"But sir, I heard that when the troops from Shaanzhou were attacking Hezhou, they were blocked in Nanxiang County and could not move forward."
"From the news coming from them, it seems that no matter how many people there are, it will not be easy to handle."
"But if we let them take a detour, it would be too far."
"this……"
Ban Gu said in a panic.
For a while, there was no good reason to stop Cao Kang.
"What's wrong with you?"
"Why are you so timid at this time?"
"Before, before the time came, you all encouraged me to take the position one by one. Now that the time has come, why are you trying to push me back and forth?"
Cao Kang glanced at Ban Gu with some dissatisfaction.
In Cao Kang's view, Ban Gu was very loyal to him and had given him many ideas over the years.
It is further fueling his ambition step by step.
It can be said that he is his number one counselor.
After he became the emperor, he planned to make him the prime minister.
Now I am timid.
"Yes, yes, I have been thinking about chasing the emperor recently. Suddenly I heard the Lord say this, and I didn't turn around for a while."
"Since you have decided to proclaim yourself emperor, you must start as soon as possible!"
"After proclaiming himself emperor, he immediately launched an attack on Hezhou and used the attack on Hezhou to let everyone in the world know what our lord is capable of."
Ban Gu said quickly.
Seeing that Cao Kang has made up his mind at this time, it is not possible for him to change just by talking casually. If he stops him at this time, it may even arouse suspicion.
"Um!"
"That's right!"
"In that case, after you go back, help me think about this matter more carefully as soon as possible, and start taking action in the next few days!"
Cao Kang nodded to Ban Gu.
After coming out of Da Sima's Mansion, Ban Gu sat in the sedan chair, frowning and thinking all the way.
According to Cao Kang's current power, Zhang Bao of Hezhou is obviously no match!
Who would have thought that Nanzhou and Chuanzhou would directly surrender to Cao Kang, which suddenly gave Cao Kang no worries and also had so many troops.
Once Hezhou is also defeated, Cao Kang's throne will be stable.
When the situation is unclear, rumors may still have an impact, but in the face of absolute strength, such rumors will disappear sooner or later.
"Sir, we have arrived."
At this moment, a servant's voice came from outside the sedan.
Ban Gu then realized that the sedan had stopped a long time ago. His men must have been waiting for a long time and he did not come out on his own initiative, so he couldn't help but ask.
"oh……"
"arrive?"
Ban Gu opened the curtain and took a look.
The servant next to me was very strange, what happened to the master today?
Why are you a little dazed?
When he arrived at the door of the mansion, he didn't go in. Is it because he was afraid of the eldest lady?
"Get up the sedan and go to Zheng Bao Bank!"
Ban Gu thought for a while and said to his servants.
…
Zheng Bao Bank.
Zheng Kongqing has been on tenterhooks since Zhang Bao left here last time.
They were afraid that something might happen to Zhang Bao and the others while they were doing something, and they would be caught.
But not long after, news came that the emperor was missing.
Moreover, the entire capital city was in chaos.
Zheng Kongqing was so excited that he couldn't sleep all night!
Finally!
Finally Zhang Bao and the others succeeded!
No matter what, since Zhang Bao has taken this step, it means that Zhang Bao's take-off will start from this moment.
When the time comes, I will be of great help, so why not fly with me?
During this time, Zheng Kongqing was very excited.
During the chaos in the capital, Zheng Bao Bank was open normally. Zheng Kongqing was afraid of being caught, especially after hearing from the bank's housekeeper that Cao Kang's people had discovered the previous house, he was worried.
And after asking around, I heard that a tunnel was dug in the house, leading directly into the palace.
Zheng Kongqing was shocked beyond measure.
Fortunately, the housekeeper was more cautious at the time. When he bought the house, he used a fabricated identity and did not contact Zheng Bao Bank.
Otherwise, due to this incident alone, let alone Zheng Bao Bank, the entire Zheng family may be in ruins.
Danger always coexists with opportunity.
What kind of benefits this matter can bring to the Zheng family, and what kind of crisis it also hides.
At every step of this, you must be very careful.
Fortunately, this time, the Zheng family did it again.
I heard that Cao Kang has been chasing him for more than a month, but there is still no news. If he could be found, I am afraid he would have been found long ago, and there would be no need to wait until now.
Zheng Kongqing's heart has slowly relaxed recently.
"Shopkeeper, Mr. Ban Gu is here and waiting in the living room."
At this moment.
The housekeeper hurriedly came to Zheng Kongqing and said.
"Ban Gu?"
"Why is he here?"
"He is Cao Kang's man!"
After listening to the butler's words, Zheng Kongqing broke out in a cold sweat.
Could it be that Cao Kang already knew some clues and was suspicious of them?
Did Ban Gu come to test you on purpose?
"But shopkeeper, I think Mr. Ban Gu is quite polite. When I said I wanted to report, he said you're welcome and hung around in front, so I quickly led him to the living room."
The housekeeper said to Zheng Kongqing.
Zheng Kongqing didn't have time to ask any more questions, so he hurriedly ran to the living room.
"It's Lord Ban Gu!"
"When you come to Hanzhuang today, please don't blame me for not being able to welcome you from afar."
Zheng Kongqing said to Ban Gu.
"Shopkeeper Zheng is very polite."
"I have always heard that Zheng Bao Bank is one of the largest banks in the capital. When I saw it today, it is indeed well-deserved."
"But I, from a small family and a small business, really don't have a chance."
Ban Gu said with a smile.
"No, no, adults are joking."
"Come on, come on, backyard please!"
Zheng Kongqing couldn't guess Ban Gu's purpose, but with people coming and going in front of him, it was naturally not the place to talk, so he took Ban Gu all the way to the backyard.
"Shopkeeper Zheng, I know something about Zheng Bao Bank."
"If you come here today, you won't be hiding anything."
Ban Gu said, picking up the teacup and drinking.
Zheng Kongqing was so tactful. He listened to Ban Gu's half-sentence and pretended to understand.
"I have something to talk about, you all should get down!"
"No one is allowed to come into this backyard without my instructions."
Zheng Kongqing said to the servants waiting on the side.
