Difficulty surviving at the hands of a tyrant

You Yihan's pupils shrank, and his chest rose and fell sharply.

The next moment, he turned his head abruptly, walked quickly in front of Qi Piao, grabbed Qi Piao's lapel, and said every word in a terrifying tone: "Say what you just said again."

Even if Qi Piao was prepared, he was still taken aback by You Yihan's aura.

He said with a trembling voice: "Empress, indeed you have come to the mine." He repeated it again, thought for a while, and said hesitantly, "Half of the empress' face has two extremely long scars?"

To be honest, he is still not very sure.

After all, the appearance of the man he saw at that time, to put it bluntly, even ordinary people would hate Tong Yu's face when they saw the scar on Tong Yu's face, let alone the emperor who is sitting on the world?

But he really didn't know how to repay the emperor.

The emperor not only agreed to let his younger brother leave the mine, but also let him go. With this kindness, he might not be able to finish his life.

So, he wanted to repay as much as possible.

Even if maybe he just guessed wrong.

But even if that person is not the empress, General Qi will never admit his mistake. Since General Qi fled with that person, it means that the possibility of that person is the queen is very high.

Just as he was thinking, he heard You Yihan's eager voice: "Where is he now?"

Qi Piao's eyes lit up: "Is it really the Empress?"

Immediately, his eyes dimmed, and he said guiltily in a low voice, "I don't know either."

Seeing You Yihan's face darken again, Qi Piao hurriedly said: "I really don't know, but I guess the empress should still be alive now. At that time, I heard the deputy steward saying that General Qi and the empress should be captured. Empress, as long as they are caught, the person who catches them can leave the mine."

Qi Piao couldn't help but blushed as he said that.

When he heard this at the time, his heart was also moved, thinking of capturing General Qi and the empress, and giving up the opportunity to his younger brother, in exchange for his younger brother's chance to leave the mine.

Thinking about it now, fortunately he hesitated and didn't do it at that time, if he really did, now he would be ashamed to see the emperor again.

"When the deputy steward said that General Qi was dead and even the body could not be found, I had some doubts. If General Qi was really dead, how could they not show General Qi's body, unless General Qi was not dead."

General Qi is not dead, which means that the empress is not dead.

Because from what he knew, since General Qi would desperately escape with the empress, even if he died, he would die in front of the empress.

Qi Piao expressed his guess.

When he finished speaking, he looked up and found You Yihan was walking out of the cave, Qi Piao chased after him and stopped You Yihan.

"The emperor can't!"

You Yihan looked at Qi Piao with a sullen face: "Get out of the way."

"Your majesty, do you want to ask Qi Piao to find out where the empress is?"

You Yihan didn't reply, but the expression on his face clearly meant that. Qi Piao said anxiously: "Your Majesty, you must not do this! This is a mine, not a capital city. If the deputy manager knows that you know about this , then he must know that he will not live long, so he will definitely take risks, although the guards you brought with you, the emperor, have martial arts, they are not as good as so many people in the mine."

A strong dragon can't overwhelm a local snake.

If you go over rashly and scare the snake, if you really offend the deputy steward, the consequences will be disastrous.

"The most important thing is that he is holding General Qi and the empress in his hands. The reason why he didn't kill him now is that you are here, the emperor. He dare not act rashly, but if you pick on him, he will make him anxious. He will kill the general and the empress." What about the empress?"

After Qi Piao said this, You Yihan also reacted.

He came here in a hurry this time, and the number of people he brought was really small. As Qi Piao said, if he really confronted the deputy steward head-on, he might not win. What should I do if I kill him?

You Yihan's expression changed several times, and finally returned to calm.

He looked at Qi Piao with a hint of approval in his eyes: "Then what can you do?"

He had already thought of the solution just now.

However, he still wanted to see if Qi Piao could do something about it.

Qi Piao saw that the emperor was moved by him and did not go to the deputy steward desperately, and a bright smile appeared on his not-so-clean face. He felt that the emperor in front of him was much better than the previous emperor, at least now the emperor, Will listen to other people's advice, not self-willed.

Of course, because the news about the mine was too closed, he still didn't know that You Yihan was actually a tyrant.

He nodded, and his expression became serious: "If my guess is right, the deputy manager should have been thinking about how to kill me quietly, no, it shouldn't be, it must be, he is afraid that I will tell you the news , so, he will definitely kill me first."

You Yihan's eyes flickered, and he couldn't help but think of what Qi Piao said to the deputy manager at that time, "If you don't let me tell, what happened before...".

That sentence should be what Qi Piao told him just now.

"But it never occurred to him, and I'll tell you now."

The reason why the deputy steward put Qi Piao and You Yihan here is because he knows that Qi Piao will definitely not say anything, because once he speaks out, the deputy steward will be considered dead, and then Qi Piao and his brother will only get closer together in the future. awful.

