Difficulty surviving at the hands of a tyrant

"Yes, the existence of mines is irrational. We, Anguo, have internal and external troubles, and those who committed crimes should be sent to the battlefield, not to the mines!"

It was a very old veteran who spoke.

The fact that this old official survived during You Yihan's reign shows that he is very smart and good at judging the situation.

But now, in front of Tong Yu, he strongly expressed his opinion.

Tong Yu was thinking about what the minister said.

At this time, the minister said again: "Your Majesty, you are the only prince left by the late emperor in Jin, and Anguo can only rely on you."

Obviously, the minister never acknowledged You Yihan.

And this late emperor was also talking about Tong Yu's father.

"What's more, the mine is so devoid of conscience, is it possible that the emperor still wants another You Yihan from the mine?"

Tong Yu was taken aback.

"Let the mine produce another You Yihan? What do you mean?"

The minister was puzzled: "Don't the emperor know? Before You Yihan became the emperor, he stayed in the mine with his younger brother. At that time, the mine was darker than it is now, and people died almost every day. Every day, people transported to the mine came in waves. A wave still hasn't increased."

It is said that many people died because the stewards of the mine were too oppressive.

At that time, Concubine Chong's nephew was assigned the task of escorting the prisoner to the mine.

It just so happened that 'Chu Xun' was also interested in this mine at that time, so he followed it.

The two of them originally planned to go back directly after being escorted to the mine, but they didn't expect that the concubine's nephew saw You Yihan's younger brother.

In fact, at the beginning, the favorite concubine and nephew fell in love with You Yihan.

But for some reason, he changed his mind in the end and fell in love with You Yiwei. Later, his favorite concubine and nephew played You Yiwei to death, and You Yihan killed most of the people in the mine in grief.

The concubine's nephew and Chu Xun escaped unharmed and fled in a hurry.

Tong Yu was shocked.

He really didn't know that You Yihan was in the mine before.

That is to say, before becoming the emperor, You Yihan had been working hard in the mines. At that time, he and his younger brother, You Yiwei, depended on each other for life?

And then he saw the scene of You Yihan standing on the mountain of corpses.

It should be in the mine...

Tong Yu didn't know what to say for a moment.

At this time, the minister asked again.

"What does the emperor think?"

Tong Yu pursed her lips, and finally said in a low voice: "Wait a minute, I don't have any extra manpower to deal with the mine now. Once this side is stabilized, I will deal with the mine myself."

When the minister heard this, he accepted it.

He nodded and said: "Since that's the case, then I will step down first."

The minister retreated, Tong Yu thought about what the minister said just now, and was not calm for a long time.

In fact, he had heard that You Yihan lived in a horrible place before becoming emperor, but he never thought that this place was a mine.

The place of the mine...

The Tong family closed their eyes.

The mine brought back the two most frightening memories in his memory.

He was in the mine when he traveled through time, and was sent to the mine by You Yiwei later.

Mine should indeed disappear...

That kind of place really shouldn't exist.

But right now, the mine should not be considered.

Tong Yu opened her eyes and looked at the eunuch next to her.

"Please come in next."

"Yes."

At this moment, Qi Piao walked in with a solemn expression.

"Chen Guo sent envoys, and they said they want to see you."

After a pause, he continued, "They also said that they have the person you are looking for."

"Little plum!"

Tong Yu stood up abruptly.

"Where is he?"

"The people from Chen Guo were brought in by me."

He had already thought of this before, so he brought the people sent by Chen Guo into the palace without much hesitation.

"Let him in!"

Qi Piao hesitated.

"It's just that if you think about it, Chen Guo must not be so kind when he comes here at this time."

Tong Yu naturally knew.

It's just that he can't let Xiao Lizi be ignored by Chen Guo's people.

"Don't worry, I have a measure."

What else can Qi Piao do, anyway, he can't be persuaded.

So he withdrew and brought people in.

Seeing only one person he didn't know, Tong Yu frowned: "Where's Little Lizi?"

The people of Chen Guo saluted Tong Yu, and said calmly: "Don't worry, your majesty, your people are safe. I am here this time mainly to make a deal with you, your majesty."

"What deal?"

"Exchange the emperor's people for a city."

Seeing that Tong Yu's face sank instantly, the man said again: "Don't be angry, Your Majesty, listen to me, we want to exchange the little plum for Dingcheng of Anguo."

Dingcheng is the most marginal city in Anguo.

No, you can't even say the edge, because that place is very close to the border of Chen State, and far from Anguo.

That place was remote and barren, and it was already considered an empty city, with only a few Anguo soldiers guarding it.

But Chen Guo was still at peace with Anguo at that time, so Chen Guo did not take back that city.

Now, when Chen Guo put forward this condition, the inner meaning was that Chen Guo did not intend to make peace with Anguo.

In other words, Chen Guo is ready to attack Anguo.

Attacking Anguo at this time, Anguo really couldn't bear it.

Tong Yu's face sank.

After a while, he said in a deep voice, "Okay, I promise you."

