Yan Baihu recalled that year in Lujiang City, when he was dressed in animal skin clothes and descended from the sky into Sunzi Camp to abduct Qiao Jingjing from Zhang Zhao.
He never imagined that such a petite woman could become the most influential woman in Wu County today.
Yan Baihu has already been decapitated.
Guo Jia, at the post station, let out a rare sigh.
"Mediocre talent!"
He's just a mediocre person. How did such a person become a mountain king with over ten thousand soldiers and never get wiped out in a single battle for so many years?
Seeing that the situation was hopeless, he was not content with his lot and still hoped to regain Cao Mengde's favor.
It's just a joke.
Guo Jia suddenly couldn't laugh at Yan Baihu's joke.
Guo Jia suddenly realized that Sun Ce, who looked so tall, handsome, dashing and bright, was actually doing things that sent chills down his spine.
Sun Ce spread the word throughout the entire Wu Commandery, admiring Guo Jia's talent and wanting to keep him there.
They never mentioned the matter of building a palace for His Majesty the Emperor.
What does this mean?
Is this an attempt to flatter him to death?
Absolutely, absolutely, a case of praising someone to death.
Guo Jia stood in the post station by the lamplight, pondering deeply.
He couldn't expect Cao Pi to help him!
When Cao Pi arrived in Jiangdong, he made his attitude clear. Cao Pi did not trust Guo Jia in the first place, and he used the many wives and children that Guo Jia had left behind to threaten Guo Jia, making Guo Jia turn his blade against Sun Ce.
Guo Jia could only suffer in silence.
After much thought, Guo Jia could only come up with one way to survive.
He wanted to meet with Sun Ce or Sun Quan alone, but he was afraid of being rejected or becoming even more suspicious of Cao Pi. So Guo Jia thought of Qiao Jingjing.
Now that Lady Qiao has such influence in Wu County, who dares to disrespect her?
Furthermore, Lady Da Qiao's family was large.
Apart from Lady Xiao Qiao, Lady Da Qiao's younger sister, who was far away in Baqiu accompanying Zhou Yu to guard the frontier.
Lady Da Qiao's two younger brothers are now minor officials in Wu County, and she also has several adopted brothers.
This whole family lived in Wu County.
Since more people make things easier, Guo Jia was able to contact Da Qiao's family.
Guo Jia set his sights on Qiao Jingjing's two good-for-nothing younger brothers.
Speaking of Qiao Er and Qiao San.
In fact, they have become much more accomplished than before.
After all, Wu County had such a good platform, and with a capable older sister like Qiao Jingjing to guide and mentor them, and the overall environment in Jiangdong was relatively stable, Qiao Er and Qiao San were doing smoothly, serving as minor officials in the army.
Although Qiao's mother once wanted Qiao Er and Qiao San to be promoted.
Mrs. Joe mentioned it countless times:
"People strive for higher positions. Can't you two be a little more ambitious? I see that Lü Meng, Jiang Qin, and Zhou Tai have already been promoted to Lang Jiang. What's wrong with you two? You are Lady Da Qiao's own brothers!"
Whenever Mrs. Joe said that, Old Man Joe would tell his half-mad, half-sane wife to shut up.
Let Qiao Er and Qiao San make their old mother content.
"That's all we're capable of. We can only manage a few hundred people. If you ask me to manage a few thousand, I can't! If you ask me to lead troops into battle, I'm not up to it. We can only rely on our elder sister's protection to be rich and idle officials. We're very content."