He decided that Qi Piao would not speak because of his younger brother.

Unexpectedly, You Yihan decided to let Qi Piao and his younger brother leave the mine because of a sympathy for his younger brother You Yiwei.

Just because You Yihan let Qi Piao go, Qi Piao no longer has to worry about the future, so he can speak out about it without hesitation.

Speaking of this, Qi Piao smiled slightly: "We can just use this to find out where General Qi and the empress are locked up."

You Yihan pondered: "Are you sure you can find out?"

If it was possible, it would be much simpler and faster than the plan he had in mind. He didn't want to wait for a moment now. He wanted to see Tong Yu as soon as possible, but he had to wait patiently.

"I try my best."

"Okay, then I'll leave it to you."

After the two of them finished talking, the deputy steward happened to bring two of his subordinates to bring the bedding.

The deputy steward looked flattering: "Doctor Lu, the bedding is here."

Physician Lu took a look, nodded, and made do with it. In a place like a mine, you can't ask too much.

"Then you are busy, the younger one will go down first."

After the deputy manager finished speaking, he ran to You Yihan again, flattered and complimented him, and then left. Before leaving, he glanced at Qi Piao next to You Yihan without a trace, his eyes flashed with murderous intent, which was fleeting.

It's dinner time.

"Your Majesty, there is nothing good about our mine, and the food we eat on weekdays is also very poor. This is already the best." The deputy steward said tremblingly.

You Yihan nodded, not looking at the deputy steward.

He was afraid that he would see the deputy steward's face, so he couldn't help it. He had endured it for several years in order to avenge his younger brother, but now he couldn't bear it even for a moment, and every moment felt like suffering.

Because Qi Piao didn't know why he fell into the eyes of the emperor, so You Yihan ordered three people to prepare.

Qi Piao looked at the dishes on the table, and then glanced at the deputy manager's obviously worried appearance. He guessed that the deputy manager would probably act tonight. Although he was surprised why the deputy manager acted so anxiously, he had already Talk to the emperor.

Therefore, he ate his meal calmly.

He sneered inwardly.

In order to kill him, he even dared to plot against the emperor. It seems that the deputy steward is really tired of his job!

Qi Piao thought that the deputy steward had put a drowsiness drug in the meal, and when the emperor fell asleep together, he took the opportunity to kill him, but long before that, the emperor had ordered Lu Taiyi to prepare the antidote and take it in advance.

So when Qi Piao was woken up, he was in a daze.

"Didn't you put any medicine in your meals?"

He took the antidote in advance, so even if the deputy manager put the medicine in the meal, he would be fine, but the deputy manager didn't know.

That being the case, the deputy steward must have thought that he was in a coma, and should have taken him out to kill him.

Instead of waking him up.

"Pre-drug?" The deputy manager raised his eyebrows, "I can't see that you are quite smart. Indeed, we thought so at the beginning, but later, I think there is a more suitable way. Since you are so smart, you should know me. What are you talking about?"

"any solution?"

"As long as you are willing to submit to me, when the emperor leaves, I will let you and your brother leave, and I will give you a sum of money that is enough for you to live on, how about it?"

If the deputy manager had told Qi Piao this way before You Yihan, Qi Piao would have agreed without even thinking about it.

However now...

Qi Piao looked at the deputy steward: "What do you want me to do?"

"It's simple, as long as you don't tell the emperor what you know, and try not to let the emperor notice anything while the emperor is still in the mine, it's fine."

"It's really simple." Qi Piao nodded, and the assistant manager thought that Qi Piao was going to agree, so he couldn't help curling his lips, but Qi Piao said again: "But I still have one condition."

"What conditions?"

"I want to see General Qi and the empress."

The deputy steward frowned, and then his face sank: "What do you think the two of them are doing?"

"If you don't agree, then I don't agree to you either."

Originally, Qi Piao just wanted to test the deputy steward, but the deputy steward just thought about it, nodded and said: "Okay, I promise you."

This was beyond Qi Piao's expectation.

But he didn't think much about it, and followed the deputy steward, turning around, and after two quarters of an hour, he saw Qi Heng and Tong Yu who were unconscious and seemed to be in a bad condition.

Qi Piao's eyes didn't stay on the two of them for too long, he was afraid that the deputy manager would notice something.

He looked at the deputy steward: "I promise you."

Unexpectedly, the deputy manager smiled slightly at this moment, "I suddenly remembered that there is something I forgot to tell you just now."

"what?"

"Your younger brother, the quilt covered with poison was poisoned by us. If you don't cooperate with us, or dare to betray us, your younger brother will not be wanted."

After the words fell, the deputy manager looked at Qi Piao's face instantly pale as he wished.
