xi wonder very much, does he, a father, really value property so much? And not at all concerned about the emperor's possible rebellion? But he can't explicitly reprimand Yang Guozhong for doing this is wrong, and he should keep a low profile. Maybe Yang Guozhong has his own considerations, but Yang Xi didn't interfere.

During this time, Yang Xi did not have much contact with Guo Ziyi, and when he returned home on the second day of marriage, he discussed with Guo Ziyi afterwards. He never saw Guo Ziyi again. But after Li Jue's visit that day, Yang Xi's mind became active, and he probably estimated that Li Longji would soon announce the selection of the crown prince, so he couldn't resist his curiosity and secretly went to Guo Ziyi to talk about it.

I don't know what the reason is. Yang Xi's trust in his father Yang Guozhong and biological father Li Ying is not as good as Guo Ziyi, even if Yang Guozhong treats him very well, and Li Jue promises him so much, Yang Xi feels that Guo Ziyi is a trustworthy person. More trustworthy than Yang Guozhong and Li Jue. Maybe it's the fame of a few people in history, or maybe it's an intuition.

This sense of trust made Yang Xi tell Guo Ziyi many things, and Guo Ziyi already knew that he was Li Jue's biological son and planned to seek the throne, and he also married his daughter to him as his wife, which made Yang Xi increase his trust in him even more, if something big happened, the person who subconsciously wanted to go to find and discuss was not Yang Guozhong, but Guo Ziyi.

"Ziliang, did you come to the old man today for the sake of the prince's candidate?" Guo Ziyi, who received Yang Xi, did not have any courtesy, and asked directly.

Yang Xi didn't deny it, but he didn't admit it, he just smiled and said: "Father-in-law, my son-in-law hasn't come to see you for a long time, and I'll come over to talk to you when I'm free today." The son-in-law knows that his father-in-law will definitely tell me some things in the court, and there are also some things to tell the son-in-law. ”

During this time, although Yang Guozhong had entered the palace several times to discuss with Li Longji in secret, due to physical reasons, he was unable to come back to preside over court affairs, and the opportunity to exchange opinions with Li Longji was far inferior to Guo Ziyi and others, and the degree of understanding of what happened in the court was not as good as Guo Ziyi and others. Yang Xi knew that to understand the latest and most detailed movements in the court, no one was more suitable than Guo Ziyi.

Guo Ziyi glared at Yang Xi, fully knowing that this son-in-law was just playing tricks, and said angrily at the moment: "You stay in the mansion all day, you don't care about anything, the old man still thinks you have the intention of retreating!"

"Father-in-law is saying, can I come out and continue to do things without being so low-key now?"

Guo Ziyi didn't expect Yang Xi's reaction to be so agile, and after being stunned for a moment, she scolded with a smile: "You know it yourself, do you still want to ask me?" Stinky boy, the old man still doesn't know your methods, hiding in the house, and all his subordinates are sent out, you still don't know everything? Maybe even the movements of my father-in-law, you have investigated it clearly. ”

"The son-in-law will never dare!" Yang Xi was taken aback, he didn't expect Guo Ziyi to be so sensitive, so he quickly denied it, and immediately explained: "The son-in-law did send some people to inquire about the movements, but the father-in-law's movements have never dared to investigate." ”

said with a wry smile, "Even if you want to investigate, the son-in-law doesn't have so many people to send!"

Yang Xi's appearance provoked Guo Ziyi to laugh, patted Yang Xi's shoulder, and motioned to sit down and talk. After sitting down, he said again: "Ziliang, our son-in-law and son-in-law are very close people, and in the current situation, we can't have any outside situations, we have to work together for everything, otherwise not only will your idea not be realized, but even Guo Yang's two families will not be in trouble." ”

Hearing that Guo Ziyi suddenly brought the topic to such a serious situation, Yang Xi immediately put away the hippie smile just now, and asked solemnly: "Father-in-law, in this way, the son-in-law can really come out to do things?" ”

Guo Ziyi nodded slightly, "Yes, at least the old man thinks so." You said that you were sick and retired, originally you were just worried about being suspicious of Your Majesty, but now that your father has not recovered and returned to the court, you don't have to worry too much about this matter. Now that there are a lot of things going on in the court, if you continue to recuperate from illness, the prestige you have created in the court will gradually fade, and your influence will be lost. Therefore, under the premise that your father can't come out to preside over the affairs of the court, you can rest assured that you can do things in the court. ”

"Does my father-in-law mean that this is included: my father can't come out and do things, which is best for me?"

