Although Gao Xianzhi's character is equally greedy,
he really possessed true skills.
In contrast, what about Yang Guozhong?
In the original history, whether in official records or in popular legends, his life was primarily described as "misleading the country."
His political career was filled with autocracy, bribery, and intensifying conflicts, almost without any substantial achievements recognized.
How could Gu Yi look up to such a person?
Now it was merely a simple matter of using him, without even requiring Gu Yi to personally direct Gu Xuan to take action; just releasing some information would suffice.
Given Yang Guozhong's relationship with An Lushan,
he would certainly push everything forward to prevent An Lushan from growing too powerful.
This is also human nature.
The role of the Imperial Censorate became fully apparent at such times, although Li Longji had decreed to abolish the last remaining power in Gu Hao's hands.
