Cao Pi was much calmer than Guo Jia.
"Therefore, my father sent Guo Fengxiao to Jiangdong. If this matter is difficult, Guo Fengxiao may stay in Jiangdong for a while longer! Tomorrow I will speak to Sun Ce and ask him to leave Guo Fengxiao in Jiangdong and send some other Confucian scholars to serve as officials around the emperor. At that time, Guo Fengxiao must seize the opportunity! If you miss this opportunity, your wife, children and elderly parents in Xudu will probably be able to spend their days in tears and will not be able to live a peaceful life."
Cao Pi was not only stingy, but also ruthless.
In this respect, he surpasses Cao Cao.
Guo Jia understood.
Since Guo Jia chose Cao Cao over Yuan Shao, he must have been loyal to Cao Cao.
However, Cao Cao's son, Cao Pi, actually used Guo Jia's family members to threaten Guo Jia.
Guo Jia's feelings at this moment were, of course, indescribable.
Guo Jia might as well speak frankly with Cao Pi:
"Does the Second Young Master suspect Guo Jia, thinking that Guo Jia might be tempted by this material and betray Lord Cao?"
Cao Pi merely gave a cold smile.
"Guo Fengxiao, don't worry. One must be wary of others. Fengxiao, don't blame me! I came to Jiangdong with my third brother on my father's orders. Ostensibly, it was about the imperial palace, but in reality, it was to undermine Jiangdong and create internal strife there."
Today, the entire Jiangdong region and even the whole world praise Sun Ce and his wife, Lady Qiao.
It is said that Madam Qiao was not only beautiful and intelligent, but also extremely skilled at bewitching people.
Cao Pi pointed blankly out the window and mentioned the four beauties who had been turned away by Guo Jia that day.
"If Sun Ce were to send Lady Qiao to use a honey trap one day, could you guarantee, Guo Fengxiao, that your heart would still be with Cao Cao's camp?"
Cao Pi's words made Guo Jia want to open his heart and prove it to him.
Cao Pi only said, "I believe in the outcome. There's no need for nice words. Fengxiao, you already told my father that Sun Ce was bound to die, but what happened? Sun Ce is radiant and full of vigor. Where is the sign of an early death?"
Cao Pi intended to use such strong language to exert pressure on the country.
Cao Pi was unwilling to take the blame for killing Sun Ce.
Because he personally witnessed Sun Ce himself, and how peaceful and prosperous Jiangdong was under Sun Ce's rule.
Sun Ce was already the god of Jiangdong.
If Cao Pi had killed Sun Ce when Sun Ce was popular, he would have been condemned by the people.
This kind of crime is best left to a petty person.
As for who Guo Jia would choose as the scapegoat, and what methods Guo Jia would devise, Cao Pi didn't care. As the son of his lord Cao Cao, he only needed to exert pressure on these strategists.
This strategist, for the sake of profit, for something unspeakable, will surely go to great lengths to achieve it.
Cao Cao first sent Guo Jia.
Later, the brothers Cao Pi and Cao Zhi were sent to assist them.
Qiao Jingjing was so worried that she couldn't sleep.
As far as Qiao Jingjing knew, Cao Cao was notoriously cunning and full of schemes, and the people around him were also a bunch of wicked and treacherous individuals.
Because of the wealth of Jiangdong.
Cao Cao has now focused all his attention on Sun Ce of Jiangdong. Who knows what tricks Cao Cao will come up with to harm Sun Ce?