Guo Ziyi was stunned, and after thinking about it, he still shook his head: "The old man didn't mean that. ”

Seeing that Guo Ziyi denied it, Yang Xi didn't ask, but he understood that Guo Ziyi did have this meaning in his words. This is also the actual situation, if Yang Guozhong is not in the court, then Yang Xi's scruples can be less. Under the current situation, he basically does not need Yang Guozhong's protection, Yang Guozhong no longer holds important positions, or is unable to preside over court affairs due to illness, which is an excellent thing for him. But if Yang Guozhong continues to have a very big influence in the court, then he will have to be much more careful in his actions, maybe that day the emperor will attack the Yang family for the sake of peace in the world. But he didn't dare to say such thoughts.

Guo Ziyi knew that Yang Xi understood the meaning contained in his words, and he didn't continue to say anything in this regard, but just smiled knowingly and then said: "Ziliang, these days, Your Majesty has talked to me several times about the selection of the crown prince, if the old man is not bad, I believe that His Majesty the Emperor will soon issue an edict and make King Yan the crown prince." So the old man thinks that you can't recuperate in the house anymore, you need to come out to do things, otherwise you will miss many opportunities. His Majesty is already old, and he has no intention of political affairs, maybe after the new crown prince is appointed, some other things will be considered immediately......"

Guo Ziyi's words shocked Yang Xi a little, and he understood the meaning of these words.

Li Longji is old, and he is already tired of political affairs, and maybe he will soon give up the throne.

If Li Longji really did this, then how should he respond?

Just when Yang Xi thought of this question, Guo Ziyi seemed to know his thoughts and asked: "The old man wants to ask you today, if His Royal Highness King Yan is really made the crown prince, how will you deal with it?" ”

"What should I do?" Yang Xi asked himself, and immediately smiled self-deprecatingly, "Don't hide it from my father-in-law, in fact, I don't know what to do!"

"If you have such a long-term idea, how can you not have a long-term plan?" Guo Ziyi was surprised and puzzled.

Yang Xi sighed and said helplessly: "Don't hide it from your father-in-law, His Royal Highness King Yan came down to visit me a few days ago, and he gave me another promise!" Today, the son-in-law came to visit his father-in-law, just to discuss with his father-in-law, if His Royal Highness King Yan is really made the crown prince, what should I do!"

Yang Xi said this, which made Guo Ziyi breathe a sigh of relief, since the matter is explained, then don't worry too much, what he is most afraid of is such a big thing, he and Yang Xi are both unclear. "Since everything is like this, then the two of us in law-in-law, let's sum it up today!" Yang Xi's straightforward telling made Guo Ziyi feel a kind of trust, and he also made up his mind.

Guo Ziyi's expression made Yang Xi also breathe a sigh of relief, and immediately threw out a more straightforward question: "Father-in-law, son-in-law thinks that if you want to succeed in the end, the forbidden army in the palace must be firmly controlled, this is the most basic point, and the most important point, I don't know if my father-in-law agrees?" Yes? ”

Guo Ziyi was taken aback again, but still nodded in agreement: "Yes, the old man agrees with you, so I hope that there are more people that you and I can trust to be arranged to serve in the forbidden army!"

The two looked at each other and smiled, since there was a common understanding in this matter, it was much easier to do.

Then the two began to discuss all aspects of the matter in detail, and it was not until the sun set in the west that Yang Xi said goodbye and left.

It had been three or four hours since he had come to visit.
