Xiazhou, Beijing.
"how so?"
"Where are Yang Kang's men?"
"Even if their number is small, there are still 20,000 people. How can they be killed quietly?"
Cao Kang asked Cao De in confusion.
After all, in Cao Kang's opinion, the attacks of several groups of troops were very smooth.
It was even better than I had expected before. Why was there no news about the midfielder?
If Yang Kang in the middle can reply to them smoothly, then Cao Kang may not think much about it.
"Your Majesty, in my opinion, you don't need to think too much. Something must have happened. This time the attack was going very smoothly. Liu Xiu actually pressed Fan Hanzhong's troops to fight. This is abnormal in itself, although we don't want to believe it. , but it’s a fact!”
“We can’t take any chances at times like this.”
Cao De said to Cao Kang.
"Yeah, that makes sense."
"In this case, inform Liu Xiu and Wuyang's men to stop temporarily and not to rush in. In addition, send people to Nanxiang County as soon as possible to inquire about Yang Kang's movements."
Cao Kang thought for a while and said to Cao De.
"Yes, Your Majesty."
"But Your Majesty, the matter of your death has become more and more serious in the capital during this period. I'm worried that something will happen if this continues?"
Cao De asked Cao Kang.
During the recent period, Cao Kang not only suspended the court meeting, but also did not show up during the process.
The palace is also completely closed, and the young eunuchs have not left the palace for a long time.
Naturally, everyone in the capital was talking about it.
If Cao Kang dies, the blow to the newly established Dawei Dynasty will naturally be unprecedented.
"It doesn't matter!"
"What is supposed to come will come."
"I guess there will be many people who can't hold it anymore, right?"
"Let them come out on their own at this time. For us, there are only advantages and no disadvantages."
"Aren't they ready?"
Cao Kang asked Cao De.
"Yes, it's safe in terms of safety."
"Speaking of the actions of these people, our Prime Minister Ban Gu has started to be active recently."
"As for the emperor's affairs, he has come to inquire with me many times, but I have covered it up. If he takes any action, it will probably be in these few days."
Cao De nodded.
Regarding Cao Kang becoming emperor, although many people now submit to Cao Kang's men, many people are still very resistant to it.
"Um?"
"Ban Gu?"
"It's in vain that I still trust him so much, but he treats me like this. Since he is unkind, don't blame us."
Cao Kang sighed and said.
For Cao Kang, it seemed that he knew about the prime minister from the beginning.
"Go down."
Cao Kang waved to Cao De.
Cao De bowed and retreated.
…
Prime Minister's Mansion.
"Father, you can't be wrong!"
"Then Cao Kang must be dead. We have finally waited for this day!"
Ban Gu's son said to Ban Gu.
"Yes, I have finally waited for this day."
"But the current situation is very unfavorable to us. Yang Mo has proclaimed himself emperor again in Hezhou, which means that we can no longer use the banner of regaining Daxia."
"And if he proclaims himself emperor Dawei, you will know from looking at Cao Kang now that it will not make any sense."
Ban Gu sighed and said slowly.
"Then what do we do?"
"Such a good opportunity, could it be let go in vain?"
Ban Gu's son was very unwilling.
"Of course not. Now Cao Kang's men are fighting Zhang Bao's men. If we can take down Cao Kang's regime and order the army to stop attacking, it will be a great achievement for Zhang Bao's side. pieces."
"And the capital city of Hezhou is now well-built, which is exactly what we need to win."
"If we can use this to enter the political power of Hezhou, wouldn't it be better than the political power of Dawei?"
"You have to know that Zhang Bao still retains Yang Mo's throne. Why is this?"
"It shows that Zhang Bao still has the idea of supporting our Daxia, and I am also directly connected to Daxia. If something happens to Yang Mo, won't the throne fall on my head?"
Ban Gu stood up and said to his son.
"Father Shengming, I understand."
Ban Gu's son said excitedly.
"Tonight, everything will go according to plan. Don't say that Cao Kang is really dead. Even if he is not dead, we must kill him!"
"Remember, after our people rush into the palace, everyone will be killed. Don't be merciful!"
Ban Gu said coldly.
"yes!"
That night, near a small gate of the palace.
There are dozens of guards guarding here.
Since the palace has been under martial law, no one is allowed to enter or leave here.
Sudden.
Several black figures approached from the darkness. Before the team could react, countless random arrows were shot from the darkness.
The guards in front were hit by arrows and fell to the ground. Before the guards in the back could react, they were all killed by those who followed.
This group of people rushed into the palace from the small door.
These people were naturally all dead soldiers before Ban Gu. Normally, Ban Gu would arrange some identities among them and let them disperse in the capital.
Only now did Ban Gu gather them together and wanted to enter the palace to attack Cao Kang.
After these people entered the palace, they followed the map Ban Gu gave them and attacked the palace where Cao Kang was.
After fighting in, they found that there was no one inside.
Immediately afterwards, many people rushed over from outside.
Surrounded Ban Gu's men and horses.
"Kill, leave no one behind!"
Cao Kang said calmly.
actually.
Cao Kang already knew this when Ban Gu raised so many dead soldiers.
Not only did he know about it, but he also successfully captured several of them.
Therefore, Cao Kang knew almost everything about Ban Gu's situation.
Not a moment.
These dead soldiers were slaughtered by Cao Kang's troops.
"go!"
"There is no need to keep the people in the Prime Minister's Mansion."
Cao Kang waved his hand.
Since Ban Gu appeared on his own, it would be a good idea to use him to kill other people.
No matter whether you are dead or not, no matter who among them has their own ideas, it is best to just stay there honestly.
At this time, Ban Gu was also waiting anxiously in his mansion.
Tonight's matter, if it succeeds, it will skyrocket; if it fails, there will be no way out.
"Father!"
"problem occurs!"
"Run!"
While Ban Gu was walking back and forth, Ban Gu's son rushed back.
"What?!"
Seeing his son's appearance, Ban Gu's eyes darkened, and he naturally knew that everything was over.
In Ban Gu's shocked eyes.
A group of people came towards the Prime Minister's Mansion to kill.
