Just as the door of the cell with the secret passage was opened in the small shed, a burst of applause suddenly came from the quiet prison.
“Pah!! Pah!! Pah Pah Pah!!!”
Everyone's heart trembled, and they looked in the direction of the sound in panic.
Chen Yong walked out with a smile on his face amidst the horrified eyes of the crowd.
“Tsk tsk tsk~~”
"I didn't realize there were so many tricks up the shed."
Xiaopengzi's pupils trembled, the corners of his mouth twitched a few times, and he turned around and rushed into the cell, heading straight for the secret passage.
Shen Yong raised his eyebrows and flicked his hand lightly.
".....Uh~~~" Xiaopengzi's hand had just reached the entrance to the secret passage when his whole body stiffened and he fell to the ground without a movement.
Emperor Tianwu and his men, standing at the door of the cell, looked at the motionless little eunuch, trembling with fear, and looked at Shen Yong with horror.
Shen Yong chuckled and raised his chin towards the cell.
"Why, do you need me to send you back to the cell?!"
After saying this, Shen Yong glanced at the small shed indifferently.
Emperor Tianwu noticed Chen Yong's gaze, then glanced at the young eunuch. His heart trembled, and before his mind could move, his feet had already walked towards the cell where he was staying.
The eldest prince was stunned, looking at his father who walked back to the cell in disbelief, and cried out,
"Father, please don't!!!"
I finally have the chance to escape, how can I give up?
Shen Yong was just one person, and it was impossible for him to attack so many of them at the same time.
As long as they sacrifice a few people to hold Shen Yong back, they will have time to escape.
Emperor Tianwu paused slightly, pursed his lips, walked into the cell without looking back, walked to the corner, and sat on the ground with drooping eyelids.
No one imprisoned in the entire imperial prison knew how powerful Chen Yong was, but he knew.
The person who could rush to his front from dozens of meters away in the blink of an eye and knock him out instantly must have extraordinary martial arts skills.
These people's martial arts skills are just average. They might be able to fight a few moves against the guards, but fighting against Shen Yong... forget it.
The young eunuch fell down without even having time to say a word. If he didn't obey, he would be the next to fall.
As long as the green mountains remain, there will be no shortage of firewood. As long as he is alive, someone will come to save him.
The eldest prince looked at his father with a hint of disappointment in his eyes.
The Queen Mother and the Empress stood at the door of the cell, staring at Emperor Tianwu in a daze, not knowing where to go.
They wanted to escape through the secret passage, but... the little eunuch lying in the secret passage made them dare not take a single step beyond the limit.
The eldest prince took a deep breath, looked at the queen and said softly,
"Mother, protect me and your son, and hold back the traitor!"
".....I....I..." The queen's pupils trembled, and she looked at the eldest prince in shock.
Looking at her own son's determined eyes, and then looking at Emperor Tianwu's useless look, the queen made up her mind and nodded.
"Okay, hurry up!"
After saying that, the queen hurriedly turned around and glanced at Shen Yong who was still standing there.
She pursed her lips, flicked her sleeves, turned around, placed her trembling hands on her abdomen, took two steps towards the entrance of the secret passage, and used her wide robe to block her son.
“Chen…Chen Yong!”
"I believe I've been kind to the women of the Shen family. Isn't it a bit too much for you to humiliate me like this?!"
She was the one who basically received the female members of the Shen family when they came to the palace, and she had never made things difficult for them.
With so many generals in one family, she also admires the women of the Shen family.
The men in the family were always away fighting, which meant that the women in the Shen family had been left alone at home.
She could understand the pain of a woman living alone in an empty house after marriage. The long nights were hard to endure.
Although she is the mother of a country, the emperor only comes to her palace on the first and fifteenth day of every month.
There are many concubines and beauties in the palace. It is already considered good enough that the emperor can come to her palace on time for two days every month.
Chen Yong looked at the queen calmly, glanced at the eldest prince who was sneaking towards the secret passage behind her, and sneered.
"Yes, you have been very kind to the women of the Shen family. You gave them all sterilization drugs. Shouldn't the sisters-in-law thank you very much?"
Every sister-in-law was summoned by the Queen before her wedding, but he did not think this was a favor from the royal family to the Shen family.
Facts have also proved this point. The royal family members are used to doing superficial work, but they will use all kinds of dirty tricks behind the scenes.
The queen's face turned pale, her eyelids drooped in fear, and she moved her trembling lips twice in panic.
"What are you...saying? I don't understand."
"I have no grudges against the women of the Shen family. How could I possibly do such a thing to them? Don't make false accusations against me."
The queen seemed to believe it as she spoke, and she raised her eyelids and looked at Chen Yong calmly.
"I am also a mother, so I know how important a child is to a mother. Therefore, I would never do such a... immoral thing to a female member of the Shen family!"
Seeing Chen Yong's distrustful look, the Queen pursed her lips.
"Whether you believe it or not, I never did it and I won't admit it..."
When Emperor Tianwu heard Shen Yong mention "sterilization medicine", his heart skipped a beat and he didn't dare to raise his eyelids to look at Shen Yong.
He instructed the Queen to do this.
He had been married for so many years, but he only had one son, the eldest prince. The late emperor also had few offspring.
But the Shen family had sons one after another, and each of them showed a talent for martial arts since childhood. They knew all the military tactics and battle formations at a young age. How could he not be jealous?
Not only did he feel uncomfortable, but his father also felt uncomfortable, so...
Seeing the Shen family marrying one daughter-in-law after another but none of them giving birth to a child made him very happy.
But this was not enough. He also wanted to sterilize the men from the Shen family. However, the men from the Shen family were stationed at the border all year round, so he did not have the opportunity to drug them for that long.
This sterilization drug, which even the imperial physicians could not detect, would not be effective after taking it once. It had to be taken in small amounts over a long period of time.
Any girl who is engaged to the Shen family must have taken sterilization drugs for two years before the marriage to achieve such a good effect.
This cannot be blamed on him. If anyone should be blamed, it should be the Shen family rules, which forbid men from taking concubines. Otherwise, if a man from the Shen family took a concubine from another place, the children would have been scattered all over the place long ago.
"Heh!" Chen Yong sneered and glanced at Emperor Tianwu who had his eyelids drooping.
"Sure enough, there can't be two kinds of people sleeping in the same bed."
"You and Xuanyuan Xi are really the same type of people..."
Shen Yong was speaking when suddenly a slight sound of stones moving and rubbing came from the cell.
“Sizzle…”
The queen was so frightened that she opened her mouth and spoke loudly in an attempt to cover up the noise made by her own son.
“Shen Yong!!!”
"I will never admit to anything I haven't done!"
"Everything requires evidence, you..."
Just as the queen was speaking loudly, Shen Yong's figure flashed and he had already flashed to the door of the cell.
