Looking up at the gate of Sanssouci Palace, it was pitch black and seemed to be unattended. Moreover, it was also quiet inside, and there was no sound at all. Dong Cheng listened attentively for a while, his heart gradually beat faster, and a very bad premonition rose from his heart.

"Your Majesty, the minister has come here." Dong Cheng shouted, but there was no response for a long time, just when Dong Cheng was even more confused, something was thrown from the city, and it happened to stop at Dong Cheng's feet.

Dong Cheng's bad premonition in his heart was even stronger, and he personally leaned over to look at it with the lantern and found that it was a human head. The face of the human head is familiar, and it is the person who should come to greet him at this time.

"Seeds?" Dong Chengchao took a step back, and his face changed greatly. The lantern in his hand trembled, and the candle inside could barely stand.

The lights suddenly lit up at the head of the city, the armor was sonorous, and hundreds of figures poured out at once. Through the light of the fire at the head of the city, Dong Cheng saw clearly the face of one of the people who had not changed for thousands of years. And behind this person, there is also a face that turns all beings upside down, almost indistinguishable from male and female.

"Xi Zhicai, Cao Tai! Sure enough, it's you ........"

The entourage behind him raised his saber vigilantly, but Dong Cheng regained his composure in an instant. Xi Zhicai is a person with a deep taught, and Cao Tai is the leader of the next generation of the Cao family, since they appeared on the palace at this time, it means that they have been aware of Dong Cheng's plan. What Dong Cheng needs to know at this time is how much Xi Zhicai and Cao Tai know and how much they have prevented.

"General Dong didn't return to the house late at night to rest, and he missed the night to go to the palace and I don't know what happened?" Xi Zhicai asked condescendingly.

Dong Cheng's robe sleeves flicked, as if he was a heavy minister, and raised his head and shouted: "Xi Zhicai, why bother to behave." Today, I will give an edict to the thief and get rid of the traitor. You are waiting for the tiger to do something, and you will not descend early. ”

"This is really a coincidence, I also have an edict here, saying that General Dong, you gathered a crowd to rebel, and Xu Duwei was exterminated." Xi Zhicai unhurriedly took out a dark yellow bordered edict. "I don't know the armies in Beijing, which edict should prevail."

Dong Cheng sneered: "Please come to Your Majesty to make a judgment in court, don't you know?" ”

Dong Cheng is indeed fearless, even if the guards are controlled by the Cao family, among the entire Xu Capital, it is he Dong Cheng who has the greatest military strength. As long as Wang Fu captures the Cao family and rushes here, even if he has a thousand means, he can only bow down to His Majesty.

However, at this time, Cao Tai stood at the head of the city, looking not in a hurry, and asked Xi Zhicai intentionally or unintentionally: "Xigong Cao, you said that five hundred tigers and leopards are riding, how long does it take to deal with 1,500 miscellaneous soldiers?" ”

"Xi is not a person in the military, but if Weichen speculates, the time for two pillars of incense is enough." Xi Zhicai said seriously, his expression made people think that he was just telling a fact.

The minister also felt like this, and the journey of the general into the palace was also about two pillars of incense. Now it seems that the battle on Suzaku Street should be over......." Cao Tai said this softly, and glanced at Dong Cheng under the city with a smile.

Dong Cheng suddenly understood what these two people were talking about. However, his face remained motionless, waiting for the development of the situation - unfortunately, what he was powerless to stop was that his heart was beating more and more because of the conversation between the two.

At this moment, a rapid sound of horses' hooves came from a distance, and Dong Cheng quickly turned his head to look. The person who came rode was covered in blood.

"General Dong......" Wang Fu shouted on his horse, "There are still five hundred tigers and leopards in Xudu City!" ”

Dong Cheng's heartstrings suddenly collapsed, and he seemed to hear the voice of broken jade: the painstaking strategy of emptying Xu Du's soldiers and horses was still resolved by those traitorous ministers of the Cao clan out of nothing.

All the hopes of the Han family have been completely shattered!

