The Three Kingdoms: A vicious plan was offered, and Liu Bei was stunned!

Chapter 314 Yang Xiu's evil plan, Cao Jie doesn't care

"That bitch actually dared to hit me!"

Cao Zhi in the mansion couldn't bear the thought of it, and Yang Xiu's face twitched as he listened to it. Who could have thought that Cao Jie really didn't give him face.

The beating was so severe that Cao Zhi's skin was covered with wounds and he couldn't get out of bed for half a month. The beating was extremely brutal.

"Second Master, be careful." Yang Xiu looked around and asked all the people serving Cao Zhi to go back, fearing that there might be Cao Cao's spies among them.

Cao Zhi's eyes were gloomy. This beating made the aristocratic families who had originally supported him become cautious again. Except for Yang Xiu and other close people, the other aristocratic disciples, seeing that he was beaten, kept a distance from him.

When the local nobles saw this, they were all surprised. Cao Jie was awesome!
The local relatives knew about Cao Zhi taking the book from the Wei family, and some of them tried to persuade Cao Zhi, but most of them just sat back and watched.

Or just in case Luo Yuan doesn't care?

So if Cao Zhi took the book from the Wei family, couldn't they borrow it, open it, copy it, and pass it down to the family?

Everyone had a lot of ideas, but after Cao Ji took action, no one had any ideas anymore.

Luo Yuan is very cruel, and his wife is just as cruel.

After Cao Jie took out the blank paper and signed the purchase document with Xun Yu, these nobles finally had nothing to say.

Compared to white paper, Cao Zhi is not as good as white paper.

After porcelain, Jiangling white paper became popular in Yecheng, and a new bulk commodity emerged.

This means countless benefits. Although Cao Jie's document was signed with Cao Cao, thinking that Prime Minister Cao's character would definitely monopolize the white paper trade, but Prime Minister Cao was the general distributor, so couldn't they be regional distributors?

The emergence of paper is not only used for writing and recording texts, but also affects all aspects of life.

Especially one kind of toilet paper used for going to the toilet, you can't stop using it after using it once, it feels better than silk.

Still cheap!
Writing paper is very expensive, but toilet paper is cheap, only a hundred cents a roll!
Of course toilet paper comes in rolls. You can use a piece of wood and install a handrail to roll the toilet paper by hand. One roll of paper is 100 meters long. The main feature is that it is of good quality and low price.

This thing is used frequently and you can become addicted after using it. Doesn't it take a meter or two to go to the toilet every time?
Once these things were taken out, Cao Jie became the most powerful king in Yecheng. If Cao Cao even used toilet paper, other nobles would follow suit. And there was toilet paper with the scent of flowers.

For the sake of toilet paper, the local gentry had to keep their distance from Cao Zhi while Cao Jie was in Yecheng. What if Cao Jie was unhappy and refused to give them toilet paper?

Yang Xiu had no choice but to say, "Sir, please be patient for now. After all, she is married. How long can she stay in Yecheng? Just wait until she leaves."

"When will she leave?"

"..."

Who knows? Yang Xiu thought: "I have to finish my work before I can leave!"

She is Cao's eldest daughter. Only she can decide when Cao Jie wants to leave.

Yang Xiu felt that the key now was the Wei family: "The Wei family in Hedong may not know the news yet. They are the key. We cannot let them create trouble that will implicate the young master."

Cao Zhi was stunned and nodded slightly. It made sense. If Cao Jie beat him up, the matter would basically be over. But what if Wei caused more trouble?
Want another meal?
I am not afraid of being beaten, I am just afraid of letting my father think I am a waste

What if Cao Pi takes the opportunity to cause trouble!
"That makes sense. What do you think I should do?" Cao Zhi asked hurriedly. "The Wei family is a big family and the descendant of Wei Qing."

Yang Xiu thought: "If Wei Kai was killed by Cao Jie, the nobles would be angry. Then maybe there is something to be done."

Cao Zhi was a little hesitant, wondering if it would be a bad idea.

Yang Xiu said: "Cao Jie is Luo Yuan's wife. Wei Kai died because of him. The gentry must resent Luo Yuan!" When Cao Zhi thought of Luo Yuan, he couldn't control himself.

Luo Yuan and Cao Pi have a good relationship, but he looks down on him. Luo Yuan bullied him in the past, and he endured it. Now Luo Yuan's old woman is also bullying him.

Is this a group formed to bully me?

"Okay, let's see what he does then, but how will Wei Kai die?"

Yang Xiu laughed and said, "Young Master, if you tell him to die, he will definitely die!"

He gave Cao Zhi a look, and Cao Zhi agreed immediately.

Yang Xiu went back and wrote a letter to Wei Kai. A few days later, there was news from Hedong that Wei Kai had committed suicide and left a letter before he did!
It is said that he was forced to commit suicide because of Cao Jie's coercion.

Yang Xiu contacted some people and went to Cao Cao to complain.

After all, the Wei family is a big family in Hedong, and the patriarch of a prominent family descended from Wei Qing was forced to death like this. Isn't Cao Jie too domineering?

Everyone asked Cao Cao to give an explanation!
"Prime Minister, the Hedong nobles are extremely terrified now. Wei Kai died because of this, so why can't they die? I'm afraid the Hedong nobles will become alienated because of this."

"Please ask Cao Jie to explain why he forced Wei Kai to death, otherwise Hedong will definitely be in turmoil!"

"We also need Cao Jie to kowtow and admit his fault in front of Wei Kai. Only by doing so can Hedong be at peace!"

"Hedong is an important place. Contact Guanzhong. If Hedong is unstable, Guanzhong will be uneasy. The Prime Minister needs to make a decision soon!"

Cao Cao was annoyed by these people's noise, but he also knew that they were right. Hedong was very important.

"I'll think about it and give you an answer later!"

The nobles then said goodbye and watched Cao Cao in trouble, and they were satisfied.

Their attitude represents the attitude of the northern gentry, who are the foundation of their rule.

Wei Kai died at the wrong time.

Maybe this time in order to appease the gentry, Cao Cao will have to give up a lot of benefits.

After those people left, Chen Lin and Cao Cao said, "What is the Prime Minister's plan? Cao Jie is Luo Yuan's wife. If the Prime Minister punishes Cao Jie, Luo Yuan will definitely be dissatisfied. Luo Gongqi may not dare to act recklessly, but if Cao Jie is not punished, the northern nobles may be dissatisfied with the Prime Minister."

It’s very difficult to deal with!

Luo Yuan is not easy to offend. Who knows what Luo Yuan will do. Is Cao Jie so easy to punish?
Cao Cao laughed and said, "Do you think Wei Kai really died because of Ah Jie?"

Chen Lin said, "It is very likely that the eldest lady is very aggressive in Yecheng. She holds Jiangling porcelain, white paper and other benefits in her hands. The noble families are eager to get them. I am afraid that she has offended someone!"

Those nobles all wanted to cooperate with Cao Jie, but Cao Jie refused.

Cao Cao said: "This is the key point. Wei Kai is just an instigator. He can be killed if he dies. The only way is to satisfy those nobles. However, if Cao Jie is punished, Luo Yuan will be angry. This seems to be aimed at Cao Jie, but it is actually aimed at Luo Yuan. What should I do? I have to ask Ah Jie first!"

Cao Cao immediately called Cao Jie and talked to him about it. Cao Jie said, "Wei Kai is dead? So what?

Cao Jie looked indifferent. It wasn't his own man who died, so Wei Kai died. Is there any need to care?

Cao Cao and Chen Lin were also shocked by Cao Jie's attitude.