Even if he refuses, Chen Guo will definitely attack Anguo, right?

What's more, if an attack starts, Chen Guo can easily take down Dingcheng. Now, it's just blatantly coming to fight.

It's a foregone conclusion, it's not a loss if you can exchange Xiao Lizi back.

The people of Chen Guo smiled slightly.

"The emperor's people are here..."

After saying the address, Chen Guodi left.

Qi Piao looked serious.

"If Chen Guo really attacks Anguo, Anguo may..."

Tong Yu sneered.

"It's not certain who wins or loses. If you want to take advantage of others, it depends on whether they have the ability!"

"But Xiao Pingzi and Chen Jue returned to Chen Guo. Chen Jue is the prince of Chen Guo. Based on their understanding of you..."

Before the words finished, Tong Yu sneered again.

"Don't worry, no one in this world can understand me."

The secret of his time travel has not been told to anyone.

No one knows him, and he won't tell anyone the secret.

Tong Yu arranged for someone to bring Xiao Lizi back.

But in just three months, the people of Chen Guo attacked.

Chen Guo was full of confidence, and thought that he would take Anguo down without any effort. After all, they felt that the newly appointed Emperor An Guo was not very capable, and Anguo was in a precarious situation, so they should easily take Anguo down.

However, to their surprise, the battle between Anguo and Chen Guo lasted for half a year.

In the past six months, every time Anguo seemed to be taken down by Chen Guo, he forced Anguo to stand up.

As for Anguo, who was almost taken down by Chen Guo from the very beginning, and now he easily resisted Chen Guo after struggling to support him, what he experienced during this process is probably only Tong Yu who has been by Qi Piao's side for the past six months. knew.

Qi Piao didn't like Tong Yu at all at first.

But in the subsequent battles, he changed his admiration for Tong Yu to the last.

Qi Piao excitedly said: "Your Majesty, Chen Guo has retreated!"

Tong Yu's brows were full of tiredness.

But after hearing Qi Piao's words, he still cheered up.

"Really? It shouldn't be long before Chen Guo sends someone to surrender."

"How do you know, Your Majesty? Chen Guo has already sent someone!"

The Tong family laughed.

"Otherwise? Are you still fighting with us Anguo? In the past six months, Chen Guo spent a lot of money, material and manpower in order to attack Anguo. It would be good if they defeated Anguo. Anguo has a vast land and resources, but they did not defeat it If they continue to attack, they will be the ones who will be defeated. At this time, in order to keep Chen Guo, they have no choice but to send people to surrender to us."

"Then I will let the people of Chen Guo go!"

Tong Yu frowned.

"What are you telling them to do?"

Qi Piao was taken aback.

"Chen Guo is at the end of its strength, shouldn't we take advantage of the victory and pursue it at this time?"

Tong Yu suddenly felt helpless.

"Can't you see that we, Anguo, are about the same? If we continue to attack, we will only lose both sides. Don't forget, there are other countries besides Anguo and Chen. By then, Anguo will be truly unbearable." With one blow, a small country can be defeated."

"Then what should we do?"

"Of course it was accepted."

"But……"

Qi Piao wanted to say something, because he was really unwilling.

At that time, Chen Guo took advantage of the danger and wanted to take the opportunity to annex Anguo. At that time, he hated Chen Guo especially, and he even wanted to crush Chen Guo.

But at that time he was worried that Anhui would be annexed by Chen Guo.

Unexpectedly, Anguo survived under Tong Yu's command. He was so excited that he wanted to take this opportunity to annex Chen Guo.

What Tong Yu said makes sense.

In the end, Qi Piao had no choice but to go out reluctantly and invite people from the Chen country to come in.

Tong Yu doesn't hate Chen Guo as much as Qi Piao.

The most important thing is that he doesn't have much energy to hate now.

Ever since he got into a fight with Chen Guo, he had never had a comforting sleep, but now that he saw Chen Guo's profile picture, he was relieved.

Two hours later, An Guo and Chen Guo re-established peace.

Chen Guo withdrew his troops.

After Tong Yu and the others rectified, they also returned to the capital.

Tong Yu returned to the palace and almost fell asleep.

He slept in the dark for two full days and two nights before waking up, which made Qi Piao think he was sick and was in a hurry.

Tong Yu woke up, ate, and was planning to think about the way forward.

After all, although Anguo resisted Chen Guo's attack, the current situation of Anguo is still not optimistic, especially because there are many refugees, and there are more and more refugees in the past six months.

At this moment, a eunuch hurried in.

"Your Majesty, Lord He asks to see you."

Mr. He is the minister who persuaded Tong Yu to abandon the mine half a year ago.

It's just that at that time, An'an was troubled by domestic and foreign troubles, Tong Yu had no choice but to temporarily assign Mr. He to manage the mine, and temporarily appease Mr. He.

"Let him in."

"twitter."

But after a while, Mr. He hurried in, with an anxious look on his face.

"Your Majesty, something is wrong!"