Dong Cheng raised his head again, and his expression began to become distorted: "Xi Zhicai, Cao Tai, you traitors, you can't die well!" ”

The torches at the head of the city were swaying, and Xi Zhicai's expression looked erratic. Faced with Dong Cheng's curse, he did not answer, but stretched out his hand, threw the edict in his hand into the city, and said loudly: "Dong Cheng will do it." ”

Dong Cheng's shoulders trembled slightly, and from the moment he heard the news of the tiger and leopard riding, he knew that his plan had collapsed. But the dignity of being a general of the Han chariot cavalry did not allow him to lose his honor in front of the enemy. He leaned over and picked up the edict from the ground, unfolded it and read it, it was nothing more than some clichés, but what made him particularly shocked was that the seal on the cover was four inches in circumference, and there was actually His Majesty's private seal.

It is exactly the same as the seal in the edict of the cloth belt, not the slightest difference!

Could it be that the emperor has also been controlled by them? No, it's not that the emperor is controlled, it's that the emperor is already under their control........ Dong Cheng's mind is spinning rapidly.

Then, a sharp whistling sound crossed his ears, and Dong Cheng looked back in shock, and saw that the expressions of all the entourages behind him suddenly froze, and they all shot at least a few crossbow arrows on their bodies and died! Especially the Wang Fu who was taken care of was even more pierced by thousands of arrows, and before he died, Dong Cheng also saw the unwillingness and anger in his eyes that he had the intention to kill the enemy and was unable to return to the sky!

"Cao Tai!" Dong Cheng was suddenly furious, he felt the blood under his feet being drunk by the dried stone bricks, and couldn't help but roar hoarsely: "Who is it?" Tell me, who the hell is it?! ”

Xi Zhicai and Cao Tai naturally knew what Dong Cheng was asking. As a result, Cao Tai took a step forward and said: "It's really sad, until now, you don't know who died........

As soon as he said this, Xi Zhi turned his head and glared at Cao Tai, and the banter on Cao Tai's face disappeared immediately, and he glanced at Dong Cheng with pity and didn't speak again.

"Cao Tai, tell me, who betrayed us?" Dong Cheng stood at the bottom of the city, almost wanting to jump on the city and ask Cao Tai: "Even if you know our plan, it is impossible for you to know it in such detail. Among them, there must be a traitor who told you all the plans! ”

In the face of such a shocking change, Dong Cheng's eyes flashed the faces of countless people: Wu Shuo? Wu Zilan? Jiping? Yang Biao? .......No, none of this is possible, they don't have any reason to betray the Han family!

However, just when Dong Cheng was about to go crazy, an old man slowly appeared at the head of the city and said, "General Dong, it's the old man who is sorry for you." ”

"Yang Biao?!" Dong Cheng looked at the city in disbelief, he could hardly believe his eyes: Yang Biao had been acting as the behind-the-scenes planner in this plan. All the details that Dong Cheng couldn't worry about were handled by Yang Biao. It can be said that Yang Biao is the mastermind of this mutiny, and his role is far greater than that of Dong Cheng!

But it was this mastermind who completely gave up his body and torso and betrayed it to the Cao family!

"Why?" Dong Cheng yelled, at this time, he no longer had the demeanor of an important minister of the Han family, more like a beast whose mind was broken by anger.

"No why, just be an old man greedy for power." Yang Biao spoke slowly again, and then walked back behind the shadows.

After this sentence, Dong Cheng's expression suddenly froze, he looked at Yang Biao's back in a daze, and couldn't say a word - Yang Biao will be greedy for power? It's a big joke!

"Yang Biao, don't you even have the courage to answer me?!" Dong Cheng finally used all his strength to shout this.

However, in exchange, Cao Tai replied coldly: "Come on, catch the traitor, and go to prison!" ”

The city gate finally opened, but Dong Cheng couldn't take half a step, he was caught by Xu Duwei like a wolf and a tiger, like a walking corpse, only his mouth was muttering. At this time, Xu Duwei beside him, if he listens carefully, he can hear Dong Cheng saying: "Your Majesty, the old minister is incompetent........ I'm sorry for the Han family." ”

"Elder Yang, it's hard work, let you carry this black cauldron for me." At this time, the emperor of the Han Dynasty, in the dormitory, said to Yang Biao.

"As a Hanchen, you should be loyal to the Han family." For some reason, Yang Biao said these words leisurely. fell into Liu Xie's ears, and he couldn't tell whether it was sincere or sarcastic.
