The evil sister-in-law dressed as a yandere boss

Chapter 366: Just stand up when your legs are numb
Tao Zhen and Pei Zhan had almost no way to advance or retreat. They were back to back. Tao Zhen could feel the warmth on his back. He said softly: "I'll hold them back later, and you run away."

Tao Zhen put her hand into her bag and ignored his suggestion. She said, "When I count to three, we will run to the left."

Pei Zhan was stunned for a moment, but he also said yes. Although Tao Zhen was just a thin girl who was half a head shorter than him, Tao Zhen was always in charge when they got along. Pei Zhan might not have noticed it himself. , he has unconditional dependence and trust on Tao Zhen.

Tao Zhen said he would run on the count of three.

"One"

"two"

"run."

Tao Zhen threw a handful of things in his bag to the ground. At the same time, a sudden loud noise came. There was such a big movement in such a quiet and weird city. Several people who were following them were stunned. They were stunned by Tao Zhen. Zhen was so frightened that he didn't dare to move the things he threw down. By the time they came to their senses, Tao Zhen and Pei Zhan had already disappeared.

"Just...what the hell was that just now?"

Everyone smelled something and looked down at something on the ground, which looked like firecrackers, but they had never seen this kind of firecrackers before.

"Damn, they ran away. Brother, should we chase him?" one of them asked the scar-faced man.

Scarface said angrily: "Chase, you can't just let them run away with the meat pig you got. If you catch them, you can give your brothers extra food."

As soon as he finished speaking, he heard that familiar buzzing sound.

"No, the black bee is coming, run away."

Everyone had experience facing the black bees, and they all hid soon.

Tao Zhen and Pei Zhan ran for who knows how far. They were exhausted before they stopped.

"Were those firecrackers just now?" Pei Zhan asked.

Tao Zhen nodded: "Throw the cannon."

She asked a master who specialized in making fireworks and firecrackers to improve it. Unexpectedly, she succeeded in making it. She didn't need to use firecrackers and just threw it on the ground to scare people away unexpectedly.

It has no lethal effect and is simply used to escape.

The two of them rested for a while, took out the map and were about to look at it, when they heard a buzzing sound. Pei Zhan said, "Oh no, there was too much noise just now and it woke them up."

The two people ran away. After all, they were not familiar with the road and they were running for their lives. They quickly lost their way completely. They had no choice but to find a room to hide. Pei Zhan specially checked that there were no black bats and blocked the doors and windows. Then he breathed a sigh of relief.

Tao Zhen took out the map and looked at it. He drew a small circle on the map. It was very good. They took a long circle and didn't walk much. There was still a distance visible to the naked eye from Ninggu Pagoda. It seemed that today was the day. Can't get there.

The two of them had something to eat and sat down to rest. It took a long time and they got a little bored just sitting there. In fact, Pei Zhan really wanted to do something, but he was very image-conscious. He hadn't taken a shower in a long time and his beard was unkempt. They were all dirty, and he didn't want to leave any unpleasant memories for Tao Zhen.

"What do you think of Yan Mingxiu?" Tao Zhen suddenly spoke, interrupting Pei Zhan's chaotic thoughts.

Pei Zhan was stunned for a moment and said, "Which aspect are you referring to?"

Tao Zhen said: "I have always been curious about all aspects, why do you have to find him to cooperate? In fact, Yan Xilou is a good candidate."

Pei Zhan said: "Although Yan Xilou is the prince of Yanbei, he is far inferior to Yan Dongyuan. Yan Dongyuan has a high reputation in Yanbei. King Yanbei also values ​​him very much and has taken him with him since childhood."

Tao Zhen frowned: "You mean, Yan Dongyuan is the successor of King Yanbei? But isn't he a concubine?" Dashun attaches great importance to concubines. Even if Yan Xilou dies, the prince will still be Yan Xilou. Dongyuan is still a bastard, no matter how outstanding he is.

Pei Zhan said: "It's because he is a concubine."

Tao Zhen looked confused. She didn't quite understand what Pei Zhan meant.

Pei Zhan hesitated for a moment and then said: "Do you know why the emperor would feel comfortable letting high-ranking princes like King Yanbei come to fief the land?"

"Why?" This is what Tao Zhen has always wondered about.

No emperor would feel free to let someone like King Yanbei come back, not to mention that Yanbei was still an extremely important place to Dashun and their ancestral land.

Pei Zhan said: "Whether it's King Yanbei or King Yanmingxiu of Yucheng, they don't dare to rebel unless they don't want to live anymore."

Tao Zhen frowned: "What do you mean?"

Pei Zhan breathed a sigh of relief and said: "King Yanbei and all the princes have been poisoned. This kind of poison requires an antidote once a year, otherwise they will die suddenly, and only the emperor has the antidote." , and the direct sons of King Yanbei will also be fed this poison as soon as they are born. Their lives are firmly in the hands of the emperor, who dares to rebel?"

Tao Zhen frowned, feeling frightened when he heard this. At the same time, he admired the emperor's cleverness and ruthlessness. This really controlled the lifeblood of these princes and made them dare not disobey.

"Yan Mingxiu was also poisoned?" Tao Zhen asked.

Pei Zhan said helplessly: "Yan Mingxiu's situation is more complicated."

He couldn't tell, and then he asked, "Do you have any objections to Yan Mingxiu?"

Tao Zhen said: "I just think that an emotionally unstable person will make wrong decisions on impulse. He is not a good partner."

Of course Pei Zhan knows: "But he is the best partner I can think of at the moment."

Yanxi Tower is a cover and a target with no real power. The palace of Yanbei Palace is too deep, so he is obviously of no use to them. Yanxi Tower cannot make any big waves. Cooperating with him will only cause trouble. Yan Dongyuan will not kill him. He doesn't dare to kill Yan Xilou, but he will do it to him.

Tao Zhen had a different view. She said: "Because Yanxilou is in such a situation, if we help him and are kind to him, he will be grateful to us. Compared with the icing on the cake, the friendship that provides help in times of need is more valuable." .”

Pei Zhan also thought about this possibility.

Tao Zhen said: "If he is still alive this time, he can try it secretly. I don't think Yan Xilou is such a willing target."

She paused for a moment, looked at Pei Zhan in surprise, and did not continue the previous topic.

The two of them were quiet. They didn't spend much time together like this. In such a quiet environment, the other person's presence became particularly strong. Pei Zhan kept sitting. He didn't want Tao. What a shame. It's really embarrassing.

Tao Zhen was a little funny and pretended not to see the change in Mr. Pei. After all, in such a critical and serious environment, and the topics they talked about were so serious, she didn't understand how Mr. Pei woke up?
In order to save the face of Second Young Master Pei, Tao Zhen pretended not to notice, and then saw from the corner of his eye that he pretended to move his clothes inadvertently, but unfortunately it was not completely covered, and then he moved and changed his sitting position.

Tao Zhen held back a smile and asked, "Is it uncomfortable to sit?"

Pei Zhan was startled. He looked up and found Tao Zhen looking at the map. He tried his best to sound normal and said, "No, my legs are just a little numb."

Tao Zhen bit his lip and suppressed a smile: "If your legs are numb, just stand up and walk for a while."

Pei Zhan “…”
