The dungeon fell into deathly silence in an instant.

The guards looked at each other.

Several guards were stunned for a moment, then they followed the wall, with their backs pressed against it, weapons in hand, and crawled horizontally upwards towards the dungeon entrance.

Their eyes were filled with fear and caution, and Wang Wu kept looking around.

Losing two companions in an instant would fill anyone with fear.

Suddenly, several guards saw a slightly thin black shadow flash before their eyes at an extremely fast speed and float towards the door of the dungeon.

In the blink of an eye, the guards stabbed the thin black shadow with their swords.

In a hurry, Shen Yuyao turned around and drew the soft sword in her hand to meet the enemy.

"when!"

The crisp sound of swords clashing.

With one sword, Shen Yuyao actually repelled all the swords that were stabbing at her.

"court death!"

Shen Yuyao snorted, and the guards then saw that the black shadow was actually a thin, masked woman.

The guards who were trembling with fear just now seemed to be energized all of a sudden.

It’s not a ghost, it’s a human!

Still a woman!

What is there to be afraid of?

The palace guards looked at each other and attacked at the same time in tacit understanding.

Hit with all your strength, without mercy.

The tunnel was narrow, and Shen Yuyao had to deal with several guards alone. Although she was not defeated, it was not easy for her to kill them quickly.

"Bang!"

"when!"

The flash of swords and the shadow of sabers.

Shen Yuyao was countering each other's moves and the two sides were in a stalemate when suddenly the entrance on the ground became brighter.

A guard holding a torch ran into the tunnel and shouted, "There's a fire in the Peony Garden. To prevent any mishaps, Your Majesty, the prisoner of poison must be killed without mercy!"

"The drug user in the prison will be killed without mercy!"

"The medicine man in the prison, Ge..."

Shen Yuyao was anxious. After blocking the nearest sword, she squatted down and a stone flew out quickly, hitting the man's throat.

"puff!"

The guard didn't even have time to see the situation inside the cave clearly.

Then he fell straight back.

There is one more on the road to the underworld!

The guards in the dungeon were obviously a little panicked. When the tip of one of the guards' sword stabbed at Shen Yuyao, it actually deviated by half an inch.

Reveal a flaw.

The next second, Shen Yuyao's sword pierced the guard's chest without hesitation.

“Puff!”

The sound of a long sword piercing the flesh of the chest.

"ah!"

With a scream of pain, the guard who was stabbed by the sword fell to the ground face up.

The remaining guards all looked miserable, and their attacks became increasingly chaotic.

"ah!"

"Um"

"puff!"

"puff!"

......

After a few muffled groans, Shen Yuyao looked around and found that there were no more guards standing in the dungeon.

She didn't have time to check, and with a "clang", the sword cut the chains of the dungeon.

As soon as Shen Yuyao entered the dungeon, she was hit by a foul smell that was extremely unpleasant.

Walking further in, the stench of decay mixed with the smell of human excrement made Shen Yuyao cry.

Hell on earth!

At this moment, Shen Yuyao felt very sorry for the women imprisoned in the dungeon.

How did they survive?

They are all pregnant women!

Because this place is even darker and damper than the imperial prison.

Shen Yuyao took the torch at the dungeon door and shone it inside.

The dungeon is a rectangular space divided into dozens of small cells by iron fences.

Each cell is roughly large enough to accommodate two people.

There was a straw bed in the cell, two filthy pottery bowls beside the bed, and a small wooden barrel at the foot of the bed.

Apart from this, there are no other items.

"Come out! Quickly!" Shen Yuyao went to each cell and first broke the chains, then called the women and asked them to come out quickly.

Shen Yuyao didn't have time to take a closer look. She had to get these women locked in the dungeon out as soon as possible!

She was afraid that if she delayed any longer, the personal soldiers and guards from the Prince of Qin's mansion would rush over upon hearing the news.

Shen Yuyao herself could escape easily, but she had no way of taking these women with her.

Fortunately, there was a fire in the Peony Garden at that time. I think the guards should have gone to help put out the fire first, so they didn't get to the dungeon in time.

"Hey, sisters, come out quickly." Shen Yuyao called out to the women again.

But almost without exception, they all looked at Shen Yuyao, then turned away and stopped looking at her.

His expression was very confused.

They all had dull eyes.

"Hey, I'm here to save you!"

"Come out with me, I'll take you home!" Shen Yuyao was a little anxious. These pregnant women seemed to be unable to hear her calls and continued to do their own thing, either sitting or lying down.

Shen Yuyao even began to wonder, were they ghosts? Or was she the ghost?

"Hey! Do you really not want your child to be born alive?"

Shen Yuyao cried and screamed desperately.

Among them, one or two women turned their heads to look at her, but their eyes were still empty and the muscles on their faces were trembling slightly.

Shen Yuyao walked to the cell of one of the women and ripped off the chains. "Big sister, do you want the baby in your belly to live?"

Shen Yuyao walked to the woman's side, took her hand and placed it on her protruding belly.

"Touch it, are you really not going to give him a chance to live?"

Shen Yuyao was a little angry at his lack of fighting spirit and felt sorry for his misfortune.

The woman was somewhat moved, and her eyes suddenly filled with tears.

"Think about it. If you trust me, I'll take you out." Shen Yuyao said softly, "Let's go to another place and start over!"

"Children will grow up, either pass the imperial examinations or serve as filial piety by your bedside."

"Don't you really want a day like this?"

"think!"

The woman suddenly nodded and answered loudly, tears streaming down her face, and finally there was some light in her eyes.

"Believe me, I will definitely help you escape!"

"Sisters, the one who harmed you was Qin Wangfu's concubine Deng. If you are willing to believe me, follow me and escape from Qin Wangfu!"

"I believe that Deng has already received the news. If you are willing to trust me, please follow me. If you really don't want to leave, please protect yourself."

"After escaping today, I will come to rescue you as soon as possible!"

After Shen Yuyao finished speaking, she walked towards the dungeon entrance without looking back.

The woman who agreed to go with him followed closely behind. After leaving the cage, she turned around and shouted, "Sisters, let's go. Give our child a chance to live."

One after another, some women seemed to have just come to their senses, and everyone rushed out of the cell.

As soon as she walked out of the dungeon entrance, Shen Yuyao released fireworks into the sky.

A few days ago, she contacted the Black Dragon Guards in Xijing. They had been lying in ambush around the Prince of Qin's Mansion for several days, waiting for Shen Yuyao to set off the fireworks.

Shen Yuyao led more than ten women and walked very slowly. The flames rising from the Peony Garden made the women even more frightened. One of them even turned around and walked towards the dungeon entrance.
