== During Emperor Gaozong's reign ==
In 678, Tang forces commanded by the [[chancellor of the Tang
In 681, Guo was made the ''Mishu Shaojian'' ({{lang|zh|秘書少監}}), deputy head of the archival bureau as well as acting ''Zhongshu Shilang'' ({{lang|zh|中書侍郎}}), the deputy head of the legislative bureau. In 682, he was given the designation ''Tong Zhongshu Menxia Pingzhangshi'' ({{lang|zh-hant|同中書門下平章事}}), making him a chancellor ''de facto''. It was said that because Guo had been at the legislative bureau for a long period and was familiar with how it was run, most of the edicts were drafted by him, and he was considered capable in this. In 683, when Emperor Gaozong became seriously ill, he had Guo, along with [[Pei Yan]] and Liu, assist his [[crown prince]] [[Emperor Zhongzong of Tang|Li Zhe]] in handling important matters of state.
== During Empress Dowager Wu's regency ==
Emperor Gaozong died in late 683 and was succeeded by Li Zhe (as Emperor Zhongzong), but Emperor Gaozong's powerful wife [[Wu Zetian|Empress Wu]] served as [[regent]] and [[empress dowager]]. Soon after Emperor Zhongzong's ascension, around the new year 684, she made Guo Zhengyi the principal of the imperial university, no longer a chancellor. Just a short time thereafter, Emperor Zhongzong, who displayed signs of independence, was deposed by Empress Dowager Wu and replaced by his brother [[Emperor Ruizong of Tang|Li Dan]] the Prince of Yu (as Emperor Ruizong).
For the next few years, Guo was moved between several positions—first as the prefect of Jin Prefecture (晉州, roughly modern [[Linfen]], [[Shanxi]]), then the deputy head of the archival bureau (by this time known as ''Lintai Jian'' ({{lang|zh|麟臺監)}}), then acting prefect of Shan Prefecture (陝州, roughly modern [[Sanmenxia]], [[Henan]]). He was serving as the prefect of Shan Prefecture as of 689, when Xu Jingzhen ({{lang|zh|徐敬真}}), the brother of [[Li Jingye|Xu Jingye]] the Duke of Ying, who had led an unsuccessful rebellion against Empress Dowager Wu in 684, was captured after spending several years in hiding. During the interrogation of Xu Jingzhen and Zhang Siming ({{lang|zh-hant|張嗣明}}), a county magistrate who had assisted Xu Jingzhen in his years of hiding, Xu and Zhang implicated a large number of officials—hoping that by doing so, they would be spared. Among those who were implicated were Guo, along with other key officials [[Zhang Guangfu]], Zhang Chujin ({{lang|zh-hant|張楚金}}), Yuan Wanqing ({{lang|zh|元萬頃}}), and [[Wei Yuanzhong]]. Zhang Guangfu was executed, but Guo, Zhang Chujin, Yuan, and Wei were spared and exiled to the [[Lingnan]] region. Guo, however, died while on the way to exile or in exile, and his assets were confiscated.<ref>However, the chronology of Wu Zetian's regency and reign in the ''[[New Book of Tang]]'' indicated that Guo was executed in exile.
